12:58 am I Won't Sleep Tonight by chaoticallyclev (PG)
Fandom: THE VAMPIRE DIARIES
Pairing: Tyler/Jeremy
Length: 2700 words
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] chaoticallyclev
Author Website: Masterpost of Fanworks
Why this must be read: The author manages to successfully weave the fic into the canon timeline through 2X07 ("Masquerade") in a way that feels natural. The Tyler-voice, with his particular brand of dickishness, is spot-on. I actually feel like these could be deleted scenes from Tyler's POV - if we ever had scenes at the high school anymore, haha.

12:25 pm A Spinning Carousel by tokenblkgirl (PG-13)
Fandom: THE VAMPIRE DIARIES
Character/Pairing: Bonnie-centric
Length: 1435 words

Author Website: Master Fic List and author tag at her shared fic comm ([livejournal.com profile] blue_skies_fic).
Why this must be read: This story does a fantastic job of exploring Bonnie's state of mind after the death of her grandmother, her feelings of displacement and resentment. It's genuinely touching, and manages to convey important issues in most of her relationships in few words. Token has repeatedly demonstrated her excellent handle on Bonnie, and this is definitely my favourite of her TVD fic.

03:53 pm You're Not Supposed to Shower, (PG-13/Blue Cortina)
Hello, my name is [livejournal.com profile] culf and I'll be getting back behind the wheel of the cortina to tow the crack_van for Life on Mars this month.


Fandom:
LIFE ON MARS
Pairing: Sam Tyler, Gene Hunt
Length: 1,190

Why this must be read:


For fear of spoiling episode 1.04, I will have to be slightly vague in this description.
The fic is a missing scene from Sam's point of view after he's found handcuffed to the bed in 1.04. [livejournal.com profile] amy_wolf deals with the realities of what happened in a way the show didn't, without ever going against canon. It's heartbreaking, but reads very true to both the character and real life. Warnings for non-graphic implication of past canonical non-con.

Quote under cut for implications of canonical non-con )

07:55 pm A Bird on a Wire by ozmissage (pg-13)
Fandom: LOST
Characters/Pairings: Sawyer (Sawyer/Juliet, past Kate/Sawyer)
Length: 1,785 words
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] ozmissage
Author Website: Fic Masterlist
Why this must be read:

[livejournal.com profile] ozmissage goes a long way towards explaining and elaborating upon James' actions and motivation on the island during the sixth season. She provides insight into my favorite character that many of us fans felt was lacking during the final season of LOST. And simply, she writes one of the best Sawyer "voices" I've read.
