WIP?/WORD COUNT: Complete | 4444
MAIN CHARACTERS: Homer Simpson, Lisa Simpson

FIC SUMMARY: Homer observes Lisa as she becomes close to Patty's newest girlfriend.

RECCER'S NOTES:

This is gorgeous. Homer is so in character and his voice is spot on - it doesn't go too far into over the top stupid, but it points out his flaws as well, including the ones that have only gotten worse as time has gone on, gently steering him right again without changing him into someone else. His relationship with Lisa is really sweetly done, and Lisa is her bright, clever little self. This is just beautiful.

MAIN CHARACTERS: Terri Mackleberry, Sherri Mackleberry, Bart Simpson, Lisa Simpson

FIC SUMMARY: Sherri and Terri's bond is shaken as they find their way through their teenage years.

RECCER'S NOTES:

Okay so fair warning first: This fic does contain Terri/Bart, but I don't believe it's the main story being told here. Simpsons fic is rare, and Simpsons fic I find in character or believable is even rarer still. This is lovely. It builds on the canon and takes it in an unexpected but believable direction. I particularly love Bart and Lisa in this fic, even though it's a story primarily about Sherri and Terri - about the destruction of their relationship, what it's like to suddenly be without a half, and how to go about putting things right once you figure out who you are alone.
