If you're too young or too closed-minded about some of the things you read here, please feel free to leave. If you've got other rec's that are different from what I've got (but are on par in quality, length, and so on) feel free to leave comments. I usually like longer, angstier works, but I'm always interested in a good read ;)

Miranda Priestly's Five Best Friends by telanu (Miranda/Andy)
An interesting character study of Miranda.

Nice by thelastgoodname (Andy/Miranda, Miranda/Stephen)
"Andy and Stephen have something in common: they like to watch. Good thing Miranda likes to be watched." Searingly hot, kinky, and well written, it's another one you shouldn't miss.

Nice Girl's Don't by Telanu; Miranda/Andrea)
"Well, love is insanity. The ancient Greeks knew that. It is the taking over of a rational and lucid mind by delusion and self-destruction. You lose yourself, you have no power over yourself, you can't even think straight." -Marilyn French. Set during the movie, this story could simply be seen as a few stolen femslash moments, but is much, much more than that. Telanu's masterful storytelling verges on being uncomfortable as she pushes the characters and storylines to fruition, but it's necessary as it sets the tone for a relationship fraught with unresolved tension.

Conflict of Interest by Telanu (Andy/Shirley, DWP/Boston Legal X-Over)
"An alternate ending to Nice Girls Don't. What if Miranda hadn't been reasonable?"

Not Made To Woo by writetherest (Miranda/Andy)
"Can you explain to me," Andrea again skipped the pleasantries and Emily thought that Miranda had certainly rubbed off on her, "why a man knocked on my door this morning and delivered to me a dozen peach roses and a turtle?"

Picking and Choosing by chainofclovers (Miranda/Andrea)
Andy brings Miranda and the twins to meet her parents for Christmas. It's very WAFFy.

Price On Application by ll_alleycat (Andy/Miranda)
Miranda notices that Andy is wearing things from the closet...

Ready or Not by fembuck (Miranda/Andy)

Rebellious Lock by quiethearted (Miranda/Andy)
"Miranda’s forelock has a mind of its own." Very tasty and funny crack fic! XD

Ruins by random_flores (Miranda/Andy)
Andrea Sachs was a unique blemish in a long line of Emilys.

Save Me by outuendo_11 (Miranda/Andrea; warning: angst, drug use)
Miranda's life was falling apart around her, and only cocaine seemed to make sense.

Sankofa by Menzosarres (Miranda/Andy)
"Two years after Paris, Andy is finally settled in at The Mirror when she finds herself grudgingly pigeonholed into covering New York's Next Top Model. The question on everyone's lips: who on earth coerced Miranda Priestly into judging? Working in close-quarters with the Dragon Lady once again, will Andy be able to push through their complicated history and assert that she is, in fact, something more than Miranda's disappointing ex-assistant?"

She Likes a Prizefight by Telanu (Miranda/Andrea) *
"Love is the difficult realization that someone other than oneself is real." -Iris Murdoch. This vignette-styled story is set after the end of the movie, and has Miranda coming back into Andrea's life and taking charge once again. Why is Miranda doing this? Can Andrea do a thing about it, and does she even want to? The nuances of the power plays between the two protagonists are not overdone (which is a pleasant surprise) and it's refreshing to see a a largely slash writer do femslash so well. Kudos to leavethesky for introducing me to this one. :)

Ship and the Girl, The by needled_ink_1975 (Miranda/Andrea)
This series of vignettes has Miranda and Andy meet up in a Kendo dojo after the twins express their interest in joining the discipline. It does well in expanding Miranda's character and motivations. Andy's depiction on the other hand is slightly out of character (OOC).

Sisters by akasarahsmom (Miranda/Andy implied)
Cassidy finds something disturbing in the news.

Souvenir by kyanited (Andy/Miranda, Emily POV)
Emily finds some scarves...

Stonewalling by thelastgoodname (Nigel, Miranda/Andy)

Take Me to the River by spacedmuch (Miranda/Andy)
"With her marriage now in ruins, Andy decides to return to New York to get some answers and hopefully a fresh start. However, things don't go entirely according to plan."

