In Which Martin Knows All

Claim: "Without a Trace," Jack/Samantha
Title: In Which Martin Knows All
Author: Kate Anderson
Characters: Samantha Spade, Martin Fitzgerald. Allusions to Jack Malone.
Prompt: 12. Humor.
Rating: PG.
Length: Short.

Brief summary: Martin takes Samantha out for a drink after the S2 episode, "The Bus," where she proceeds to cry, whine and complain about Jack not being there. She also shares a little too much in the cabride home. Martin's horrified reactions and Samantha's blissfully ignorant oversharing are worth the price of admission.

"A Small Step" and "Reverie"

My master table:

Claim: Harry Potter - Hermione Granger
Title: A Small Step
Author: inell
Characters: Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, Harry Potter
Prompt: 08. Friendship
Rating: PG-13
Length: Medium
Summary: Hermione is going through one of the hardest times of her life, and Harry and Ron struggle when they realize that magic can't fix it, and begin to doubt if even their 22-year friendship can make a difference. An incredibly powerful fic. I bawled my eyes out.

A Small Step

Claim: Harry Potter - Hermione Granger
Title: Reverie
Author: kethlenda
Characters: Hermione Granger, Fred Weasley, George Weasley
Prompt: 28. Dream
Rating: R
Length: Medium
Summary: During a restless night, Hermione tries out Fred & George's Daydream Potion with surprising results. Hilarious, sexy, & very well-written.

Reverie

"Before the Dawn Heals Us" and "An Argument Against Asking Nice"

the Mini-ToD

Claim: Lost, Jack/Sawyer
Title: Before the Dawn Heals Us
Author: [livejournal.com profile] thelovehater
Characters: Jack, Sawyer
Prompt: First Time
Rating: R
Length: long
Brief summary: This is the writer's 1st Jack/Sawyer fic and it's an impressive way to start! The story has nice pacing and the way in which she describes things, from the point of view of both Jack and Sawyer is lovely. It doesn't read like your usual Jack/Sawyer fic either, which is nice,so go read it! It's well worth it!

Claim: Lost, Jack/Sawyer
Title: An Argument Against Asking Nice
Author: [livejournal.com profile] hkath
Characters: Jack, Sawyer (Kate, Sun and Hurley make cameos)
Prompt: fandom cliche
Rating: R
Length: long
Brief summary: It's Sawyer wounded and Jack playing Doctor! There have been a spate of these fics in the past few weeks (and please keep them coming, people!), and it's become a bit of a cliche for Jack to nurse Sawyer back to health. What I like about this story is the dialogue and the characterisation which are both very well done. Also the Sun cameo makes me happy, as I have much love for supportive! Sun.

"Passion Play" & "Eurydice Ascending"

Hi Ho, your friendly neighborhood Daniel reccer here, with a double posting day of recs for the Daniel lover in all of us!

The Big Ol' Table

Claim: Stargate SG-1: Daniel Jackson
Title:Passion Play
Author:Biblio
Characters: Daniel Jackson, Jack O'Neill, OCs
Prompt:01. First Time
Rating:NC-17
Length:Long, 237KB
Brief Summary:Jack & Daniel let go of the difficulties of the past and choose to move on with thier deepening relationship together.
Why You Should Read It:Ok, this is the second in a wonderful series and the first SG-1 slash fic I ever read. Love it. It's filled with humor, comfort, a bit of angst (but not too much), and some vague but no less stimulating sex scenes.
Link: Passion Play

Claim: Stargate SG-1: Daniel Jackson
Title:Eurydice Ascending
Author:Kiki
Characters: Daniel Jackson, Sha'uri, SG-1
Prompt:02. AU
Rating:PG-13/R
Length:medium, 60 pages in Word
Brief Summary:An alternate universe ending to Season 3's "Forever in a Day". Sha'uri's alive, but she and Daniel's problems aren't over yet. It'll take Sam, Daniel, and maybe the entire SGC to make sure Sha'uri gets the chance to save herself.
Why You Should Read It:I'm an unrepentant Daniel shipper. I ship him with almost anyone, but the best and truest pairing is Daniel/Sha'uri (or Sha're depending upon which spelling you prefer). Kiki gives us a completely plausible way for Sha'uri to survive Forever in a Day and gives us a glimpse into what could be a happy ending for this lovely couple. The way the SGC bands together for one of thier own is just perfect, shows a true sense of unity among the command.

