Why this must be read:
oh, good lord, I love this story. Basically, it's a retelling of the show's pre-series canon with the Winchesters as werewolves. Yes, werewolves. Sounds crazy, but Mel makes it work so well. Not only has she written a beautiful and amazing story, she's created an entire mythology, an entire *world* with these werewolves. Everything in this story is so vivid and real, has that touch of truth to it that makes it so unforgettable and original.

08:23 pm The Koyaanisqatsi Affair by Saklani (PG-13)

Fandom: THE MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E.
Pairing: Napoleon/Illya

Why this must be read:
I usually shy away from recommending something I was a beta on as I feel it looks too much like blowing one's own horn, but occasionally a story is just too good to skip This one by [livejournal.com profile] saklani2 is a good example.

Napoleon has stopped caring. Missions don't mean anything to him anymore, things just don't matter, so he has decided to leave U.N.C.L.E. -- to Illya's great unhappiness. Solo promises his partner that before he leaves he'll finish their current mission, which is on Hopi land. There he learns a new word - "Koyaanisqatsi” -
meaning "life out of balance." That sums up Napoleon's feelings perfectly. Now if he or Illya only knew how to get the balance back...

08:42 pm Melt Like Lemon Drops by Te (PG)
Fandom: DC COMICS
Pairing: Uh...is that a trick question?

Why this must be read:

Because this story is the finest of crack. I mean, it's like the crackiest crack that ever cracked in crackdom. And because this is the DC universe, it doesn't even have to involve any penguins or wings or mpreg to be that cracky. It's just...identity porn of the best kind. And it has glitter. How can a story that involves glitter be bad? (Don't answer that, it was rhetorical.)

I know Te's fic isn't to everyone's taste, but trust me, give this story a try. She knows these characters inside and out and this story shows it, even through all the crack. Did I mention the crack? And the glitter? ::coughs:: Please, just read it, okay? I'm not sure there's any way to describe it, really.
