Das Schicksal eines ungeborenen Lebens.

Why this story must be read:
A child destined to be the light of the world - sounds like Christmas, but is in fact a Harry Potter Story. I love the idea of the story. Smilla again managed to write a great story which left me really touched.

Warum man diese Story unbedingt lesen sollte:

Claim: "Without a Trace," Jack/Samantha
Title: Rush
Author: Midnight Caller
Characters: Jack Malone, Samantha Spade.
Prompt: 07. Love.
Rating: Strong R.
Length: Medium.

Brief summary: Samantha saves Jack's life, and they go back to her apartment to essentially celebrate being alive. While this fic could fall into the "porn without plot" category, the story is so gorgeously told -- the author's descriptions capturing not only the physical, but the emotional state of the characters, that PWP doesn't do it justice. It is a love story, told through actions rather than words. Eloquent, vivid and angstily beautiful.

Characters: Methos/Duncan
Prompt: 30. Seduction
Rating: NC-17
Length/Länge: short-middle

Brief Summary:
Methos is training, a shower room and the morning after. This was a challenge answer.

Kurze Zusammenfassung:
Methos trainiert, ein Duschraum und der Morgen danach, Antwort auf den Listentreffenchallenge 2001

Why this story must be read:
Challenges which originate in our list gatherings are definitely always a real challenge, because of the strange combination of words to use. But that's not the reason for this rec. Real reason ist: Methos is not training for some sports competition but for a performance in a strip club and Duncan as usual is a bit too curious. This strip just is pure seduction.

Warum man diese Story unbedingt lesen sollte:
Listentreffenchallenges gehören definitiv zu den echten Herausforderungen, weil die Begriffe doch sehr wirr zusammengestellt sind. Das ist aber nicht der Grund für diese Rec. Der Grund ist: Methos trainiert hier nicht für irgendwas sondern für einen Auftritt im Strip-Club und Duncan war ein wenig zu neugierig. Dieser Strip ist definitiv Verführung pur.

Lance tries to get him to break out of his depression, but has no luck. Just as JC is taking the first steps to let go, Justin shows up. Only this Justin can't leave the house and no one but JC can see him. But he can't stay forever. This might be the only fic that has ever made me cry. JC's pain is so real, as is Lance's.

Prompt: 42. Holiday
Rating: R
Length/Länge: middle-long

Brief Summary:
We all know the story of Charles Dickens and Ebenezer Scrooge. But what would happen if the three Christmas Ghosts visit our boys on Enterprise?

Kurze Zusammenfassung:
Wir alle kennen die berühmte Weihnachtsgeschichte von Charles Dickens und Ebenezer Scrooge. Aber was würde passieren, wenn diese Geister unsere Männer auf der Enterprise besuchen?

Why this story must be read:
A Christmas Carol is *the* Christmas classic and this adaption is well written. What I like so specially about this story is the insight in Malcolms past, present and maybe future life. So great reading to get into the Christmas mood.

Warum man diese Story unbedingt lesen sollte:
Die Weihnachtsgeschichte von Dickens ist der Weihnachtsklassiker schlechthin und diese Adaption ist gut geschrieben. Was ich so daran liebe sind die Einblicke, die wir in Malcolms Leben (Vergangenheit, Gegenwart und mögliche Zukunft( bekommen.

Prompt: 31. Discovery
Rating: PG
Length/Länge: long

Brief Summary:
This is how Stargate Atlantis could have been. *g*

Kurze Zusammenfassung:
So hätte Stargate Atlantis werden können. *g*

Why this story must be read:
Attention: this story is not about Dr. Weir and her team. It's older than the tv show Stargate Atlantis and is a Crossover between Stargate SG-1 and Zak MacKraken. The story's about the discovery of Atlantis as this prompt suggests. What's so great about this story are the strange heroes and Christian's very special sort of humor. Definitely worth reading not only for Atlantis fans.

