Word Count: 2034
Warnings:
implied/referenced character death
Summary:
Nani and Lilo once again have  to deal with losing family.
Why I Rec This Fic:
Super sad but beautiful with a wonderful handling of Nani and Lilos relationship (the awkwardness of emotions (especially grief but also love), the bickering and returning jokes.

She shrugs and reaches forward to fiddle with the radio, static crackling until she finds a clear station. Elvis Presley croons and both of them go silent for a moment. Lilo’s hand is frozen hovering by the dial. Deciding if she wants to change it or not.
“You ain’t nothing but a hound dog,” Nani sings along.
Lilo sucks in a breath, lowers her hand, and opens her mouth wide. “Crying all the time,” she sings back, adding an exaggerated twang to her voice. They’re both laughing by the time that Nani pulls in to Lilo’s school.

Why I Rec This Fic:
This made me cry, the harsh details of the reality of their situation are captured perfectly, but also the love they have in their family.

Lilo enters what she calls the "purple period". She tells Nani matter-of-factly that it's not a blue period anymore because she's not as sad as she used to be, but she's still sad.

"Nani and Lilo grow up and together and apart."
Why I Rec
This Fic: This fic is heartwarming and -breaking, its beautiful written and full of details, and i tear up just thinking of it.

“It’s not a very happy history, is it?”
“No.” Nani grabs Lilo’s ankle, squeezes it gently. “I think he would have liked aliens. Something navigating the space between the stars to come here. To come home. Something strong, and exploring, and free.”
More silence, broken only by the sound of the wind rustling the palm fronds and the distant crash of the ocean.
“I want to see it,” Lilo says, and her voice is low. This is a secret. This is important.

Word Count: 2710
Summary:
Future Fic, Happily ever after is what you make it - Jane and Michael some years later.
Why I Rec This Fic:
Lot of Future Fic for Media with kid protas is very depressing, and I understand that, how can someone who saw all this wonders conect with the restrictions of our ordinary words? but I am a person who needs to work on being positive because i get sad and numb so easy, so i prefere the fics that explore people finding their own kind of magic, finding their way through this worlds (and change what hurts them)


"Do you think she'd be proud of us?" asked Michael.

[...]
Most importantly, Michael was never as cross as their father had been, and she herself was much happier than she thought her mother had ever been. Would that be enough for Mary Poppins, though?

Character/Pairing:

He would watch from the deck for a passing whale or porpoise, and when he spotted one, he'd call to them, and ask them to deliver a letter to Mary. Of course, every creature in the sea knew Mary Poppins, and they were pleased to have the honor of delivering Bert's messages.

Character/Pairing:
Mary Poppins, Winifried Banks,
Mary Poppins/Winifried Banks
Word Count: 5751
Summary:
"[Magical Winifred? Oh, the possibilities!]"
Why I Rec This Fic:
I just want happy things for Winifried, and who doesn´t?

She couldn’t possibly be one of them, she thinks, because that would mean being like Mary Poppins. And she wasn’t anything like Mary Poppins.
But still, she shows up at Mary Poppins’ door in the early hours of the morning—when all the house is asleep, but she. And she knocks. And Mary Poppins opens the door—properly dressed for the day, and prim and poised.
Good morning, Mrs. Banks,” Mary Poppins says.
Winifred’s mind is reeling, and all she manages to blurt is—
I want you to teach me.”

Word Count: 7759

Why I Rec This Fic:
I love the focus on female characters being awesome, i love the “magic“ that is hope, and kindness and working together,


[…] what do you want to do when you grow up?”

Jane just barely stopped herself from saying, “I don’t know,” again, because she suspected it was a stupid “I don’t know.” Instead, she said after a moment’s thought, “I’m looking forward to finding out.”

Title: Whole New World By Roga
Fandom:
Aladdin (1992)
Character/Pairing:
Genie, Aladdin

Word Count: 2227
Summary:
"Genie always returns to Al."
Why I Rec This Fic:
Inmortality is always angst, add time travel and the thing is perfect. But its not just angst but also a very loving look at family and the world despite it all (including a Lilo and Stich reference) and that always make me feel better (after i have cried my heart out)


Genie does a great Brando.

It's a wasted talent, because Al wouldn't know the difference between Vito Corleone and Stanley Kowalski if his life depended on it, and Genie's never gonna leave Al, not now, no way, not in a million years. (Well, okay, he'll leave him in fifty-two years, when Al's gonna die of a freak trampling accident in a ripe old age, but that's when Genie will start watching over Al's oldest, who wouldn't recognize a perfectly pitched "Stella!" either.)

Why I Rec This Fic:
Being Queen/Princess as a job with lots of responsiblity. The little things about adjusting into a new life, with love and support! Complicated feelings about Gothel!


The Queen sighed, then pulled over a mirror. "Look," she said, pointing at the reflection. "Do you know what I see?"

I see a strong, confident, beautiful young lady. Oh, look, you're here, too!
"No," said Rapunzel, quietly.
"I see a princess. A princess must have confidence to stand before a crowd, or to speak with foreign rulers. So, straighten your back," her hands moved Rapunzel to the correct position, "raise your head," Rapunzel looked, "and tell yourself that nothing, not even shoes, can stand in your way."

Word Count: 992
Summary:

Why I Rec This Fic:
There are some really nice stories about Briar Rose and her relationship to her new name and role, but most of them are really sad (which they are allowed to be, its a topic with plenty of room for that) but softie as i am tend to be more drawn to this one: Its hopeful.
 

In the morning, descending the tower's long spiral stair with Phillip, it had been all right - it had been more than all right. Daylight pierced the tower in long, slender shafts through the narrow windows - just like the arrows, Phillip explained, that these windows were designed to keep out. She peered through, looking out over the land.

I love Ariels love for the ocean but I also love stories about her not being completly unhappy in her marriage on land – this fic has both, it also has Ariel as a good queen which I definitly love.

"If you can keep up with the schools of fish, it's like they're dancing around you in the water," she says. "You can't see anything but their colors when you're in the middle of the school, you just have to follow the way they do, feeling them touch you all over, everywhere--" She twists awkwardly as if she expects to be able to twirl in the air, and he traces sympathetic spirals on her skin with his fingertips.
He knows she misses it. She's entranced by bright things -- daylight, fire, paintings, birds' wings -- but there are so many things that she's lost that he doesn't even understand.
"The coral was alive," she says, "and you could hear it singing. Well, not singing, really, but humming. I wish sometimes ..." She shakes her head. "I don't know why the trees here don't sing," she says, a little sadly.
