ladyiapetus | Good Fic Recc Week - 2006

And it's day 2 of Good Fic Recc week. I'd have done this sooner, but work gave me a headache. And it didn't get better helping my mom scan the second floor with the black light.

Anyhoo, today's fandom of choice is a fandom I got back into last year around the same time I got into Avatar. Ladies and gentlemen of the f-list, I give you Code Lyoko.

First up to bat is mirelle's wonderful post-Season 2 one-shot, A Last Dance. Taking place mere minutes after the events of The Key, Odd decides to go to the dance anyway and chooses Sissi as his partner. Mirelle's characterization is spot-on; it's such an...Odd thing to do.

cybra2003 is one of my favorite fic authors, no matter what she writes. That goes for her Lyoko fics as well. One of her best, IMO, is Switch. Switch is an AU in which Aelita and Jeremie's roles are reversed - Jeremie's the one stuck in Lyoko and Aelita is the computer genius behind the Lyoko team. The story flows just like a regular episode of CL would.

Also of mention is a humorous CL one-shot Cybra wrote entitled Wild Ride. The members of the Lyoko team (sans Aelita) are stuck in a car with a maniac driver, but you won't guess who the driver is (and I'm not telling ^_^).

Last but not least is a piece written by a fellow Diaries Guild member. Early Morning Confessions by

custom_magnum is another post-The Key piece that showcases the two girls of the Lyoko team. It touches on things that not a lot of CL fic authors include in their post-Season 2 fics, such as Aelita's true chronological age.

I look forward to seeing more CL fic from all of these authors.

Catch you tomorrow!
