08:29 am And I Blame You by David Hearne (PG)
Fandom: FARSCAPE
Pairing: A little bit each of John/Aeryn, Stark/Zhaan, and uc Crais/Aeryn
Author on LJ: not that I know of
Author Website: none that I know
Why this must be read: This is basically four short character pieces set after "Infinite Possibilities," in which each of Talyn-John's shipmates looks back over their feelings about him, which feature both respect and resentment. It offers some interesting, perceptive insights into each of the four characters and their relationships with John and, often, with each other.

08:39 am Hollywood Makeover by marylane23 (R)
Hi, gang, I'm [livejournal.com profile] trollprincess and I'll be driving the van for Veronica Mars this month. I'm in it mostly for the icons. ;)

Fandom: VERONICA MARS
Pairing: Logan/Veronica, Duncan/Veronica
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] marylane23
Author Website: Fic in her memories
Why this must be read: Following the events of season one, Veronica and her circle of friends, family, allies and enemies do what anyone would do after such traumatic circumstances -- get together to watch the cheesy TV movies of the week. As strange at that might sound, this incredibly funny story lets those most affected by the investigation into Lilly's murder watch (and properly mock) the resulting "dramatic reanactments" and allows the characters to use them as a morbidly amusing sort of therapy.

Hi, sorry I'm a wee bit late. I'm [livejournal.com profile] foxxcub and I return once again to drive the van for the Lost fandom for February. Enjoy!

Fandom: LOST
Pairing: Jack/Sawyer
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] eponine119
Author Website: A Concern for Dark Corners
Why this must be read:

What can I say, [livejournal.com profile] eponine119 is one of the most consistent writers in the fandom. It's literally a huge undertaking trying to pick a single fic of hers to rec, and more than likely there will be more from her showing up here later this month. This fic is set further into season two, and Sawyer is back to stealing and hording supplies. Jack, in his desperation to keep the respect of the other survivors and his reputation as a good leader, decides to teach Sawyer a lesson. He leads him out to The Black Rock and quickly loses control of the situation. Warning: much, MUCH darkness and other twisted things occur, but it's so good (and hot) it hurts. One of the best Jack/Sawyer fics out right now.

08:15 pm Two things that didn't happen and one that did by Quigonejinn (G)
Fandom: HORNBLOWER
Pairing: William Bush, Horatio Hornblower
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] quigonejinn

Why this must be read:

Quigonejinn sidled into Hornblower a month or so ago scattering wit, insight, and totally unecessary apologies for her enthusiasm for bookverse and her 'spamming' (by which she means that she exceeds the fandom-wide average of one fic every six months or so) left, right and centre. She will, if she continues at the rate she's going, own the entire Hornblower fandom by the end of next month.

Here she takes three different looks at the Unpleasantess At Caudebec. Short, bittersweet, and beautiful.

11:48 pm Cold Within by Leah Claire (PG)
Reccing a fic by Leah Claire take two. She didn't actually rate this fic, so I had to take a wild stab in the dark.

Fandom: QUEER AS FOLK: US
Pairing: Brian/Justin
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] darksylvia
Author Website: if she loved us, she'd title her site
Why this must be read:

Besides the fact that she's one of the best QaF authors ever with great ideas and dead-on characterizations? Well, this story had me melted into a puddle of goo. I had no idea that a written kiss could be so hot. But, yeah. *goo*

So, even if you don't care one whit about QaF, you have to read this kiss.
