02:46 am Straight In A Gay Gay World by Allecto & Eddie (R)
Fandom: POPSLASH
Pairing: JC/Chris
Author on LJ:Allecto
Author Website: The Wall
Author Website: Entendre Intended
Why this must be read:Short and sweet, this one makes me smile ... everytime. Heh! I just can't give it a better rec than to say I've kept it at the top of my reading list for years just for the chuckles. Read Straight In A Gay Gay World. You may not believe it but you'll like it. ;;)


Btw, the authors have provided no rating so I judged on the side of caution.

12:03 pm Beyond the Sea by Suede Scripture (NC-17)
Fandom: LOTRIPS
Pairing: Billy Boyd/Dominic Monaghan
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] suede_scripture
Author Website: Fiction Archive
Why this must be read:

This is the Billy/Dom AU that blew all others out of the water. Billy is a cruise ship lounge singer, and Dom is the burnt out social worker that catches his eye. People have filled pages describing how wonderful this story is, but rather than do that I'd just ask you to read it yourself! Twenty chapters of the best writing and characterization in fandom.

(She's also just begun posting the WIP sequel, so check out her journal for that once you're done with this.)

02:36 pm The Fourth Year by Calligraphy (NC-17)
Fandom: HARRY POTTER
Pairing: Harry/Ginny, Harry/Snape
Author Website: Author's page at Skyhawke
Why this must be read:

This is one of my favorite Snape/Harry stories, bittersweet, funny and good to the last drop. After the War, with reasons for clemency and Azkaban closed due to the unreliability of Dementors, Snape's sentence is a life under house arrest with Harry as his reluctant jailor. Despite clashes over chores, cigarettes, and bad soap operas, they actually find a decent equilibrium... until one day, someone comes looking for Harry and finds a not-entirely reformed Death Eater instead:

He wasn't so fast as he used to be, but was still fast enough. He had the wand in one hand and the other around the wizard's throat before the man could form a protest.

He considered casting binding spells. That would be the way to do it: honorable, laudable, and forgivable. He couldn't form the words on his lips. His first spell in so many years wasn't going to be bloody Petrificus Totalus.

"Incendio," he hissed...

03:23 pm Suits by Beka Cavis (NC-17)
Fandom: NCIS
Pairing: Gibbs/DiNozzo/Todd
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] b_cavis
Author Website: B/Side: The Writings of Beka Cavis
Why this must be read: Two words... Hot. Threesome. Hot threesome! This PWP comes very, very close to pressing every single one of my NCIS buttons. The characters are well observed, with sharp, real edges that make this story much more than an easy sex romp. Best of all it's grown-up sex. Oh, I just revelled in the grown-up sex. This is the good stuff! Mmmmmm.

03:32 pm Care in the Holding by Lacey McBain (R)
Fandom: STARGATE: ATLANTIS
Pairing: McKay/Sheppard
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] laceymcbain
Author Website: Sticky Man Press
Why this must be read: Oh, I love this story so very, very much. John being all hands-on as he teaches Rodney to shoot hits my buttons so hard, I think I *broke* something the first time I read this. "Care in the Holding" is one of my all-time re-reading favourites in this fandom.

Fandom: STAR WARS
Pairing: minor Han/Leia, minor Luke/Mara
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] vikkir
Author Website: http://www.freewebs.com/swmina/
Why this must be read:

I can't believe no one's recced this story before! Mina takes the ending of ESB and branches off in an entirely new direction. Luke's secret is found out by Alliance High Command, who decide to execute him. Instead, Luke falls into the hands of the Emperor, leading Leia and Darth Vader to make a desperate alliance... one that changes the galaxy.

10:43 pm How Big a Ol' Boy Are Ye? by polly_b
Fandom: SENTINEL
Pairing: Jim/Blair
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] polly_b
Author Website: http://www.geocities.com/polly_bywater/index.html
Why this must be read: I like seeing the guys through fresh eyes, and Mary Pauline Rainwater is about as fresh as you can get. This is the third story in the series (the others are here and here), and Jim and Blair don't actually make an appearance, but Polly gives a glimpse of a possible future. I always end up reading this out loud, because Mary Pauline needs to be heard to get the full effect.

Come on over here thisaway.
