Manifest Destiny, Misterious Ways

My big Choey Table

Claim: *N Sync: Chris/Joey
Title: Manifest Destiny
Author: giogio
Characters: Chris, Joey, Lance, Justin, JC,
Prompt: 43. Denial
Rating: Mature / R
Length: Medium
Brief summary: Maybe it is because Joey is Italian, but there's this constant theme of him being really religious. In Manifest Destiny, Giogio grabs that idea and runs with it in one of the most touching versions I've ever read of a Joey totally in denial. Also, one of the most fun dominant!Lance I've ever seen.

Claim: *N Sync: Chris/Joey
Title: Misterious Ways
Author: [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]
Characters: Chris, Joey, Brianna, Lance, JC, Justin, AJ.
Prompt: 28. Dream
Rating: G.
Length: Long
Brief summary: So taking advantage of the 1 each 10 recs, here's an Au not in the AU prompt. Here Chris has visions of Joey's missing daughter. Between Joey's genuine sorrow at the loss of Brianna, and Chris's will to help, it's hard to say which is the best characterization of the fic. Also, it wins my award for worst first meeting of a future pair. And Deidre makes it work.

"Summer Holiday" & "A Holiday of Sorts"

My Big Table


Claim: Harry Potter, Remus/Sirius
Title: "Summer Holiday"
Author: Lise, [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]
Characters: Remus, Sirius
Prompt: 34. Vacation.
Rating: PG-13
Length: long
Brief summary: Remus and Sirius are dating, spending some of their summer vacation together. Remus writes James to ask for some advice. I just love Remus fics where he's a little unsure what Sirius wants from him, but he's willing to take whatever Sirius has to offer. And yet, that doesn't make him weak. He's still as dry and witty as he should be. The story just rings true to me.

Title: "A Holiday of Sorts"
Author: [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]
Characters: Remus, Sirius
Prompt: 37. Make-up.
Rating: PG-13
Length: long
Brief summary: Everything that I love about post Prank stories. The slow steps toward forgiveness, wondering if trust can ever be regained. Angsty, yet of course, with this being for the make-up prompt, a hopeful ending.
