07:25 am Down to Zero by Draycevixen (Adult)
Fandom: THE PROFESSIONALS
Pairing: Bodie/Doyle
Length: ~ 5.700
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] draycevixen
Author Website: AO3, The Circuit Archive, The Automated Hatstand
Why this must be read:

This is one of my all time favorite stories, one of those stories you keep coming back once and again, never getting bored. It has everything I love: angst, misunderstandings, dutch courage, first time, jealousy! \o/, and all of these in that absolutely delicious Draycevixen' style.
Her Bodie's voice is just perfect, the mix of sarcasm and endearing sincerity will make you smile (and even laugh out loud) and feel bad for him, even when laughing, while reading this.
So, what is this story about? It's about Bodie, in love with Doyle, and feeling miserable because his feelings are not returned, but he's willing to live with that because, Doyle is straight. Except, Ray is becoming more and more distant, and then this old acquaintance of him comes around, and wow! maybe Doyle is not as straight as Bodie had thought :P

Come under this little nice cut to see what I'm talking about )

Now, go to read Down to Zero, have a good time and don't forget to let her now how great her story is :D

01:23 pm Checkmate by beadattitude (PG)
Fandom: Stargate Atlantis
Pairing: John Sheppard/Rodney McKay
Length: short
Author on LJ:[livejournal.com profile] beadattitude 
Author's Website: author's fic on LJ

Why this must be read: I can't believe that this hadn't been recced yet! Basically John gets turned into a cat. But it's so much more than that. It's John and Rodney bonding on a deeper level. It may have started out as a bit of crackfic, but it turned into an entire universe that is so much more than crack.

01:23 pm Doors by Elizabeth Lowery (PG)
Fandom STARSKY AND HUTCH
PairingStarsky/Hutch
Length 5337 words
author on LJ unknown
author's website http://daveandkensdiner.com/viewuser.php?uid=43

Why this must be read I'm not a huge fan of the horror genre, but I will read anything by my fave Elizabeth Lowery. This tale of a haunted house gripped me. I was on the edge of my chair, and uncertain how it would end right up to the last paragraphs. The old house is full of spirits, menacing to Hutch, kinder and rather erotic to Starsky. What does it all mean?

Fandom: HARRY POTTER
Pairing: Remus/Tonks
Length: ~10,000
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] jncar
Author Website: Fanfiction Master Index
Why this must be read:

Tonks is a rookie auror when she's assigned to the Sirius Black case and first meets Remus in this Goblet of Fire era story. The slow way that Remus and Tonks come together during the course of a year is very well written by the author; this piece is one of my favorites for the pairing.

02:26 pm The Watching Wall by Amerella (PG)
Fandom:  The X-Files
Pairing:  Mulder/Scully
Length: Vignette
Author on LJ: Unknown
Author Website: Unknown
Why this must be read:

Set against the backdrop of a murder case in Chicago, this is a lyrical, almost poetic story about the changes in Mulder and Scully's relationship post-Sixth Extinction: Amor Fati.  This story is one I can read again and again and be at once amazed by it's brilliance, and then saddened that it is the only XF fic the author ever wrote.  I love this passage most of all:  "He is circling in her orbit and it is all he wishes to ever feel."  I couldn't have summed up Mulder's feelings about Scully any better myself.

03:08 pm Breath by Jane St Clair (NC-17)
Fandom: STAR WARS: THE PHANTOM MENACE
Pairing: Qui-Gon Jinn/Obi-Wan Kenobi
Length: 36k
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] 3jane
Author Website: janefic
Why this must be read: You don’t just read a story by Jane St Clair, you experience it. This is an alternate ending to TPM with Jane’s lyrical, erotic style that I love.

Excerpt:
Obi-Wan's own feelings for his master had been the subject of half a hundred meditations in the last two or three years. He hadn't had any desire to re-live his first infatuation. But this was something else, less omnipresent and less shattering, but felt with all the intensity of his adult mind. And it was love, for Qui-Gon as a person rather than a symbol. As the one who rubbed Obi-Wan's back when he couldn't sleep, but also as a man he was just coming to know, whose silences absorbed him and whose pride would always keep him from taking on a desperate lover.

10:53 pm Once More, With Martians by Biichan (PG)
Fandom: DOCTOR WHO
Pairing: Donna Noble/First Doctor, Fem!Doctor
Length: 500+
Author on LJ:  [livejournal.com profile] biichan 

Why this must be read:

Back in October of 07 [livejournal.com profile] ladymako71 hosted a Donna Noble drabble-tag on her LJ.  The result was half a dozen awesome little fills. This is one of my favourite.

After the Doctor commits suicide and regenerates as a woman Donna decides to go her own way and the Doctor goes on a 40 year vacation. Only the Doctor would consider 40 years a vacation. :)

Full of Crack, Kick Ass Donna, and a perfect First Doctor this is an fantastic little drabble.

*HR stumbles to the van* I'm sorry for the lateness of my arrival. *HR fumbles with the keys* I'll be driving the van for Star Trek this month. *HR tosses the map out the window* I think we'll just drive around and see where the road takes us. *grin*

Fandom: STAR TREK - ToS
Pairing/Characters: Amanda/Sarek; Spock; Family fic
Length: 1059
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] tree_and_leaf
Author Website: Author's Journal
Why this must be read:

Quite simply, this must be read because Amanda is amazing, and Sarek is his perfect subtle self in this fic. The author tackles the prejudices the young family faces, and will continue to have to face, and shows them rising above it with wit, intelligence, and grace. This is the Amanda and Sarek that the series always hinted at, brought to life in one well-written little fic. Go. Read. Enjoy.
