Why this must be read:

This is a gorgeous, angsty fix-it based on the end of Doctor Who's Season 5.

Ianto comes back to life, but doesn't get his life back. He makes a new start with Steven, who's in the same situation, and things seem to be going well enough, until suspicions from two different directions start to threaten the life they've built.

Excerpt: Ianto is happily, soundly asleep when he wakes to Richard flinging open the bedroom door, a dressing gown hastily thrown on. Before Ianto can process what's happening, he is already stumbling into his clothes and looking for his gun. He doesn't have a gun. This is a different life.

Steven is somewhere in the house, screaming.

Richard is already in the room with him, lights on, holding his shoulders. "It's all right," he says gently. "It's all right, your dad's here now."

Steven is also not awake yet, and he's looking around wildly for his dad, and Ianto's heart dims when his eyes pass over Ianto and keep looking.

08:35 pm Don't Know Where We Belong by escherzo (NC-17)
Fandom: BANDOM
Pairing: Mikey/Gerard
Length: 9,140 words
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] escherzo
Author Website: Fiction Masterlist
Why this must be read: Mikey and Gerard one hot summer.

This is a gorgeous story, quiet and lovely and very hot. I love the lazy summer atmosphere of it and the slow way their relationship is changing. The worry and love and tenderness between them feels so very right.

09:32 pm Adventure by 2corbies (rated Adult)
Fandom: dUE SOUTH

Pairing: Benton Fraser/Ray Kowalski

Length: 7,209 words

Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] 2corbies

Author Website: Her AO3 page

Why this must be read:

The modest summary for this amazing fic reads: an invitation to a wedding. However, that is just a little part for one of the best F/K post-CotW fics I've read.

Set approximately 30 years in the future, this story is about what happened after Fraser and RayK came back from their quest for Franklin's hand; about how much their lives changed; about how they went from partners to husbands to parents.

One of the things that propels this story into the must-read category is how [livejournal.com profile] 2corbies doesn't handwave the realities both characters had to face if they wanted to build a life together.

As for the wedding alluded to in the summary, well, let's just say that it fits oh-so-perfectly with the greater narrative as the past and the present-future meet with surprising results.

This is an honest, loving and (for those who want to know what kind of naked!time shenanigans older!Fraser and RayK might get into) sensual story.

09:41 pm The Crying Game by Alyjude (PG-13)
Fandom: THE SENTINEL
Pairing: Jim/Blair
Length: ~7.600
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] alysbasement
Author Website: Stories by Alyjude
Why this must be read:

This story is kind of sad. Not that you'll expected any different with this tittle, of course. It's told, mostly, from Blair's POV (even as it changes later to Jim's) and we get to see Jim through Blair's eyes. And let me tell you this: it's a beautiful sight. Blair is hopeless in love, Jim, is, no surprise here either, clueless.
But time is running out, and maybe there isn't as many time as they could have thought. They still have a chance to avoid disaster. One last chance. What are they gonna do with it?

Have a little appetizer: )

So... what do you think? Go, read The Crying Game, and then, feed the author :D
