Self-pimpage meme!

Post a list of your top five favourite fics you've written, regardless of fandom or the reason you love them. This isn't about the best things you've written, but what you love most. Then tag five other people to do the same.

No one tagged me, but I wanna do this one. I tag everyone who's written five fics, hasn't been tagged and wants to do this meme :)

1. Devil's Deal , Smallville/DCU, long
This is still very recent, but I think that it might be the best fic I've written so far. It has passages where I let myself write as beautifully as I could and it has a simple but well-working plot, I like the characterization and I like the ending. It's a fic I'd love to read if someone else had written it.

2. I Am Here, Lord of the Flies, long
Yes, I wrote Lord of the Flies slash. This fic will always have a special place in my heart. It was the first fic I got a lot of feedback (at ff.net) for, and the first that was actually good. It was also my first long fic in English, and I can honestly say that writing this unlocked the English language for me. Summary: The children were never rescued and still live on the island four years after the plane crash. Ralph has gone mad during the hunt and is living as Jack's slave, while Jack struggles with growing up and being a good leader.

3. Foolish Man, Angel Sanctuary (Manga), short
Angel Sanctuary, as the title tells you, is a manga about angels. This fic could just as well be read as Religion fic, though, or original fic. It's about Lucifer, after he has defeated God. This is also a special story for me, because it's the only one my Mom has ever read - she found it while secretly looking at stuff on my PC and I was furious, because I was so embarrassed - but she loved it. She actually read it out loud in the kitchen to my Dad, even though they're divorced and his English is abysmal. The reason why this is so important: my Mom is a literary snob. She thinks TV shows are trash, manga are trash, Harry Potter is trash - but she liked this one. (God, I sound like I have horrible issues, don't I?)

4. In Essence Divided Harry Potter, novel-length
This is the first story where I had a good beta and the first that I didn't write as a ff.net teeny bopper (I had graduated to mugglenetfanfiction.com *lol*). It's the longest I've ever written, too. Oh, and I love this Tom Riddle :D

5. Protection, SV, long
Yeah, I love my long stories more than my short ones. It's about the amount of work that goes into them. I wrote this after a long spell of writer's block and depression and it was fun and fandom liked it :)

2. and 3. are unbetaed, and my English wasn't as good then, and it shows. Also, they're at the evil place - fanfiction.net :D

I really enjoyed to read Devil's Deal! I intend to recommend it to Japanese SV fangirls on my blog sometime after reread it. :)

I just finished reading "Devil's Deal" and to say I loved it would be putting it mildly. If I tried quoting the parts I liked best, this comment would be far to long, so I'll just summarize:

The history between Clark and Lex, as friends, as raging enemies, as tired and wary adversaries, the showdowns in the Oval Office... it gave such a sense of how much time has gone by for them, how much has happened.

The way Clark has been waiting for Lex to do something like this, so he can justify becoming part of Lex's life again, and how he was so happy, he couldn't let himself see what was really going on. That sex scene was just--wow.

The entire journey into hell--the descriptions, the wording, the pacing, all of it.

Kon! God, I *love* Kon, and I love fics where he reunites (so to speak) with Lex and Clark more than anything, and the characterizations, and the humor, and everything was just perfect!

And I *loved* the ending.

can I ask you a favor ?

2. I Am Here, Lord of the Flies, long

4. In Essence Divided Harry Potter, novel-length

could I have these two as word files, if you have them, so that I can print them out, and read them, when I have more time?
I rather prefer not to have to put them together from ff.net to one big file, but I would love to read them.

thanks!

Hi! :)

I just found Devil's Deal on SSA and I wanted you to know that I absolutely loved it! You took everything that I love about Clex and put it in one fic, which is pretty much amazing!

I'm not good at reviews and I couldn't sum up all the things I liked about Devil's Deal, but my favorite part is how you incorporated all of Clark and Lex's history from Smallville, comics and toonverse! (It happens so that I'm re-watching Superman TAS right now and really in the mood for toon!Clex.)

And of course, I just love Kon. ;)))

Thank you for such an enjoyable read!

Mind if I keep an eye on you? ^^
