Yuletide Recs (part one?)
Dec. 27th, 2013 06:05 pmGuys, I got the greatest Yuletide gifts this year! I have been gifted with not one, but TWO wonderful, meaty, LONG Halloweentown fics. I feel so spoiled, you don't even know. So I'm going to talk about them here, and then you should go read them, because they're wonderful and they deserve so much more love.
Trick RSVP Treat, Halloweentown, Marnie Piper/Luke, 12,090 words. When Luke accidentally proposes, he's stunned by Marnie's acceptance...and even more stunned by the work required to hold a Cromwell wedding.
Oh, this fic. It's so lovely, from the descriptions of Marnie and Luke's house to the wonderful characterization. It's told from Luke's POV, and captures perfectly exactly why it's always been Marnie for him. It's the fic I never knew I needed. Plus there's a delightful hint of Dylan/Ethan, and I'm never going to say no to that.
Mortal Jeopardy, Halloweentown, Ethan Dalloway/Dylan Piper, 10,786 words. Marnie's studying abroad, so this Halloween, it's up to Dylan and Ethan to save Halloweentown.
An adventure-filled and adorable romp through both Halloweentown, and Dylan's sad lack of a social life. Dylan/Ethan has always been kind of a back of the mind, 'what if' pairing for me when I happen to watch the third or fourth movies, but this fic has cemented them solidly in my mind as a fantastic idea. I love the idea, and the way they get together here is really fun. Plus there's a hint of Marnie/Aneesa (+Amazons!) femslash that I adore.
( And under the cut are recs for six more stories I've enjoyed in the archive. )
Those are my favorites out of what I've read so far. There may be more as I keep poring through the archive. I still have a lot of reading to do.
