The Nature of the Enemy by [livejournal.com profile] jedinemo (M)

Good afternoon, I'm [livejournal.com profile] pronker and I've spent so much time in a car lately that I just couldn't drive anything until today, but, you know, it's Friday so here goes. Before I turn the key, let's hear a great round of applause for this comm, because on September 20th, [livejournal.com profile] crack_van will be ten years old! Way to go!

Fandom: STAR WARS
Length: 1864 words
Characters: Leia Organa, Darth Vader
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] jedinemo
Author Website: FFN Profile
Why this must be read:

A New Hope's scene of Leia's torture on board the Death Star has sparked many a fanfic, fanart, and the imagination, whose ponderings have never been written down. [livejournal.com profile] jedinemo has written some down, and the result is an in-character, grueling story of Leia's strength and Vader's strength, too. Read it to find out why this rec does not say 'pairing: Leia/Vader', though perhaps it should. Strong, evocative prose and the gift for a stunning AU mark this author's work, all to the fandom's betterment.

The Nature of the Enemy

10 years?!

I hear you about that. I try to fix my old recs when I get a chance to drive the crack van, but I've got so many it's hard to know unless I get a comment...and remember to file the notification of the comment for future action.

But I am thankful so many people are using AO3 to store their stories.
