10:33 am Swing Time by Kelly Chambliss (PG)
Fandom: STAR TREK VOYAGER
Pairing: Janeway/Paris
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] kellychambliss
Author Website: Kelly's Janeway Fiction
Why this must be read:

Like swing music itself, this story is hot, it's cool and above all very, very sexy. There's no plot to speak of really, just a rhythm and tone that's electric in nature. As evident from the opening lines, Kelly is a master at creating imagery and mood from carefully selected details. This story can make even the most devout skeptic (or devotee to a different pairing) a believer in J/P.

Pairing: Dom/Orlando

Why this must be read:

Aaaaand the month's first wing!fic. But wait! Forget the heavenly cliches-- This wing!fic is unlike anything I've ever read. It's a very, very creepy story, with an almost otherworldly Orlando and a scared, confused Dom. The idea and the execution fit together like a well-woven tapestry to create a world where Orlando is no angel.

Dom took advantage of his inattention to walk away a few steps. Back away, actually, because he couldn't quite bring himself to turn his back on Orlando. It was stupid, Orlando was about as dangerous as an overlarge puppy, but there it was.

He was scared. There was something very, very fucking scary about Orlando right now. His hands were beset with tiny tremors, his palms were damp, and sweat was prickling uncomfortably at all of his vulnerable places, the back of his neck, underarms, belly, the backs of his knees. All the places for which a predator might lunge, to weaken and disable.

05:24 pm Power of love by MagicofIsis (NC-17)
Fandom: HARRY POTTER
Pairing: Harry/Ron
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] magicofisis
Author Website: Magic of Isis
Why this must be read:

Long, interesting story. A strong Ron and a strong, if somewhat a little wicked Harry. The plot t is interesting, so is the magic used. A little long in places but keep on reading. The author added an alternate ending (Chapter 12). Me, I liked both of them.

What if what Harry needs to beat Voldemort is a protector that would give its life to save Harry's? Power of love runs with that idea.

06:17 pm World In Your Hands, by Te (NC-17)
Fandom: DC COMICS
Pairing: Kon/Clark
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] thete1
Author Website: Teland.com
Why this must be read:

First of all, I apologize for the lack of recs this past week; my family dragged me off camping.

Kon/Clark isn't really a very popular pairing in this fandom--there are only five or six quality fics written recently that I know of--but it's still one of my absolute favorites, and this story is why. Te totally *gets* Kon, and his weird relationship to Superman. This fic is hot, sweet, and the characterization is absolutely dead-on. Poor Clark just has no idea what to *do* with Kon, and on top of everything else Kon has to deal with this huge secret he has to keep from Clark, and--I could go on and on about this fic, so I'll stop there, and just say that it's really, really worth reading, even if you think you're kind of squicked by the pairing.

08:19 pm In Vino Salacitas, by Artemis Artemis (NC-17)
Fandom: HERCULES: THE LEGENDARY JOURNEYS
Pairing: Hercules/Iolaus
Author Website: The Less Than Legendary Journeys
Why this must be read:

This story pulls the rug out from under you in the very first scene, and the madness never stops after that. In Vino Salacitas is a well-plotted mix of farce and adventure story; there's a large cast of characters, but Hercules and Iolaus take center stage...and how.
