10:05 am In Me, by Robin Serrano (NC-17)
Fandom: due South
Pairing: Fraser/Kowalski
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] robin_serrano
Author's website: None that I know of.

Why this must be read: It's a first-time story like no other -- Ray comes to realize that what he and Fraser have been doing is way more than he thought it was. The first time I read this I was just in awe.

Spoilery quoteness )

02:35 pm Narcissus by Echo (PG)
I'm sorry for being so late. But here I am now, so forgive me? *pleading look*

Fandom: LOTRiPS
Pairing: Dom/Elijah, Dom/Billy
Author on LJ:
Author Website: She Cries Your Name
Why this must be read: I love this story because it's a great example of how saying less can be more. It also does a wonderful job of mixing humor and angst. But most of all, I love the fact that Elijah is losing it. :)~


Elijah first sees it in his last week at the New York Apartment.
It is between his orange shirt and his brown jacket. It is above his ragged Vans with frayed shoelaces and gaping holes and soles that must have been white at sometime but are now an indistinct muddy greyish-brown.
He walks in and out of the closet several times. The first time he comes back in, it’s still there.
The second time, it’s still there.
The sixteenth time, it’s still there.
At seventeen it becomes fact. And the fact is:
There is a black hole in Elijah’s closet.
Between his orange shirt and his brown jacket.

06:59 pm Cinema for Cineastes by Valeria(G)
Fandom::HOMICIDE:LIFE ON THE STREET
Author's Website: http://www.certando.net
Author on lj: [livejournal.com profile] verdandi or [livejournal.com profile] violetisblue
Pairing: Munch/Kay(shock theater, right)
Summary:; What if Munch and Kay had a movie review show?
Why this must be read: Because Valeria is the Funniest Living Homicide Fan, and she gets the by-play that is the cornerstone of this particular ship. And it's a good joke on those of us who are movie geeks. I would post an excerpt but it would give the punchline away, but it's an excellent,quietly sexy humorfic...and it's got me all curious about a certain movie starring Catherine Deneuve, but I'll save that for another time, huh?

07:36 pm The Three Pound Eight Ounce Warrior by Teresa Coffman (PG)
 
Fandom: HIGHLANDER
Pairing:  N/A
Author on LJ: Not that I know of
Author Website: Teresa Coffman's Highlander Keep
Why this must be read: There are several stories that explore what the demon Ahriman might have offered Methos, similar to Joe Dawson being tempted by the return of his legs. This one is as well written as any of them, but what sets it apart is its unique character point of view.

Fandom: LOTRiPS
Pairing: Sean Astin/Elijah Wood, Orlando/Viggo
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] cimorene111
Author Website: Princess Cimorene
Why this must be read: This fic is absolutely beautiful. It's about unrequited love and trying to be a friend even when it breaks your heart. But don't worry, this one has a happy ending. The fic skips around a bit but that totally works for this fic. Author's summary: Lij has been waiting forever. Also this series has a prequel centering around Orli/Viggo. Check it out too if you have time. :)

08:46 pm What It Means by midnightblue0162 (PG-13)
Fandom: FIREFLY
Pairing: Book/Jayne
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] tynantblue0162
Author Website: none

Why this must be read:

Okay, now that you've all had a chance to look at the pairing and be thoroughly squicked, let me explain. This story is good: as in great.

This fic is one of the most well-done portrayals of male friendship I've seen in this fandom. Utterly believable (and I for one certainly never thought believable Book/Jayne was possible), it's a series of codas illuminating the characters's feelings and reactions to "Jaynestown," "Ariel" and "War Stories." It's a wonderful exploration of the ways in which Book and Jayne's unique friendship could skim the edges of dependence and longing.
