Fandom: SUPERNATURAL/BONES Pairing: Sam/Dean Length: Appx 1,800 words Author on LJ: ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif) chashAuthor Website: with_a_kayWhy this must be read: chash has Bones' voice down so completely you can actually hear it. And this is no easy feat; there's a reason that you don't often see Bones fanfic. Beyond that, she gets Bones and Booth right, their banter is perfect and well-timed and you can't help but feel like you're listen to an episode. Also, it has what may be one of the single best lines in any fic ever: "No. Having a therapist on our double date with gay brothers would not make it better."But What Are Your Thoughts on Yaoi? | | |

Title: If It Could Be Held Pairing: Tony Stark/Patrick Jane Author on LJ: cerebelAuthor Website: ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif) cerebel_ficsWhy this must be read:For reasons that are likely obvious, movie!Tony gets crossed over a lot, and he gets paired up mostly with the smartest characters from other fandoms. Sam Carter, Kaylee Frye, Bruce Wayne, Gregory House. The engineers, a lot of the time, but also the ones with wicked wit and charm, the ones that are a match for Tony in the way that he likes. In this case, Tony's verbal poker partner is Patrick Jane, who spends a lot of time on his own show being tortured, too smart for his own good, and driving pretty girls crazy. Sound familiar? The author nails what would be fun about this matchup, and then some. Stark flicks an eyebrow. “What do you consult on, Mr. Jane?”
So Stark did remember his name, from the introductions earlier. “This and that,” says Jane. “Does your nice house make you feel guilty?”
“No,” says Stark. “Do people hold it against you that you’re so handsome?”
“No,” returns Jane. “Do people hold it against you that you sold weapons to terrorists for most of your adult life?”If It Could Be Held | | |

Fandom: DOCTOR WHO Pairing: Implied Doctor/Nyssa and Doctor/Turlough Length: One-shot Warnings: Spoilers for most of the Fifth Doctor era Author on LJ: neutralalienistAuthor Website: Master list of fanficWhy this must be read:Peri stumbles across the Doctor's bedroom and finds a box of letters she probably should not read, but as the reader we're glad she did, because they reveal so much about what the Fifth Doctor thinks and feels about his companions, from Adric to Turlough and everyone in between. Four letters, all written in an impeccable Five!voice, that are all (as the title implies) both sweet and sorrowful. If you wish the Fifth Doctor had a chance to properly say goodbye to his companions, this certainly might make it better. ( short excerpt under the cut )Sweet Sorrow - Mood: cheerful

Fandom: SMALLVILLE Pairing: Chloe Sullivan/Clark Kent (though it's really more gen than anything) Length: ~10,000 Author on LJ: tobywolf13Author Website: Effulgent and Smoking Cool Why this must be read:This is a recently posted story that was written for the Valentine's Day Round of secret_chlark. tobywolf13 had the prompts of Chloe as Lori Lemaris, an AU setting, and an appearance by the Martin Manhunter. Not exactly the easiest prompts, but the story she came up with is awesome. Despite being an AU, the characters are still very much themselves. The plot is interesting, and incorporates elements from the current season of the show (a feat I think). The story is also full of tobywolf's dialogue. She does some of the best dialogue: there's that mixture of pop culture and turn of phrases that's very customary of the show. All in all it's an excellent story and I highly recommend it.

Title: The Lipstick Mafia Pairing: Fraser/Kowalski Author on LJ: runpunkrunAuthor Website:Why this must be read:Because it's hilarious. Fraser would disagree but ... it is. "Hold on." I edge around until I'm standing between him and the kitchen. "The mob. You got the mob after you?"
He perks up like he forgot I was there. "Not the mob in the definitive sense, no. I was simply beset by a mob in the more general sense, an unspecified group carrying no association with..."
