yuletide recs, part three

[lotesse]

The Jade Fan, Mulan. Adventures!

Honor To Us All Mulan. Girls dressed as boys do tend to tangled up others' sexual orientations a bit.

Kitchen Magic, Enchanted Forest Chronicles. If there were a fourth book with only Morwen, Telemain, highly technical jargon, and cats in it, it would look exactly like this.

Metamorphosis, RosnGuil. This is smart, and epiphanic, and touching, and melancholy. And I love it. I wish this sequence of scenes had ended the play; they're brilliant.

Sleeping Beauty, Howl's Moving Castle. Sophie's asleep, and Howl has to manage without her for a while.

Goes Marching, To Kill a Mockingbird. Scout goes marching to Montgomery. I can't say anything of this story, other than that it's perfect, and made me cry hard.

Silver Bells and Cockle Shells, Secret Garden. Lovely, evocative Mary/Dickon.

The Seconde Tale of the Wyf of Bathe, Chaucer. The Wyf's a slasher :)

The Teethmarks of Time, His Dark Materials. Will, trying to go on. Beautiful and sad.

When I moved in you, Stage Beauty. Mmm, genderqueer hetsex.

Unspoken, the Name for Home, Earthsea. Ged, Tenar, Tehanu, Heather.

As Long Ago As Forever, There Lived a Prince, Earthsea. The bit where Arren goes back to Ged, and truly understands.
