Claim: Firefly: Inara Serra
Title: Been Too Long
Author: hossgal
Characters: Inara, OFC
Prompt: 27. Original Character
Rating: R
Length: Long
Brief summary: When a character has a profession like Inara's, it's easy to think of ways to introduce original characters. This is one of the best that I've read, as far as character development of the new character goes!

Claim: Firefly: Inara Serra
Title: Midnight
Author: dallyra
Characters: Inara/Mal
Prompt: 39. Break-Up
Rating: PG-13
Length: Short
Brief summary: Perhaps more "goodbye" than "break-up", but with the relationship Inara and Mal have, a goodbye is practically a breakup. I just adore this fic (and its' author!) and just *had* to find a place to rec it!

I just tonight realised how long it's been since I recced anything, but I've had the list of what I planned to rec completed for months! So I'll stop spamming your flists for tonight :D Got to make 5 more posts over the next couple of days and I'm done :)


Claim: Firefly: Inara Serra
Title: Chimera
Author: themoononastick
Characters: Inara/Mal, Mal/Simon
Prompt: 35. Threesome
Rating: PG-13
Length: Medium
Brief summary: So this is more two pairings, but I'm pretending its threesome because of the way the two pairings interact in this fic. And it was surprisingly hard to find really really good Inara threesome fic, and I didn't want to rec one I didn't like AS MUCH just to fill the prompt!

Prompt: 28. Dream.
Rating: PG.
Length: medium (1,197 words)
Brief summary: Five dreams John Sheppard never had about Atlantis—plus one someone else didn't, either. They range in mood and setting, there's even an injection of sly humor in the middle, poking fun at everyone, but on the whole they're uneasy and unsettling. The last one's a gut-punch.

"Quid Pro Quo" & "Out & About"

[jedishadowolf.livejournal.com]

Ye Ol' Rec Table
Claim: Stargate SG-1: Daniel Jackson
Title: Quid Pro Quo
Author: Autumnglory
Characters: Daniel Jackson, Sam Carter
Prompt: 38. Betrayal, 43. Denial
Rating: PG
Length: Short
Brief Summary: How do you deal with your best friend after going mind-to-mind with her double?
Why You Should Read It: When I first started in the SG-1 fandom I thought I saw sparkage between Sam & Daniel. In truth I just loved watching the Science Twins work. The friendship between Sam & Daniel can be so good, and Autumnglory brings that friendship to the forefront. She also brings the sparkage back as well. Now, if you haven't seen Reckoning parts 1 & 2 from Season 8 this story might not make as much sense. But why is this a betrayal & denial story? Denial's easy to see once you start reading, betrayal...well, that's my take on it. Daniel sees the inadvertant invasion of privacy (read the story, it'll make sense) as a betrayal of friendship.
Link: Qui Pro Quo

Claim: Stargate SG-1: Daniel Jackson
Title: Out & About series
Author: Dangermouse
Characters: Daniel Jackson, Jack O'Neill, SGC
Prompt: 13. Established Relationship, 25. Kink
Rating: R
Length: medium, 1st in this series about 65K (the whole series is quite long)
Brief Summary: Daniel & Jack are together, happy, and out of the closet. Will the SGC EVER be the same?
Why You Should Read It: I love Dangermouse's fics. Her portrayal of Jack & Daniel as a long term couple is wonderful. They fight, they make up, they make out, they love each other. Their relationship isn't just about sex (though the sex in the stories is wonderful). Out & About begins the second series in the Coming Out universe. I recommend reading the first series, Coming Out, before you move on to Out & About. All the stories are great. Along the way you'll find humor, angst, h/c, a little light kinkiness, and of course action of all kinds.

Claim: Stargate Atlantis: Elizabeth Weir
Title: Draw
Author: regann
Characters: Elizabeth Weir, Stephen Caldwell, others
Prompt: 46. Reccer's Choice (games)
Length: 1977 words
Brief summary: Weir and Caldwell play games, both on and off the chessboard. I'm not actually a fan of the Weir/Caldwell pairing, but I'm intrigued by it and I like to see why other people think it works, so I read a bit more of it than I probably do any other Weir pairing that I don't support. I also love fic with chess metaphors, even though I've never played the game (terrible of me, I know), because it works so *well* as a metaphor. And this one makes the metaphor work *very* well.

Claim: Stargate Atlantis: Elizabeth Weir
Title: Icarus
Author: emergencyfan
Characters: Elizabeth Weir, Stephen Caldwell
Prompt: 37. make-up
Length: approx 1000 words, I think
Brief Summary: Okay, this may be a bit of a stretch for this prompt, but I think by the end of the fic Weir and Caldwell have reached something of an understanding over the events of "Intruder," with a little help from the myth of the original Daedelus. All the other prompts it fit, though, I'd already done and I don't want to use up all my reccer's choice ones on Caldwell. (Sorry, Colonel. ;-) )

Title: Just Take Me For Granted
Author: great goddess of the cows (wtf. XD)
Characters: Cho, Cedric, Harry
Prompt: 15. Crack!Fic
Rating: PG
Length: Short
Brief summary: This has to be the stupidest, if not the most nonsensical fic I've read. EVER.. Hence the crack!fic prompt. Cedric and Cho are together, but Cho leaves him for Harry, who only wants to have teh sexx0rz. ...and it takes place on a beach. What makes it even funnier is the fact that someone left a review saying "You're such an idiot. I'm very sure that poor little Hufflepuffs do not act like this. How could you do this to Cedric?" Forgive my twisted sense of humor.

