Day 07 - A fic for a pairing with a lot of baggage.

Fandom Category: Twilight
Pairing: Bella Swan/Jacob Black
Fic Title: No Good Deed
Author: MeraNaamJoker
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8357521/1/No-Good-Deed
Rating/Warning(s): M/R. Warnings for language and sexual content
Genre: Breaking Dawn AU
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: Anyone familiar with Twilight knows that to say Bella and Jacob have a lot of baggage is an understatement. In this AU, Bella doesn't become a vampire--she divorces Edward and leaves the Cullens to raise her baby on her own after Edward tries to abort the pregnancy against her wishes. 8 years later, a posthumous letter from Edward comes to his daughter--now named Saisha--imploring her to convince Bella to reconcile with Jacob since his actions have caused the both of them so much pain. This is actually a really thoughtful story, with a much more mature and confident Bella--one who recognizes her mistakes, owns up to them, and is willing to tackle her issues with Jacob in a reasonable and adult fashion. Jacob, while understandably resentful at first, is similarly able to put aside his own anger and meet her halfway to work things out. Of course, things hardly go smoothly and the author doesn't just ignore the issue of imprinting, choosing to address and resolve it in a very interesting way.

Day 01 - A fic for your current favorite ship. (I had such a hard time with this one! I have so many ships I'm favoriting it was hard to choose, but since OUaT just started up again...)

Fandom Category: Once Upon a Time
Pairing: Snow White/Prince Charming
Fic Title: a century is all we need
Author: possibilist
Link: ff.net
Rating/Warning(s): T
Genre: Romance, Hurt/Comfort
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: This draws a beautiful parallel between the pairing in FTL and in our world and shows an AU if James and Snow had grown up together.

Fandom Category: The Mummy (movie series)
Pairing: Evelyn "Evie" Carnahan/Richard "Rick" O'Connell
Fic Title: Take that, Bembridge Scholars!
Author: Seren_ccd
Link: http://archiveofourown.org/collections/yuletide2011/works/297832
Rating/Warning(s): teen
Genre: post-movie, fluff/humor
WIP?: no

Why This Must Be Read: The world has been saved and there's really only one thing left to do. Evy writes a strongly worded letter to the Bembridge Scholars. Oh, she gets married, too. I adore Evie and this is great post-movie fic. I can perfectly hear her describing to the boys the strongly-worded letter she's going to write on the same day they've escaped near-death. The adorableness of Evie and Rick and Jonathan, the three of them, the humour, Evie's issues, and the fun of it all - and already racing off on a new adventure. It's a perfect fllow-up to the film.

Fandom Category: The Mummy
Pairing: Evelyn Carnahan/Rick O'Connell
Fic Title: Never Spellbound by a Starry Sky
Author: Eve
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/755171/1/
Rating/Warning(s): T
Genre: Post-Movie (the first one), action/adventure, humor
WIP?: no

Why This Must Be Read: Funny adventurous fic set shortly after the first movie, where the soon-to-be-married couple, along with Jonathon, get into yet more trouble. Written in alternating first-person POV, which I normally hate, but Eve captures the voices and dialogue so perfectly that it all flows together seamlessly. I also absolutely love the humor, and Rick is just so... entertaining in his grumblings. It's got some great shippy scenes in here. ;)
