I don't watch Elementary, I just look at gifsets on Tumblr and sometimes read or watch things when they pop up on my flist. So there's your grain of salt, take it if you like! [livejournal.com profile] justkisa asked for Elementary, and who am I to deny her? ;) I'm pretty sure I've recommended four out of five of these before to someone, but Twitter is a very transitory medium so it's probably for the best to have them in one place anyway.

Brainy, by irishmizzy
I mostly clicked on this the first time because I really like the song -- I'd never seen anything by this vidder before, and I'm wary of YouTube fanvids. I'm only sorry that irishmizzy didn't have more vids for me to watch when I was done! This one is really lovely. I mean, you might need me more than you think you will is clearly a line written for Joan Watson.

La Chanson des Vieux Amants, by language_escapes
The one with the bees! Long and very satisfying, and a great Joan POV.

Paler Than Grass, by philalethia
I think this might be the first Elementary fic I ever read? It was a while ago, but I remember it being a very nice introduction to the fandom. Sherlock keeps interfering with Joan's dates.

Without Beauty, by queenklu
Sherlock wears a dress and makes cupcakes. It's not funny at all; it's really sweet and touching instead.

I think five is the perfect number for these sets, by the way. I usually have one or two things in mind for each theme already so I don't have to scour the internet too much, and this way I can't let myself get so obsessive about including everything. So I'm having fun; I hope you're enjoying the stuff I rec!

Ohh, thank you for this! You're the best. I'm so excited. I haven't read either Paler Than Grass or Without Beauty. And I'd never seen the first vid (so good!) I was on my way to bed when I saw this on twitter but I just had to peek and I ended up watching the first vid (so good! I said that already, didn't I? oh well, worth saying again!) and I'm really excited to read the stories sometime tomorrow. Something to look forward to!