Taming the Dragon by grdnofevrythng (Miranda/Andy)
"Sometimes age matters." Andy drags Miranda to a club.

Three by jackiejlh (Andy/Miranda)
Miranda's never believed in good things coming in threes. Now bad things coming in threes, that's a different story.

Trick Or Treat by beachbum3668 (Miranda/Andy, Halloween theme)
Miranda meets a witch at her door when she realizes she's out of treats...

What a Million Girls Would Kill For by woldy (Emily, Miranda, Emily/OFC)
"This – the Prada skirts and Jimmy Choos – was what a lesbian should look like." Woldy masterfully weaves Emily's backstory prior to Runway to handle issues about body image, diet, and sexuality in a thoughtful manner. This story comes highly recommended not only by me but also pin_drop.

What I Wore to the Revolution by jae_w (Emily/Andy)
"Four times Emily lowered her standards, and one time she didn't." I really like how Emily is characterized in this piece.

Woo, Lockyer, Priestly, Sachs by thelastgoodname (Miranda/Andy)
Andy hears about the verdict for California and decides to share it with Miranda.

Alternate Universe & Cross-Overs
Bookends by in_my_nature (Boston Legal/DWP x-over; Andy/Miranda, Denny/Alan)

Cinde-fuckin-rella by damelola / lauriestein (Miranda/Andy/Stephen, Miranda/Andy) (AU)
"Andy works for a 'niche' escort agency to pay her way through law school. A husband frustrated by his 'frigid' wife has a request. You do the math(s) ;)"

Cinderella Wears Prada (Parts 1, 2 by thanatopis76 (Andy/Miranda, humor)
Classic fairy tale mixed in...

End of All Things, The by Telanu (Andy/Miranda, AU)
A vignette whose plot is heavily indebted to Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale. Miranda and Andy are in Europe, in the resistance, fleeing desperately for their lives as their side continues to lose ground.

In Motion by Telanu (Andy/Miranda, Star Wars x-over)
"Andy is a young initiate at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, longing to become a full-fledged Jedi Knight. But who would be willing to take on a klutz like her as a Padawan?"

(Not Exactly) Storybook Romance, A by writetherest (Miranda/Andy, AU)
"Andy owns a bookstore. She's kind of a bookworm and wallflower, but is secretly an amazing artist. She can sketch anything. Somehow Miranda brings her out of her shell."

There is a Light by atrata (Andy/Miranda)
Zombie crack-fic at it's best.

Multi-chaptered / Multi-part
Clean Rooms and Dirty Light (parts 1, 2) by chainofclovers (Miranda/Andy)
Miranda and Andy try to find ways to relate to each other beyond their sexual encounters.

Fly on the wall, A by pantone462 (Emily POV, Miranda/Andrea)
Emily can't understand why Andrea has usurped her spot as Miranda's go-to girl, so when Andrea forgets to bring Miranda some scarves, Miranda pulls Andrea aside for a well-deserved reprimand. Or so Emily thinks...

Four Suites and One Room by chilly_flame (Andy/Miranda)
Andy, having moved on to become a freelance field reporter based in LA, covers Mercedez Benz Fashion Week and bumps into her old boss, Miranda Priestley...

It's A Life, Anyway by hayseed_42 (Cassidy POV; Miranda/Andy)
Cassidy thinks Miranda isn't gay.

Light Up by chilly_flame (Miranda/Andy)
It never occurred to Miranda how dangerous Andy's job would be.

Miriam Princheck by pin_drop (kudos to chilly_flame for introducing me to this!)
"After all that, it turns out Miranda’s not invincible." Everyone's built up Miranda Priestley to a certain image and held her up to a high pedestal, but when the cracks start to show, can Andy reach out to Miriam Princheck in time? Definitely a well-written unique, layered, take on the dynamics between these two, and with enough plot twists to make your mind spin.

M.O.B.R. by pantone462
Lily asks Andy and Doug to take part in an unusual art project.

