Summary: Bird AU. Erik is a lone kestrel on a mission to destroy the great golden eagle who killed his mother. Charles is an abandoned pet dove with no fear and a dream of making a place where the little birds can fly free. They don’t quite want the same thing, but together they’ll change the world.

Review:
For some reason I am eternally fascinated with bird AUs. I don't even like the feathery critters all that much in real life but something about how wholy different the lifes and situations are when the characters we know and love are changed into birds, entertains me thoroughly. Little Birds is a wonderful AU version of a X-Men: First Class fixit.

The characters are recognizable even though they are birds and the world they are living in is so well known since it's our everyday life. There are train stations, backyards, abandoned churches and beaches. The powers the characters have is recognizable with some of the birds but generally it's not about that. It's about the interpersonal (interbird) interactions and relationships.

I absolutely loved Little Birds from the first meeting between Erik the kestrel and Charles the dove, to their ragtag flock of sparrows, ravens, owls, kestrels and pidgeons at the end. This story had me smile the whole time while reading it.

Little Birds

And since I can't help myself with this one, another rec today:

Title: It's the whole damned world turned inside out, alright
Fandom: Parks and Recreation
Pairing: none
Categories: Apocafic
Length: Medium (10.709 words)
Warnings: Zombies

Author on LJ: wellthatdepends
Author Website: n/a

Summary: It was Leslie who cast the first blow (the history books will read: "it was Jerry's fault. Period.")

Review:
Everything's better with Zombies. In a game review show I heard them described as the chocolate sprinkles of story plots. And I have to agree in this case. This Apocafic is one of the best I've ever read. Even though the events are tragic, it tells about them in the usual Parks and Recreation fashion and you can't help but giggle and laugh about the escape of the P&R characters from a zombie outbreak.

The voices and the characterizations are so spot on, this might as well be an episode from the show. The cut scenes with the interviews are hillarious and as the story progresses we find out that the whole thing is Jerry's fault. ;)
