06:15 pm Small Lives Awake by Jessamie's Evil Twin (R)
Fandom: THE X-FILES
Pairing: Mulder/Scully
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] jetfic
Author Website: JET has moved all fic to the [livejournal.com profile] jetfic LJ

Why this must be read: Most any story by JET is comfort fic for me (no matter how strange spooky it might be). This story is at the top of the list. Set at Thanksgiving in the small, Midwestern town where Charlie Scully makes his home and featuring the whimsical touches and delightful description JET is famous for, this story gives Mulder and Scully some badly needed down time. In turn, it gives the reader multiple delights, including snappy M&S dialogue, a fond portrait of Small Town U.S.A. at both its most down-to-earth and eccentric and a delicate examination of what makes a family, and how Mulder and Scully deal with that exotic phenomenon.

Sometimes a car is her favorite toy: she's bulleting through the world, cannon-shot with silver fins and the American flag streaking against the eye. )

A sequel set in the December following this memorable Thanksgiving is here.

08:43 pm Doc-A-Zulu by Cincoflex (PG)
Fandom: HOUSE
Pairing: None
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] cincoflex
Author Website: House Index
Why this must be read: This is, by in large, a serious fandom. That's not necessarily a bad thing - there are some fandoms I know of that could probably use some seriousness - but sometimes you just want to read some pure, uncut crack, which this fandom hasn't produced a great deal of. I consider that to be a pity, but it does make what has been written in that vein even sweeter.

This piece is worth your time for the costume descriptions alone, and the dialogue is both a complete blast to read and very true to the characters. Go on. I promise it won't hurt.

09:30 pm The Absolutely. . . True (Sort Of) Fictional Adventures of Hot Pilots. . . by widget285 (NC-17)
Fandom: BATTLESTAR GALACTICA 2003
Pairing: Kara/Lee
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] widget285
Author Website: The Widgeteria
Why this must be read: It all began when someone asked "What if Lee and Kara got their hands on fanfic?" Well, [livejournal.com profile] widget285 ran with that and created some wonderfully characterful crack!fic that's heavy on humour and smut. While the romantic focus is on Kara and Lee, there's plenty of opportunity for the the rest of the cast to shine, from Kat and Gaeta to Racetrack and Hot Dog. If you've ever giggled over your fanfic habit (as an author or a reader), you're in for a treat with this funny, sexy, smart and silly story!

11:57 pm Dressing Down by Gigi Siclair (R)
Fandom: NCIS
Pairing: Gibbs/DiNozzo, McGee/Sciuto
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] gigitrek
Author Website: Gigi Sinclair's Slash Emporium
Why this must be read:

A hilarious glimpse into Gibbs and Tony's relationship as it enters a new stage.

Gibbs's fourth marriage sneaked up on him. He didn't even realize he was in it until he opened the drawer in his nightstand and, instead of pulling out one of eight pairs of identical, immaculately folded white underpants, he found a pair of black bikini briefs, with a cartoon Dalmatian on the front and the words "Doggy Style" on the back.
