Nep Nep Nep Nepenthe!

Rec-time! My choice tonight is... NEPENTHE. It's Celebrate Nep Day!

Nepenthe, otherwise known as [livejournal.com profile] si_ta, constantly amazes me by how deeply into her projects she gets. The way she gets so happy about her Sims HP characters turning out just right, or the hard work and attention she puts into her fic drafts. She is soooo sweet. On top of that, she writes (beautifully, I might add) very intriguing fic. Her interpretation of Luna Lovegood is always spot-on, and she is probably the only person I know right now who understands that character completely.

So. The Nepenthe-list.

(and yeah, read the disclaimers above the stories themselves.)

First up, Just Another Recollection

Chapters ONE TWO THREE FOUR

H/D, rated PG-13 to NC-17

Draco gets a rather rude awakening... again... and again... and again. Based on 50 First Dates. This fic is so wonderful in that though everything may not always come up roses, there certainly are other flowers to be had. I love the sad dwelling attachment of Harry, and the resigned compassion of Draco. Such a bittersweet fic... just perfect.

...

Two ficlets:

All of It, H/D, rated G

Sleepless, H/D, rated PG

What I like about these two is the simplicity. Just little scenes out of a bigger picture, but with all the background of that longer story. Nep manages to pack a lot of emotion into each. You may feel the need to hug Draco at the end of these, and comfort Harry.

...

And now, my favorite of Nep's fics...

Classic Stigma (WIP)

Chapters ONE TWO THREE

H/D, rated PG-13

The war is over and Harry can live at last. But some secrets never quite fade away, and one of them may be more than Draco can handle. OMG this fic is stunning! Harry is so outwardly strong and inwardly fragile. His battle with himself is beautifully rendered. Draco acts on impulse and with loving intentions, yet he is wonderfully imperfect. And Luna. Oh god, LUNA. Marvelous. AND I BELIEVE THIS WAS NEP'S FIRST HP FIC! I adore it. Worth several re-reads.

...

And there you have it: the Nepenthe-List! Keep an eye on her journal for her future chapters and fics, because she is definitely one to watch. It's Celebrate Nepenthe Day on Ru's lj!
