Hello, I'm Shunda and I'll be supplying the Farscape crack this month. Now let's see how many times I can mention the word 'crack' in this post... Fandom: FARSCAPE Pairing: none Author on LJ: ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif) eve11Author Website: unknown Why this must be read:What I love about this story, and what Eve11 does so well, is weave plot and hilarity together in such a way that it comes across as extremely plausible in the Farscape universe. We've all mentioned at least once that the show writers must've been on the good crack when it comes to certain episodes. Eve11 has committed crackfic, and it is good. Spoilers for season 4 up to John Quixote. ( a little taste )A Sci-Fi Original | | |

Fandom: HARRY POTTER Pairing: Snape/Lockhart Author Website: Predatrix's Little Corner of the UniverseWhy this must be read:There's an old saying, if you want an enemy, choose a friend. They know where to hurt you. This story takes the opposite tack: If you need a friend, find an enemy. "You'll just have to be adventurous next time we do it. For now, be prompt."
"Oh Severus! You want me to come back!" Impulsively Lockhart flung his arms round him. Nipple rings rubbed painfully against Snape's own nipples, while scented face-paint rubbed against his cheek. "Nobody ever--that is, it's a brave creature who risks the pleasure overdose of having me twice. Armies of men--women--Veelas..."
"How unselective."Photo Perfect | | |

Fandom: HARRY POTTER Pairing: Snape/Lupin Author Website: Story found on Fanfiction.netWhy this must be read:A sudden interest in Muggle photography shows Snape how fully obsessed he is with Lupin. For the most part, he was ready to call the entire experiment a failure, when at the bottom of the pile he came across one snapshot that caught his attention. Albus Dumbledore was speaking to Professor Sprout just outside Greenhouse Seven. At first, there seemed to nothing special about the image, but Snape found himself mesmerized by it nonetheless. It was the only time in his recollection that the headmaster truly looked his age. Snape could clearly distinguish the lines that cut into his face and the sad glint in his crystal blue eyes. He looked tired. Fragile. He was the strongest wizard in the world, and he looked like he would crumble into dust.
Were this a wizard's photograph, the Dumbledore in the picture would be waving and giving that calculated nod he always gave when he chose to acknowledge your existence. But Dumbledore could not hide in the Muggle photograph. This one moment was captured for eternity, revealing everything he would have otherwise veiled from the rest of the world, because the rest of the world could never see that he was just a man. A tired, fragile, old man.Still Life | | |

Fandom: CSI: Crime Scene Investigation Pairing: Nick/Greg Author on LJ: carolinecraneAuthor Website: Desiderium CaritasWhy this must be read: Thought I'd throw in a multi-chapter one this month, and this one automatically came to mind, not only because Caroline's fics are pretty much starting from the beginning of this pairing, but because they are simply some of the best. This is another one of those 'casefile-then-they-fall-for-each-other' fics, but yet it's not, because how Nick finds out about everything Greg's into (and what's he not) and how he handles it is very in-character. There's humor, and it's just as dark (and shouldn't be as funny) as it is on the real show. "You know the vic."
Greg nodded and tilted his head a little as though he was trying to picture the body from another angle. "I haven't seen him in a long time, but I'm pretty sure that's Aaron."
"You can't even see his face," Nick said, frowning down at the body for a second before he looked up at Greg again. Some of the color was back in Greg's cheeks now, and if Nick didn't know better he'd almost think Greg was blushing. "What?"
"It's just…I've seen him from this angle. It's not like we did a lot of talking when we were together."
It took Nick a second to realize what Greg was saying, and when he did he felt his own cheeks flush bright red. At the Hour of Death - in four parts at WMTDB. | | |

Fandom: X-FILES Pairing: Mulder/Skinner Author on LJ: xanthestories and xantheljAuthor Website: XantheWhy this must be read: So much hotness. This is an AU set in a Middle Ages sort of time, and it features Skinner as a nobleman and Mulder as a traveler in distress. There are a lot of really delicious descriptions of the characters and their clothing, and the h/c is sexy. ( Story quote under the lj-cut )NovemberThe sequel: Spellbound | | |

Hi, I'm Stone Princess and I'll be your RPS recc'er for August. I'm really only in this fandom for dirty porn and pretty boys, so if you're looking for something else, I guess you need to look somewhere else. But really, who doesn't like dirty porn and pretty boys, right? Sit back and enjoy the ride. --- Fandom: RPS Pairing: Jared Padalecki/Jensen Ackles Author on LJ: scribblinlenoreAuthor Website: Lenore's StoriesWhy this must be read:Jensen Ackles is hot, like a hot hot thing. So is Jared Padalecki. Lenore is a great writer, who makes you feel more like you're right there with the boys, instead of in your room reading. Here she pulls them back to Texas and makes you feel it when they shake the Los Angeles right off them. PLus they are naughty and they might get caught. Oh yeah. You Break It, You Bought It, and Other Rules to Live By | | |

Fandom: DOCTOR WHO Pairing: Ten/Reinette Author on LJ: nostalgia_lj and thedorkygirl, otherwise known as... Author Website: steveanddave, but not necessarily in that order. Why this must be read:This was a spoiler fic written before the S2/28 episode The Girl in the Fireplace was transmitted, but it can still hold its own. Our authors tried (and succeeded) to portray just how screwed up a relationship between a Time Lord and a courtesan can be. One thing though, pay attention to the section titles, and all will be clear. ( Excerpt. )A Joie De La Viehi. i'm faith. i'm reccing doctor who this month, and i'm trying to rebuild my reputation around these parts. i'm one of those noobie fans, but i will do my best to rec a sampling of most everything i have my hands on, including the two main parings going around nowadays, but small ships and our captain jack will also be prominently featured. :) - Mood: drained
 - Music: DCFC - I Will Follow You Into The Dark

Fandom: LotRiPS Pairing: Viggo/Elijah Author on LJ: travellerAuthor Website: manifesto no. 2Why this must be read: I think I've recced something by traveller every time I've been behind the wheel of the van. I love the way this fic captures a kind of longing on Viggo's part for something that he used to have; something that Elijah has a bit of now. I enjoy the way New York is portrayed, like a character in its own right (and that's one of this author's talents -- taking cities, places and atmospheres and making them absolutely integral to the story). It's a fic that feels bittersweet without being either bitter or sweet. It's not simple, that's for sure. Viggo's thinking about being twenty and getting fucked in the bathroom at Irving Plaza during a Tom Waits show; he's thinking that there was a time when slumming had its own integrity. His hands are unbuttoning Lij's jeans.Apple | | |
