Weekend reading

Jul 03, 2011 22:46

This was meant to go out Friday. Whoops. I'm posting it anyway because next Friday, I may not be on the 'Net much.

It's funny, I'll wander into amazing fic on A03 through recommendations on crack_van , or
fancake , or
unfitforsociety and, no surprise, some of you guys have been there before me. The funny part was that I found myself grumbling about, "Hey, no one told me about this!" Except, really, you're not required to! But it made me think it might not be a bad idea to post links to fic I've been reading recently and enjoyed, regardless of the fandom, because I can't be the only one who'll read something just because it looks good. So, here they are. I won't get a list out next Friday, but I'll save tabs for the Friday or Saturday after that. (If you think I'm looking forward to the auto-post entries on Dreamwidth, you are so right.)

By daybreak, we'll be gone, by
storm_petrel . The Losers. Summary on AO3: "Once you go into the woods, you don’t come back out again; or, how Franklin Clay got himself a pack." This fic and SDWolfpup's Festivid, Pump It convinced me to move The Losers up the Netflix list and have led to me bingeing on Losers fic on AO3. Oops?

Show Me How To Stop Running, by
etothepii . Sherlock - BBC. Summary on AO3: "John gets turned into a werewolf during Afghanistan, and it sucks, but then he moves in with another werewolf, and it gets better." Fun. (Yes,
fancake is doing 'supernatural aspects' this month; why do you ask?)

Dust In The Wind, by lyra_wing . Supernatural/American Gods. Summary on LJ: "Future fic. Erm. Hard to explain. This is a crossover with American Gods, but you don't need to read that to understand what's going on." I know SPN mostly through fannish osmosis, and loved this. Enjoy!

Notes from the desk of the Barrayaran Cultural Liaison Officer, by
ankaret . Vorkosigan novels. Summary on AO3: "The job of Barrayaran Cultural Liaison Officer is one that often makes its holder wish for a transfer, perhaps even to a weather station." Do not eat or drink while reading this. Yes. Really.

Bent By Paths Coincident, by jedibuttercup . Firefly/Leverage fusion. Summary on LJ: "Two men walked into a bar.... Mal would recognize the compact, long-haired man in the worn duds anywhere."

I Used To Live Alone Before I Knew You, by
etothepii . Sherlock- BBC/Good Omens fusion. Summary on AO3: "Where Mycroft is an angel, Sherlock is a demon, and John is still John."

I'll mention that some of these are gen, some are m/m slash.  The slash is on AO3 and marked as such.
