Crossovers

There Are Worse Ways To Go by mahoni
Sam has a vision about the death of an FBI agent named Mulder. Yes. Like that. *Awesome*.

Harry Potter

Four Conversations That Could Have Saved the World (And One That Did) by isis_uf
Exactly what it says on the tin. The first and last especially made me sniffly. This is Sirius saying it doesn’t matter what you’ve done, you’re my brother and of course I love you and please don’t die even if he only says it through weak insults.

The Hero of His Own Life by cesario
Stunning history of Albus Dumbledore, showing how he became the man he did. Beautifully written, and rings with truth and sharp, insightful characterization.

Truck Driving with the Dead by kennahijja
Isn't it weird how joy can have you almost come apart just when things are at their most perfect? Absolutely stunning story in which Harry learns some things about Ron, long after the fact. Exquisitely heartbreaking. Have tissues handy.

Pirates of the Caribbean

The Swan In Flight and Outlaws and Inlaws by artaxastra
The first is a lovely glimpse of Elizabeth as the Pirate King, and Captain Teague as her Aristotle. The second follows Elizabeth's pregnancy and her reunion with Jack.

Nine Pieces of Eight by penknife
Absolutely stunning. Nine conversations with Calypso. The voices and characterizations are all dead on, and it's just perfect.

turn your sail (never say we die) by Fayhe
Utterly FABulous story of what happens after the end of AWE (ignoring the screenwriters' comments about the curse). Beautifully written (second person POV that works), wistful and joyful, with a really nice Will characterization.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer

25 occasions people have celebrated in the Jossverse by minnow1212
25 amazing snapshots. Beautiful and heartbreaking. 9. On Joyce Summers’ birthday, Dawn calls Buffy or Buffy calls Dawn, no matter where they are. They never call on the day of her death.

MASH
The Next 48 Hours by xylodemon
a story about two guys just trying to make it through the next two days Relentless, heartbreaking, true to both Trapper and Hawkeye (and everyone else in the 4077). Really well done.

Sports Night
About Last Night by Scrunchy
*dies laughing* Hangover fic and excellent Sorkinese. Hilarious and awesome. Dan throws up a button.

Spin Another Line by torchthisnow
Sports Night finally goes dark after ten years on the air, and Casey's not sure what to do with himself. Danny's got an idea, though. Wistful and adorable. The kind of ending I'd like for them, even though I am not a Dan/Casey shipper.

untitled dan/casey by villainny
Absolutely adorable Dan/Casey with spot on character voices and evil vending machines!

The Devil Wears Prada

Nice Girls Don't by Telanu
Long story in which Andy's relationship with Miranda unfolds in leisurely, hot, believable fashion. Andy's not as nice, in the end, as she thought she was.

Press Release by hayseed_42
Adorably funny story in which the press speculates about Miranda's love life.
