Recs!
Lately I really suck at a) reccing and b) posting, so I figured I'd take a nice lazy Thanksgiving day to remedy this situation. :) Happy Thanksgiving and/or Hanukkah to all who are celebrating!
First off, I've been incredibly remiss in pointing to a few things written for me. In HP, we have:
A Very Happy Birthday by torino10154 (Bill/Charlie/Draco, soft R)
*points to pairing* YUM, no? Delicious porny snippet in which I am incredibly jealous of Draco. ;-)
For White Collar:
Last Night by china_shop (Neal/Jones, R)
I love, love how this writer handles this pairing. The tension builds exquisitely through the opening dialogue, and leads to a bittersweet final scene.
And from the hockey RPF files:
untitled ficlet by puckling (Toews/Oshie, Kane/Toews, R)
I prompted "laughing during sex," which got me this delightfully funny ficlet. Worth a read if you enjoy bad sex or Tazer making himself look ridiculous. ;-)
Now for some art recs!
HP ART
The Gory, Spoilery Alphabetic Guide to Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince by naadi (various HP characters, G)
This is the definition of epic -- 26 fantastically detailed scenes from HBP. A must-see for any HP fan.
Raising Harry series Part I by caladan_dd (Lily/Snape, Remus/Tonks, Remus/Sirius, Harry, G)
Three separate scenarios involving Harry being raised by couples other than the Dursleys. I can't get over how beautifully this author draws Remus!
Lover by Anonymous (Harry/Draco, R/NWS)
Guhhhhh. This is beyond gorgeous.
I Got You by fanlay (Harry/Draco, NWS)
Stunning, especially for those of us who enjoy the "one partner naked, one partner clothed" dynamic.
At the End of All Our Games by Anonymous (Harry/Draco, PG-13)
This has a 1920's atmosphere to it that I absolutely love. Everyone looks really snazzy. :-D
Harry/Ginny and Ron/Hermione art by corkart (Harry/Ginny, Ron/Hermione, G)
I've missed this artist's work! Lovely collection of sketches.
The Story of a Certain Bed by trisstiss (Remus/Sirius, PG-13)
This traces Remus and Sirius's relationship through various scenes in a bed in the hospital ward. Some really nice scenes -- unexpectedly touching at times.
ST ART
Captain Kirk (Reboot) Original Traditional Media on Digital Print by kshepardart (Kirk, G)
Gorgeous colors/textures on this portrait of Kirk.
ADRIEN ENGLISH ART
The Dark Tide by catherinedair (Jake/Adrien, PG-13)
I know I've got a few fans of the Adrien English books on my flist -- this one is for you! It captures a key moment in book five. :) To those of you who haven't read the books, you MUST. Here's my rec.
ORIGINAL ART
The Pine Wind by beili and MYŌGADANI Mōra (OMC/OMC, WS)
Exquisite watercolors to tell a story that feels like a fairy tale.
Undertow by staringatsuns (OMC/OMC, WS, character death)
I always admire the way some artists can tell a whole story in images without any dialogue. This is sad and a little unsettling, but powerfully drawn.
Skies Below by Yuite Dio (OMC/OMC, WS, minor character death)
Vividly drawn art to tell the story of two people of color -- not just about their love story but also about their family lives.
If you enjoy something, consider leaving a little love for the writer/artist!
