Clock Tower Theater: Fanfic, Fan Music Videos and Art

[Genki]

I am completely loving this story right now, especially with what is going on on the show.  If I could take it to bed with me and hug it all night, I would.

 

Also in the great fic theme, ash818 is continuing the Legacy fic with The Man Under the Hood, as Jonathan Queen steps up to continue the family business and learns that not all the bruises are on your skin.

 

Love Legacy and the sequel  is going strong.

 

Here is 12 days of Christmas Olicity style...currently at day 4. Pretty cute!

Well that just hurts :-(

[writersblock51]

I keep seeing that bittersweet GIF on Twitter.  So sad.

 

I LOVED Legacy - didn't know there was a sequel, so thanks for the link, statsgirl!  Thankfully, there is a long and lovely selection of fanfics to get through the extended hiatus with.

 

"Let Your Heart Be Light" is like a warm cup of cocoa with plenty of marshmallows on top.  Just right for now.

 

The artist of the excellent fan art that made it's way onto some reputable websites as some kind of spoiler put together 2 new pieces.

How can I get the images to load, imbedded in this post?

 

ETA: Sorry for the huge size of the images. I figured out how to copy them here but not how to resize them!  Thanks, tv_echo!!!

How can I get the images to load, imbedded in this post?

When you find an image on a website, right-click on the image and copy the image url.  Then come here to reply.  Above the reply text box is a small square picture icon (third from right).  Click on that icon and a small Image Properties box will pop up.  Paste the image url in the URL box and then click OK.  (Not all image extensions will work, but jpg, gif and png should be okay.)

Stuff from twitter doesn't work unless you can get a link of just the image. Also, I find that if I'm on a mobile and do [*img]picture[/*img], it doesn't always work.

[writersblock51]

Thanks!

Thanks for the image tips guys...I'm going to keep that in mind for future posts.

 

but today super-cute Olicity holiday theme vid

 

[writersblock51]

That was fun and cute!

[statsgirl]

MachaSWicket wrote Hanging on a Wall of Stars, about Felicity dealing with what happened to Oliver in The Climb.  It's how I hope the show will deal with it.

 

Also Watercolors, where Oliver and Felicity remember Sara.  Warning, you may get tears in your eyes.

[Morrigan2575]

Cute video but they raced through the subtitles, it was hard to read them all.

[Pothunter]

Quite a few writers have jumped on the Bratva AU train. All recs are Oliver/Felicity.

 

Crooked by fairest, well written and unusual. Oliver did not come back to Starling from Russia. He is an assassin who has been told to eliminate Felicity.

In other news, Pulse by TeaWithLemon is a good post-finale fic. One of the less angsty ones.

Merlyn's Magic by superscar, in which the Arrow premise is turned on its head, and both Felicity and Oliver are awesome.

Last but not least, A Kiss to the Forehead by Lademonessa, a no-holds-barred, snarky, funny and wish-this-had-happened reaction to the finale from one of my favourite authors.

I'm not buying any Oliver Smurf that doesn't come with abs.  Tats at the very least. 

[wonderwall]

I'm not one for fanvideos, but I thought this was a great homage to the Original Team Arrow. And this leaves me a little bitter because I wish we could get back to this.

[Luckylyn]

I miss original Team Arrow so much.

[writersblock51]

Great compilation. I miss the original team a lot, too. I didn't expect it to stay that way, every episode, all time.  But I do wish there were more Core 3 team scenes, even though Roy is a part of the team now.

[NumberCruncher]

Damn. That video makes me both happy and sad at the same time. It's great to reminisce about all the great Team Arrow moments, but it's also a reminder of how the show just hasn't been the same without that dynamic at the forefront.

[wonderwall]

Also, I think this is HILARIOUS. So hilarious that I even recommend the non-olicity shippers on this board to watch it because it's that funny :p

 

[olicityfan25]

omg those videos absolutely kill me!

[Ariah]

OK, this is not a fan video per se - but it sure does look like that now, after 3 years. I didn't know where to put it, so I'm sorry Dear Mods, if it's in a wrong place...

