- Temeraire: keep a deliberate pace, by mardia.
Temeraire - series | William Laurence/Tenzing Tharkay | NC-17 | ~ 4,000 words
"An outsider might have found it absurd, a British officer, the son of a nobleman, tending to a wandering nobody like Tharkay, doing a task fit for a valet or common servant."
Set during Blood of Tyrants, contains spoilers for the book and the entire series.
-- > Love this. I really like Tharkay's voice here, and the slow build of the tension, and the release.

Check Please! | Eric Bittle/Jack Zimmerman | NC-17 | ~ 6,100 words
Jack's just taking pictures whenever he sees something worth photographing, something that seems to fit what he's being told in class, about line and shape and color and beauty.
It's like the camera knew before Jack did.
-- > This is lovely and breath-taking. Love Jack's voice here, and how he sees Bittle.

due South | Benton Fraser/Ray Kowalski | PG-13 | ~ 5,100 words
Sometimes Fraser acts like he's from a different planet. Which makes sense, because he is.
Or, the adventures of Fraser and Ray on the space cruiser Chicago.
-- > Really enjoyable AU, in SPACE! Love the world-building, and how it doesn't intrude the story.

Doctor Who (1963) | Gen; Jo Grant | G | ~ 540 words
Jo Grant sighed as she listened to the businessman sitting next to her drone on and on about synergy or whatever to his friend. She was on her own for the moment, as the Doctor had gone off to do something and asked her to meet up with him later. (They were currently somewhere in the first decade of the twenty-first century.) She wasn't due to reunite with the Doctor for a while yet, and had hoped to sneak in a bit of shopping, but the train had stopped because of a problem somewhere further ahead in the tunnel. Already, they'd been waiting for half an hour.
-- > Jo rocks. This little ficlet shows how clever Jo is. Very funny, this had me grinning.

- TeW: Putting the F-U-N in Funeral, by apocryphal.
Teen Wolf (TV) | Derek Hale/Stiles Stilinski | PG-13 | ~
"Hale & Daughters Funeral Home," Derek says dully.
"Oh ho! And which daughter are you?"
Derek casts his eyes up to the ceiling. It's going to be one of those calls.
(In which Derek is a bored secretary, Stiles is a baker who may or may not have ulterior motives, and there are entirely too many macaroons.)
-- > This is pure fluff, but enjoyable fluff. Love Derek and Stiles here. Love the humor and the banter.
(Only Derek/Stiles is the main pairing.)

- TeW: Imagine Me and You, by eebee.
Teen Wolf (TV) | Dere Hale/Stiles Stilinski | R | ~ 50,400 words
Everybody always says that if/when you meet your soulmate, you'll just know. That everything will be sunshine and daisies, and behold a light shall shineth down from heaven. That's pretty much always how it goes in those movies. They see each other across a crowded ballroom, courtroom, bump into each other reaching for the same loaf of organic oatmeal flax bread at Whole Foods.
The media lies, people! That totally didn't happen!
or,
Soulmates Stiles and Derek meet, but don't notice their fledgling soulmate bond.
-- > Great use of the soulmate trope. Love Derek and Stiles here. They read true to me. Love the slow build of the romance.
