Links: the shameless self-promotion thread

[harriet-spy.livejournal.com]

Given fandom's conflicted attitude towards self-promotion, I imagine many of us are a little too self-conscious to post links to our own women-centric work here. This is the post for you to do so without shame. It's getting near the end of the party, and it would be a pity if other people didn't get to read your stories/watch your vids/contemplate your thinkiness about women characters because of a few piddling social norms, wouldn't it? Just post a link or three in the comments, maybe tell us a little about what you did and why. No one will judge you.



Doctor Who (Martha Jones)

Southwood Plantation Road (right-click and save)
Summary: Dr. Who: a romantic comedy where nothing stays buried.

...Because Ten is not so much a bad boyfriend as an insane boyfriend, and Martha is living in a screwball comedy with zombies.



Whew. That wasn't so hard. Who wants to go next?

Aftersting (http://bofoddity.livejournal.com/4722.html)
Spider-Man movies, Peter Parker/MJ Watson, PG-13
Peter was not invulnerable.

Written before the third movie, this story is probably outdated, but it's about how it's like to be a girlfriend to a superhero, and a more sympathetic look at the movie version of Mary-Jane.

Moment of Ease (http://bofoddity.livejournal.com/25842.html)
Star Wars, Kit Fisto/Aayla Secura, PG-13.
Kit and Aayla ignore ghosts for one night.

Just a little Jedi-sexuality.

Madonna (http://community.livejournal.com/het_challenge/76428.html#cutid1)
Silent Hill 4, Henry/Cynthia, PG-13.
After she got out of the hospital, Cynthia began to wear white more often.

Cynthia was a minor character in the game who was murdered as part of a ritual, representing "temptation". In this story, I switched places between her and the main female character, who represented "mother", and saw what happened.

Sometimes I Hear My Voice (http://community.livejournal.com/femgenficathon/41461.html#cutid1)
Final Fantasy VII, Tifa Lockhart, PG-13.
After Nibelheim, Tifa learns to live again.

A femgenficathon fic about a female character who, after destruction of her hometown and loss of everybody she knew, has to learn to live again. I've explored the same idea in a set of ficlets (http://community.livejournal.com/fanfic100/2446545.html#cutid1) as well.

Three Incidents In Which Cloud Isn't The Hero (http://community.livejournal.com/femslash05/4665.html)
Final Fantasy VII, Tifa Lockhart/Aeris Gainsborough, PG-13.
Three ways Tifa and Aeris could have met.

A set of AU scenarios where the main male character of the game isn't present at all.

I also have some female-centric ficlets in my smallville (http://bofoddity.livejournal.com/tag/smallville)- and rome (http://bofoddity.livejournal.com/tag/rome)-tags.
