Vidder: StarRose
Musical artist: Avenue Q cast recording
Pairing: various

Why this vid kicks ass:

Because this is one of those glorious cases where the vidder has seen a correspondence between lyrics, tone, and the specifics of the source material that rises to a pure and giddy genius.

You might suspect that there's a certain cracked-out quality to this one,and you'd be right to suspect that. At the same time, though, everyone remains bizarrely in-character. And trust me, you don't want to miss the lip-syncing.

Pairing: Relena/Heero
Length: 8,500 words

Why this must be read:

Because post-war GW? Can be /fun/. And Relena doesn't always have to be Little Miss Priss.

Basically, the boys meet up for their bi-annual night of debauchery beer and poker. Heero, as bodyguard to a threatened Relena, brings her along. Shenanigans (and some very cunning strip-poker techniques) ensue.

06:30 pm VID REC: Primeval - I Will Be
I apologise for the lateness of this, but I was asleep most of yesterday and today with the Headcold from Hell. It's still yesterday as far as my body's concerned ::g::

Vidder: justtracy77
Musical artist: Avril Lavigne
Pairing: Abby/Connor
Vidder on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] justtracy
Vidder's website: None
Why this vid kicks ass:

For me, one of the touchstones of the series is the often achy and twisty feelings between Connor and Abby, particularly on Connor's side of the equation. For all that I love the prehistoric creatures, it's the human face of the protagonists that keeps me tuning in.

Throughout both series to date, Connor's had an obvious crush on Abby, one that he finally admitted to her was deeper. Abby's feelings aren't as clear, and those feelings are complicated on both sides by their friendship and the fact that he finally gets a girlfriend in series 2.

And I love how this video sets out their relationship, with all of its twisty turns. It's helped by the fact that the clips are chosen perfectly, showcasing not only their romantic feelings but the strong foundations of their friendship, whether that's being there for one another or mocking each other mercilessly - the affection and the exasperation, the courage exhibited in saving each other, and the cowardice that comes with having to admit what they really feel.

And - like the series - it ends on the only note it can.

Why this must be read:  Kitty is among the best and well known angst writers in the American Idolslash fandom.  Each of her stories are superbly written.  "This Isn't How Love Goes" is no exception. It's one of the best angst driven Cooksro fics.  As with all great angst driven fics, it makes you feel for the characters involved.  It does deal with non-con so if this subject matter offends you, please don't read. Otherwise, enjoy the fic.

Summary for This Isn't How Love Goes : This isn't how their first time should've been. This isn't how his first time should be.
