fairest1, I got your package! Thank you so much!

Also, a reminder to all, February 1 marks the opening of [livejournal.com profile] halfamoon , which already has some great fic and vids posted:



Go celebrate the hot badass chicks.

I want to pimp out this grea Anya fic, which I didn't totally understand but which was incredibly awesome:

Chiaroscuro (Anya)

'The sunlight was reflected and redoubled in his eyes. He stared her down. With a slight smirk on his lips, he said, "A thing of beauty is a joy forever. Stay alive, Anyanka. Until next time."

He walked away whistling. The tune stayed stuck in her head for the better part of the next year. '

What is most impressive is not only the sense of time and history with the fic, but the author's fantastic precision of language.

Also, two Naruto recs:

Control


This is heartbreakingly plausible and a perfect example of Sakura and Naruto not being able to win for losing. And I don't really have an example to show how well written this is, because the whole fic is a series of little examples that build up to something heart-rendingly tragic.

*sigh* I wish. It's been a long time since I've read any good Kakashi/Sakura.

Nobody really got what they wanted in the end.
