01:57 pm Search and Rescue by _seven_crows (PG)
Fandom: STAR TREK: REBOOT
Pairing: None
Length: 4,000
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] _seven_crows
Author Website: _seven_crows’ ST fic index
Why this must be read:

Author’s summary: "You think they've been keeping Jim for twelve hours by asking politely?"

Come for the premise, stay for the execution: Spock and McCoy go on a mission to rescue Jim from capture on an alien planet, and [livejournal.com profile] _seven_crows takes a well-used plot and makes it her own. The spot-on Spock/McCoy banter is a treat, as are the action scenes, which hold my attention like not many action scenes do. I particularly like how [livejournal.com profile] _seven_crows writes Spock, who gets to show off both his command and fighting skills here. This is one of those fics that I can read over and over again without ever getting bored.

06:17 pm Resistance and Futility: A Study (Or: Seven Times Peter Burke Caught Neal Caffrey) by gyzym (R)
Fandom: WHITE COLLAR
Pairing: Peter/Neal
Length: ~6,200
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] gyzym
Author Website: The Fanfiction Masterlist
Why this must be read:

This story has been jossed by canon since it was posted, but it remains one of my favorite takes of Peter and Neal's pre-series relationship and how exactly the FBI agent (eventually) caught the conman.

08:33 pm Might I Have a Bit of Earth & Apastron by theopteryx (NC-17)
Fandom: BANDOM
Pairing: Frank/Gerard, Mikey/Alicia
Length: 14,470 & 26,680 words

Why this must be read: This is the space AU of my heart! I always like stories set in space but the worldbuilding of this makes it stand in a class of its own. It's a gritty, dirty, incredibly vivid and tangible universe and the characterisations of Gerard the space pirate, his brother Mikey, and Frank the bounty hunter/stowaway are both wonderful and heartbreaking. They're all exactly how I can imagine them being if they'd grown up in this universe. Frank and Gerard's relationship is so fucked up and so right and I love everything about it, from the their mutual trust issues to the banter and the deep love.
