Brief summary: In which there is a circuitous conversation,Nick receives the absolute minimum and Grissom would rather not be grateful. Death is not always unkind and sometimes living with the consequences of our actions is the hardest thing of all.

Claim: Stargate: Atlantis - John Sheppard
Title: Opposition of the Stars
Author: [livejournal.com profile] kageygirl
Characters: John Sheppard, Rodney McKay.
Prompt: 22. UST.
Rating: PG-13.
Length: medium (2,680 words)
Brief summary: There are legitimate, institutional factors keeping McKay and Sheppard from having a relationship—an intimate relationship—not the least of which is the U.S. Military Code. It's fantastic to see the characters not only acknowledge those restrictions, but submit to them. For John to say, "this is a rule I cannot break," while we can see and hear and *feel* how much they want it, is the absolute best, most wistful UST.

The Sentinel-Jim/Blair
Title: Homeward Bound
Author:Alyjude
Characters:Jim/Blair, assorted
Prompt:03-Angst
Rating:R
Length:Long
Why this must be read Set after Four Point Shot, this puts a hugely angsty twist on the events in that episode. Blair has left town, and is forced to return to face his demons.
Featuring a lovely and plausible cross over-this is one of my favorite stories.

Prompt:022-UST
Rating:PG
Length:Short
Why this must be read I don't read much UST, but this is a nice take on the whys and wherefores Jim and Blair might not happen.

The Sentinel-Jim/Blair
Title: Light
Author:Resonant
Characters:Jim/Blair
Prompt:018-Light
Rating:R
Length:Medium
Why this must be read Taking the prompt literally, this is a lovely, almost delicate story, with a fine focus on Jim's senses, terrific imagery and a sense of the inevitable coming together of the two men.

The Sentinel-Jim/Blair
Title: To Do List
Author:Aubrey Robin
Characters:Jim,Blair
Prompt:08-Friendship
Rating:G
Length:Medium
Why this must be read I love this story. One of the few non-slash stories I've read(whether it's gen, smarm or preslash is in the eye of the beholder), and one I read over and over again, this is a wonderful gap filler for anyone who ever wanted to know exactly how Blair got offered the badge in TSbyBs. And yes there is a slash sequel.

Claim: Stargate Atlantis: Teyla
Title: Dinner at Eight
Author: Selenay ([livejournal.com profile] selenay936)
Characters: Teyla, Elizabeth
Prompt: 37 - Make-up
Rating: PG
Length: Medium
Brief summary: Elizabeth and Teyla have been enjoying dinner together on a sporadic basis, but the events of Suspicion has caused problems with their building relationship. It's a very sweet story of the two of them coming to an understanding, and I love the subtext of them agreeing that their jobs will affect their personal life.

Claim: Stargate Atlantis: Teyla
Title: Need
Author: eretria ([livejournal.com profile] eretria)
Characters: Sheppard, Teyla
Prompt:38 - Betrayal
Rating: PG-13
Length: short
Brief summary: Another follow-on to The Gift, where Teyla is driven to seek out John in the middle of the night. I really like eretria's writing, and so much of it has a darker, more realistic edge.

Claim: "Without a Trace," Jack/Samantha
Title: Thankfulness
Author: Evidence
Characters: Jack Malone, Samantha Spade, Danny Taylor, Martin Fitzgerald, Vivian Johnson. Plus, Gil Grissom, Catherine Willows, Sara Sidle, Warrick Brown and Nick Stokes from CSI.
Prompt: 15. Crack!fic.
Rating: PG.
Length: Medium.

Brief summary: The WaT cast shares Thanksgiving dinner with the CSIs at Jack's new apartment. Much hilarity ensues, including Grissom searching for (and then mourning) his pet bug, Jack and Samantha exchanging innuendo-filled comments, and Nick and Martin eating most of the Thanksgiving turkey. A light, fun fic that also highlights the differences between the shows and their casts -- and certainly appropriate, given the season.

Author: afrai, [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]
Characters: Crowley, Aziraphale
Prompt: 14. Loss.
Rating: R
Length: long
Brief summary: Aziraphale becomes a human. The inevitable happens. This fic packs a whollop and I think that's the best compliment I can give it. If a fic can make you feel like you've been punched, it's officially a good fic.

Characters: Crowley, Aziraphale
Prompt: 32. Secrets.
Rating: R
Length: long
Brief summary: This might not be the classical definition of 'secrets'. Except that Crowley certainly thinks that he's hiding something from Aziraphale. The title is a good hint as to what the secret is. I adore the ending of this fic. In fact, it's adorable all the way through. Read, enjoy!

Claim: NSYNC, Justin/JC
Title: Nobody's Fault But My Own
Author: Kel aka [livejournal.com profile] throughadoor and Lise aka [livejournal.com profile] pop_tarts
Characters: Justin, JC
Prompt: 11. Character Study
Rating: R
Length: medium
Brief summary: This is as close as a JuC story will ever come to character study I do believe. This story incorporates many quotes from Justin's interview with The Advocate where they asked him many questions about having gay fans, gay associates, rumors of him being gay...and his answers set each scene of the story. Not only do I love the interview, but I love the scope of this story. There are bits from as far back as MMC, but the story mostly deals with Justin in the near future after releasing an album that doesn't do very well. With JC's help Justin realizes that he has to be honest with himself and do what makes himself happy. This story is very Justin-centric, with only flashes of JC, but they are good flashes that establish him as Justin's strength.

