Things Wut I've Recced Recently
So I've made a couple of sets of reccomendations in random places over the internet, and I figured that you guys might enjoy them as well! The road trip ones were to fullfill brynnmck's request for Happy Tag and the bandom recs are either from heartsinact's rec fest or just ones that I felt compelled to flail to my sister about over e-mail. Enjoy! :o)
Road Trippin'
Hands On The Wheel, Eyes On The Sky by inlovewithnight (Due South & Angel, Charles Gunn & Benton Fraser, PG)
Not that anybody had ever asked Gunn what he wanted to do when he grew up, but if they had, he wouldn't have said travel the continent hunting demons with an ex-Mountie, a deaf wolf, and a manifestation of ultimate evil in my head. Even as a kid, he would've been able to tell that that sucked as a life plan.
Sometimes life didn't offer you a lot of choices, though.
Postcard 'Verse by likeadeuce (Angel, Wesley/Faith, up to NC-17)
“You still have the bike?”
“Yes, but, Faith. . .”
“Good, I got one, too,” and, anticipating his question, “Fell off a truck. If we get on the road now, we can pull an ambush while it’s still light. Should all be five by five.”
“Faith! Slow down! I need to be at work in an hour. What am I supposed to tell Wolfram & Hart?”
”Tell them I forced you.” She grins. “Tell them I had a gun.”
Books of the Living, Books of the Dead 'Verse by poisontaster (Supernatural, Gen and Wincest, up to PG-13)
Sammy isn't the only one with dreams. Dean just doesn't talk about his. They're not…relevant.
With typical cosmic humor, Sam's the one that dreams of the living, but Dean only ever dreams of the dead.
Urge for Going by musesfool (Ocean's 11, Danny/Rusty, PG)
"Is something wrong?"
"Not... wrong, exactly. But I'm not going to make it back for dinner."
"Danny--" Her voice was sharp and he could imagine the pinched, angry look on her face. "Tell Rusty--"
I'm Looking Different Than Me by lyra-wing (OC & Supernatural, Dean/Ryan, R)
“Shut. Up.” Sam threw the pillow in the direction of the voice.
“Um.” A cautious pause. “Okay. I think I need to call the police,” said the voice, now clearer, and now… definitely not Dean’s.
“What are you…?” Sam sat up. Blinked and turned around.
Then wondered where his gun was. And whether this would be a good time to pass out.
More Than You Know by nutkin (CW RPS, Jared/Jensen, R)
It all starts with a flippant comment, something about showing up in living rooms across the country without having seen much of it. Jensen says interesting things like that all the time, and you like to make irrational plans.
The summer's coming up, fast and hot, and there are a million other things you could do, should do.
"Why the fuck not?" Jensen says, cracking his gum.
Between you, you have: four parents, three girlfriends, an almost-fiancée, a movie about a painter, a movie about a sandwich shop, $30K in a bank account, a case of Corona and a pack of Doublemint.
"Why the fuck not," you reply, putting on your sunglasses. The truck isn't as roomy as an Impala, but it gets way better mileage.

Gave me something (I could) by awkward-sorta (Cobra Starship, Gabe/his band, G)
Two minutes later, while Gabe is sprawled half on Alex, half on their beat up old bus couches, Pete gets a text: Gabe's getting soft in his old age xoxo. He texts back, Little Gabe or Big Gabe? It's the only time Pete Wentz has ever used capitals on a sidekick. On the Cobras' bus Marty grabs his skateboard and the opening chords of 'Power of Love' kick in. Miles across the country, Travis replies, He's writing love songs these days.
Lollapalooza 2006: The one where they make Ryan come in his pants by pornomimedusk (Panic! at the Disco, GSF, NC-17, warning for sex toys and possible consent issues)
Ryan is trembling and looks thoroughly debauched already, lower lip red and swollen from his teeth, when Jon lets him up. He stays pliant when Brendon fixes his underwear and pants.
He lets Jon tie the red scarf about his hips, and lets Spencer get him into his vest, attaching the chains and making sure the roses are full and perfect for him.
Ryan's concentrating far too much on moving as naturally as possible with a toy inside him that he misses when Brendon passes a piece of paper and a tiny box to Zack on the way to the stage.
Teen Hearts by imogenedisease and madsciencechick (Panic! at the Disco & Fall Out Boy, Joe Trohman/Spencer Smith, NC-17)
"Uh," Joe says. "Hi." Given the circumstances, he feels that this qualifies as intelligent conversation. "Um. How are--what?"
"Get over here," Spencer orders. Joe blinks. Spencer raises an eyebrow. Joe frowns. Spencer crosses his arms. "Whenever you're ready," he says. "No rush, or anything. I mean it's not like I have to leave in seven hours or anything."
"Seven hours?" Joe echoes blankly.
"Joe." Spencer sounds like he's maybe getting kind of angry. Joe starts moving.
Tell Me To Stop by airgiodslv (Panic! at the Disco, Spencer/Brendon, AU, NC-17, warning for kink)
It’s true, though. Ryan doesn’t bat an eye at anything Spencer does or tells him, and the jerks like Brent go running the first time Spencer pulls out handcuffs. “He said I was pushy.”
“You scared him,” Ryan translates. He glances over again, mostly hidden behind the designer shades, but Spencer knows how to read him.
“What?” he asks, and holds Ryan’s bear claw hostage until he relents.
“You have no idea what you’re doing, okay?” Ryan says in exasperation, blowing out a huffy breath. “I’m just saying. I think…I might know a guy.”
Sunflowers and Unicorns (This Ain't a Scene, It's an Orgy) by formerlydf (Cobra Starship, Panic! at the Disco & The Academy Is ..., Gabe Sporta/Brendon Urie/William Beckett, PG)
"So what?" he asks, raising his eyebrows. Gabe's got a reputation too, but he's drinkless and nowhere near a basement, and so most likely harmless.
"Bill says you're a member of the club," Gabe explains, and Brendon asks, "What club?"
"The club where you don't have sex with a different person each night. It's a very exclusive club," Gabe announces loftily. "We're the only three in it."
Burn Up in Love Love Love by dsudis (Panic! at the Disco, GSF, NC-17)
His phone chimed for another text, atleast heat it up dude. It took Jon a moment to realize that Ryan hadn't suddenly misplaced the shift key; the message was from Spencer.
Because he and Ryan were eating lunch together. Well, of course. No matter what Ryan said, he wouldn't stay away from Spencer for long.
Another text followed almost before he'd finished that thought, and Jon's stomach clenched.
Brendon. No nukes!!!!!
Jon finished his slice, and picked Dylan up. He went back to bed, leaving his phone on the counter beside the rest of the pizza.
