GFRW 2006 - Day 6
Coming down to the end here, peeps. And today we venture into another non-animated fandom. Attention all personnel, incoming fic reccs! The fandom today: M*A*S*H.
First on the agenda is "Missing Hawk", by Mariole. "Missing Hawk" is an alternate ending to the episode "Where There's a Will". In it, Hawkeye is captured by the North Koreans when the aid station is overrun and is a POW. All in all, the good doctor Pierce goes through much worse than he did in "Goodbye, Farewell and Amen". But don't worry - there's a happy ending.
Next up are a few fics by Kay_Em2, one of the best M*A*S*H authors in the business. There's "Major Operations", which explains what Charles and Margaret may have been doing at the 8063rd M*A*S*H before "Yalu Brick Road". "What's Love Got to Do With It" and its sequel, "Friends Reunited" reintroduce the character of Ellie Carlisle (from the USO episodes) into Charles' life. Expect appearances from other familiar faces as well, including Trapper John. Charles Emerson Winchester III is an oft-focused on character in Kay's fics; another piece, "In Love and War", sets him up with one of Hawkeye's old flames - a socialite Korean woman named Kyung-Soon.
Third but not least, are some fics by another author by the name of Beth Mott. One of my favorites that she's written is titled "Expect the Unexpected" and takes place at the 4077th's 10 year-reunion. And the title is very appropriate! Like Mariole, Beth has also done the "rewrite episodes" bit, only in her case she rewrote three or four entire seasons! The end result is "You and Me and Baby Makes Three", a fic that changes the end of the episode "Yessir, That's Our Baby" so that the abandoned infant adopted by the camp isn't given to the monks, but instead adopted by Hawkeye and Margaret.
And finally, a one-shot fic entitled "Be Happy", by Laurel4. Set in the same universe as Beth Mott's "Expect the Unexpected", "Be Happy" winds up one last loose end from the 4077th's past.
That's it for tonight. Stay tuned for the final "episode" tomorrow.
