Title: The Corruption of Canon (on LJ)
Author: virtualinsomnia
Characters: Canon/Fanon
Rating: Teen
Summary: Canon meets Fanon and everything changes.
Reason for the Recommendation: I always want to start with this one because I think it captures cultural attitudes about canon perfectly and I love the idea of fanon as the bad boy your mom warned you about.
CSI
Title: A Decided Lack of Equality (here)
Author: Michelle K.
Characters: Catherine/Sara
Rating: Teen
Summary: It's the last time. Really.
Reason for the Recommendation: It's a drabble so there's not a lot of room for characterization. That might be one of the reasons I like, it actually. The desperation and self-destructiveness conveyed in 100 words is powerful and universal.
Good Omens
Title: A Good End (on LJ)

Characters: Crowley and Aziraphale
Rating: Everyone
Summary: Two friends at the end of the world. Again.
Reason for the Recommendation: The author captures Pratchett and Gaiman's tone and the voices of Crowley and Aziraphale perfectly. There's humor and affection and a little sadness. It's lovely.