"Performers" and "3 Tales"

The mini ToD

Claim: Lost, Jack/Sawyer
Title: "Performers"
Author: [livejournal.com profile] ficangel
Characters: Jack, Sawyer
Prompt: Sex
Rating: NC-17
Length: medium
Brief summary: The Sawyer POV is dead on. You can hear Sawyer speaking that dialogue and the narration is vintage Sawyer. Also there is sex in the jungle. Hot sex. This is a very, very good thing.
Link to the story: Performers

Claim: Lost, Jack/Sawyer
Title: 3 Tales
Author: [livejournal.com profile] strutterms
Characters: Jack, James (trust me here)
Prompt: AU
Rating: NC-17
Length: long
Brief summary: One of the coolest aspects of Jack/Sawyer is the Jack/James verse that [livejournal.com profile] foxxcub rather ingeniously came up with. It's Jack and Sawyer as teenagers, and it's an amazing AU that has attracted a lot of the best Lost writers. This story is great. James is rough around the edges, already carrying a lot of the baggage that Sawyer does and Jack is...Jack. Read it, love it, then go read all the other Jack/James verse stories.

"Duality" & "Forever & Counting"

The Big Ol' Table

Claim: Stargate SG-1: Daniel Jackson
Title:Duality
Author: [livejournal.com profile] moonshayde
Characters: Daniel Jackson, SG-1
Prompt: 03. Angst
Rating:PG-13
Length:Long, 18 chapters (including epilogue)
Brief Summary:On P9R-139, SG-11 and SG-17 make startling discoveries into the mysteries of the cult of Thoth only to have it cut short by a surprise invasion by Anubis. When SG-1, SG-19, and SG-13 come in to help with the evacuation, and lead the scientists back through the Gate, they quickly learn they might have brought back more than just knowledge concerning Thoth and may be unable to undo the transformation that has already begun.
Why You Should Read It: OK, I love the premise of this fic. It is so subtly manipulative, you quite simply can't tear your eyes away from this one. Moonshayde is an excellent writer and this one is one of her best.
Link: Duality

Title: Forever & Counting
Author: Tivester
Characters: Daniel Jackson
Prompt: 14. Loss
Rating: PG
Length: Short (24KB)

10. Fandom Cliche: 'Ich war jung...' von Shiun

Hi,

third rec for today.

Have fun.

Claim: Fanfiction in German
Title/Titel: Ich war jung...
Author/Autor: [livejournal.com profile] shiun
Fandom: BtVS
Characters: Giles/Spike
Prompt: 10. Fandom Cliche
Rating: PG
Length/Länge: short

Brief Summary:
Giles finds out something about Spike.

Kurze Zusammenfassung:
Giles findet etwas über Spike heraus.

Why this story must be read:
Well first I should state why I rec this story for this prompt. We say 'er/sie war jung, er/sie brauchte das Geld' (he/she was young and needed the money) when we watch actors in roles of which we think well they may be a little embarrassed when fans find this out. So this cliche is not really fandom specific but we use it in fandom a lot.
So if you want to know what Spike did, when he was young(er) and needed the money, go read the story. It's really funny.

Warum man diese Story unbedingt lesen sollte:
Ok, das Thema heißt Fandom Cliché. Ein wirkliches Klischee eines speziellen Fandoms decke ich mit dieser Story nicht ab. Dafür aber unseren in Fankreisen stehenden Satz 'Er war jung, er brauchte das Geld', was uns einfällt, wenn wir Schauspieler in Rollen sehen, die ihnen heute vielleicht peinlich sind.
Wenn Ihr also wissen wollt, welchen dunklen Punkt Spike in seiner Vergangenheit hat, dann lest diese Story. Sie ist echt witzig.

