Yuletide Recs (Yuletide Madness - ALL)

I finished my reading, yay! These are all from the poor neglected Madness collection.

New Tune, Same Fiddle - Fiddler on the Roof, Tevye gen, G, 985 words by Meltha - Fic set a few years after the events of the musical, written in the style of one of Tevye’s monologues/prayers and it. is. dead. on. Seriously, this could have been the show’s epilogue, that’s how good it is.

stake me out tonight - How to Get Away with Murder, Connor/Asher, T, 530 words by tricatular - These two losers being losers together. I love how all Asher fic mostly seems to ignore the premise of the show and sounds like it’s lifted from some sitcom fandom instead. It’s great.

His Soul to Keep - Miss Saigon, Tam gen, T, 665 words by Arsenic - Second year in a row I’m reccing a Tam futurefic. His life is so sad and I just want good things for him. (ETA: Arsenic also wrote the Tam fic I recced last year!)

Social Captial - Revenge, Nolan/Emily, G, 885 words by smilebackwards - I know from experience that these two are hard as hell to write, so I appreciate everyone who tries. And this one succeeds admirably! lol Emily immediately offering that the blood she’s covered in isn’t hers.

Yuletide Recs (T-Z)

Only have to read through the Madness collection now and I get an extra day for those reveals. :D

Momentary Lapse - Veep, Dan/Amy, T, 1200 words by Suaine - Dan and Amy don’t really hate each other that much. This has good use of both of them, but I especially liked Amy. This makes sense because I like Amy more than Dan in general.

If It’s Sewing, She Sews - West Side Story, Maria gen, G, 3100 words by Mithrigil - A sweet, sad little story about what Maria does after Tony and Bernardo’s deaths and how she goes forward and lives her life. Very moving story.

Meet Yourself Coming From the Other Direction - Wreck-It Ralph, Calhoun/Felix, G, 2700 words by Merlin Missy (mtgat) - Another Hero’s Duty machine is added to the arcade, and Calhoun introduces herself to herself. Fun (and affecting) little story about parallel universes in the video game world.

Maybe There’s a Word for It - Zoolander, Derek/Matilda/Hansel, M, 3800 words by Febricant - Derek doesn’t really mean to make a comeback, but he does. Featuring 10-year-old Derek, Jr., who has an even better Blue Steel than his father. So cute, so funny.

Will I finish my Yuletide recs before author reveals? Probably not. But I’ll try. Here’s N-S!

Yuletide Recs (H-M)

Guilt Scotch & Geese - How to Get Away with Murder, Gen, T, 2000 words by imperfectcircle and such_heights - The Keating Five gets drunk and people draw dicks on Asher’s face. Then Annalise is sweet! It’s everything I want in a HTGAWM fic.

Critical Mass - Mad Men, Peggy/Stan, T, 3300 words by SuburbanSun - Peggy has to bring someone to Christmas dinner and Stan volunteers. Stan is just hilarious and the fic is totally adorable.

They Take Their Shots (We’re Bulletproof) - The Mindy Project, Mindy/Danny, T, 7700 words by SuburbanSun - Adorable fic about five times Mindy and Danny were caught under the mistletoe and one time they weren’t. The voices are spot-on and the kissing is super sweet.

I guess this turned out to be the SuburbanSun rec post!

Yuletide Recs (Numbers, A-G)

I’ve been using the yuletide_recs collection on AO3 so if you’re following yulerecs, you might have already seen these. Just think of this as a handy aggregate!