Not Everyone by spacedmuch (Miranda/Andy)

Divine Decadence by kitnkabootle (Miranda/Andy, Miranda/OMC; warning: disturbing imagery, sex, violence, rape)
"Andrea Sachs has worked at the New York Mirror for two years, when a news story lands on her desk with ties to a very unexpected woman from her past." According to the author, it is loosely based on the 1967 French film starring Catherine Deneuve called "Belle de Jour". This fic is a sequel to her fic, "Perfect."

Right Thing, The by lauriestein / damelola (Miranda/Andy)
"Set after the movie!verse of DWP. Andy is working at the Mirror and receives an unexpected phone call. Miranda needs her, again. It seems Miranda has run into a little legal trouble, and who better to help get her side of the story out, right?"

Righteous Anger, The by pantone462 (Andy/Miranda)
When Andy threw that phone into the fountain, she never considered how hard it would be to get away...

Sick Day series by chilly_flame (Andy/Miranda)
A series that starts with Miranda getting sick.

Small Favors, Beautiful Things, Good Fortune by chilly_flame (Andy/Miranda)

8 Simple Rules for Dating My Mother (parts 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8) by Coco (i_heart_cuddy)
The sequel. "The twins refuse to go through another painful divorce with their mother.

When the Night Falls on You by fewthistle (Andy/Miranda AU)
Andy decides to stay with Miranda after Paris.

When in Doubt, Wear Red (Parts 1, 2, 3, 4) by thelastgoodname (Andrea/Miranda)*
"The person whose calls you always take? That's the relationship you're in." What if instead of leaving Miranda in Paris, Andy stays? Great characterizations, strong writing and editing, and naturalmente, great sizzling sex. Really. Don't miss this.

White Queen Falls, The by writtensword (Miranda/Andy)
"What if Miranda had NOT known (about Irv's plan)? A slowly progressing Miranda/Andrea femslash story that takes place on Vancouver Island."

X Ingredient, The by Telanu *
"Miranda's assistants, once they have proven themselves worthy of trust, have a time-honored, very secret tradition of giving her oral sex whenever she asks for it. She does not, however, regard this as sex; neither do they. Therefore it is not intimacy, nor does it involve infidelity on either her part or theirs. It is part of their job, and one of the perks of hers. Nobody ever talks about it; nobody who has not been an assistant knows about it." When Andy is called to the task, however, she takes it beyond the call of duty, and this changes everything...

Sightings and In Between by skeeter451 (Miranda/Andy)
These are companion pieces to Telanu's The X Ingredient, so it might be a good to read that first. If Miranda thought that no one would notice her relationship with Andy, she was horribly mistaken...

Alternate Universe & Cross-Overs
Hello Stranger (Parts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 by Eveh (aka evehs_lullaby) (Andy/Miranda; AU)
What if Andy never worked for Runway and instead worked for Auto Universe? Miranda keeps bumping into a strange woman who keeps talking to her in the building's elevator...

Hijink (Parts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14) by random_flores (DWP / Get Smart x-over; Miranda/Andy, 99/Max)
"Worlds collide when Agent 99 and Maxwell Smart chase Rogue Agent 23 to a charity auction, and discover the inspiration for Agent 99's new face: Andy. Now, a case of mistaken identity has Andrea kidnapped, Max befuddled, and Miranda Priestly pissed off."

That Ridiculous Dress by sporkmetender (Miranda/Andy, AU)
"Andy gets a job at the Mirror right away instead of going to work for Runway. Miranda is, however, an unavoidable presence on the New York publishing scene, and they cross paths rather dramatically after an awards dinner."

Novella/Novel-Length
Truth and Measure by Telanu (Andy/Miranda)
Andy decides to stay with Miranda in Paris, to prove that she isn't like Miranda; that it is possible to have success, to be happy, and still be a halfway-decent person. So why is it that Andy still decides to tear herself away from her family on Christmas day to answer Miranda's beck and call in London? Why is it that once she gets there, she finds herself not baby-sitting the twins as she thought she would, or staying at a hotel, but staying at the Priestly residence and immediately whisked off as part of Miranda's entourage to high-society events?