Warum man diese Story unbedingt lesen sollte:
Eines vorweg: mit der Serie rund um Dr. Weir hat diese Fanfiction nichts zu tun. Sie ist älter und ein SG-1 Crossover mit ZakMc Kraken. Es geht um die Entdeckung von Atlantis, wie bei diesem Prompt nicht anders zu erwarten. Was diese Story so klasse macht, sind die sehr ungewöhnlichen Helden und Christians ganz spezieller Humor. Prädikat: echt lesenswert nicht nur für Atlantis Fans.

Characters: Chris/Eddie, Amanda, Methos, OMC
Prompt: 29. Weapons
Rating: R
Length/Länge: long-epic

Brief Summary:
Chris learns more about immortality than he ever wanted to know.

Kurze Zusammenfassung:
Chris lernt mehr über Unsterblichkeit, als er je wissen wollte.

Why this story must be read:
Where shall I start? The story is gripping. Aisling's Chris is so very in character. The training scene with Chris and Methos is 'nice'. *eg*
There is a whole fanfiction universe evolving about 'Echte Kerle' a German film - you could produce at least three other films. This story would be one of them. By the way who would have thought that Higlander and Echte Kerle are such a perfect match. The right story for long dark winter evenings.

Warum man diese Story unbedingt lesen sollte:
Tja, wo soll ich anfangen? Die Story ist spannend. Aislings Chris ist soooooo Chris. Die Chris/Methos-Trainings-Szene ist 'nett'. *eg*
Inzwischen gibt es ein ganzes Universum rund um 'Echte Kerle' - davon könnte man noch mindestens 3 Filme drehen. Diese Geschichte wäre einer davon. Und wer hätte gedacht, daß sich das Highlander Universum so prima in Echte Kerle integrieren ließe. Genau das richtige für lange dunkle Winterabende.

Kurze Zusammenfassung:
Methos' Vergangenheit holt ihn ein. Diesmal befinden er und sein Geliebter Duncan sich in den Fängen des Goa'uld Sokar, der Verkörperung des Satans.

Why this story must be read:
This story is extremely thrilling but also quite violent. I should mention that the chapters portray either Duncan' or Methos's POV. Birgitt has written additional chapter poems which add something special to each chapter.

Warum man diese Story unbedingt lesen sollte:
Eine Geschichte, die unter die Haut geht, aber auch nichts für schwache Nerven. Erwähnenswert ist vielleicht noch, daß die Geschichte immer abwechselnd aus Duncans und Methos' POV geschrieben hat und Birgitts Gedichte an jedem Kapitelanfang der Story noch zusätzlichen Flair verleihen.

Prompt: 33. Crossover
Rating: NC-17
Length: Epic
Brief summary: Leave it to Sue to do this wonderful crossover with QAFUK and Velvet Goldmine. What I enjoyed so much is that it was Vince that Curt went after here. I also love a jealous and worried Stuart, and we get that in full force. I think she also wrote Curt wonderfully in character, and gave us a scorcher of a sex scene between Stuart and Vince. For those interested, there is also a sequel called Nor All Those Who Wander. Both of these are highly recommended -- for people who enjoy both fandoms!

Length: Medium
Brief summary: What I love about these two conversations is the wonderful juxtaposition of ideas Shella uses. Vince waiting for his father to show up and spend time with him versus Stuart and Vince being involved in Alfie's life. In these two short drabbles, She shows how their lives have been shaped by their own experiences. A really lovely read, and I am a sucker for stories where they are helping raise Alfie as well. I also love how she shows their understanding of the other, using pauses and short answers to convey so much. The dialogue is realised nicely. Highly recommended!

Brief summary: This is the only story in my list of recs in which Tim is not part of the main pairing. He's a supporting character in this one, but he's still absolutely integral. His friendship with Kon, in the spirit of the Teen Titans comic, really shines through. They really *know* each other, and care about each other, so of course Tim's the one Kon goes to when Bart's being more baffling than usual.

Why You Should Read It: A new fic about the original team, and how they all work together to make sure one of thier own makes it home. This one was in one of AshtonPress's fanzines, and Ashton is meticulous when it comes to editing, so you know this story is top-notch. I've never been disappointed by a story out of the Redemption series of fanzines so I wasn't surprised when I found the writing to be excellent. The author captures SG-1's individual voices and team spirit perfectly.
