I haven't rec'd anything for a while so here's some two very short original one-shots I hope some of you check out.

The Name's Barbara by [livejournal.com profile] kungfuwaynewho
Word Count: 600, Rating: PG,
Original Fic Pairings: Barbie/Ken, Barbie/Batman, Barbie/He-Man, Barbie/Skeletor, Barbie/Ugly Doll
Summary: All Barbara wants is a pleasant dinner and nice conversation. Is that too much to ask?
A really inspired piece, a sort of cynical 'Toy Story' for adults. The narration is wonderful and lets us see inside Barbie—sorry, Barbara's—head.

The Gift Wife by [profile] alderspring
Word Count: 553, Rating: PG-13
Original Fic
Summary: "HENRY JOHN CHRISTCHURCH, YOU HAVE BEEN CHOSEN TO RECEIVE A BRIDE!" The e-mail, once read, looked surprisingly legitimate, especially considering the all-caps hysteria of its subject line.
A fantastic short story in which a man receives an email telling him he's won a bride. There's a twist end, and a plot point which references the meaning behind a given name. Marvellous.