Claim: NSYNC, Justin/JC
Title: ...In Bed
Author: [livejournal.com profile] marythefan
Characters: Justin, JC, Nick Carter
Prompt: 33. Crossover
Rating: R
Length: medium
Brief summary: So there is a theme to the recs in this post - both stories include fun quotes and the stories span many years. This story includes fortunes from fortune cookies...which of course get "...in bed" added to the end. This story is all about how Justin and JC keep coming back together, from MMC to NSYNC to solo projects, and it is full of wonderful moments showing how JC is always the person who knows how to get Justin through the difficult times. After years of being best friends, Justin realizes that he feels more than friendship for JC - but JC is casually seeing Nick Carter at the time. Non-AU crossovers are hard to come by in JuC stories...

Claim:*NSYNC, JC Chasez
Title: nobody's birthday

Author: Merry ([livejournal.com profile] merryish and her popslash at anyroad.org)
Characters: JC Chasez, Joey Fatone, other members of *NSYNC, etc.
Prompt: 42. Holiday
Rating: R
Length: medium (5095 words)
Summary: Oh, oh. Merry writes such a wonderful JC, not too complex and not too simple, but sensual and always pleasuring in the pleasure of others. This story is about JC and how he loves Joey. The holiday parts are in the beginning, and it's just so happy and warm and perfect all the way through. The content that JC feels in this story, the appreciation and the friendship, it all feels very real, insofar as JC may not actually be gay with Joey. If JC was gay with Joey, this is how he would be gay with him. And that is so how they would spend Christmas.

Author: Beth ([livejournal.com profile] beth666ann and her popslash at unaware)
Characters: JC Chasez, Bobbie Thomas, etc.
Prompt: 5. Sex
Rating: NC-17
Length: short (1043 words)
Summary: The best summary of this story is on the page itself. This is a finely crafted JC and Bobbie, gorgeously oblivious to everyone's reactions to their style: looking like trash and fucking like treasure. To quote: Wonderful, horrible devastation; fabulous, fabulous clothes. If JC's not a little like this on the inside, I would be very surprised.

Claim: Harry Potter, Harry/Ginny
Prompt: UST
Title: Sweet and Half-Forgotten
Author: She's A Star
Characters: Harry, Ginny
Rating: K+ (PG)
Length: short
Brief summary: This is a sweet, short fic in which Harry and Ginny encounter each other at Bill's wedding. It's sexually charged in a perfect teenage way.


Claim: Harry Potter, Harry/Ginny
Prompt: Time
Title: 9.8 m/s2
Author: [livejournal.com profile] delicfcd
Characters: Harry, Ginny
Rating: G
Length: short
Brief summary: This is a great fic, one of the ones that's super-short (less than 900 words) but fits everything necessary in somehow anyway. It's all about gravity, and falling and flying, and it's perfect for Harry and Ginny.

Title: After the End
Author: Arabella and Zsenya

Rating: PG
Length: epic
Brief summary: This is a classic fic, and I believe it's a classic for a reason. It's absurdly long, and it was written pre-OotP, but it's definitely something that all H/G fans should read.

Claim:  Nsync, JC/Lance
Title:  Never Say Goodbye
Author:  Sandy
Characters: JC, Lance
Prompt:  13.  Established Relationship
Rating:  PG
Length: short
Brief summary: JC and Lance have been together for a while, and Lance is beginning to feel unsettled, insecure.  Their relationship is described beautifully with a strict Lance POV that makes his doubts my doubts.  Sandy is completely in Lance's head for this one, and it's great.

Claim: Nsync, JC/Lance
Title:  Understand
Author:  Emmy
Characters:  JC/ Lance
Prompt:  25.  Kink
Rating:  R
Length: short
Brief summary: This is a slightly different take on power in bed.  JC likes to be held down, likes to be submissive, and it kind of freaks Lance out - because he finds that he enjoys it as well.  But I think Lance has it wrong.  I think JC has all the power here, and is in complete control of himself and Lance, and trains Lance beautifully.

My Table of Harry/Ginny Prompts

Claim: Harry Potter, Harry/Ginny
Prompt: Death
Title: The Wine with Stars in It
Author: [livejournal.com profile] thistlerose
Characters: Harry, Ginny
Rating: PG
Length: short
Brief summary: Harry can only say what he has to say at the right time, and in the right place. A short and dreamy fic, wherein Ginny helps Harry say goodbye to his godfather. A very nice, sweet fic.
Reccer's Note: This fic fits the prompt, in that it is about dealing with death. However, if you're looking for fic involving actual character death, check out the excellent zombie-fighting-fic Wake the Dead, by [livejournal.com profile] cicatrixstories, which I recced in the AU category.


Claim: Harry Potter, Harry/Ginny
Prompt: Original Character
Title: Morrigna Trilogy, aka Pendragon series
Author: [livejournal.com profile] irinaauthor
Characters: Harry, Ginny, Draco, others
Rating: PG-13
Length: epic
Brief summary: An ancient power has reawakened and the answers to all the mysteries lie with Ginny Weasley.
Warning: this series is unfinished and probably will remain so. The first 2 fics are finished, though, and in my opinion, eminently readable. It's epic adventure and romance, with mythic and historical elements. A definite fandom classic.
