If you haven't read anything by holyfant, you ought to do so. Right now. I am kind of pissed that I missed this author for so long when their work is uniformly excellent.

I'm still not finished reading all their fic, but I particularly recommend The Fabric of Life, which is a fantastic Return fic.

So like a year or so ago I saw this picture on Wikipedia and had perhaps the strongest and most instant sexual reaction I'd ever had to any image, ever, so I put up a horrifically embarrassing prompt on the kinkmeme. And a while ago,

Can you folks please rec me some longfic? I'm looking for new stuff and/or old favorites I haven't read in a good while, to load up my kindle for my vacations this month.

Let me tell you about some shit.

A Beginner's Guide to Apiology by VictoryCandescence - This has been making the rounds, so it's not exactly an exciting new find. But it's great and worth a look. Be warned: this is very sweet, but also sad. It's an au where Sherlock and John meet as old men in Sussex. (There is character death.)

Not yet dead by castiron - Enthralling narrative, sublimely written. Castiron's strength seems to be in their ability to take a seemingly absurd premise and make it work beyond all expectation. This particular story supposes that Dr. Watson and Mr. Holmes were real, 19th century people- Holmes died at the falls, and Watson was convicted of his ( Read more... )

I know this isn't Wednesday, I caught that, thank you. But I really did mean to do one of these this week, and totally forgot. (I thought I was hitting every other week, but I seem to be posting about one in three. Oops.)

So here's what's on my kindle this week:

Stars in a Phyrgian Sky by fresne - Big ole warning here- this is omegaverse. ( Read more... )

I went out for a shopping trip, but thanks to one-way streets I ended up routed onto an interstate and landed two miles away in a bad part of town. The only way the city layout could have fucked me worse is if it routed me into an active volcano. AND DON'T THINK IT DIDN'T TRY.

So without more bs, here's what's on my kindle this week (besides ( Read more... )

Less than usual, actually, because I've mostly been reading about deep sea submersibles at home, and listening to Louis CK on the bus. Anyway.

Here's what's on my kindle this week:

Improbable Reality by flawedamethyst - I like this author's work a LOT. If you read much asexual!Sherlock, you may have come across her Horse and Carriage verse, ( Read more... )

A better question might be, what's not on my kindle this week? Because I've been in court a lot, and anyone who is regularly in criminal court, especially in a busy jurisdiction, will tell you that it's mostly waiting around for things to happen and it's mostly very boring. There's usually ten minutes or so of discussing the cases you have ( Read more... )

Sometimes I forget to write this. SO SUE ME.

So here's what's on my kindle this week (in addition to snarky assholes, gynecology adventures, and 20th century tragedies):

Gone is my past by Cyerus - This fic is sort of sad but also very sweet- it should have been crack, but it's brilliant instead. The premise is that John is an army bomb ( Read more... )
