09:19 am And Our Future's Looking Bright by amathela (NC-17)
Fandom: WIZARDS OF WAVERLY PLACE
Pairing: Justin/Alex
Length: 8.116 words
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] amathela
Author Website: none
Why this must be read:

My new rec is a fill of a prompt at [livejournal.com profile] omgjustinalex and I can only say... I want more like these fills.

The story shows us an Alex, who visits Justin to meet college boys but finds something complete different. For example... A Justin who goes to partys or a Justin with friends who have a totally wrong idea of her and Justins relationship... or not?

There are various reasons why I love the fic but the main reason is [livejournal.com profile] amathela's Alex. She is cheeky, self-centered but still unsure of herself and her relationship with her brother. It's Canon!Alex with only a hint of nice Fanon!Alex.

The interactions between Alex and Justin's friends are short but still have a major impact on her because they help to push her thoughts and insights into the direction which everyone saw... except herself.

So... if you love slight cases of denial or relationships where everyone knows the truth except the pair then you should read this fic.

And Our Future's Looking Bright (LJ)
--> There are, like, three thousand colleges in the country, and Justin still picks one right in New York City.

09:30 am "Change the World" by MiraMira (G)
Fandom: Musical Theater / In The Heights
Pairing: Benny/Nina
Length: ~500 words
Author on LJ: Unknown
Author Website: At AO3

Why this must be read: How could you listen to a song like "Sunrise" or "When You're Home" and not hope these two crazy kids can find a way to make it work? It's true Benny and Nina have a few things working against them--not the least of which is the considerable physical separation of Washington Heights and Palo Alto--but MiraMira makes you believe they'll go the distance (literally and otherwise).

Everyone says long-distance relationships don't last. Apparently no one told them that Nina Rosario is going to change the world. )

09:58 am When No One is Around You, Say Baby I Love You by moonythestrals (G)
Fandom: INCEPTION
Pairing: None - Arthur & Eames friendship/bromance
Length: ~ 4500 words
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] moonythestrals
Author Website: Master List of Fic on LJ
Why this must be read: One of the things I like about Inception is that the film doesn't feel the need to give you every detail. For most of the characters we're only ever given one name. We know minimal details about their backgrounds and relationships, which allows fic writers an almost endless array of possibilities with which to play.

So naturally, when names aren't given (like Eames' first name), the urge is there to fill in the blanks, a task harder than it would appear. Writer [livejournal.com profile] fahye put it like this: "the fact that I couldn't make one work suggests that it is in fact so terrible that it would require professional extraction for him to own up to it."

Even Ariadne and Yusuf are curious, and set out to find the answer to the ultimate question: "What's Eames' first name?" Of course, as these things go, everyone soon gets roped into the game as Ariadne and Yusuf employ increasingly devious (and ethically questionable) methods of discovery.

'You really don't know?' [Ariadne] turns to ask Cobb. 'But you've known him for years!' )
