12:53 am Equilibrium by mylittleredgirl (PG)
Title: Equilibrium
Fandom: Star Trek: Enterprise
Pairing: Trip/T'Pol
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] mylittleredgirl
Author Website: Out Of The Badlands
Why this must be read:

I am not a Trip/T'Pol fan. I'll say that up front. I'm not. But there are certain writers who I'll read it for and [livejournal.com profile] mylittleredgirl is one of them. In a post ep for "Bound" she gives us a lovely little introspective of T'Pol. Thoughts, backstory and a view of the events of Bound and how she'll be facing them. Reading this? I like the T'Pol I'm reading and I even can like the view of the relationship this gives us. Believe me, any fic that can get me to do that deserves the rec.

01:30 am Plato's Gift by Djinn (R)
Title: Plato's Gift
Fandom: Star Trek: The Original Series
Pairing: Kirk/Chapel
Author on LJ: As far as I know, Djinn isn't.
Author Website: Djinn's Lair
Why this must be read:

I didn't really read much Star Trek: TOS fanfiction for a long time simply because most of what I'd seen was Kirk/Spock and, well, surprisingly that just wasn't an interest for me. Then I stumbled across Djinn's fic on a mailing list and found myself utterly flabbergasted by the idea that she wrote Kirk/Chapel. The idea surprised the hell out of me. Christine Chapel and James T. Kirk?!

Then I read it.

If there was ever a writer who could convert me to a pairing, it is probably Djinn. She writes a Christine Chapel who is more than a beehive hairdo, great set of legs, and the Crush On Spock. She also writes a Jim Kirk who's compelling, human, and more than just "James -- T -- Kirk", Captain and Manwhore. They're real people with a real connection. The writing's great, the humor perfectly TOS and the whole thing? (all of her fic really) is a damn good treat.

Sex isn't bad either. *G*

01:42 am Tiny Dancer by helsinkibaby (PG)
Title:Tiny Dancer
Fandom: Stargate SG1
Pairing: Jack/Janet
Author On Lj: [livejournal.com profile] helsinkibaby
Author Website: The Band Gazebo
Why This Must Be Read:

This is, easily, one of the best Janet/Jack fics I have ever read. It's Janet POV and it touches on something we've only gotten hints of in the show. The connection between Jack and Cassie. the fact that, for all intents and purposes, he's the closest thing to a father she's going to have on Earth. Using that as a base, [livejournal.com profile] helsinkibaby does an amazing job of building up a believable and wonderful connection between Jack and Janet.

If all Jack and Janet fics were this good I'd die happy.
