12:43 pm tomorrow's dust (flares into breath) by spamdilemma (PG)
Fandom: BATTLESTAR GALACTICA
Pairing: Zak/ Kara, Lee/ Kara
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] spamdilemma
Author Website: LJ Memories
Why this must be read: This is a gorgeous look at Lee from Zak's perspective: Lee who is always older, and sometimes wiser, admired, resented, and loved.

"When you're eight, Lee's twelve, and when you're twelve, Lee's sixteen; and when you're sixteen, you skip class and duck behind the auditorium for a smoke. It's fifth period and empty (the regulars having gotten their fix during lunch), and you study the wall that makes up the back of the building, graffiti covering every bit of surface. Some of it is good, verging on art; but most of it is careless and tired. Curse words and bad poetry, declarations of love everlasting."

06:34 pm So Sweet a Changeling by Petra (NC-17)
Fandom: DC COMICS
Characters/Pairing[s]: Barbara/Dick, Dick/Tim; Oracle/Robin,
Batman/Robin
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] petronelle
Author Website: Dignity. Always dignity.
Why this must be read:

Because it's wonderful. OK, I'll try to be a little more specific than that.

[livejournal.com profile] petronelle being an excellent writer, any story that she wrote about the Batman/Robin dynamic would be well worth reading. So would Dick/Tim, Barbara/Dick, or a tale about the psyches of the Batfamily. So would any AU Petra wrote, since she adroitly follows changes out to their ramifications in a way that both shows the reader a new world and unobtrusively but clearly includes all the connections to and comments upon the old.

This story? Does all of the above, beautifully, and there's far more to it than even that.

10:31 pm Love In The Time of Cauliflower by monimala (NC-17)
Fandom: GILMORE GIRLS
Pairing: Lorelai/Dean, implied Dean/Jess
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] monimala
Author Website: http://malisita.com/
Why this must be read:

I have such a weakness for Lorelai/Dean. They have an effortless chemistry together- one that you maybe shouldn’t notice, but is definitely there. This story is delightful- nasty in all the right ways and very, very funny. Not to mention seriously hot. It’s as wicked and strangely appealing as the pairing that inspired it.
