Why this must be read:
How to explain this story? It's really quite cute and I don't think I can do it justice.
Short version:
Jayne is in the infirmary drugged to the gills. The female crew members take advantage of this to sneak a peek.

“I told him Jayne was a girl’s name,” River explained lucidly.  “He said he had man-bits, offered to show me.  Simon was there.”

“Oh.” Zoe breathed a little easier.

“That does sound like something Jayne would say,” Kaylee replied.  “He can’t take it back now.”

“Because he’s unconscious.”

“He did offer.

Fandom: DOCTOR WHO
Pairing: Doctor/Rose
Length: 3,819
Author on LJ: [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]
Author Website: Master Fic List
Why this must be read:

Because this author turns the Fuck-or-Die cliche on its head and come up with this hot, and funny, yet somehow wonderfully sweet one-shot. I loved how frustrated Rose and the Doctor were at not being able to touch one another, it's something that is very central to their relationship and their sadness of not being able to hug or hold hands (at least for a little while) is very well done.

09:11 pm Like a fish needs a bicycle by netgirl_y2k PG-13
Fandom: Merlin
Pairings: none, Morgana, Arthur
Length: 8900
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] netgirl_y2k
Why this fic must be read: I love this look at Merlin and Arthur's relationship and Morgana's actual standing/place at court. The bickering and snark with Arthur is great and due to the author's writing I'd love to ship Morgana/Vivian. The story is a mixture of humourous and bittersweet and well worth a read.

In which Morgana is the gayest person in Camelot, Uther wants a wedding, Arthur tries to be helpful, Gwen's wasted on men and Vivian getting hit by that love spell ruins everything.

10:30 pm Before the Devil Knows You're Dead by thevinegarworks (PG-13)
Fandom: SUPERNATURAL
Pairing: Dean/Castiel (minor)
Length: ~ 25,237 words
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] thevinegarworks
Author Website: Master List of Ficcery
Why this must be read: Because Chuck has a vision of Dean's death ... and Castiel's holding the smoking gun, or more accurately, the bloody knife in this case. Of course no one believes it can be true, but at the same time, Chuck's visions have proven to be pretty accurate and can't be discounted. We all know how much Winchesters love to sacrifice themselves when family's on the line.

Told through multiple points of view, the story inches towards the inevitability of the vision while the boys (with help from Bobby, Chuck, and Cas) try everything to change the future. Dean and Castiel's relationship grows along with the tension and the plot unfolds with a layered intricacy that captures the characters and their relationships so well.

'I said to you once, Dean - all roads lead to the same destination.' )

11:47 pm Saving Grace by catwalksalone (Teen and Up)
Fandom: NCIS
Pairing: Tony/Tim
Length: 2,900

Author Website: http://archiveofourown.org/users/catwalksalone/pseuds/catwalksalone
Why this must be read:

There are several things I like about this story, we aren’t asked to believe that both the boys are straight and suddenly consumed with overwhelming passion for each other. I can also see the episode they talk about being one that makes Tim need to talk. Plus, I think it’s a nice exploration of an alternate mode of Tim/Tony dynamics.
