If there's a fic posted elsewhere that you would like to recommend to the community, feel free to do so. Recs can be given their own posts (and will be rounded up along with the comm's fic) or, conversely, you can comment to this post if you'd like to see something included in next month's list. Please at minimum include Title, Author and a Link to the fic. If possible, Rating, Pairings (if applicable), and a brief Summary would also be helpful. Fic need not be new to be rec'd, but should be related to the theme of our beloved Sammessiah.
