Smallville Table
Claim: Smallville (all pairings)
Title:Piece of the Action
Author: Te
Characters: Clark/Lex; Clark/OC
Prompt:Original Character
Rating:NC-17
Length: medium
Brief summary: Honestly I would rec everything te has written if it were up to me. She always has a dead on sense of character, and knows her way around a good hot sex scene. She also knows how to create an original character, that is interesting but doesn't over shadow the main players. The OC in this fic seems like exactly the kind of woman Lex would know and her presence in the story serves not only to move the plot but to give us a little insight into both Lex and Clark.

Title:Past Grief
Author:Te
Characters:Clark/Lex; other characters appear
Prompt:Hurt/Comfort
Rating:NC-17
Length: long
Brief summary: With Past Grief Te proves that she can craft a story, that is moving and complex as well as hot. This story is a classic in the fandom and with good reason. It is dark, moody, and wonderfully well written. This is what happens when Clark loses everything, and Lex is the one to provide him comfort. Here Lex is not so much evil as amoral, and clark is just young enough to be effected by that. Enjoy.

Rating: NC-17

Brief summary: Well the prompt is kink and this fic has it in spades. It also has something that most kink fic is missing context.

Not to mention the writing in this fic is lovely some of the very best in this fandom. ( Here's a sample. )

Title: The Fourth Wall

Characters: Clark/Lex and 4 original characters
Prompt: Alternate Universe
Rating: NC-17

Brief summary: If you have read this author before you know that caelum is a good storyteller and can make almost any scenario an interesting read. This is a perfect example of that. It is a crazy AU where the boys end up in the living room of some very crafty fangirls, yet it fits perfectly with the world of Smallville. We all wish this would happen to us.