Author: painfulclarity for fanfic100
Characters: Cho, (dead) Cedric, mentions of Harry
Prompt: 45. Trapped
Rating: PG-13
Length: Short
Brief summary: I really can't describe the story, mainly because it's just so, so sad and daunting. Also, I wouldn't do justice to it. This is why Cho cries, and why Cho can't forget -- he's everywhere.

Claim: Harry Potter, Cho/Cedric
Title: As You Should Be Remembered
Author: CedricsDream
Characters: Cho, Cedric, and an OC
Prompt: 10. Fandom Cliche
Rating: PG
Length: Short
Brief summary: The biggest Harry Potter fandom cliche of all: A horribly emo Cho. Not because it's canon, but because they can't seem to get enough of it. I will admit that yes, some of the fics I've recced follow these guidelines, but I really wish more people would have fics of Cho and Cedric in their happy times.

Claim: Harry Potter, Cho/Cedric
Title: Whatever Will Be, Will Be
Author: Grommetik
Characters: Cho, Cedric, various Ravenclaws
Prompt: 08. Friendship
Rating: PG-13
Length: Epic (7 Chapters)
Brief summary: How Cho and Cedric finally came to be Cho/Cedric. Disgustingly sweet, mainly because Cho is in denial about her feelings for Cedric at first (even when it's plain to see that he's crazy about her), and just overall a really nice read.

Title: Two for the Price of One
Author: Devra

Prompt: 06. Anger
Rating: PG
Length: short, (about 20pgs.)
Brief Summary: After the events of Season 8's Avatar, Daniel & Teal'c have the chance to clear the air a bit while stuck in the Infirmary.
Why You Should Read It: Devra rocks. She captures the characters' voices so well and her use of Teal'c's anger, and Daniel's defensiveness works perfectly. Warning for non graphic slash.
Link: Two for the Price of One

Claim: Stargate SG-1: Daniel Jackson
Title: Voices Carry
Author: Devra
Characters: Daniel Jackson, Jack O'Neill
Prompt: 17. Jealousy, 37. Make-up
Rating: R
Length: Long, about 200K
Brief Summary: Daniel's stuck somewhere between life, death and Ascension.
Why You Should Read It: Once again Devra strikes just the right chord. There's jealousy, yes, but there's also understanding, remorse, and resolution. This was an excellent way to pick up after Reckoning Part 2. Oh, duh, I almost forgot...this is slash, not graphic, but at the heart of it is Jack/Daniel.

Claim: Queer as Folk: UK - General
Title: Message Received

Prompt: 21. Epiphany
Rating: PG-13
Length: Epic
Brief summary: A story set while Stuart is a Uni. We find out just why Stuart is so dead set against boyfriends. And why Vince is the only one that really matters. What I love about this story is Vince's messages, plus the way that Stuart resists the things he's feeling, and most of all, how he acts with a 'friend', much less a 'boyfriend.' Gives a lot of potential backstory for Stuart, which I love!

Rating: NC-17
Length:Medium
Brief summary: A 'what-if' story about the failed threesome in the 2nd series. This is a great turn around of events from what we see, and the sex is absolutely scorching! I also really enjoy that even though they shag, they can still misunderstand each other. Also, I love the self-assured Vince that shows through here. I would have loved to have seen this play out on screen, instead of what actually happened!

It ends juuuuust before anything exceptionally risque happens, but it's dripping with hoyay and innuendos and things like "I've never given a blowjob" and it's just awesome. ( Excerpts. )

My Rec Table

Claim: Queer as Folk: UK - General
Title: Good & Bad
Author: Paddy
Characters: Stuart/Vince
Prompt: 06. Anger
Rating: NC-17
Length: Medium
Brief summary: What I like about this story is that Paddy writes relationships so true to life. I picked this one specific for anger because of the second half of this story. It illustrates perfectly how people in relationships feel at times, how they are cruel and biting, without necessarily wanting to be -- they just are. The stress of real life, of the working day and of just being around someone all the time are wonderfully illustrated here. I think Paddy handles their relationship so well and so true to life. This story also has some wonderful non-angry parts as well.

Length: Short
Brief summary: Set post-series. Stuart and Vince head back home to visit. What is most interesting though, is what happens on the plane ride back to the states. It's the little details in this fic that make me love it so much: Vince listening to Doctor Who on cd, Stuart and Lisa's sniping at each other and of course, Vince's ability to read Stuart's mind and just 'get' him so well. A really lovely read!
