Merlin, Queer as Folk, Multifandom

[yourlibrarian]

1. Open-Mouthed into the Ocean
   by stymphalides. "Years after Merlin and Morgana fled Camelot together, they receive a surprise visitor who promises change." A play in one act in a single room, wonderfully paced and which earns its slow and not entirely certain resolution.


2. I Feel the Earth Move [Fanvid] by periru3, Tafadhali. Enormously fun disaster movie tribute (with a very apropos title sequence!)


3. Vid: Stand By You by thingswithwings. "Male privilege is a shield; you can choose what you use the shield for." Sometimes you have to see the future to get there.


4. Should Have Known Better by wrensandroses. I haven't seen a Queer as Folk vid for a long time, but I quite liked this one. For one thing it focuses on Brian's arc rather than his relationship with Justin, which I appreciated because I've seen such a bunch of ship vids for them in the past. And secondly, I think it does a good job of mining critical issues he confronts during the series.


5. He's Safe Here by mayalunas. I really like BYOFP gifsets, which are (sometimes animated) fanfumetti. I thought this Merlin one worked really well as a slice of a larger story.
