02:32 am Medusa by kHo (R)
Fandom: SMALLVILLE
Pairing: Jason/Genevieve
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] khohen1
Author Website: LJ Smallville Fic Tag
Author Warning: Teaguecest. See that 'cest'? That means incest. But it's canon, nearly, so it's okay.
Why this must be read: There is an elegance to this story that seduces and mesmerizes a reader and of all the possible dirty! bad! and wrong! combinations in SV, this one is so close to canon it is scary. Jason was ultimately a puppet, and this character study makes it plain in a very dark and unsettling way just who was pulling his strings. And that last line? Simply brilliant. Poor Jason. He never had a chance.

Excerpt:

It had never mattered. Nothing he had ever done, said, or thought, had ever mattered. It always ended in her smiling at him, that patronizing ‘it’s okay baby boy’ look in her eyes. She just always knew how to do it. How to make him forget every reason why this was wrong, everything he hated about her. Everything he hated about himself.

Why this must be read:
7 ways Jack didn't say or did say goodbye. Stories with good characterization for Jack is sometimes hard to find for me, so I love finding it. I enjoyed reading all of these, in particular In Which Various People Snipe, Lie, and Debate the Meaning of Life. I am a sucker for good dialogue and this has it. It was fun to read all seven.

Fandom: STARSKY AND HUTCH
Pairing: Starsky & Hutch
Length: 30k

Why this must be read:

A post-Bloodbath fic, wherein a guilt-ridden White Knight is a gorgeous, gorgeous Hutch.

His rescued partner needs to rescue him right back in one of the best examples of how much these two men care about each other.

And the memory of a single pair of sunglasses hooks you into this loving, touching story.


"Hutch?" He took himself forward to his partner's right side and placed an enquiring hand on his back as he tried to read the tense profile. "Hey," he called softly, "you in there?"

In answer a hand came out and took hold of his right wrist, which he had rested on the counter next to Hutch's.

"Just give me a minute," Hutch's voice was strangled and Starsky's heart pitched sideways to hear it. Now it was his turn not to fully understand. He bit down as his wrist began to pulse under Hutch's grip, but there was a reason for this in that blond head, so he would shut up and stay where he was for however many minutes Hutch might need.

He kept his voice light and eased closer. "Whatever you say, buddy." He began to move his left hand up and down Hutch's back in what he hoped was a soothing gesture.

It came to him then, in the quiet of his kitchen with the two of them locked in this strange tableau, that it was Hutch who had had the harder time, not him. He had been knocked out and tied up by a bunch of weirdos with a bear and an odd taste in fashion, but his obstacles had all been practical. Escape and survive, survive and escape. One foot in front of the other.

But the same could not be said of Hutch. From the little Dobey had told him near the ambulance, and the lot he already knew about Marcus, it seemed that Hutch had been cut adrift in a nightmare. Left without a map in a world where the rules of kidnapping and normal human behavior no longer applied. A world where all Hutch had to cling to were the mind games of a madman and, knowing his partner, the certainty that he would fail. Starsky began to understand. He began to understand the haunted look and why his wrist was being held.

A long breath shook its way out of the bowed head and he took his cue.

"Hey, I'm here. Not goin' anywhere."

08:05 pm Undercurrents by Izzie (PG)
Fandom: STARSKY AND HUTCH
Pairing: Starsky & Hutch
Length: 41k

Why this must be read:

Hutch has a bad back. While in the show, he makes various references to having a bad back, it's not always clear whether he's being serious or telling white lies. In one third-season episode, "Partners", there is verification that he's sprained his back after Starsky crashes the Torino and sends them both to the hospital. However, there doesn't seem to be any other reasoning for him having one.More pondering and an excerpt behind the cut )
