that purple thing is a ruler
Shockingly, today was a snow day, and because I'm a sub they...called me at 5am...to let me know...even though I didn't have a job scheduled. rggghh.
BUT IT'S BEEN A WHILE SINCE A REC POST! Or I've just been reading a lot of fic, either way! (eta: wow there is actually so much I might break this list in half and save the rest for next time o.O)
Belle Epoque by songbird: Marcus/Esca (The Eagle/Downton Abbey fusion). "WHAAAT??" you say? HOLY FUCK, I say back. Written from Dame Maggie Smith's Character's POV and just. aldsjflaskjflasdkjflakdjflasdkjflasdkjflasdkjflasdkjfladkjfalskdjflakdjfladjf GO. G O. JESUS FUCK GO.
Hetaeriae Eaeque Brevi Fient by sineala: Marcus/Esca (The Eagle). Have I mentioned lately how much I adore undercover-as-a-couple fic? How about tropes done in a fresh and believable way? HMMMMMMMMMMMMMM???
Point of a Pistol by giddygeek: Harold/John (Person of Interest). In which Root loses what's left of her sanity and goes after them. This was gooood. The author has the dry but witty banter down to a T, and the whole cast of supporting characters was SPOT ON. A+++
Employment Benefits by astolat: Harold/John/Shaw (Person of Interest). fffffffFFFFFF. I NEVER WOULD'VE THOUGHT ABOUT IT, BUT THIS IS SCARY PERFECT??
All Of Harold's Friends Are Assholes by lazulisong: Harold&John, (Person of Interest). This is a perfect little cupcake of a fic. An assortment of Harold's birthdays.
Two to Tango by twentysomething and thehoyden: Sid/Geno (Hockey). OH. MY. FUCKING. GOD. ZOO KEEPER/TEACHER AU. And I'm not usually one to reread a lot of fics but I read this TWICE IN A ROW and keeled over from afuckingdorable asldkfjls feelings both times and and and FUCK IT i might reread it again today I JUST.
Never Mind the Allen Wrench by toomuchplor: Arthur/Eames (Inception). In which Arthur needs Eames' help to fix the Passiv, and it all works...far better than expected. :33
Go on, Bite the Apple by bosssuet: Ragnar/Lagertha/Athelstan (Vikings). The first few times it happens, he manages to roll over and ignore it. Y'all know what I'm talkin' 'bout, mmmmyes.
lead us not into temptation by kim47: Ragnar/Lagertha/Athelstan (Vikings). They are especially loud tonight. Look, I will read Each and Every Single Version Of This Premise, not going to lie.
I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweet by glovered: Sam/Dean (Supernatural - Vid). Gorgeous gorgeous GORGEOUS vid. Perfect in every way, even though I'm pretty sick of the song. :D
Dirigibles and Talking Dogs by hapakitsune: Andy/Russel (Toy Story/Up). GUYS I HAVEN'T EVEN SEEN 'UP' AND THIS WAS TOO FUCKING CUTE.
In other news! I've signed up as an author for the AO3 FUND RAISING FIC AUCTION! Bidding starts April 15th, so you should see about signing up yourself and/or thinking about what type of fics you might like to bid for! The AO3 does such a fucking amazing job and they're all non-profit, I had no idea how freakishly expensive it is just to keep that site running and they're doing it all by donations, so please, guys, help in any way you can! Even if it's just donating a dollar!
*hugs all around!*
