(Okay, it just occurred to me - I can think of three major pairings involving a character with a single name: Kirk/Spock, Duncan/Methos, Arthur/Merlin. What's the fourth? It'd make a great recs set.)

Dean/Castiel is another one. Also, Aziraphale/Crowley.

*awards you TWO gold stars for coming up with two pairings*

Wow. The thing is, I now have enough for, like, a double recs set. I sense a challenge! Which will probably not be fulfilled until I reach my 300th set, but still.

I don't know if you read much Supernatural fic, but I just read Anything Worth Dying For and it is my new favorite thing ever. I have a bunch of other Dean/Cas bookmarks, too.

(I really couldn't get into the fandom except for genfic -- of which there is some very excellent stuff -- until after Cas showed up; incest is one of the few things I won't read. For the record, though, if you haven't read

I've never read much SPN (mostly because incest is one of my bulletproof squicks - I just cannot, no matter how much I try - and I was unlucky enough to encounter, in the very early days of the fandom, two stories in a row that were labeled "gen" when they should have been labeled "Sam/Dean" and then rated PG-13), but I've been sort of flirting with Dean/Castiel, so I will definitely Kindle that story.

And, oh god YES, I have so very much read Dust in the Wind. It is AWESOME. Eeee! (Have you read the equally awesome American Gods x SPN The Gods Might Offer Gifts?)

Yeah, it's one of mine too. It's also a hard fandom for me because I really go in for stories with happy endings, and the nature of the show itself means that you get a lot of fantastic but utterly heartbreaking fic.

Conversations With Angels is another another good long Dean/Castiel fic. Eternally Needing Proof (90 Proof) and its sequels are hilarious and pretty much gen, and they have good Sam in them too. I can't actually read the second in the series because it hits my embarrassment squick really hard, but I love the first and third. Two Kinds of Light, by the same author, is simply wonderful. Definitely one of my favorite fics in any fandom.

I haven't read the other crossover-- thanks!
