Claim: Nsync: Lance Bass
Title: Rumour
Author: Calico, at Calico's Lair and ukcalico
Characters: Lance, Chris, the rest of Nsync
Prompt: 48 Reccer's Choice
Rating: sex
Length: long
Brief summary: This is one of the first stories I ever read in popslash and quite probably the cause of my strong love of the Chris/Lance pairing. In this story it is Chris who is the schemer, getting Lance to go along with his plans, and putting strange new ideas in his head. It's at once serious and funny, with great dialogue and atmosphere.

Characters: Hastur, Ligur
Prompt: 41. Redemption.
Rating: PG-13
Length: medium
Brief summary: Ligur and Hastur fic is hard to find. And yet it's so delicious. Let's say about this fic that Hastur has to redeem himself in Ligur's eyes. These characters are completely hysterical and the fic does them justice.

Prompt: 27. Original Character.
Rating: PG
Length: medium
Brief summary: I'm not sure this counts as an original character fic but I don't remember Pestilence being mentioned in the novel. So we'll go with my memory on this one because I love the fic. It's dark, it's creepy - the way a fic about Famine should be. Wonderful stuff.

Characters: Crowley, Lucifer, Aziraphale
Prompt: 37. Make-up.
Rating: PG
Length: medium
Brief summary: Lucifer is a strict boss and Crowley has to make-up for his mistakes. And apparently Hell is a very forgiving place, as long as one makes an effort. This fic amuses me to no end.

Wicked

[eolivet.livejournal.com]

Claim: "Without a Trace," Jack/Samantha
Title: Wicked
Author: Obsidian
Characters: Samantha Spade and her mom. Jack Malone.
Prompt: 36. Family.
Rating: PG.
Length: Short.

Brief summary: This story is billed as a WIP, but works just as well as a one-off. The author details Samantha's mischevious exploits from her childhood through her teenage years that might have helped shape her personality. Her mother's growing exasperation seems very true-to-character, especially given the show's notion that the two no longer speak. A wonderful piece that says a lot about the character in very few words.

Prompt: 49 Reccer's Choice
Rating: NC-17
Length: short
Brief summary: This is the epitome of a PWP. Sarcastic, snarky, and very hot, without any unnecessary verbiage or rose-coloured emotions. It deals with "dirty parking lot sex", as the summary puts it, and it does it exceptionally well.

Characters: Lance, Justin, the rest of Nsync, Britney Spears
Prompt: 50 Reccer's Choice
Rating: -
Length: long
Brief summary: This wonderfully well-written story is hilariously funny! It's also sweet and witty and has some great intra-band dynamics. The adventures of the Evil Overlord, General Crumpet, and his vain and treacherous trophy-mistress Sweetpea the Terrible have had an enormous impact on popslash, and if there exists one "must read" story in this fandom, this is it.

"Anti-Christ!JC" and "Ready to Wear"

[babygotbass.livejournal.com]

My Big Damn Table

Claim: NSYNC, Justin/JC
Title: AC!JC!
Author: forceofisis
Characters: Justin and JC, with some Evi, Bai and Britney
Prompt: 20. Non-con
Rating: NC-17
Length: long series
Brief summary: This series starts out with a couple of drabbles then moves into longer pieces. It takes place after JC and Justin's first solo albums, and JC has morphed into a androgynous, dark rock star who wears eyeliner and pleather. Mostly written from Justin's POV, and Justin is just as enamored as the rest of his fans. Lots of sex, but the emotions are also well written. The ladies show up for some nights of pleasure that seem to be as dark as JC's new persona.

Claim: NSYNC, Justin/JC
Title: Ready to Wear
Author: beth666ann
Characters: Justin and JC
Prompt: 46. Reccer's Choice
Rating: NC -17
Length: medium
Brief summary: If cold was a prompt, I would have used this story. It is just a happy little piece that I love. Justin has been alone for a while now, and he is always cold. When he meets up with JC, he is the only thing that warms him up. I also love this story because Justin is worried about JC being able to handle all the solo artist stuff on his own - which is a side of Justin we rarely see in fic. Justin finally asks JC on a real date, and their relationship is slow after that, but they finally just admit how they feel.
