Why this must be read:I was planning to leave you with Sue's sizzling latest pwp but I was unable to find it and was disappointed.

Fandom: LIFE ON MARS Pairing: Test Card Girl, Sam, Gene, Chris, Ray, Annie, Phyllis Length: 1,778 Author on LJ: darthfi Author Website: MasterlistWhy this must be read: Last rec by me this month, and I just had to rec a fic about Test Card Girl, who is my favorite character in the show. The story is written by one half of fiandyfic , also known as the duo that writes the darkest stories in the Life on Mars fandom. For this fic, however, the darkness has been abandoned. It's based on the concept of Test Card Girl being real and visible to everyone in 1973. It's very funny and has a great twist towards the end. Don't you like me with my clown? | | |

Hi all! I'm anjali_organna , and I'll be your Merlin driver for the month. First up, a little humorous look at everyone's favorite fake!Arthur. Fandom: MERLIN Pairing: William/Everyone (he wishes), some background A/G Length: one-shot Author on LJ: selenak Author Website: Her AO3 page Why this must be read: Selena takes a one-episode guest-star and spins a hilarious yarn about a simple country farmer brought to the big-er-town of Camelot for a fairly ridiculous switcheroo with a certain Prince of the realm. While William was played as a buffoon on the show, Selena digs a little deeper to show us a man who knows he's playing a ridiculous role and accepts it for the wild, once-in-a-lifetime ride it is. Her William is funny and observant while still retaining the elements of charm that marked the character on the show. Also, he amusingly develops a crush on pretty much everyone he meets, hence the pairing(s). Since [Arthur] was in a good mood, William felt emboldened to ask something he’d missed asking the day before.
“Err, Sire,” he said, “are knights bad losers?”
“Yes,” Merlin said promptly.
“No,” Arthur said, elbowing his servant.
“Because if you keep winning, I’ll be sharing quarters with a lot of people who think I threw them in the dust today,” William said meaningfully.
“They’ll celebrate you as a worthy opponent,” Arthur said. “It would be dishonourable to do anything else.”
“Like using enchanted snakes,” Merlin muttered. “That never happens.” The Lay of Sir William of Daira | | |

This is my fourth time driving the Crack Van for due South, and I'm glad to be back! I promise to bring you lots of variety, and I'll start off with a piece of Vecchio-centric gen. Fandom: DUE SOUTH Characters: Ray Vecchio, Pop Vecchio, Benton Fraser Length: 500 words Author on LJ: vienna_waitsAuthor Website: AO3 pageWhy this must be read: Ray's father's ghost appears for the first time, and Ray does exactly the opposite of what his father tells him to do. I love how it feels like Ray's defiance is both because he's revolting against his father's authority, and because Ray is genuinely a better man than his father was. Also, there's some great description that puts you right in the scene. Fork | | |

Hi there, I'm talkingtothesky and I've stolen the keys to the Cortina this month to give you a guided tour of some of the wonderful fic Life on Mars fandom has to offer. Fandom: LIFE ON MARS Pairing: Sam Tyler/Gene Hunt Length: 1,202 Author on LJ: finkpishnets, writing journal is ivoryxandxgold Author Website: lj fic masterlist Why this must be read: Because it has a unique, almost-poetic style and a hushed, mysterious atmosphere. Because it takes the theory that Sam has time-travelled and weaves it into a beautiful, bittersweet tale of love and separation. “There's theories, lots of them. All ridiculous of course. But I guess I just...am.”
A teasing quirk of the lips, a smile in the eyes. “Trust you to make life complicated.”
“I can't help it, guv, I am by nature a mystery.” A Transition In Time | | |
