Bookmarker's Notes
Excellent action plot, great balance of characters, lots of BAMFery. Natasha is amazing, there is never a fic that isn't improved by making fun of Anderson Cooper, and if you have a competence kink, you should be all over this one.Right after they check into the hotel, as they cross the lobby to the elevator, Clint’s phone rings. He pulls it from his pocket as he shifts his duffel to his other arm, and he bites back a grin when he sees it’s Phil. “Hey,” he answers, giving Kuring a headshake to show it’s nothing important.
“Kuring’s gone rogue,” Phil greets him. “Don’t get on that elevator.”
Clint hums as though Phil hasn’t just told him the last thing he needs to hear in a crowded lobby of a hotel filled with tourists. “Not sure what the stock numbers are,” he replies, his way of telling Phil he’s not certain he can get away.
“Don’t get on that elevator,” Phil repeats. “I don’t care if you have to take off at a sprint and push down a small child. Get the hell out.”

Getting a flat together was one thing. Getting a puppy was quite another.

This is, oh my god, so adorable. Domestic fluff with puppy! What else could one possibly want?It started out as a matter of convenience.
"C'mon," said Bradley, "There isn't anything strange about being roommates. Those Supernatural blokes have a place together, and there isn't anything off about them. It'd be good to have somewhere to stay while we're filming."
"Alright," Colin said. "A flat. In Wales. You want to share a flat in Wales."
Bradley nodded very slowly, as though he thought Colin was being the strange one.
As this was clearly one of those Bradley James arguments that he wasn't destined to win, Colin conceded gracefully. "Have you found a place, yet?"
As it turned out, he had.

Matt's filming "White Collar" and "The Normal Heart" at the same time and runs himself ragged. Thank goodness for caring co-workers and a great husband.

Bookmarker's Notes
This fic dubconned me into having feelings. I thought it was just going to be a nice long hurt/comfort fic with sex and if I was very lucky no egregious New York City geography errors. And then there were feelings about the AIDS epidemic and artistic commitment and family of choice and oh man here come the feelings again.Where the hell was the car? A car with driver, and even more important: air-conditioning. Simon had insisted on it. Simon insisting was nice; Matt let his thoughts drift to his amazing husband and how much he was missing Simon right now. As much as he loved NYC—and he surely did—he loved his husband and their children more and the months spent on opposite ends of the country kind of added to the misery that was NYC in the summer.
Especially this summer. Filming both White Collar and The Normal Heart at the same time was more difficult than he’d expected, or would admit out loud. Having to switch out of Felix mode in order to become Neal or vice-versa took an almost physical effort. They were such different characters: one happy-go-lucky conman and one terrified man dying from a mysterious disease. The emotional toil of being Felix was taking a lot out of him.

This is the actual cutest, and one of the few fics I loved from SGA that do not give me the crawling heebie-jeebies of shame when I admit I read them. It's a harlequin with a real sense of pacing, a really well-handled child character, and some lovely moments of character study."Do you ever think about getting married? Starting a family?"
John opened his mouth to give the reflexive, right answer--sure I have, just waiting to meet the right girl, I love kids--and then he cocked his head and studied Jeannie McKay for a moment. "No," he finally said, "No kids. Don't think I'll ever get married, either."
"Hm." Jeannie said again. She finished her drink, pulled a few bills from her pocket and tossed them on the table. "Walk with me?"

This series has an awesome OFC, lots of shenanigans, and plenty of local color. Thumbs up!"Battling the insurance company actually is my problem."
"You've been here less than a month; please tell me you haven't needed their services yet." The paperwork for the field teams' healthcare was bad enough. If the lawyers started needing emergency services in the first month of employment, they'd have to start seriously looking at the training system. The database spat out an answer: PhD student, European history, all but dissertation.
"Sorry, I wasn't clear. Battling the insurance company that's denying you coverage for an incident that took place during the course of your job on your behalf is, actually, my problem. It sounds like breach of contract to me. Since Loki stabbed you while you were on duty, that makes this one legal's. I'll send up a HIPAA release and start working on it."
