shallownessFic and fanvid recs - gen and het - in the following fandoms: Atlantis; Belle; Brooklyn Nine-Nine; Buffy the Vampire Slayer; Community; Edge of Tomorrow; ER; Gravity; The Hunger Games; Jupiter Ascending; The Lizzie Bennet Diaries and Lord of the Rings.
Atlantis
What men or gods are these: notparticularly
Gen Oracle-centric ficlet.
A vivid portrait of her, early in the show’s run.
Belle
Fair Play: hollimichele
A charming take on young Elizabeth’s response to the new cousin in her life.
Brooklyn Nine-Nine
The Unbearable Lightness of Being a Cop: amathela
Jake/Amy. Really enjoyed this. The right kind of daft humour you get on the show, and Amy's thought processes and interactions with Jake were dead to rights.
immediately, like, three people look at them like they're completely crazy. Which they are, she supposes; Peralta for making this stuff up in the first place, her for not having figured out how to get him to stop.
BTVS
Born to Kill: the dothatgirl
Vid - spoilers up to season 1 of Angel, canon-typical violence.
Gripping and intense study of Faith and violence.
Community
Time to Begin: atsp88
Vid - spoilers through season 3.
Described as 'OT7', this celebrates the study group. My smile kept growing as I watched it - I loved the cutting between different characters carrying out the same action in different contexts.
Edge of Tomorrow
Make the Girl Dance: cherryice
Loved the celebration of Rita, great song choice for the repetition, but loved the propulsion of this vid too.
ER
Observations on the Evolution of the Domestic Platypus: anxietygrrl
Neela/Ray (Established Relationship)
Written for my prompt 'post-series, a visitor from Chicago', this is set in the continuity of anxietygrrl's other fics, and although I don't think you strictly need to have read those to follow, you should because they're good. It's lovely, showing how the Roomies' intimacy has just grown over many married years at a surprising dinner.
Gravity
Nothing but time: hollywoodgrrl
A well-crafted vid that builds up to a great portrait of Ryan.
The Hunger Games
Dyin' Day: killabeez
The moments of tenderness and grace flicker all the more against the brutality, often just of decisions made. But there's so much more to this vid too.
Jupiter Ascending
My Cousin is Dating an Alien: angelan
Post-movie, outsider POV on Jupiter/Caine.
So charming. A really credible voice, and I loved the 'tween take on Jupiter's behaviour and family life, and his deductions.
The Lizzie Bennet Diaries
not practical but breakable: lulabo
Will/Lizzie, post ep 60(?), teen, longish.
This lives up to its premise: Will watches Lizzie's videos. and provides a well-thought-out Darcy perspective, with how Gigi influenced him and his hurt, attraction and response to learning what Lizzie thought. It contains a few typos too many.
LOTR
Woman King: tehlime
Beautiful vid, focusing on Arwen, Eowyn and Galadriel and their potential and power.
