Amalthia's recs and fan works

I'm using the cut tag because I have a month's worth of recs and I didn't want to kill anyone's bandwidth. :) I'm also about a month behind on updating the Ebook Library. But I think I needed the break. School for the semester is almost over but I'm going to take 2 classes in a 5 week period for Summer I so I'm not sure how that'll go in terms of time required? I suspect updates may be few and far between until summer is over.



Meta

Do DC and Marvel Need a Special Victims Unit? Very interesting food for thought.


Smallville

Stuck Between Heaven and Hell by mahaliem (Pairing:Clark/Lex) I loved the over the top humor and laughed more than once.


Primary Directive by mahaliem (pairing:clark/lex) This was so funny. I laughed more than once. I loved Lex's pov.


Heart of Darkness by dogpoet I loved the use of imagery in the story and how Lex rescued Clark. This was an interesting AU.

The Electric Pull of Spring by merelymine (Pairing:Tim/Kon) This story was a lot of fun. And I loved the ending.


Age of Innocence by Derryderrydown (pairing:Bart/Wally) I loved the character voices and the sex was hot and as the author warns very wrong.


More Than Blood by irrelevant (pairing:Tim/Jason Pairing:Dick/Tim) This hit all my kink buttons hard. Short but intense story.


Music of the Spheres by mithen (Pairing:Bruce/Clark) I think this is one of the longer stories in the DCU fandom and I absolutely love Batman/Superman crossovers. I couldn't stop reading this story once I started.


Autonomous Control by mithen (Pairing:Bruce/Clark) I love stories where Bruce and Clark find out each others secret identities and while this one was short it was still rather hot.


Dodge-town by shrift (Pairing:Dick/Tim) I loved Tim's voice in this story and the sex was hot.


Contingency by thehoyden (Pairing:Bruce/Dick) I loved the character voices and the build up was lovely.


The Way I Was Made by hackthis (Pairing:Tim/Kon) I loved Kon's voice in this story and how it goes back and forth showing defining moments in his life. I also loved Tim's role.


Hawaii Five-0

This Thing of Ours (It Needs a Better Name) by Leupagus (pairing:Danny/Steve) INSTANT REC!!! I loved Danny as a mob boss and how he and Steve fell in love. I remember laughing a few times at the antics in the story.


Highlander

Attention, Shoppers by amand_r (Pairing:Duncan/Methos Pairing:Amanda/Methos) This was so funny and I loved the Wal-Mart moments.

Business Negotiations by elspethdixon (Pairing:Bruce/Tony) I loved Tony Stark's pov and the sex was pretty hot. :) Just wish there were more xovers between Batman and Iron Man.


Iron Man

Look here, look back, look ahead by Marinarusalka (Tony/Steve) I had a blast reading this story. I loved the 1940s AU aspect and how the story played out.


Inception

Mr. Eames and Mr. Eames by jibrailis (Pairing:Arthur/Eames) INSTANT REC!!! This story about killed me! I don't think I laughed this hard in ages. :)

Tangled

What Once Was/Life Begins by still_ciircee (Rapunzel/Eugene) This was a perfect coda to the movie.


Merlin

8x12x8 by skellerbvvt (merlin/arthur) INSTANT REC!!! I rarely read stories this heartbreaking and hopeful.


Before the Sun Breaks Another Day by melting_pot_inc (merlin/arthur) Summary: Three months after her disappearance, Morgana returns to Camelot with a hidden agenda, but she's not the only one keeping secrets, and a series of unintended revelations forces her, Merlin and Arthur on an intertwined journey of revenge, redemption and love.

Review: I loved that the characters were multi-dimensional. The plot made sense, the writing was fantastic, and I loved the interactions between Arthur and Merlin as well as the moments between Merlin and Morgana. All the characters felt fleshed out and I had a hard time putting this story down once I started.


Real Men Don't Wear Girdles by heygirlfriends (pairing:Merlin/Gwaine) I had a blast reading this story. I loved the dirty songs, the poems mixed in, and the character voice for Gwaine.
