fffridayFollowing rachelmanija's example from last week, here are some f/f origfics I've particularly enjoyed. Almost all of them were gifts for me - this is largely because I'm feeling lazy and only looking at my gifts page and my bookmarks.
Two with singers:
J'attendrai (1940s Resistance Fighter/Glamorous Wartime Singer) - a dark, bittersweet piece, heavy with mistrust, and beautifully written.
The sadness of having to wait, the sweetness of having someone to wait for...
The Mystery of the Polyglot Diva by categranger (Opera Singer/Opera Singer) - this is a hilarious and touching story told through online and social media.
When world-renowned soprano Emilia Porter surprises a fan by speaking fluent Russian, the celebrity rumor mill goes into overdrive. Gossip soon settles on her handsome co-star Sasha Lermontov, but there are a few surprises in store for the opera world…
And two with mermaids:
The Color of the Sea by prpl_pen (Artist/Mermaid) - a very sweet little story about a lighthouse keeper's niece and the mermaid who's never seen paint before.
An unusually curious and sociable mermaid finds fascination with art--or perhaps it's the artist herself she's most drawn to.
And this one wasn't written for me, but it was also written to the 'Artist/Mermaid' prompt, so it feels as if it was:
Seascape by MiriamKenneath - Short but breathtakingly good.
She was beautiful, and I liked to imagine she could see me there watching her from beneath the swells of the tides and that she yearned to join me. But she never came into the water.
