11:51 am "One Foot Wrong" by allfireburns (G)
Fandom: Firefly
Pairing: Simon/Kaylee
Length: Five things, ~600 words
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] find_rightbrain
Author Website: (or a link to where more of their fic is archived) Author at AO3

Why this must be read: Kaylee has her flaws, too, you know.  Simon adjusts, and moves forward. It's nice to see a fic--especially one so succinct--that realizes that it's not just his lacking social grace that keeps them apart.

Five things about Kaylee that drive Simon crazy. )

Why this must be read: This story was posted today, and I was so blown away by the amazing characterization, by the way this particular slice of life was written, that I decided to do a switcheroo and rec this story right away. You have to read it to understand just how brilliant this fic is.

08:59 pm Tradition by Jesse (PG-13)
Fandom: THE MAN FROM UNCLE
Pairing: Napoleon/Illya
Length: about 750 words
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] jessebee
Author Website: a lot of her stories are archived at The Chrome and Gunmetal Madhouse
Why this must be read: This is a gentle vignette featuring a moment between two lovers in bed. Two intensely private men who have lived, fought and bled alongside one another and are now discovering small, intimate details from their past. It's a sweet story, but not saccarine. It's a story with tendrils into the show's canon (Napoleon and water) that weave themselves into this story that in the show were humorous but Jesse deftly turns them into heartache and resolve. All in less than a thousand words.

09:27 pm In the Interest of Bodie and Doyle by Maddalia (teen/mature)
Fandom: THE PROFESSIONALS
Pairing: Bodie/Doyle
Length: ~2600 words
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] maddalia
Author’s Stories: Maddalia
Why this must be read: a lovely first time story by a new Pro’s writer

There are many talented "long-time" writers in the Pro’s fandom. I thought this time I’d spotlight a talented new writer. Maddalia has written a warm, humorous and entertaining version of how the lads might have worked up to their “first time”. The actions and voices she gives the lads are well drawn. We get a teasing Ray and a hesitant Bodie and an ending that both the lads and readers want!

excerpt )

Go ahead and give Maddalia a try. You won’t be disappointed!
