FIC LINK: You Always Liked Apples Best

RATING/WARNING(S): T
WIP?/WORD COUNT: Complete; 3173
MAIN CHARACTERS: Luna Lovegood

FIC SUMMARY: Luna discovers a new creature in the forests of India.

RECCER'S NOTES: This fic is such a gem <3 there's nothing quite like a well-written Luna Lovegood fic. The author has done a lovely job at ageing her up and making her older & wiser without taking away all those things that are innately Luna. I love the future Rebbe has given her and the situation she wrote her into, it's all just beautiful and perfect and the Luna-est thing ever.

FIC LINK: Looking for Answers (From the Great Beyond)
AUTHOR LINK: [archiveofourown.org profile] nerdwegian
RATING/WARNING(S): Teen
WIP?/WORD COUNT: Complete | 12,620
MAIN CHARACTERS: Steve Rogers, Natasha Romanov, Tony Stark, Clint Barton, Bruce Banner, Nick Fury

FIC SUMMARY: After the Battle of New York is over, and Loki and the tesseract are returned to Asgard, Steve takes a road trip across the country, and tries to figure out what he wants to do next.

RECCER'S NOTES:

This fic grabs hold of the shot at the end of the Avengers movie, with Steve on his motorcycle, and balloons it into a brilliant fic with Steve catching up on everything he's missed and taking some time out for himself, trying to figure out what his purpose should be.

There is just so much good here - Steve discovering food, and music, and places. It's a happy fic with underlying currents of angst (because you can't have a Steve Rogers fic without a bit of angst, right?) and his purpose and his aimlessness just mix wonderfully. It's really, really well done, and it leaves me with the warm and fuzzies and a great feeling of satisfaction.

There is also some fantastic fan art by [livejournal.com profile] _afterism scattered throughout.

FIC LINK: Elegy
AUTHOR LINK: [livejournal.com profile] turkeyish
RATING/WARNING(S): G, spoilers for all books for both series
WIP?/WORD COUNT: Complete, ~1500
MAIN CHARACTERS: Helga Hufflepuff, Godric Gryffindor, Rowena Ravenclaw, Salazar Slytherin; Lucy Pevensie, Peter Pevensie, Susan Pevensie, Edmund Pevensie

FIC SUMMARY: Nobody ever knows the entire story.

RECCER'S NOTES: This is such a lovely fic. This particular crossover idea could have been very heavy-handed with linking the two canons, but the author does a fantastic job of tying them together in a way that feels natural and perfect. This fic makes me so happy <3
