WTF? - Gilmore Girls/SVU
Apr. 16th, 2006 09:18 pmOkay, not that I'm complaining (because I'm SO not), but could someone please explain where all of the Alex/Lorelai is coming from? I mean, I'm thankful because it's generating some truly wonderful fic, but...Alex/Lorelai?! I know there's a story in the birthplace of this odd pairing. But it is sort of perfect. I mean, of course, Alex would end up in Stars Hollow for Witness Protection. Wouldn't she?
No Frontiers by
rysler PG-13 and Behind the Drawn Shade (which is a wild look at their relationship that begins at a performance of Wicked in NYC) and Queen of Sheba which is very Adult. I read these because they were
rysler because my favorite writers can almost always convince me to try an odd pairing. I was completely surprised at what a good fit this crossover pairing is. It's quirky and odd with wry and clever humor and plenty of room for angst -- this is Alex in WP, running for her life after all.
The Curious Incident of the Chick at Easter-time by
wizened_cynic in
even_angels_ is Alex/Lorelai, PG-13? This fic does a wonderful job with the characterization and witty dialog. It reminds me of the strongest of SVU writing (not fanfic, the actual TV writing, specifically that ep with the murdered Tibetan woman and the foot fetishist -- w/Ilyana Douglas!) and the small amount of quirky GG that I've seen:
Sometimes I just want to hold your hand in public. That's all. I'm not asking for anything else. I know it's hard for you because you're from Iowa, and they don't have enough funding to teach people how to express their feelings in Iowa, since they spent all their money buying vowels for the name of their state.
See, Gilmore Girls, meets Alex in hiding. Brilliant!
Please let me know of any other Alex/Lorelai fic out there.
Also, I know I still owe a huge BSG mega-rec as well as a new SVU mega-rec and VMars. Soon...
eta Okay,
kennedyismyhero tells me that Alex/Lorelai springs from a conversation she had with
wizened_cynic in which they "talked about all the places SVU-Alex went while in Witness Protection, I suggested County General (ER) and somehow she got stuck on Stars Hollow. It mutated from there..."
Also, via
thatfangirl,
wizened_cynic has an entire site devoted to her Alex/Lorelai...'obsession' is a strong word, isn't it? We'll call in an 'enthusiasm'.
and
rysler points to another really wonderfully bittersweet and LOL funny
wizened_cynic A/L fic the truth, and cheesecake.
wizened_cynic makes the best of this pairing, finding a way to bring in Alex's sadness and loneliness in WP, while finding a ridiculously charming partner to lighten things up...and drive her completely insane.
rysleralso points out that I have the wrong link to "Queen of Sheba", so I've corrected that. I hope. Sorry...
