It's a look at Nate and Eliot's first anniversary, and the trials and tribulations of the day. And I must say thanks again to [livejournal.com profile] moonchildfic for such an awesome fic :-D

Hi, [livejournal.com profile] ashley_pitt here and I am a first time driver for NCIS this month. Sorry for the rather late start but the van is an automatic and I am used to a stick. For a long time my OTP was Gibbs/Ducky, but I have been branching out lately. My picks for this month will be a nice mix of the boys and some rarer pairings. So buckle up and get ready for a fun ride.



Fandom: NCIS
Pairing: Leroy Jethro Gibbs/ Donald “Ducky” Mallard
Length: 3697
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] nakeisha
Author Website: Partners Forever
Why this must be read: Long about three years ago I happily stumbled upon a Gibbs/Ducky story of [livejournal.com profile] nakeisha 's. and fell in love with the pairing and with her writing. Her stories epitomize the relationship so well. They are full of friendship, caring, love and those small intimate gestures. Here is a grand example.

08:42 pm Happy Pills by Sam (PG-13)
Fandom: LEVERAGE
Pairing: Hardison/Parker/Eliot
Length: Drabble

Author Website: Author profile on WWOMB
Why this must be read: Because this could so easily follow on from the end of 'The 12 Step Job'. Because it's wonderful and adorable and ouchy all at the same time. Because of the tiny details packed into such a short fic. Just because.

10:55 pm On Stone or Plaster by Keri T. (PG)
Fandom: STARSKY & HUTCH
Pairing: Starsky/Hutch
Length: 34k
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] keri1006
Author Website: Keri T on the Me & Thee archive
Why this must be read:

This is a gen story, but oh, the love.

This story takes place after the tag for the episode "Survival", in which Hutch is run off the road by the bad guys and trapped under his car in a canyon. Starsky is desperate to find him and has been told by the 'word on the street' that a contract was out on a cop and may have already been fulfilled. And once Starsky finds him, he's not planning on losing his friend to anything ever again.

Oh, sweetie, you have no idea how scared he was. We all were, but it was so much worse for Dave because he loves you so much. )

Hi guys! I'll be reccing Merlin for October. I apologize for the late start - have just started grad school and am still adjusting to the workload. :) I'm an unashamed multi-shipper and gen-lover, so expect to see all sort of recs this month with multiple pairings and hopefully a couple of genfics too.

Fandom: MERLIN
Pairing: Arthur/Merlin
Length: ~7,000
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] waldorph
Author Website: Masterlist of Fanfic

Why this must be read:

When Arthur is worried, it's easier to sit, tense in his chair watching the fire devour a log, and let Merlin voice those worries. Easier to let them hurtle from Merlin's lips and echo around the room until they become too much, and Arthur has to tell him to shut up, tell the fear and concern and worry to shut up. And Merlin will look at him, and there will be something like relief in his eyes; as though Arthur has made things better; as though he hears that in Arthur's command to shut up there is Merlin's own concern mirrored back.

This is a fantastic look at Arthur, smart and savvy to the burden involved in being the future ruler of Camelot. It showcases a side of his character that we see only glimpses of in the show (and more often in fanfic). And his slow, hesitant trust of Merlin and their fledging relationships unfolds at a teasing pace until the very end ,when it concludes most satisfyingly. Morgana's characterization and rapport with Arthur also work very well in the context of this piece. Highly recommended as an Arthur character piece.
