Lipsticks by Kate Bolin (PG-13) [text-only link]
     A Five Things for Cordelia.
Authorial Summary: No matter what life she leads, she still knows how to accessorize.

Sweet, Sour, and Sweet Again (The Monster at the End of this Book Remix) by Ari (Cordelia and Fred, 1040 words) [lj entry]
     I was hooked from the parenthetical and the opening confirmed that. I might actually say it gets better as it goes along, though. The voices are spot-on, and the levity and the impending doom are so perfectly balanced.

True Love by Executrix (Firefly crossover, River and Cordelia, 536 words)
     The title riffs on the first epigraph, and it is a light fic, but it is the more poignant, darker, aspects which so I so love.

And that mutual grooming thing that chimps do? Also good. If you see typos, broken links, or anything else that needs fixing on this site, please let me know. And always feel free to recommend me fanfic, books, whatever.
