    Summary

    "From the very beginning, from the first moment I may almost say, of my acquaintance with you, your manners, impressing me with the fullest belief of your arrogance, your conceit, and your selfish disdain of the feelings of others, were such as to form that ground-work of disapprobation, on which succeeding events have built so immoveable a dislike; and I had not known you a month before I felt that you were the last man in the world whom I could ever be prevailed on to marry."

    Pride and Prejudice meets the Apocalyptic Plague genre (see 1980s YA literature). If Pride and Prejudice and Zombies had been like it, it would have been good.

    Surprisingly less cracktastic than you would think in a story where Ben is a secret!psychic. The slow build of tension in this story is fantastic.

    Summary

    AU, completely ignoring the fact that The Faculty is sort of a science fiction/horror type film... Although perhaps three teenagers having this kind of sex life is a bit of science fiction.

    An Emily and a Hotch and a team BAU that I completely believe, even when they are on opposite sides.

  12. Rec 7

    Summary

    A story of missed connections, in which Peter doesn't know what to say, Neal doesn't seem to want to hear it, and Elizabethan translation proves vital.

    A crazy, implausible premise made to work rather beautifully.

  13. Rec 2

    Summary

    Rav Caldwell, the rosh yeshiva of Sha'arei ha-Kochavim, was standing with his arm around the new guy. Who was dressed more-or-less exactly like everyone else: black trousers, white shirt, though it seemed to Rodney that he might have left one more button undone at the top of the shirt than was strictly kosher here. Black velvet kippah pinned securely over a fairly obvious cowlick.

    Percy Weasley has been one of my favorite Harry Potter characters since PoA was first released in the States (the book, that is, not the movie) and my absolute favorite since GoF. I love fics that torture the characters that I adore.

    This story? A perfect example.

  15. Rec 1

    Summary

    When a rebellion is crushed on the outer-edges of the empire Draco finds among the captives an intriguing youth who joins the men and women of the harem. Can this quiet boy who refuses to admit his name be worthy of the role of Consort? Or is he as scheming as the other occupants of the harem?

    Summary

    A chance encounter with a stranger at the Roadhouse haunts Dean's dreams with a powerful attraction. (Total AU: Dean works with cars and is in a band. Castiel isn't an angel.)

    6 days ago

    Notes

    The classic take on vampires has always been a secret liking and this story brings all the cliche goodness to the fore while setting of the AU beautifully. Nothing's throwaway and all the players are there. It's worth a read and a hope that there will be more.

  17. Rec 3

    Summary

    It's the same old story: boy meets space alien, boy sleeps with space alien, boy's brother is mortified.

    Notes

    Who would have thought that as an alien is as an angel; one in the same without much difference between. This is an absolute joy to read.

    Good characterization that makes me believe in the story, even though it's not something I would have thought of.

    Notes

    Stories from some of the early Avengers comics, retooled and set in the 2000s. Mostly gen, with hints of het (Hank/Jan) and slash (Steve/Tony). Awesome series, and it's a perfect introduction to the characters if you're not that familiar with the Marvel Universe.
