Why this must be read:

Yuletide produced many fabulous QAFUK stories this year, and this is one of the best. It chronicles Stuart and Vince's relationship before and after canon, showing us the things we don't get to see and filling in the gaps in a very believable fashion.

06:07 pm It's Always Darkest by Cerebel (NC17)
Fandom: BATTLESTAR GALACTICA 2003
Pairing: Caprica Six/Boomer
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] cerebel
Author Website: none
Why this must be read: Cerebel gets inside the head of Boomer and her relationship with Hera and why she doesn't quite fit, despite wanting to mother Hera. The first time Boomer heard Hera cry, her heart broke. This fic also explores the relationship of Boomer and Caprica Six and how their destinies also don't quite fit. The story weaves perfectly through canon.

Why this must be read:

This is another one of the great QaFUK fics given to us by Yuletide this year. It would spoil it to give away the crossover in this fic, but it's a fun post-canon romp through America with Stuart and Vince. I love the mood of the fic, and the dialogue is spot on.

09:57 pm Reaching Past the Sky by Amy (PG)
Fandom: STARGATE SG-1
Pairing: None

Why this must be read:

Amy does an excellent job of weaving a real world event that no doubt would have had a significant impact on Sam, considering her dreams of NASA and going into space, into an engaging and informative piece of Sam's backstory at the Academy.

Sam's voice is spot on in this, and her struggles with more than one failure and her fear of losing the future she had so meticulously planned is believable and poignantly Sam.

10:34 pm Search and Rescue by Kris (PG13)
Fandom: THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN
Pairing: None

Author Website: Unknown
Why this must be read:

This is one of those AU's that I didn't think I'd like. Mag7 is all about good vs evil, and with that you expect a certain theme, the best AU's take that fundamental aspect and then alter certain canon facts to fit it to the time frame the subject covers. In this AU it's the team against the elements. And strangely, because of the strength of the characters, and the ease at which the story flows the AU is carried off. This story is the first in a short series, all of which combine to create a very enjoyable and addictive set.
