Yet more fucking recommendations!

[hackthis_archive]

I love recommending stories. I love finding stories TO recommend. I love being so fucking excited about something that I just want everybody to see/read it RIGHT. THE FUCK. NOW.

1. Texas Forever by topaz119. I. Uh. Jesus, man. I don't know what to say about this story. This is the story of Tim Riggins, full stop. Friday Night Lights will eventually reveal his past and his present, but this is his future in all its Technicolor glory, and it revels in all his relationships -- Tyra, Billy, Smash, Jason, you name it. God, this is a fucking awesome story.

2. Simply a reflection of your own self by sinsense, which is Landry and Tim/Landry and also? Landry. Because well, is there anybody watching FNL who doesn't love Landry? Exactly. sinsense has this sense about Landry that just makes you go, "Oh, Landry." So, just read this and thank me later.

3. She Likes a Prizefight by somniesperus, which is The Devil Wears Prada movie-verse Miranda/Andy, and let me tell you, I had no idea how Telanu was going to make this work, but this story doesn't just work -- it fucking SINGS. The writing is stellar, and I was just so sad when it was over because there was no more to read.

4. Curtains Are Monogamous by sheldrake. This is anthropomorphic fic, and what that is, for anybody who doesn't know, is when you assign human characteristics to otherwise non-sentient or non-human objects. So there's a nice group of people who write Mac/PC fic or stories about spoons and forks. This story is about, uh, the curtains. Just read it. It was the last story I read last week and it totally gave me warm fuzzies.

5. People living in the_guesthouse, astolat made an Entourage video. Yes, I know. Try not to wet yourself. Six days until our show is back. Oh, Ari I've missed your filthy mouth. I know you nearly plotzed when George offered a $1,000,000 to the person who could prove he was out slandering David O Russell.

6. Some random chick named hackthis wrote Angela Petrelli with a healthy side-dose of Nathan/Peter, self-delusion, and mothering gone awry. What's Love Got to Do With It?. Heroes. Rated PG for one bad word and several mindfucks.


*Special thanks to musesfool and thefourthvine for having such brilliant rec sites for trawling and such awesome taste.

*smooches*

Glad you find the recs useful.

You are AWESOME. Thank you :)

People keep writing/reccing FNL fic and I want to reeead it and cannot because I've only seen the first two eps. *angsts*

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

You must rectify this situation at ONCE I tell you. At ONCE. It's the best show nobody's watching.

[offtheceiling.livejournal.com]

Dude, I am all over it. I just watched those two over the weekend and now I want to sit down and mainline the whole rest of the season straight. Because, yes.

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

EXACTLY.

I heard a rumor that some random chick named hackthis had written George-Clooney-is-president fic, and that some random chick named linaerys might enjoy it. Is that rumor fact? If so, is such fic easy for you to link? I looked around on your website and didn't see it.

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Oh, you must be talking about Clooney in 2008 (http://hackthis.livejournal.com/tag/clooney+in+2008). Oh, yes, precious. It's a tagged thing (start at the bottom).

I have been rather remiss in updating my website.

[linaerys.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I am looking forward to reading this.

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

I hope you enjoy it :)

OH MY GOODNESS CURTAINS SHOULDN'T BE THAT ADORABLE.

I think I've exceeded my daily allowance of cut for today and the rest of forever now, kthxbai.

I want to hug the fic now...

So yeah, saw that Prada fic before and thought huh, nah. But read it on your rec and oh my god, it's amazing. I'm in a bit of a rut of less-than-stellar fics right now (and they're all long long long, so at some point you have to wonder am I reading this bc I like it or bc I've come this far and might as well finish?), and it's nice to get a reminder, like *this* is what fic is supposed to be. Loved the Tim/Landry, was actually going to rec it to you but figured you'd see it.

Oh! ALso meant to ask what you thought of last week's FNL. Heart in my throat is not an exaggeration.
