SMALLVILLE

Fic: Cookie Dough and Candy Hearts (http://www.lexslash.com/archive/archive/1/cookiedough.html)
Author: Dayspring
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: Clark/Lex (though this is really a Lex/future-mother-in-law romp)
Category: Romance! Light schmoop and first kiss!

Lex and Martha get silly in the kitchen.

X-men: Movieverse

Fic: The Depth and the Breadth and the Height (http://www.fanfiction.net/read.php?storyid=1603401)
Author: Katt
Rating: R
Category: Romance/Drama

This is an AU. The basic premise is that after Rogue absorbs Carol Danvers, she and Remy leave the X-men for a while to explore each other and Europe. This is just a scene between them in (I think) the French Alps, and oh what a scene it is! There's schmoopy flirting, there's mischeif, there's some angst and there's a bloody fight that almost results in sex. It's one of my favorite Rogue/Remy stories--hell, one of my favorite stories period.

(Also, I just have to pimp the rest of Katt's Prodigals fics, as they're all wonderful. Go! Read them!)

I'm asking ... Jeremiah?

I've finally started seeing Jeremiah and the slash potential is serious. Who's writing? What's good?

Romeo & Juliet

Fic: Servants with Torches (http://www.ravenswing.com/~mirrorgirl/servants.html)
Author: Jane St Clair
Rating: NC-17, I guess, though it isn't very explicit
Pairing: Romeo/Mercutio
Category: Very romantic, angsty slash

What better fandom for Valentine's? But R & J is surprisingly slashable and I've always thought this pairing has more potential in it than the canon one. Very atmospheric and brooding.

Deep Space Nine

Fic: Nom de Plume (http://home.fastnet.co.uk/arcady/NDP.html) & Roman a Clef (http://home.fastnet.co.uk/arcady/roman.html)
Author: Arcady
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: Garak/Bashir
Category: Romantic comedy

An inventive premise, clever characterisation & a broad streak of humour. Happy Valentine's Day, folks!

Fic: Seven Things That Didn't Happen On Valentine's Day At Hogwarts, Or Maybe They Did (http://ling.anifics.com/pru/seventhings.htm)
Author: rageprufrock

Pairing: Remus/Sirius (James/Lily)
Category: Describes each Valentine's Day at Hogwarts during the MWPP era with humour, love, affection, bitterness, forgiveness and the usual Marauder-inspired insanity.
