More, More Yuletide reviews
Jan. 3rd, 2009 12:15 amTen more and I still haven't finished my first pass. I ended in the Bs, so unless there turn out to be a ton of small A fandoms I know, the final first pass batch will probably be smaller.
Tension by
lucathia_rykatu 3/5
Bakuman. 1400 words. Mashiro and Takagi argue over the reason for the popularity of their most recent chapter in Jump, disagreeing about the 'tension' between the characters.
( Cute, though the writing could use some work. )
The Sandwich Story by
obfuscate3 4/5 Recommended
Calvin and Hobbes. 1300 words. Calvin grows up.
( Loved the ending. )
The Tiger Song by
rabidsamfan 3/5

Heaven by LMT 4/5 Recommended
Closer. 1500 words. Larry comes to the strip club again, looking for Alice.
( Great missing scene. )
Out of the Dark by
technosage 5/5 Recommended
Dr. Seuss. 1300 words. They shouldn't have been in the park that night. It came from out of the dark, into their lives, into their hearts.
( Damn, this is completely awesome. Dr. Seuss horror. )
I Am Not Clark, My Name Is Pete by
googlebrat 4/5 Recommended
Dr. Seuss. 1200 words. These children found me, in the park. They took me home. They called me Clark.

Frasier. 1300 words. Niles tries to communicate with Daphne using someone else's poetry.
( Good voices for all the characters. )
What Happened After by

The Dixie Chicks' "Goodbye Earl". 400 words. The police did find Earl eventually.

Strawberry Jam by
vampedvixen 3/5
The Dixie Chicks' "Goodbye Earl". 1800 words. The story of Wanda and Mary Anne.
( Fleshes out the song some, but doesn't add much )
Suddenly I See by
norah 3/5
So You Think You Can Dance. 6200 words. Being on the show is a journey, all right. But it's not just about dancing.
( Cute. No canon knowledge necessary. )
