Star Wars, Rogue One, Sherlock, Merlin

1. Eclipse by SpellCleaver. "Luke and Leia, the twin children of Darth Vader and heirs to the Emperor himself, defect. When they do, it's naturally a dream come true for the Rebellion and the mother they never knew, one that's been a long time in the making." An epic length story with many a character appearance. What I particularly loved about this was that it's a gen story with an intense relationship between siblings rather than a romantic one.
   
   
2. A late-night Welcome Home. by SleepyKalena. Fanart for Rogue One: "For context, this was a play on the Japanese dub of the Welcome Home scene. Jyn tells Cassian, "I'm always all alone when things go bad, so this feels strange." Cassian responds with "You'll get used to it soon," implying that he'll keep being there for her when things go bad, and that it won't be long until the feeling stops being foreign to her.".
   
   
3. John Watson || Soldier by OneAllysa. I am not generally fond of dialogue in vids but this one uses the bits quite effectively to portray Sherlock's partner as the complicated individual he is, and not always a nice guy either. I like how it also reveals how it's sometimes John who establishes what will happen and how he is not always the caretaker.
   
   
4. Art: Hope is the thing with feathers by
   LFB72. A series of works for this Merlin wingfic. Aside from the striking animated Merlin, there are various beautiful watercolour images including Morgana, Aithusa, and a final close up of Merlin and Arthur, bare chested and winged.
   
   
5. for we are a woven thread; find the strand
   by shadowsong26. "The night before Obi-Wan was to leave for Utapau, he and Anakin and Padme agreed that, regardless of the Council's orders, Anakin should go as well. They split up over the course of the battle--and when Order 66 is given, they cannot find one another in the chaos; Padme, on Coruscant, is left with the knowledge that neither of them is coming back." It's rather amusing that a threesome pairing spends the entirety of the story separated until the end. But it's an enjoyable read about three people getting on with things, finding support among others, and then having their continued purpose bring their threads together once again.
