Fandom: MISCELLANEOUS JOHNNY DEPP MOVIES (Edward Scissorhands) Pairing: Edward/OFC Author on LJ: vanillafluffyAuthor Website: at fanfiction.netWhy this must be read:If you read "Lonesome Confectioner Seeks True Love," you know that Mary Sue Ledbetter found love elsewhere than in the arms of Mr. Wonka. This is that story. It's short, humorous, and you'll enjoy it. EDWARD SCISSORHANDS at IMDBMarching boldly through the wrought-iron gates which stood conveniently ajar, she raised one perfectly plucked eyebrow at the sight of a thriving herd of topiary hippotomi. Promising herself that if the door was answered by Riff-Raff, she would flee, screaming, Mary Sue climbed the steps to the front door of the über-gothic mansion. She was not disappointed to find a big bronze knocker rather than a perfectly ordinary doorbell, or something equally outré.Mary Sue Sells Mary Kay | | |

fandom: Popslash pairing: GSF author on lj: giddygeek author website: The Geekdom why this must be read: This is a wonderful story, full of warmth and humor, about the guys staying connected even though they are no longer a band. Giddy's dialogue is funny and all about love. "Aaaw, it's just like old times," Chris said. He had taken the time to dress. Really dress. He was wearing jeans, a turtleneck, a sweatshirt, socks, sneakers--the whole deal. Armor, JC thought, and sighed. "How long have you all been here, thirty seconds? and we're already bickering. This is great, no, really, when are you leaving?"
"It's good to see you too," Joey said. "Get your ass over here."
Chris wasn't big on hugs, but he came down the stairs and let Joey wrap him up for a little while anyway, then slung an arm around Lance's shoulder and patted his back. Justin, he punched. "You gonna take your coat off, fucker?" he asked, and Justin relaxed all at once, smiling and loose and stripping off the coat and gear.
"I didn't want to overstay my welcome," he said, and Chris punched him again.
"You were never welcome," he said. "But now that you're here, I guess you can hang around awhile. C'mon. I'll make coffee."

Fandom: NCIS Pairing: Gibbs/DiNozzo Author on LiveJournal: crimsonquills Author's website: www.crimsonquills.com Why this must be read: Several of my favorite works by this author have been recced already, but I don’t feel a rec-list would be complete without something by her on it. The first of this pair of stories is pure Abby enthusiasm for her target/subject: ( snippet from Milkshakes )The second is Tony’s initially unenthusiastic follow-through: Things heat up considerably from this point forward in Nix’s typically evocative style. Slake your thirst on Milkshakes and Coffee Induced Reality. | | |

Fandom: MISCELLANEOUS JOHNNY DEPP MOVIES (From Hell) Pairing: none Author on LJ: evilmissbeckyAuthor Website:at fanfiction.netWhy this must be read: Miss Becky deftly and movingly explores the relationship between Abberline and Godley in this short, poignant piece. Godley would do anything for Abberline, but he finds he must refuse this one simple request, even if he loses Abberline's friendship forever. FROM HELL at IMDBHe couldn’t help it. It was a strange thing, the friendship he shared with Abberline. They did not go to the pub and have a few drinks. They had not gone to the theater in over two years, not since Victoria’s death. They did not share secrets or even talk much outside of work. But Abberline was Godley’s closest friend, and he would have unhesitatingly laid down his life for the man, if anyone had ever asked him to.A Simple Request | | |

Fandom: MISCELLANEOUS JOHNNY DEPP MOVIES (From Hell) Pairing: none Author on LJ: vanillafluffyAuthor Website:at fanfiction.netWhy this must be read: It's a deft adaptation of A Christmas Carol, with Abberline having visions. Which he would, after all. *g* Vanillafluffy always delivers. FROM HELL at IMDB"I'm expected elsewhere, or I'd love to," said Abberline, wondering what he could surprise the Godleys with. Himself, he decided. He'd be a surprise all by himself. After finding the bruised and welted child at Lung Jin's, just as he'd seen her with Gull, he had to wonder if he really was going to receive stockings and handkerchiefs from them. If he did, he just might have to rethink his night's adventures. Perhaps it wasn't a dream, or perhaps dreams could come true.A Song of the Green Fairy | | |

Fandom: STARGATE ATLANTIS Pairing: Teyla/Rodney Author on LJ: siriaeve Author Website: siriaeve / fanfictionWhy this must be read:An intriguing mystery, a slowly unfurling romance, and gorgeous writing, this story is a must read for anyone with an interest in either Teyla or Rodney. She knew why he wanted to leave; there was nothing there he could repair, no way for him to make himself useful, nothing for either of them to do here but wait, and it had been six days now. Teyla had perhaps a little more faith than Rodney that the others would find them—faith in the almost inhuman stubbornness that both John and Ronon seemed to possess when it came to the members of their team, faith that Dr Weir would authorise a rescue mission as soon as Dr Zelenka tracked the jumper's emergency beacon, faith even in the subcutaneous transmitters which Dr Beckett had insisted that all of them have injected.Waylaid | | |
