Rounding up some efforts from recent fic memes. :)


downton abbey | cora/robert | as you both shall live

( She steps, quite new, into his old world. )

angel | wes/cordy | starstruck

( 'I do say!' Wesley scowls ... )

doctor who | river & eleven | my hero

( She's still young, when he gets to her. )

angel | cordy | five people cordelia chase never fell in love with

( 1. Spike. What exactly is so dreamy about vampires? It's not like they have a steady job -- unless lurking counts, which, wow, that's a real go-getter occupation -- which means that you're not getting any presents, unless some guy's torn out ribcage counts. )

btvs | buffy/spike | some love small enough

( 'Are you watching me sleep??' )

Title: Oh, and when will our heartbeats fall into line?
Pairings: Wesley/Lilah, Wesley/Fred, Fred/Gunn
Spoilers: Set during seasons 3 & 4
Word Count: 3,160
Rating: PG-13
Summary: It’s not always about holding hands.

Author’s Note: Hopefully, this will mark the end of my ardent Angel fangirling! I just had to get all my feelings out, and here’s hopin’ the rest will be silence. (Especially since I am having a hard time pushing myself through early season 5. No Hyperion, no apocalypse, no Lilah, no Cordy, Angel’s hair is dreadful, Fred’s outfits are way too skimpy to be work appropriate! Too much with the changes!) Anyway, I was struck by how non-annoyed I was by this hot mess love quadrangle in season four. Having watched Lost, I know exactly how abysmal that business can get, which is: abysmal beyond comprehension. But here! While, yes, at parts I let out anguished cries of “Wesley, Fred, stop it, stop it, stop being jerks!” on occasion, I think all the relationships have different compelling qualities, and it makes sense why all of the characters are drawn to their significant others/ex-significant others/objects-of-piney-affection/stalkers-with-noble-intentions, etc. So I had some fun examining that.

This hops around a whole bunch chronologically, and often throws you in the middle of specific scenes, so it will probably be a little disorienting. My apologies in advance!


( Oh, and when will your hand find itself in mine? )
