12:13 am Denial is Not Just a River in Egypt by Rebelcat (R)
Fandom: STARSKY & HUTCH
Pairing: Starsky/Hutch
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] myrebelcat
Author Website: Rebelcat’s Starsky & Hutch Fanfic

Why this must be read:

Can you keep a secret? Starsky and Hutch are gay!

Wait a moment, you say, that’s not much of a secret, especially in a slash fic. Ah, but the individual who doesn’t know this secret and why he never will, makes this a very different story indeed. In fact, this is one of the funniest, smartest, and boldest tackling of how sexual orientation is defined within S & H slash that I’ve ever read.

If none of that is reason enough, you’ll just have to read it for the wonderful characterization, unusual cameo appearances (the horny spider plant is my personal favorite), and brilliant metaphors that will leave you smiling hours after you’ve finished the story.

Why this must be read:
I couldn't let a month of DC recs go by without including a sex pollen story, could I? That wouldn't be right. *g*

12:39 pm How Much Salt by voleuse (R)
(Deleted and reposted. *facepalm*)

Fandom: HOUSE
Pairing: Wilson/Cameron
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] voleuse
Author Website: A Work in Progress
Why this must be read:

Wilson/Cameron is a very rare pairing in this fandom. It's also one that makes me *extremely* happy with all it's passive-agression and amorality and general pretty. This is short and dark and absolutely gorgeously written. [livejournal.com profile] voleuse has a way with words, and it will leave you breathless.

03:54 pm Road Trip by Cassie, Mog and Maggie (PG13)
Fandom: THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN
Pairing: None
Author on LJ:Unknown
Author Website: Unknown
Why this must be read:

ATF

One person asked me to rec a story with Vin in it, and although everything on my rec list features Ezra, this one also has a good helping of Vin.

It's silly, but it has me giggling every time I read it. There's just a perfect mix of laugh out loud humor and wonderful characterization, and with Mog involved, with whom the entire ATF AU began, you can't go wrong :)

04:34 pm Handful of Dust by Anne Ellis (Adult)
Fandom: Doctor Who
Pairing: 5/8
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] anellis
Author's Website: N/A
Why this must be read:

This story must be read because it proves that Doctor/Doctor slash can, in fact, be done well.

10:12 pm Things Not Dreamed by stargazercmc (G
Fandom: STARGATE SG1
Pairing: None
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] stargazercmc
Author Website: [livejournal.com profile] gazerfic
Why this must be read: Stargate is about amazing friendships at it's core. This story is an absolutely beautiful exploration of the friendship between Daniel and Sam and Jack. Sam and Jack need to fly. Daniel doesn't quite understand it. This is the story of Daniel trying to understand. The characterization is fantastic and Daniel's observations are wonderful. A lovely, lovely story.

10:47 pm Variant by Jamjar (PG)
Fandom: DC COMICS
Pairing: None

Why this must be read:
This gen Timfinity story is a dark AU, not my usual preference in this fandom, but because canon brings so much pain to these heroes, it's appropriate to acknowledge that. This story is nightmarish, and it hurts my Tim and Kon-loving fangirl heart. But it's a great story.

Author's Summary: Made and manufactured by the good people at Cadmus... Now, a Tim Drake for every occasion. And all dysfunctional and creepy in their own, special way!

11:47 pm Unsingable Name by Cerebel (NC-17)
Fandom: HEROES
Pairing: Mohinder Suresh/Gabriel Gray (aka Sylar)
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] cerebel_fics
Author Website: profile page with round-up list
Why this must be read:

Revenge and obsession and a connection that won't be broken. This is a brilliant extrapolation of what could happen after the final confrontation in New York.

“I’ve found you.”

Sylar stirs sleepily, against the straps clasping his wrists to the hospital bed. He jerks awake when he sees the syringe in Mohinder’s hand.

“You always do,” says Sylar. His heart thuds in his chest, and he thinks maybe – maybe there’s no way out, this time.
