Dork Heaven, Hell, and Circumstance by lalejandra (NC-17)
Fandom: THE O.C.
Pairing: Anna/Summer/Seth, Anna/Ryan
Author on LJ:
lalejandra
Author Website: None that I know of
Why this must be read: Because lalejandra makes Anna into a real girl, because the sex is scorching hot, because wouldn’t you have trouble choosing between Seth and Ryan?
Hello, I’m Pouncer and I’ll be your O.C. driver for May. Ryan is my favorite character, because I love seeing him suffer and I adore his fashion sense (see icon), but I adore the rest of Newport’s residents as well. My recommendations will include slash, het, and gen, so you should hopefully find something to your taste along the way.
This series starts off with Anna and Summer conspiring to give Seth the Best Christmas Present Ever, then moves on to Anna’s dilemma as she realizes Seth might not be the one she wants. Lalejandra imbues Anna with an outsider’s observational skills and make her into a girl who notices and ponders the reality of the teenagers who surround her. The writing has humor and insight and sadness and heat in just the right places.
An excerpt, after Anna has broached the topic of what to give Seth for Christmas:
"No. I was thinking that we should --"
"No comics," interrupted Summer firmly.
"No, no comics," agreed Anna. "Us."
"Us?"
"Yes. Us. Together. For his Christmas gift."
"Us. Together. Like, together together, or just. Together?" Summer raised her eyebrows.
"Like, together." Anna raised her eyebrows back at Summer.
"Sure." Summer shrugged. "He'll die and go to dork heaven."
