memo to self: bookmarks. they do a reader good.

I read a lot of fic, okay. And 95% of the fic I read was posted on someone or other's delicious, or reclist, or what have you, because I don't tend to read a fic unless it or its author was recced somewhere at some point. I avoid a lot of bad this way.

The problem is, I almost never bookmark anything myself. And yet I love rereading good fic. So what often happens is I'll be like, "Man, I could really use a fic like [x] right now. In fact, I know [x] exists! Let me reread it!"

"...now where the hell did I find [x] in the first place?"

AND IT IS TRAGIC.

So. F-list. The likelihood is fairly high that I found [x] somewhere amongst your posts. I turn to you in despair. I am looking to reread two fics, for no particular reason other than I remembered them and really, really wanted to see them again. The first was a Merlin Arthur/Merlin AU, set in the US military. They were weather forecasters in the army. Something like that. It was LONG and EPIC and really quite good. Also Gwen was there and was awesome. And DADT was problematic. I'm going to trawl the vast reaches of crack_van for this, since that's where most of the Merlin fic I've read came from, but it's worth a shot.

The second was Inception, Arthur/Eames (my fandoms have too many Arthurs; there is also an Arthur character in the play I'm currently running, but I do not ship him with anyone). The last ten years were all a dream; Arthur is still nineteen and in the army. And trying to figure out if Eames actually exists in the real world. (Spoilers! He does.) It was a bit shmoopy for my usual tastes, but I really liked the idea of it. Also, Arthur finds Ariadne and she's like OH THANK GOD I THOUGHT I WAS GOING CRAZY, which was kind of adorable. There was also a convenience store in Thailand or possibly Vietnam, and a justifiably pissed off shopkeeper. THIS ALL MAKES SENSE IN CONTEXT, I SWEAR.

Help?
