The 'Roswell Elementary' Series by Kara and Emily
Fandom: ROSWELL
Pairing: Various
Author on LJ: unknown
Author Website: http://www.roswellunderground.com
Why this must be read:
This series was somewhat controversial during the Roswell Fandom heyday - not for the boundaries it pushed, or for the raunchiness, or anything like that. But for the way it represented the characters - not as fifteen year old teenagers, but as ten year old children. Growing up together, dealing with their growing alien powers, human children trying to reconcile the differences of those children.
Mostly it was cutesy, but it was interesting, too, and one of those things that everyone had an opinion on. It created its own terms (like 'foof' and 'dove'), and was, for better or worse, one of the essential parts of the Roswell Fannish Experience.
Just then, Maria spotted Alex Whitman. They had grown very close last year when they were in the same class, because Maria had been separated from Liz.
Now she wasn't sure what to do. Could she still be friends with Alex this year now that they were all in the same class? She hoped so. She really wanted Liz to like Alex. She wanted them all to be friends. She was always talking to Liz about how cool Alex was. He better not blow it!
