Who wants people to know she doesn't save her links much. She has set goals for herself, though, so watch this space.
LOTR FPS
Frodo/Sam, Merry/Pippin
Field of Cormallen - Elenya
This story becomes harder and harder to find every time I go looking
for it. And as it is, I'm not too crazy about the formatting of the site
I've linked to. But it's really a very sweet, beautiful, loving story
of post-quest Frodo and Sam. All of the heart, less of the angst you
usually find. Good stuff.
Moving Without Speaking - Kit Fox
I really dearly love this story. It's like a warm mug of hot chocolate,
just perfectly warm and sweet but never too much. This is a Merry and
Pippin with hints of Frodo/Sam and it's well-paced, funny, and has a
good sex scene. This is an author I wish wrote more.
Cabbages and Kings - Madelyn Scott
Much rec'ed and the reason isn't hard to guess. Something about
Pippin's frustrated impatience, really adorable. And it reminds me why
Merry/Pippn is what you turn to after reading too many Frodo/Sam's. So
exuberant and pleasant after a lot of love tinged with angst. ;) Check out
Kiss Me, as well.
Let Evening Come - Frayach
I cannot chat this fic up enough. It's really, really something. The
only downside is how woefully incomplete it is. Frodo and Sam are
beautifully realized, but their arc has only just begun and seems to have
stalled. Hopefully, the writer will do more with this.
Heat Wave - Teasel
A gorgeous bit of work. Comprehensive. In canon. Pulls no punches with
Tolkein's style but manages to be an engaging read. Is not bogged down
like so many other pre-quest fics. Really a good example of what I like
in Frodo/Sam fiction.
Code of the Brandybucks - Lobelia Sackville Baggins
An addictive serial. Full of humor, and family intrigue. Terrible hot
as well. A quirky, funny and enjoyable fic from a writer that's should
also be read for her more serious works.
LOTR RPS
Sean/Elijah
Timor Combat Mortis Me - mirabile_dictu
One of the fics that sold me on Seanlijah. A beautiful, beautiful fic.
The long time line she gives their relationship to bloom is really
effective and believable. Prose is flawless.
Bricolage -- mirable_dictu
A brilliant and sad Sean fic. Delves deep into the more melancholy and
troubled parts of his character. Just amazing. But also really sad. A
must-read, but have something happy close by.
To the Flame - Princess
A passion boiling over fic that comes across as very effortless.
Wonderfully sexy and emotional. A good show from a very prolific writer.
Blue - Em
Em is my OTP soulmate. This gives me everything I love, vivid and
original AU setting, insurmountable odds, Seanlijah, great supporting
cast. Just a wonderful fic.
Burn - Cimorene
Must give credit where credit is due. This fic started it all and man.
Thank god it did.
ERIC BANA/ORLANDO BLOOM FPS + RPS
A Scratch - aleathiel
This is Troy Slash, but more to the point it's Iliad slash.
Paris/Hector, though not explicit. The first incest pairing I've ever enjoyed...
and it makes more sense when you remember that they were separated at
birth, and Paris came back into Troy an adult.
No Aphrodite - aleathiel
Extra fun because this is not only Paris/Hector but Eric Bana/Orlando
Bloom. In fact, the Eric/Orlando parts are really something, and a lot
better than the Paris/Hector parts. Anyway. Read it. Dammit.
A Myth of Brothers -- blackkoda
Okay, this thing about about this fandom is that it's new and sort of
not always great, but sometimes good. This story is like that. Good, but
not always great. The final sex scene leaves realism to be desired, but
the first half is VERY good. Eric/Orlando.
RANDOM FANDOM
Rum, Sodomy, and the Brand and Any Port - Barb G.
Pirates of the Carribean. Jack/Will.
I love Barb G and I love this fic, although I wish there was a third
part that was a bit more clear on Jack's feelings on Will. Either way,
though, tasty fic, good characterizations, awesome plot. Good, good,
good. This was a brief obsession but I'm glad I came across this fic before
it went.
Be Brave Parts One and Two - Princess
The Faculty. Casey/Zeke.
Jesus but this is hot. The Faculty Universe is nice enough, but really
I just want Casey and Zeke to have sex. Not to you know... save the
world or angst about having saved the world. Just... make them interesting
and make them do it. This does just that.
An Exercise in Choice - Lelise
Toy Soldiers. Billy/Joey.
Lelise is my go-to girl for Sean FPS. Read this fic, then read her
Jeremiah fics. And then her Sean RPS. She's just really something. Very,
very adept with character and prose. She'll be your go-to Sean girl soon,
just wait.
