Yuletide recs (part 3)
Dec. 29th, 2018 06:08 pm "Fair Jennet and Dear Jenny", Donkeyskin/Peau-d'Âne, Princess/Princess, General Audiences
"Sophomoric", Fangirl, Cath/Levi, Teen and Up Audiences
A sweet retelling of Donkeyskin from the point of view of the donkey. It's fairly light for a version of this particular tale—it glosses quickly over the beginning section with the king, then dwells a long time on the wandering princess's acclimatization to her new home.
"Sophomoric", Fangirl, Cath/Levi, Teen and Up Audiences
Another in the "meta" category, this fic has Cath signing up for Yuletide for the first time, in 2012 (a period in which my personal fan activity was largely limited to the Harry Potter Knit and Crochet House Cup, a ravelry group devoted to pretty much what it sounds like). The author does a nice job mixing epistolary/found objects with narrative sections.