 

But it's a real blast from the past, just before Xmas:

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1ihPCa2uKE

   

an old promo by CW, constructed around Oliver, Laurel and Tommy. It looks quite... funny now, if you ask me.

(btw, how can one embed videos in these posts?...)

So not Olicity or arrow par say, but cool non the less

A fan made video of Marvel V. DC, and they used Arrow's Arrow :-) (and flash too)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KxIHVGch8I&sns=tw

Also that old Arrow promo? Always looked funny, i mean.. It's a superhero show not gossip girl 2.0. I always snigger when i see that promo, because those lines? I can see chuck bass saying them, i can see some bad boy on a soap opera saying them? yea, absolutely!.. But post island Oliver Queen who dresses in a green costume and fights crime? Ooookay.... Someone obviously didn't get the memo on what the show was supposed to be about.

ETA: apperantly I'm late to the party with that mash up video. Just noticed writersblock51 posted it a couple of days before me on the mind your surrounding thread.

Also about that old promo, was anyone else waiting for him to mention in addition to lying, cheating, running with that bad crowd and not remembering birthdays the part where, yeah, I also am ok with killing you?

Leaving this here, just in case you guys want to have your hearts ripped out again ;)

That was wonderful, thank you.

[tv echo]

Ugh... that old promo.  That is NOT a show that I would've watched.

[Password]

Hahahaha I just watched that promo. Oh my word that was...interesting. Back when Lauriver was a go. Listen to him, stay away.

[looptab]

Humor Olicity n. 6 and 7 :)

[HighHopes]

A really good fic I got rec'd to me that I think is probably one of the best post 3x09 fics. The focus is on Felicity, but Team Arrow is there too:

 

The History of Feeling: These are the facts, as best Felicity understands them. (post 3.09)

[TanyaKay]

Absolutely loving this fanfic and cannot recommend it enough. Love Moira/Felicity interaction in it

This is my "I'm so going to hell for this" post ... so there's a conversation going on in the social media thread about a photo that Stephen posted that emphasized certain, um ... attributes of his. I remembered this GIF from a hilarious and blush-inducing convo on Tumblr. Can't find the actual posts, but I found the GIF. You're welcome.

 

 

And this is incredibly mean, but OMG so hilarious. C'mon, no one ever imagined this when the photos came out, hmm?

Oh, I'm sure they (stuntmen and actors) are required to wear a cup for stunts. There; salaciousness level down one notch.  ;-)

It's still Christmas, right?  A cute Christmas fic, where Joe West invites the Arrow gang, including Sara and Nyssa, over for the celebration. 

 

For All Of This by gnimaerd.

 

“Uh,” Cisco blinks, and clearly decides that in a world where he has a friend who can run faster than the speed of sound, a woman who has been murdered and yet is still somehow sat in front of him knitting baby clothes is less of a stretch than it should be. “Awesome. I mean. Not awesome. But awesome that you’re – not murdered anymore.”

I'm really loving this fic too, and the Moira/Felicity dynamic is delicious, and I want to see more of that, the only niggle I have is the author just introduced and OC best friend, I hate the OC best friend in fan fiction trope, a lot, but I'm liking the fic so much that I'm going to keep reading.

 

There has been so many enjoyable Bratva fics but my favourite at the moments is a WIP "Take her, keep her and make her yours"

 

Also I can remember if it has been recommended here but really love "Hang My Head Break My Heart (Built From All I Have Torn Apart)" the Thea/Felicity friendship is gold and really happy about the development in the latest chapter.

It Was Red - kyrieanne

 

This is a devastating fic to be honest. Wonderfully written too.

Well I did say it was devastating! This is partially your fault for taking my warnings lightly :p I feel like I need something super happy to even everything out

[Menrva]

And this is incredibly mean, but OMG so hilarious. C'mon, no one ever imagined this when the photos came out, hmm?

 

Ha! I am vindicated! 

Yeah…I'm totally going to hell.

I think there may be a fair few of us on that particular train Menrva.

But it was happy.  Well not happy but they're both out there fighting for each other.

 

There are a lot of fics where thinking of Felicity brings Oliver back, but I like this one the best in terms of hopeful angst.
