Top Five Meme

[amberfocus]

Okay, today is going very slowly, so thought I'd procrastinate participate in the Top Five Meme that's going around right now. Stolen from who_in_whoville and kilodalton.

Give me a top five topic that is fandom-related, personal, random, whatever, and I'll list my top 5 for whatever you listed and will explain my choices. Top five of right now or top five of all time! For example, top 5 books, top 5 otps, top 5 colors, anything!

Since I'm leaving this entry unlocked, comments will be screened until I answer them.

Wonderful answers. I love geology. Bruce Canyon in southern Utah almost appears alien in its beauty. Cannon Beach, Oregon is my favorite seaside community.

Oh dear, now I am very curious to know your favie fics. Care to spill? I have a night to kill, and no desire whatsoever to write.

Oh, okay.

1. Never Quite Normal by Pairadox_Timeline (which is really jessalrynn and olfactory_ventriliquism writing together): http://www.whofic.com/viewstory.php?sid=29448&warning=Adult A wonderful human Nine/Rose AU story.

2. The Silver Dollar Paradigm by ladychi: http://www.whofic.com/viewstory.php?sid=30376 A haunting Ten/Rose ghost story set in the deep south.

3. 18 Seconds to Make Old Things New Again by amberwind: http://www.whofic.com/viewstory.php?sid=12965 --The first, and still one of the best, DW fanfics I've ever read. It's wonderfully Timey Whimey and adventury.

4. Reunion, in the Key of Crack by azriona: http://www.whofic.com/viewstory.php?sid=24612 Did I ever mention she writes the best crack ever? I love this because it takes and makes fun of the Doctor/Rose reunion, by poking at the things we best like writing about in this fandom. And not just for the shout out, either.

5. Belonging by never_more_cat: http://never-more-fics.livejournal.com/2428.html --It's Ten/Jack/Ianto. I don't read slash. This one I had to do a review of for the Children of Time Awards a few years ago. The writing was amazing. The depth and the emotion of it was incredible and the characterization was spot on. The author has a genuine gift.

Dang, I can't spell tonight. Five edits later...
