Title: How To Save A Life
Author: Troll Princess
Fandom: Supernatural
Pairings: Sam/Jess
Genre: Character Study
Length:  Short (Words: 3,000)

Author's Summary:
Four times at college that Sam was a Winchester, whether he liked it or not.

Review:
Remember when Jo said she tried college but she was always "the weird girl with the knife collection" there?  This is four times Sam felt the same way, mostly when he was too capable in a crisis but couldn't bring himself to fake it.  It's Sam constantly coming up against just how incredibly different his life experience was from that of his friends and I think that's really interesting.  I like that its not your typical Supernatural fic and I like that its a story about figuring out who you are, especially when you're not sure who you want to be.

Title: Fairy Stories (Or, Three Men Susan Never Really Loved)
Author: [livejournal.com profile] animus_wyrmis [livejournal.com profile] animus_wyrmis 
Fandom: Narnia
Pairings: Mentions of Susan/Rabadash, Susan/Caspian, Susan/Geeky Kid (all unrequited)
Genre: Family/Friendship
Length:  Medium (Words: ~8k)

Author's Summary:
At St Finbarr’s, Susan tells the girls fairy stories before bed, and Lucy remembers how they really went. Susan/Rabadash, Susan/Caspian, Susan/Geeky Kid.

Review:
I like how this fic deals with the twisted chronology of the girls' lives and how it affects their growing up (even though I'm not sure it all adds up the same throughout the fic since sometimes it's "like a dream of a dream" and sometimes the girls recall very detailed stories).  Still, I like how this fic portrays the differences between Susan and Lucy and shows their relationship.  It's well written and I think the girls' voices are spot on for the movie!verse.
