Why this must be read:

Oh God HILARIOUS. An epistolary fic (well, in telegrams and letters), which indirectly conveys Jeeves' stubborn pride and Bertie's baffled sincerity over his mysterious absence in volleys of perfect prose. Bertie uses logic, Jeeves attempts to rebuff him, and several inferior stand-in valets make life hell.

Why this must be read:

Simply fabulous. From the purchase of 'a nice bright pink tie with a cheerful sort of reddish herringbone pattern'; to Bertie voluntarily attending an avant-garde concert by a composer boasting the name of Janöszhegzcy; where he meets Florence Craye, and comes within range of her almost-superhuman ability to get engaged to Bertie without being asked... Even Jeeves is practically baffled. Will Bertie HAVE to settle down into married bliss this time?

Well, I say 'the heart of the metrop,' but I probably ought to say 'just round the back of its kidneys' )

Pairing: Jeeves/Bertie Wooster
Author on LJ: no LJ (that I can trace)
Author Website: The Android's Dungeon
Why this must be read:

Bertie finds out that there's no doing without Jeeves. An admirable combination of quiet devotion, Mrs. Beeton, and 'tween-stairs escapades.

She gave me the speculative fish-eye, then realised there was no reasoning with me. )

Why this must be read:

Bertie's holiday in a 'delightful little cottage' ends up to be something quite different. Very touching fic.

Why this must be read:

In short, Jeeves takes peculiar exception to Bertie's attire. The most subtle and smutty little fic in the fandom, in my opinion. One to read and re-read, and gasp over.

Why this must be read:

A long, meaty read with a great set-up. It all starts when the insufferable Fippy dares to encroach on Bertie's territory, and makes a play for Jeeves... Featuring excerpts from a musical comedy show 'Mrs. Sir', where the subtext weighs approximately 7 tons and the hit song is 'I'd Like To Kiss You, Sir, But It's Time To Serve Tea'.

He was the sort of fellow who had trouble keeping track of which bits of his trousers he was supposed to stick his legs in )

Why this must be read:

The first in an enjoyable series. Bertie strikes an unexpected vein of feeling when he and Jeeves enjoy a convivial birthday evening involving rather too much of the Good Stuff. Delightfully plausible - and Jeeves at a loss, for once!

19th-May-2006 12:16 am Mr. Wooster and the Restorative Preparation by innocentsmith (PG)
Fandom: JEEVES & WOOSTER
Pairing: Jeeves/Bertie Wooster, allusions to Jeeves/would spoil it to say
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] innocentsmith
Author Website: check lj for updates
Why this must be read:

Simply one of the best fics in fandom for speculation on Jeeves' life before he came into Bertie's service. We get some scattered references in canon, and innocentsmith takes every one of them and weaves a delicious tale of Jeeves' wheelings and dealings, from the aristocracy to American crooks, and the sartorial checks he suffers in the process.

Via disappointed love and family visits, to that favourite first scene where Jeeves comes to Bertie's door for the first time. Was it only a happy coincidence that he 'happened' to be in need of employment at the moment when Bertie needed a valet? It's Jeeves, after all...

Contains crossover hints with other Wodehouse characters, for which the author deserves a slap-up tea with macaroons on the side.

I had not been long in Mr. Todd’s service before I began to wonder if my talents might not be better used elsewhere... )

Fandom: JEEVES & WOOSTER
Pairing: none that I may divulge...
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] yahtzee63
Author Website: Yahtzee's Fic
Why this must be read:

Disaster has struck at the Wooster domicile. News comes that both Madeline and Florence have chucked their suitors after Bertie makes them an ill-advised present of love poetry. Will he be torn to shreds between the warring two, or does Jeeves' calm demeanour herald a change for the better? An unexpected and top-hole read - even rivals 'The Mystery of the Pink Crayfish'.

Telegrams before breakfast often mean terrible things... )

15th-May-2006 11:58 pm JEEVES & WOOSTER/LORD PETER WIMSEY (SAYERS)
Title: Green Ice by Adina (PG)
Pairing: None (Bertie Wooster/Jeeves, if you're concentrating very hard)
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] adina_atl
Author Website: check lj for updates
Why this must be read:

It could be the only crossover in this fandom (please, please correct me if I'm wrong. I yearn to be wrong on this one). It could also be one of the best crossovers written. The joy of this fabulous fic is, it opens up another superb fandom (set in the same era) for those who love Wodehouse, because you'll probably enjoy Dorothy L Sayers' work too. Sayers' major character Lord Peter Wimsey leads the way to a wholly unexpected view of Bertie Wooster, and his role in World War I.

Adina writes from Bertie's point of view, changing the way we see Wimsey, and allowing a new light to be shed on the possible tragedy of Bertie's own life. An amazing mix of Wooster fun and Wimsey mystery, and the peep into Bertie's mind is incredibly touching. I defy you to come away without at least a hint of a tear in your eye.

Fandom: JEEVES & WOOSTER
Pairing: Jeeves/Bertie Wooster
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] astolat
Author Website: Intimations
Why this must be read:

Jeeves is perturbed to such an extreme that Bertie's morning libations are disturbed. A blackmailer, missing pearls and indecent proposals are the order of the day - but Bertie rises to the occasion in Sherlockian fashion. Touching and hilarious.

Ordinarily Jeeves manages to divine when I have awoken by some arcane method, likely of a kind man was Not Meant To Know. )

Pairing: Jeeves/Bertie Wooster
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] rowen_r

Why this must be read:

[livejournal.com profile] rowen_r has captured the essence of a Wodehouse farce without too much canonical detail to confuse the newbies. (I'm breaking you in gently.) Her Bertie voice is perfect, and wry humour is to be had in abundance.

Bertie meets and wins both a girl (Prudence) and a Suit (incomparable), but Jeeves is happy with neither. Then an unexpected secret meeting sends Bertie into a panic...

There was enough scepticism in his voice to serve as a dictionary definition of the word “incredulous”... )

27th-Apr-2006 09:58 pm Jeeves & Wooster: An Overview by Sine


'It is pretty generally recognised in the circles in which he moves that Bertram Wooster is not a man who lightly throws in the towel and admits defeat. Beneath the thingummies of what-d'you-call-it, his head, wind and weather permitting, is as a rule bloody but unbowed, and if the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune want to crush his proud spirit, they have to pull their socks up and make a special effort.'

*

'Yes, sir,' said Jeeves in a low, cold voice, as if he had been bitten in the leg by a personal friend.