Working Title by pin_drop (Andy/Miranda, Miranda/Nigel, Miranda/OFC)
The author adds wonderful character depth in this novella-length piece for Miranda and Nigel and how they relate to each other. I ought to add this spoiler addenda that while I found the interactions for Andy/Miranda to be very awkward in several places (highlight to unspoil) (the marijuana elevator sequence, the Paris Andy melt down sequence, and "let's make Andy the cook" sequence)--many of which seem out of character and out of place--it doesn't take away the awesomeness that is part 2 and the last sequence of the fic. Unconventional and not readily categorizable, indeed...

I just want to bring to your attention...

I don't really know how to PM you through dreamwidth. I'm sorry about that. I just gotta let you know about this: http://melanacious.livejournal.com/tag/title:%20between%20two%20devils

You can delete this post afterwards if you want.

Re: I just want to bring to your attention...

[ein_myria]

Hi, thanks for writing in. I think I've read some of the earlier chapters but I think I was going to wait 'till it was finished to read it. lol So I guess it's back on track? I remember there being some sort of hiatus.

Check out Disarming Athena and A Mean Sleep by politic_x - http://community.livejournal.com/dvlwears_prada/tag/user%3A%20politic_x

Re: I just want to bring to your attention...

[ein_myria]

Thanks for reminding me about those, I had read them and put the review of Politic X's fics to the side in a txt file and then kind of forgot about posting it. I've read Politic X's fics for the X Files genre and I've rec'ed one of his/her fics before, so the writing feels a little rusty for me...I'm still waiting for that "big bang" where I'm impressed by what's out there. My thoughts on those works are below:

-----------
For "Disarming Athena," Andrea's characterization comes off as being a little manic depressive, which is a bit odd for me; not bad, just odd, because little nuggets of "emo" would just pop up--perhaps they could be packaged a little better to cushion their abruptness. The interaction between Andrea and Miranda felt slightly contrived, particularly the aggressive come-on sequence in the elevator, as well as the caressing and undressing--perhaps if the set up for the scenes weren't so brief (the various chapters felt more like vignettes), the pacing would have felt a little less choppy.

The author utilizes several interesting ideas in this piece, one of which was the use of Greek mythological deities as metaphors for the characters. It seems a tad simplistic and the implementation was a bit awkward but hey, it's there! Most authors haven't gone this route. The narrative does come off as a much more polished attempt than the author's previous piece in this genre, "A Mean Piece," where it's clear that the author is still trying to find the right tone for the characters.

Politic X

[(Anonymous)]

Have you actually written something? Do you know what it takes to write something that dares to be different from the usual? Your criticism has its value, but would be more valuable if expressed directly to the writer. That way they can improve upon what you consider to be faults. This way many potential fans miss out on what is a really good, really original work of fiction that doesn't give in to any cliches, that doesn't say sorry for being different, that speaks controversially without taking the tedious route of the no-longer-so-sordid sexual taboo.

Re: Politic X

[ein_myria]

LOL In a past life I used to be a fanfic writer. So yes, I do know what it takes to write something different, though I can't say that the works that I wrote were all that good. :) (it was approximately 15 years ago)

Look, in terms of direct feedback; some writers purposely go seeking for feedback, and others really, really don't. I've had some bad experiences where I was flamed pretty badly when I gave some constructive feedback, so...*shrugs* It's there if people want it to be. Some people think that the work is their baby; any "constructive" feedback might seen as being affront to their creative genius. Also, "constructive feedback" is only useful if they're writing something else along similar lines, or if they're adapting the work for publication (this was precisely the genre of fics that I focused on prior to moving to DW).

Certain contributors (as the above) also suggested certain stories to be put on the list. Rather than stay silent about their status, would it not be better to explain my rationale for not putting it on the main list? Readers are certainly welcome to check out the stories for themselves, I'm not stopping them. :) I can't do 'cuts' in the comments, otherwise I would.
