For some reason, my back hurts. Must've been the way I slept last night.
GARGH! The pressure and harassment of work -_-; I'm a masochist if I enjoy it.

Only The Cursed
by Laily
[Shigure, Hatori (friendship) :: Drama. Angst. :: PG-13 :: slight language and some spoilers for the manga]
Sometimes a good shounen ai fic does not have to involve romance (and some sex), it is best served with a few rounds of sarcasm and banter, a few awkward moments and of course, boy-lovin' in the not so perverse manner. And that's just what I liked about this fic--short, simple and clean. And inspite of the drama and angst, it was nicely portrayed.

A Little Stress Relief
by Ryuuza
[Kyo/Yuki :: Romance. Drama. Citrus. :: R - NC17 :: yaoi, explicit scenes, language]
My super secret fave alternate pairing--which is not so secret anymore.
Kyo and Yuki try to work out their... relationship, and upon discovering some deeper feelings with what started out as simply some "stress relief", they found out they can never truly go back to what once was. Indeed, sex changes everything. But I enjoyed how the eventual events leading to this "new found partnership" between two supposedly sworn enemies had unfold. Well-written and engaging; the smut was hot too, but of course it wouldn't be complete without the usual Cat n' Mouse banter to which the author managed to keep in character.

Smoothie
by Vanilla Ofuda
[Hatori/Ayame :: Romance. Fluff. :: PG :: shounen-ai]
A light and fluffy hatoyame fic--hey, it involves smoothies, what d'ya expect!? Sure, it's almost a friendship fic if you squint at it at a 45 degree angle, but then again, Ayame's involved. Not much more to be said about this short story: it's sweet, it's adorable, and it's fun to poke fun at a confused Hatori who couldn't say 'No' to a boisterous Snake.
