Joy Ride

Rec table

Claim: Angel: Wesley Wyndam-Pryce
Title: Joy Ride
Author: rayne_y_daze
Characters: Wesley, Spike,
Prompt: 8: Friendship
Rating: PG
Length: Short
Brief summary: Wes and Spike are one of my favourite pairs. And while sex is nice, reading a fic where they’re just friends is so refreshing. Read the series of drabbles before the fic. They’re just hilarious.

Quick Excerpt:

Muttering to himself, Spike started peeling layers of clothing. "Two drunk Brits, skinny-dipping in the Pacific Ocean at 3 in the bloody morning. This should end well."

Music, True Romance

[luxshine.livejournal.com]

Claim: *N Sync: Chris/Joey
Title: Music
Author: jewelianna
Characters: Chris, Joey.
Prompt: 49. Reccer’s Choice
Rating: PG
Length: Short
Brief summary: For some unknown reason, Joey listen music in his head. No one knows about it except Chris. I loved this story from the summary, mostly because I can’t be without music for long and the idea of Joey having his own personal mental soundtrack was interesting, to say the least. While it is a relationship piece, it is also a very interesting take of Joey’s thoughts during the lawsuit period.

Claim: *N Sync: Chris/Joey
Title: True Romance
Author: Rhys
Characters: Chris, Joey, JC, Justin, Lance, Kelly, Brianna
Prompt: 20. Fight
Rating: R
Length: Longish
Brief summary: This is, easily, one of my top ten favorite Choey stories. Chris decides that the perfect boyfriend is Joey and goes out of his way to convince Joey of that, including a written proposal. The fic is not, however, about how they get together, but about how Chris’s life changes from the moment he decides to go after Joey –with a very good section dedicated to Why Joey and not the others- to the end of the story, with a very painful fight in the middle, when Joey decides he can’t be with Chris.

Black Wren Road, Imaginary Boyfriend

[luxshine.livejournal.com]

Claim: *N Sync: Chris/Joey
Title: Black Wren Road
Author: Chris J
Characters: Chris, Joey, Nick Carter, AJ Mc Lean, JC.
Prompt: 02. AU
Rating: PG-ish
Length: Long
Brief summary: In this particular universe, Chris is a college student working on his thesis, who moved recently into a new apartment which apparently is haunted by the spirit of the murdered Nickolas Carter. With the help of Joey, a long time friend, Chris begins unraveling the mystery of Nick’s death in 1916. Filled with small cameos of members of both bands, other pop stars and people important in the lives of *N Sync and BSB, Black Wren Road is a very good AU and a terrific mystery story.

Claim: *N Sync: Chris/Joey
Title: Imaginary Boyfriend
Author: Tracy
Characters: Chris, Joey.
Prompt: 50. Reccer’s Choice
Rating: R
Length: Short
Brief summary: A weird take on the ‘Be careful what you wish for’, Chris finds himself with a version of Joey that is the perfect boyfriend. Perfect in every sense except for the fact that it isn’t the real Joey. It’s very interesting to see how Chris reacts, especially when he realizes that his perfect Joey is not Joey, and the way he deals with the situation.

Well, this is it. 50 recs. It was a great ride, and I hope you all enjoyed the fics as much as I did. I don’t think I’ll be doing Round III, but you will probably see me again for Round IV, because I had a lot of fun.

"Matters of Style" + "In The Still Of The Night"

[turlough]

My prompt table/list.

Claim: Backstreet Boys: general
Title: Matters of Style
Author: Jain, at A Wild Surmise and jain
Characters: AJ, Howie, Lance, JC
Prompt: 29 Oops
Rating: -
Length: short/medium
Brief summary: This is one of the sweetest and quietly funny stories I know. Seen through AJ's jaded but kind eyes the courtship of Howie and JC is a joy to watch - from their bonding over pastel dildos, over the "ooops" happenings in the dressing room, to AJ's gigantic sacrifice to smooth the way of the new relationship. The second thread of the story, the snarky banter and the development of something between the equally bored AJ and Lance, is an added bonus to an already delightful tale.

Prompt: 40 Confession
Rating: PG
Length: short
Brief summary: This is a wonderfully atmospheric little story, filled with the stillness of the night, the growing closeness between the characters, and the expected-but-perhaps-not-like-that confessions.
