[Vorkosigan]

Title: The Emperor’s Curve
Author: Yuletide Fairy yuletidefairy
Summary: A Barrayaran Political Science Thesis.
Characters: Gregor Vorbarra, Cordelia Vorkosigan
Rating: PG

Why?

This wasn't written for me, but it could as well have been. A defining moment of Gregor's upbringing, that proves a wonderful hindsight into Gregor's relationship with Cordelia.

[James Bond]

Title: Power of Persuasion
Author: Moofoot ramblinwanderer
Summary: If there's one thing Bond can't stand, it's not knowing all the answers, and that's the one thing that Villiers is betting on most.
Pairing: James Bond/Villiers
Rating: PG-13

Why?

I don't know what's up with the amount of Villiers fic we've got this year, but I approve wholeheartedly. We don't see enough of him in the movie to get a good grip of his character, but I really, really like this interpretation.

I also like a lot Bond's characterisation: a bit uncertain, a lot immature, but growing up and learning.

[Twelfth Night]

Title: The First Twelve
Author: thingswithwings
Summary: Viola and Orsino work things out. With additional appearances by Feste, Olivia, and, of course, Cesario.
Pairing: Orsino/Viola
Rating: NC-17

Why?

Orsino and Viola both realise that Cesario is much easier to deal with. Hilariously funny.
