the countdown hasn't just begun, it's about to run me over
It cannot be Dec 20. Can. Not. Be. OMG. While I go into the full-blown pre-holiday frenzy, here, have some more H5-0 fic that has made me really happy over the last few weeks:
Take It From The Inside, by![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ariadnes_string, Hawaii Five-0, Steve/Danny, NC-17, ~3600 words === Coda for 1x09. Knife kink. Holy crap, this was hot. But you guys know I'm in this for the emotional connection, and I am so happy to tell you that this one nails it. Check the warnings if knife/blood/pain-play is an issue, but this is me, waving all kinds of happy-flags to tell you that it has way more depth (and sweetness and caring and love) than your basic run-of-the-mill kink-fic, so even if knives don't do it for you, Danny taking care of Steve just might.
When All of New York Misses You, byleupagus and sutlers, Hawaii Five-0, Steve/Danny, NC-17, ~15,500 words === Steve's logic in this one? Totally from Mars. So, y'know, completely in character. Long and satisfying team fic that I don't want to spoil, but everybody is so good: competent and stubborn and determined to fix the hole in their lives.
Signals, bydestina, Hawaii Five-0, Steve/OMC (pre-series), NC-17, ~1700 words === One of my things about a lot of fic that's written in H5-0 is how it glosses over/ignores/doesn't have a clue what it means to be a SEAL. destina doesn't do that. (Not that this should come as a shock or anything.) This is a McGarrett with laser-focused intensity, one who lives his life balanced on a knife edge. This isn't a long piece at all, but every word counts.
Throw Away The Flowers, byaudrarose, Hawaii Five-0, Steve/Danny, NC-17, ~3400 words === Sometimes a girl just needs a H/C fix, right? If she's really lucky, something this excellent will pop up right as she's thinking that and she'll manage to read it on her phone in between a long day of RL and once again prove out the truth in how she does have a life--fandom is what keeps her from committing murder in it.
Pineapples Killed My Neighbors, or This Would Never Happen in New Jersey, Part 1 and Part 2, byohladybegood, Hawaii Five-0, Steve/Danny, R, ~8100 words (so far) === Canned pineapple starts the zombie apocalypse and Five-0 deals. By turns funny and gory and heart-breaking, with excellent supporting characters (Mary, Max, Rachel, Kamekona... the list goes on.) Still a WiP, but I didn't want to lose track of it. At this point, the Steve/Danny is mostly at the same level as the show but since entire fandoms and thousands of slash fics have been written on far less, that's not really a problem, yeah? (More typos than I'd ordinarily rec, but still, lots of fun.)
Cupid's Chokehold, bynel_ani, Hawaii Five-0, Steve/Danny, vid === Steve/Danny 101, set to Cupid's Chokehold by Gym Class Heroes. Watch it and smiiiiiiile.
Harbors of Our Own, by![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
elandrialore, Hawaii Five-0, Steve/Danny, vid === One of the things that I try really hard to figure out when I'm writing is what each half of a relationship (or third or fourth, you know how that goes sometimes) brings to the mix--everybody needs to be getting something from their partner, right? This vid is a really nice mix of what Steve brought into Danny's life, but as you watch it, there's a lot of what Danny has brought into Steve's, too, all of which makes me v. v. happy.
Fix Definitely As Desired, bygiddygeek, Hawaii Five-0, Steve/Danny, Adult, 15,700 words === Seriously awesome banter and character insight; as I was reading this, it felt like where the show left off, this just kept going to whatever was going on in their personal lives, and then we'd pick back up with another scene that'd be on the show. All that, plus hot sex, too. \o/
My last set of H5-0 recs is here (unlocked on DW.)

But I like the house being there on the other side of Diamond Head, still near the city, rather than across the island. I know it's silly but it would have messed with the vibe when I'm writing it. Is this where I should mention that I have it marked on a googlemap?

How weird would it be to have your wedding at the McGarrett house?!
