Pairing: Fraser/Vecchio

Why this must be read:

This is another of my very favorite dS fics, and another one I'm thrilled to be able to rec—it completely sold me on Fraser/Vecchio even before the show had managed to. It reads amazingly like an episode: SDW's Fraser and Ray voices are fantastic, and there's Dief and Dead!Bob and a stakeout and a bizarre imprisonment and a running joke about loquats and possible nefarious activities on the part of Girl Scouts, and I lost count of the number of times I laughed out loud while reading it. And then, running underneath all of that, there's a sweet, swoon-inducing love story—illustrating at every turn just how well these guys know each other, how well they work together, how bad they want each other, and how unsure they are of exactly what to do about that—culminating in a breathtaking slow burn of a first time. Which, of course, makes it even better than an episode.

03:08 pm Heaven Can Wait, Can't It? by Katherine Robertson (G)
Fandom: STARSKY AND HUTCH
Pairing: Starsky/Hutch
Author on LJ: unknown
Author Website: www.starskyhutcharchive.com
Why this must be read:

OK, this is total, complete, utter crack. I can't even make an excuse, except that I like it, so there *g*.

The premise: Starsky is in heaven, an angel, awaiting his beloved Hutch.

An excerpt wouldn't really do it justice, I think. Just go read it, and smile.

(oh, and if anyone has more info on the author, feel free to comment... I don't think she's in the fandom anymore)

Pairing: Viggo/Orlando

Why this must be read:

And now for something a little different. I started out in the fandom reading Viggorli, and I have since moved on. But some stories stick with you, and this is one of them.

The authors called it different. They weren't kidding about different. I don't think I've read anything quite like this before, the narration, the concept. It's...POWERFUL. Wow.


“Oh no,” she muttered as she blinked at the screen a few times, the scene becoming more clear. It was a young man sitting on a bed in a dimly lit room, just in his boxers. She gulped and he turned his head to look toward the camera almost as if he had heard her. A view of his face showed that he was young, probably only in his early twenties.

“Don’t,” he sighed in a low, velvety voice that sent shivers down the girl’s spine. He had a troubled look on his face, brows knit and lower lip between his teeth uncertainly. “Come on, don’t.”

He was long and lithe, knees up against his chest, arms wrapped tightly around himself. A pang of familiarity ran through the girl's body, but she couldn't quite place the young man.

His skull was nearly bare; the sides naked and the very top adorned with long curly mahogany hair. It would have looked silly on anyone else, but itjust added to the exotic quality of the man. His eyes were a deep brown, and though the video quality wasn't that great, she could tell he was flushing madly.

10:56 pm How (NC-17) by afra_schatz and irrlicht74
Fandom: LORD OF THE RINGS RPS
Pairing: Orlando/Eric
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] afra_schatz & [livejournal.com profile] irrlicht74

Why this must be read:

Once you're in LOTR RPS awhile, you'll learn that there are a few one-degree removed real people who have sort of moved in and taken up residence with the rest of the crazies. One of these is Eric Bana. He was in Troy and Black Hawk Down with Orlando Bloom.

How is an early version of a roleplay fic, but I find myself reading this again and again, so I thought I'd give it a rec. Eric and Orlando wake up in a hotel room together. That's it. Hee! I just LOVE the internal voices - it makes it all worth while. The characters leap off the screen. And, well, it's flippin' HAWT too.

A taste to tempt you:

Orlando was blushing furiously and attempted to move off Eric, but the Australian's hand was quicker, moving up to rest loosely on the Brit's thigh. It stopped Orlando from going anywhere and Eric's tone was soothingly casual when he said: “Now, don't I recall correctly that I owe you a favour?” Brown eyes met equally dark ones again: “Got anything in mind?”

Orlando’s heart skipped a beat. Or maybe two. Or three. Or even four. He didn’t know. And he didn’t care either.

Got anything in mind? No. Not really. His mind had gone blank the moment Eric had rested his hands on his thigh. Warm, strong yet oh so gentle hands...The whole situation made his head spinning. And...

Had he heard what he thought he’d heard? Eric hadn’t just made him an unequivocal offer to...Yeah, what? A hand job? A blow job perhaps? Sex?

Ngh.

11:17 pm The Tattoo series (NC-17) by darknight999 and linden_jay
Fandom: LORD OF THE RINGS RPS
Pairing: Viggo/Karl
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] darknight999 and [livejournal.com profile] linden_jay
Author Website: [livejournal.com profile] darknight999
Why this must be read:

In the beginning Viggo and Karl are casual lovers, but Karl's gotten a little too invested. He goes and does something crazy - but Viggo still doesn't see it. Viggo is really thick-headed. Poor Karl's love is unrequited. And who brings them together? God help us all - DENNIS HOPPER. This is not a joke. This is a VERY well written series of short stories that all form one arc. And Dennis is probably the best supporting character EVER.

2 - Clueless - http://darknight999.livejournal.com/54050.html
