Picspam: The Awesome Ladies of El Cazador de la Bruja

[springinstep.livejournal.com]

What this anime boils down to is your classic amnesia story with some elements of magic thrown in. And it takes a few episodes for it to really get going. But what I love about the series is the bond which develops between the two protagonists - Nadie and Ellis. It breaks my heart in a good way and that's what ultimately keeps me coming back.

Warning: Image heavy.

Yuletide fic rec, plus rec invitation

[harriet-spy.livejournal.com]

Normally, I like to do a little halfamoon roundup of recs for Yuletide stories featuring the ladies, but I didn't get to do much Yuletide reading this year, so I'm just reccing the story I received:

ElspethVimes, Where it is You Want to Go (Duplicity (2009), Claire Stenwick)
Summary: A look at the beginning of Claire Stenwick's career.

Duplicity was a seriously underappreciated caper film of last year featuring a bravura performance by Julia Roberts, an actress whose charms I'm normally pretty resistant to. She's a hard-headed corporate security specialist and aspiring con artist who manages to pull off a hot hot romance with would-be partner Clive Owen without losing her edge. She puts together and takes apart the "Julia Roberts persona" over and over again until you can't tell where her performance ends and her self begins--it's an amazingly self-aware bit of acting.

Anyway, this story is a little glimpse into her as she's first learning how to fashion herself. Very convincing.

It would be great if other people could also rec appropriate Yuletide 2009 stories in the comments. As you all know, stories in rare fandoms are hard enough to find, but stories in rare fandoms featuring the ladies...

Gargoyles Drabble: Expectation

[nancybrown.livejournal.com]

Title: Expectation
Author: nancybrown
Fandom: Gargoyles
Characters: Beth, Elisa
Rating: PG
Summary: Drabble. Beth's in town and is staying with her sister.
A/N: Written for halfamoon. (A personal *facepalm* that the first one of these to surpass a G rating is the one written for the Disney cartoon.)

A rec: If you're looking for a series with multiple strong female characters in a variety of roles, you could do a lot worse than check out this show. I think Elisa Maza is the best female character Disney ever produced.
