ficlet recs (SGA, AtS)

Hero Gets the Girl by [livejournal.com profile] bironic (SGA)
Rodney/Buffy fantasy, Rodney/Jennifer; PG-13; 425 words
Summary: What? It was no secret he had a type. (Flashficlet for two prompts at Battle IX: Buffy/Rodney, sarcasm; Jennifer/Rodney, hero.)

I really liked this. Cute, in-character, neat use of the prompts.

Bathing in Jordan by [personal profile] alixtii (AtS)
Cordelia/Kate; post-NFA; PG-13; 917 words
Summary: Sometimes baptism isn't a one-time deal.
Really good character voices. I only wish this fic was a couple thousand words longer but even so it's an intriguing scenario that made my brain spin and imagine the stories to come. (it also appears to be part of a larger series, which I haven't checked out yet.)

My favorite feature of the AO3 is the tagging system, hands down, because now it's possible to find the rarer stuff with just a mouseclick. I was always begriping the lack of fic about Kate Lockley, arguably one of the most interesting characters on the show (ymmv but please not in my LJ), but now... well, there's still not a lot but at least it will be much easier to find. I'm really hoping a lot of people will make use of the archive and upload their older work so the AO3 can unfold its full... awesomeness potential. :o)