"Look" by Tigs, "Itch" by Lyndac

Big Damn Table.

Claim: Stargate Atlantis: Teyla
Title: Look
Author: tigs ([livejournal.com profile] tigs)
Characters: McKay, Teyla
Prompt: 42 - Holiday
Rating: PG-13
Length: Medium
Brief summary: I guess that technically, an anniversary isn't a holiday, but then again, it's not really Teyla and Rodney's anniversary, either. I like how both Rodney and Teyla are portrayed in this, and how the fact that they are together surprises them both. They aren't overly demonstrative, and the outward face of their relationship is restrained, and I really liked that containment. Because of it, their friendship is front and center to me, and if there happens to be more, it's a bonus, warm and sweet.

Claim: Stargate Atlantis: Teyla
Title: Itch
Author: Lyndac([livejournal.com profile] lyndac)
Characters: Teyla, Ronon
Prompt: 43 - Denial
Rating: Mature
Length: Medium
Brief summary: The enzyme makes Teyla nervous and unsettled, and Ronon thinks he is handling it better than she is. Only Ronon turns out to be wrong. This is one of the enzyme stories that I was looking for -- sensual, hot, and powerful --dealing with fallout between the two of them, with both of they aggressive and hyped up from the drug.

PSA: No matter how old a story is, most authors like to hear that people are reading their work, so please think about leaving feedback when you're done. Thanks!

Recall + Ties That Bind

My Table.

Claim: The OC, Seth/Ryan
Title: Recall
Author: [livejournal.com profile] slodwick
Characters: Seth/Ryan
Prompt: Love
Rating: G
Length: Short
Brief summary: This is such a beautiful fic in so few words!! It's Ryan's POV, looking at life before compared to life after moving in with the Cohens. I've always thought it would be interesting to get inside Ryan's head and just listen, and [livejournal.com profile] slodwick does exactly that. This sounds exactly like I would think Ryan's inner monologue would sound - it's very carefully worded and deliberate, and the setting is so simple and peaceful and perfect. Excerpts. )
Link to the story: Recall


Claim: The OC, Seth/Ryan
Title: Ties That Bind
Author: [livejournal.com profile] pinn2480
Characters: Seth/Ryan
Prompt: Friendship
Rating: G
Length: Medium
Brief summary: This is post-s2 finale, and it's Ryan and Seth, talking by the pool. This fic assumes that Trey actually died during hiatus, so it has a sort of darker undertone laced with uncertainty and, ultimately, relief. It's as if, in this fic, Ryan is finally able to accept the Cohens as his family, instead of keeping himself distanced just enough by his "real" family. He's very mellow and thoughtful, in a sort of in-shock kind of way, if that makes any sense. Also, [livejournal.com profile] pinn2480's Seth is very supportive and friendly, like the Seth everyone loves but Josh and Co. sometimes forget ever existed.

"Without Him" & "Getting the Point"

Claim: Harry Potter - Hermione Granger
Title: Without Him
Author: pili204
Characters: Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, Harry Potter, Ginny Weasley
Prompt: 37. Make-Up
Rating: PG
Length: Long(ish)
Summary: One of those "missing moments" from HBP. Beautifully written: the writer really captured each character at this exact moment. Plus, the exploration of the bond between Ron & Hermione is done in a simplistic, but really refreshing way.

Without Him

Claim: Harry Potter - Hermione Granger
Title: Getting the Point
Author: Arabella
Characters: Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, Harry Potter
Prompt: 04. Fluff
Rating: PG
Length: Epic
Summary: The sequel to "Not a Last Resort" that I posted for the First Time prompt (see the master table if you're interested). Written pre-OOTP, it takes place during the night of the Yule Ball of their 5th year. Adorably sweet: Hermione & Ron are awkward & crazy in love. I love this author so much & this is one of her best.
