Lately I've been finding that I really enjoy stories where language, either written or spoken, plays a strong role in the story's plot. For example, there's 'Pegasus Literature 101', where Miko configures the 'Gate to translate the written word, or 'Words, Words, Words', in which John sketches and writes on his skin in ballpoint, or 'Nonverbal', where the original explorers of Atlantis have their own, completely unspoken language. If this is to your taste, or if you'd like to see what I've garnered so far,
here is the link to stuff on my delicious account, tagged 'language'. I would really like to read more, though, especially after I recently found 'Peg Lit'.
Second, for some reason I adore Rodney-as-a-musician-or-professor stories. All I have for musical!Rodney is: 'Pianoforte' by Mirabile Dictu; 'Unidentified', by Fiercelydreamed; and 'String Theory, a Concerto for Violin in D-minor' by Toftoft. All I have for professor!Rodney is 'Freedom's Just Another Word'.
Finally: quantum mirror stories. I can't get enough of them.
Gracias to all, and to all a good night!
