first monday back

So far, it's not a complete disaster, so I guess I'll take it. One day at a time, for sure.

I know I have more than this, but if I don't post these, I'll lose them again:

curving like the ocean toward you, by [livejournal.com profile] gyzym, Hawaii Five-0, Steve/Danny, NC-17, ~20,500 words === Steve, Danny, John's house. I keep seeing people talk about how Steve never really deals with John's death on the show, and while I subscribe to the theory that hanging people off of a roof, and threatening others with deportation *is* how Steve is dealing with it, this is another take on him dealing, and one that I could also subscribe to. There's also a short sequel, weight of days lost holding you down.

The Break-Even Point, by [livejournal.com profile] faye_dartmouth, Hawaii Five-0/Ocean's 11, Adult, long === Pre-series H50, O11/O12/O13. How Turk Malloy became Danny Williams, with a sequel addressing the missing $10 million from the vault. It'll probably help if you've seen the Ocean's movies, but if you have, this is awesome fun, with a solid foundation and great characterization under it all.

All The Girls Out On The Stoop, by [personal profile] mirabella, Hawaii Five-0/HP fusion, Steve/Danny, NC-17, ~13,000 words === Danny is a Veela. No, seriously. (And I can't believe I haven't mentioned this one yet, but apparently I was asleep at the wheel or something.)

As The Night Caves In, by [archiveofourown.org profile] zarah5, Hawaii Five-0, Steve/Danny, minor Chin/Kono, Adult, ~19,000 words === Nightmares, prescription drug smuggling, stakeouts, and kidnappings. These are the stuff that relationships are built on, at least in the Five-0 world, right? Right.

Ho'omaka'ana, by [personal profile] kassHawaii Five-0, Steve/Danny, NC-17, ~2500 words === A little sexy, a little schmoopy, a little bit of pining, a little bit of banter. What could be better?

If You Die, I'll Kill You, by [livejournal.com profile] tailoredshirt, Hawaii Five-0, Steve/Danny, PG-13, ~5,000 words === So there's this thing called the Death Race (no, really, it exists.) Raise your hand if you're not surprised Steve wants to do it. Raise your other hand if you can predict Danny's less than enthusiastic response. :D

There's A First Time For Everything, by [livejournal.com profile] kate_lear, Sherlock, Sherlock/John, NC-17, ~21,000 words === Most of the time, I think I'm firmly in the 'Sherlock is asexual' camp (RDJ's Holmes aside, because, yeah, no) but this makes a sexual and romantic relationship between Sherlock and John work and I don't think I once thought it was even the slightest bit out of character. Also, 21K words and I read it on my phone, in the car, with the usual chaos from the House of Boys on a roadtrip in the background. It was a fabulous distraction.

Got A Mortgage On My Body, by [livejournal.com profile] cards_slash, Supernatural, Sam/Dean, NC-17, ~ 4100 words === For a trope that's been written a million times in SPN (bondage, rough sex), this is very fresh and vivid. Very Sam, very Dean, with well-done Sam POV that never slips but also gives a crystal clear picture of Dean, too. Plus, it's hotter than hell (pun intended.)

With Open Eyes, by [livejournal.com profile] madame_meretrix, CWrps, Jeff/Jensen, NC-17, ~ 5000 words === This is that most rare of breeds, a Jeff/Jensen where there really aren't any power issues. Don't get me wrong, I'm generally okay with the norm (clearly--how often do I write it myself, at least a minor level of it) but this is a really sexy Jensen and a kindof quiet, caretaking Jeff and it's very very nice. And hot.

At First Sight, by [livejournal.com profile] cleflink, CWrps, Jared/Jensen, PG, ~ 8000 words === Sometimes you just need a fairy tale where the prince wears a blindfold because his fairy godmother blessed him with the gift of love at first sight, and the stableboy is hopelessly in love with him already, especially when the prince is kind of snarky and the stableboy is really, really hopelessly in love. This is one of those ones that you draw hearts around for a year and a day.

thank you for the wonderful rec's! The link for There's a First Time for Everything is pointing towards As the Night Caves In. I'd love to read that Sherlock fic if you get the chance to post the link.
