Fandom: Young Dracula
Pairing: N/A

Why this must be read:

This is a really believable follow up to the series two finale, very in keeping with the tone of the show. The portrayal of Robin and Vlad's friendship is particularly sweet. Excerpt ~

Looking over to where Robin stood, the Count said somewhat reluctantly, "Vlad is right. You may not be such a hopeless breather after all."

"Was that a compliment?" Robin asked, looking to Vlad.

"It's a close as he gets."

Why this must be read:

This is part of an ongoing series of ficlets which can be read alone, or together. In this one Vlad gets upset and tells Robin to prove he isn't afraid of his best friend's new vampire status. It's my favourite in the series because it really captures the teen angst aspect of this pairing: can my crush ever like me back?

Why this must be read:

There are surprisingly few Will / Ingrid stories about but, of those there are, this one really shines. You really get a feeling for how difficult it must be for Ingrid, having to navigate a path between wanting to be the perfect vampire, yet still being accosted by human emotion.

Fandom: Young Dracula
Pairing: N/A

Why this must be read:

This one is quite unusual for the fandom in that it is written first person. It's told from Robin's point of view, telling the story of how he tries to fill in the missing gaps in his memory after the end of series two. It's a really unique take on how things might have panned out after Vlad wears the crown - including a bit of Will!back story - and explores the themes of growing up, moving on, and leaving childhood behind.

Hello all! I'm [livejournal.com profile] ssquirrel_fic and this month I'll be reccing for Young Dracula. I may be a massive Robin / Vlad fangirl, but I'm going to do my best to rec as wide a range of fic as I can. :D

Fandom: Young Dracula
Pairing: Robin / Vlad
Length: c. 1,900

Why this must be read:

I want to start with this one because, in many ways, it sums up what the show is about - growing up and learning to get on with your embarrassing family! Mr. Branagh arranges a family trip to the seaside, Vlad comes along for the ride. It's well written, funny, and will undoubtedly leave you with a smile on your face.

Excerpt: (On realising Mrs. Branagh has packed speedo instead of swimming trunks.)

"How could you do this to me Mum!" Robin wailed.

"They're fine, Robin. You'll look very confident, and Continental."
