Miscellaneous Fic Recs


Title: Moving On
Author: astolat
Summary: [Smallville] What you do when there are no more worlds to conquer.
Notes: Future!fic in which Lex Luthor conquers the galaxy. Funny as hell. Plus check out all of the other fic by this author, as it's sparklingly good.

Title: Dead Soldiers: An Oral History of the End Times
Author: fryadvocate
Summary: [Supernatural] Although much has been written about the sociological and theological importance of the "End Times War", there has been much less written about the individuals directly involved. Using interviews with primary sources, this paper seeks to examine how Dean and Sam Winchester, two criminals with a history of violence and petty theft, became commonly known as a prophet of the Lord and the Anti-Christ.
Notes: Really neat format for a fic. Really really neat.

Title: Dust in the Wind
Author: lyra_wing
Summary: [Supernatural] Future fic. Erm. Hard to explain. This is a crossover with American Gods, but you don't need to read that to understand what's going on.
Notes: More a fusion than a crossover, and absolutely lovely.

Title: Something Primal
Author: Luchia13
Summary: [Supernatural] Castiel turns himself into a dinosaur to save the Winchesters from an escaped zoo of demonic animals and save a seal (66, not an animal) in the process. And then things get weird.
Notes: It's not-crack crack, and it is awesome.

Title: A Woman
Author: familiardevil
Summary: [Supernatural] What if God was one of us? Spoilers up to Sympathy for the Devil.
Notes: This fic. It is hilarious.

Title: Because I Could Not Stop for Death
Author: Refur
Summary: [Supernatural] Sam and Dean are dead. Except they're kind of not.
Notes: Utterly hilarious fourth-wall-tapping fun.

Title: The incestuous courtship of the antichrist's bride
Author: fleshflutter
Summary: [Supernatural] Sam is trying to become the Antichrist in order to save the world. He has a small army of angels and demons, he has an adoring cult, he has a work of prophecy by Jack Kerouac, and he has Dean. Things are going pretty well until he accidentally signs Dean up as his Beloved Consort, a role that requires sex with the Antichrist on an altar. And that's when things stop going pretty well. Also, the soundtrack to the Apocalypse sucks.
Notes: Sam/Dean, NC-17, 48,000 words, crack-horror. Completely fucking amazing and hilarious.

Title: Five Magical Love Stories
Author: qwerty
Summary: [Merlin] The trouble with Merlin is not that he is utterly useless as a servant, being suicidally feckless with regards to propriety in any form and selectively competent, mostly when unobserved, in which case he becomes improbably - one might say even say magically - capable. This is a minor, easily overlooked failing. Comparatively speaking. The real trouble is how, if there is a dangerous magical creature within seven leagues, if Merlin doesn't run into them, they come to him.
Notes: Exceedingly silly.

Title: Course of Study
Author: penknife
Summary: [PotC] There's a lot to learn on the way to Singapore about being a pirate.

Notes: A fusion. Lengthy, well-characterized action-adventure.

Title: Of Love and Bunnies
Author: CrazyGirl47
Summary: [Power Rangers] Set just after Dino Thunder. When Angel Grove announces another Power Rangers Day, Tommy brings the Dino Rangers to Angel Grove for a reunion with the original team… including Kimberly. Tommy/Kim, Jason/Trini, Kira/Trent.
Notes: Abso-friggin-lutely hilarious, and incredibly long as well.

Title: Gormenghast Fanfiction
Author: Hobbity
Notes: Oneshots and a short chaptered series. Steerpike/Fuchsia, based on the BBC miniseries.

Title: Alternative Gormenghast I and II
Author: G.M. Baxter

Title: Heritage
Author: Elizabeth Culmer
Summary: [Gormenghast] Nothing comes from nothing: a story of the once proud Steerpike family and their downfall, until the only things left are memory and vengeance.

Title: The Care and Feeding of Hobbits
Author: Baylor

Notes: Sweet and friendly and just nice. I adore Mark and Joanne.

Title: Every Day Is a Reminder

Title: Crossbones and Destiny
