one big recs post :D
I decided I wasn't going to describe these, just list them, but then I realized I actually wanted to describe them :))
House, MD
Heart of Oak - alibi_factory - Chase, Chase/House, House/Wilson
alibi_factory writes the best Chase I've ever read. I love his character; I think they've begun to abuse him on the show. I love his angry, tense, confused, frustrated side. I love his POV on House, on Wilson, on all of it. I also like the glimpse of twisted-Wilson - I love the guy, but nobody on this show is healthy, and it's so good to be reminded of that. And then the style - I'm speechless, really, since I just re-read it; all I can say is Oh Man I Love the Style.
Traveler - alibi_factory - House, House/Chase
...
This one leaves me speechless. That's really all I can say. I love the beginning. I love the middle. I love the end. Sparse and ethereal but very strong ideas - obviously I don't know what I'm saying, but that's it. Like I said, speechless, right? Agh. Amazing.
Side Effects - isagel - House/Wilson, NC-17
Really great Porn With A Plot and Character, Too. The best kind, really! Realistic, too. House's bum leg does not disappear, people. His drugs are not magic pills.
Star Wars
Impossible - hallelujah - Anakin/Obi-Wan
This is not a rec, actually; it's just for posterity. I read this fic and it struck me in all sorts of weird ways - finding significance in something totally insignificant, noticing details that were inadvertent, analysing the dynamic of their relationship and this interpretation of their characters (Obi-Wan is always such an interpretation, since he's so archetypal.) Parts of it are not very good. But there are some strangely striking bits.
As I Lay Me Down - tartanshell - Luke, Ben Kenobi
Genfic. I hardly ever read it, but this came recced, and man, is it so very lovely and sad. Poignant. *sigh*
Real-Person Slash
The Color of Wheat (series) - ethrosdemon, and I think hackthis too? - Hayden Christiansen/Ewan McGregor, probably NC-17 in some parts
IT HAS THE BEST VIGGO MORTENSEN I'VE EVER READ ALL OVER IT. It has me cracking up all the time and hyperventilating and squeeing and flailing over the sheer joy of it. I love this sort of RPS because you never know just who is going to show up (and believe me, there are the BEST cameos etc in here, omg). Plus, you know, those two write amazingly amazing fic on their own. It's only going to be squared if they're collaborating. And that goes out to a quadrilateral of amazingness, or something.
untitled - wildanjali - Lewis/Clark
Historical RPS!!! YOU CAN'T SAY NO! :DDDD It's so cuuuute!
Harry Potter
Untitled 03 - losselen - Remus/Sirius
You already knew I liked this one, since I did fanart :)) The images just caught me, so perfectly, which is evident since I felt compelled to do fanart. There are pictures, snapshots, which is probably intended looking at the summary. And there's that twist in looking at things - "the sound from her cigarette all wrong," "the grave building gave away," "reverence sliding from the hollows of their mouths." Which are all reasons I love all her writing, really.
Shoebox Project - Part 23 - ladyjaida, dorkorific - Sirius/Remus
Oh, yeah. The part we'd all been waiting for. And also sort of dreading, because it meant the end of amazing UST. But yeah. The love! Oh, man. This one also for posterity.
ETA: You have no idea how much I'm craving Dead Poets Society right now. Here's a clue: SO INCREDIBLY MUCH OMFG. O__O
ETA II: It's 12:46 AM and I've totally defeated the purpose of Fall-Back (which is to get to bed at a sane time and wake up, possibly earlier than normal, feeling totally refreshed and ready to tackle the world.) I guess I will just have to rely on the fact that, hey, tomorrow I'll be left alone until about noon or maybe even later! yay. Plus, I finished my History homework.
