05:33 pm And Thou by Sleeps With Coyotes (PG)
Fandom: YAMI NO MATSUEI
Pairing: Tsuzuki/Hisoka
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] ciceqi
Author Website: Blood, Love, and Rhetoric
Why this must be read:

One of the things I love about Coyo's work is that even in her lighter pieces, she never loses sight of the fact that this is a fandom about dead and often violent people. In a vignette such as this one, that means there's a bittersweet tone that makes the images linger after the story is done. It's Tsuzuki and Hisoka, contemplative after a case, and willing to take a few chances.

08:55 pm Best Friends Forever by Ethan (PG-13)
Fandom: QUEER AS FOLK US
Pairing: Brian/Michael friendship

Why this must be read:
I thought I'd begin at the beginning for my turn as QAF crack van driver, with a trip down memory lane. This could very well be the story of how Brian and Michael met. This was one of the first QAF stories I read way back when the fandom was shiny-new, and I have great fondness for it.

Fandom: Firefly
Pairing: None to speak of

Author Website: Irregularities
Why this must be read:
The challenge was to write something set 5 years from the end of Firefly, the series. Most people wrote things that were interesting, or thought provoking; this author wrote something that was both, and read like the opening to the third act of the third Firefly movie (should it ever come to pass). It gave me chills - the good kind - when I read it.
