All Riddle, all the time

[vivien]

I saw this on the Daily Snitch and read with interest:A theory on why Tom Riddle (not Voldemort) is the Half-Blood prince. I find this very interesting, as it follows my theory that Voldemort isn't really Tom Riddle at all anymore.

I also read two incredible stories recced by musesfool

Prelude by nifra_idril
Quoted from Musesfool
"HP/Sandman crossover. Tom Riddle/Alexander Burgess, actually. Written from my killer plot bunny and completely exceeding my hopes. Tom Riddle pores over Roderick Burgess’s journals, as Alex Burgess tries to keep him entertained and away from the prisoner in the basement."

This was great - very in character for Tom, if he is set a bit more forward in time than I think was needed. It meshed the two universes very well.

Curiosities by penknife (HP/XMM)
Tom Riddle meets Erik Lehnsherr. I liked this one because it showed a nicely arrogant Tom with great character voice. Erik was also interesting to meet in this way.

So two great Riddle fics in one day. What more could a girl ask for?

Yeah, I read that too. It has potential.

Tom meets Erik Lehnsherr?! That one sounds like a must read!
