( Top TWENTY Special Requests! )

Amortentia, by excentrykemuse (PG-13)

[angelqueen04.livejournal.com]

Fandom Category: Harry Potter
Pairing: Romilda Vane/Harry Potter
Fic Title: Amortentia
Author: excentrykemuse
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5798243/1/
Rating/Warning(s): PG-13
Genre: AU, drama, romance
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: An AU of Half-Blood Prince, a single changed event sends the characters in a slightly different direction. Here we have two Gryffindors who would have done just as well, if nor more so, in Slytherin, had the circumstances of their lives been just a little different. Romilda's character is explored and fleshed out, rather than left aside and written off as a fangirl floozy. Harry shows just how cunning he can be, and keeps up with Romilda with ease. Other characters are also given a chance to grow, though still others are not treated as kindly as JKR treated them. The romance of the story is beautiful, built slowly and surely. An outstanding fic.

Special Rec: 1/31

Calvin and Hobbes, Two Susie/Calvin Recs

[izzyfics.livejournal.com]

Fandom Category: Calvin and Hobbes
Pairing: Susie/Calvin
Fic Title: Variations on a (Sordid) Pastime
Author: badass_normal
Link: here
Rating/Warning(s): Explicit sex and language (mention of underage)
Genre: Porn
Word Count: 1141
Why This Must Be Read: Calvin is completely diabolical and well, sexy, yet still retains that creative and endearing quality he had as a six-year-old. This is also about them growing older and the ending is so very sweet. :)

And a less-explicit Susie/Calvin story:
Fic Title: Every Day is a Reminder
Author: ishie
Link: here
Rating: Teen
Genre: Coming of Age, Romance

Why This Must Be Read: Once again, Susie and Calvin are growing up together, but this time it takes a while for them to finally get together. This is the journey and it's an entertaining and awesome one.
