3 Hunger Games fics, multiple pairings

[irony-rocks.livejournal.com]

Fandom Category: Hunger Games
Pairing: Annie Cresta/Finnick Odair
Fic Title: Treading Water
Author: sabaceanbabe
Link: http://archiveofourown.org/works/316078/chapters/507670
Rating/Warning(s): Mature. Warnings for implied self-harm, purposeful self-harm, suicide, past and present situations of dubious consent, forced drug use, intentional drug use, references to past rape, and something that could maybe be considered domestic violence (between a main character and a minor character).
Genre: Drama, Epic.
WIP?: yes

Why This Must Be Read: They don't tell you when you go into the arena that the lucky ones are those who die. This story gives a strong sense of characterization to both main characters, as well as their deep connection to one another. I love how the language flows, and the story really does a fantastic job of flushing out the story of Annie and Finnick. It's long, at over a 110k already, and it's still a WIP but if you're a fan of this pairing, give it a go!

Fandom Category: Hunger Games
Pairing: gale hawthorne/katniss everdeen,
Fic Title: they never were
Author: hariboo_smirks
Link: http://hariboo-smirks.livejournal.com/299073.html
Rating/Warning(s): R, spoilers up til Mockingjay
Genre: Five things fic
WIP?: no

Why This Must Be Read: Five things that almost happened to Gale and Katniss, because according to the odds they could have happened. I love the AUs, and honestly it was only a twisted fate that made it so these two didn't have a life together. They're tragic and the possibilities of them are all the more painful. Lovely read.

( One more fic. Peeta/Katniss. )

in the service of liars and killers, by gdgdbaby (teen)

Link: http://archiveofourown.org/works/405325
Rating/Warning(s): teen. spoilers for the movie, obvs.

Why This Must Be Read: A lovely build up to their partnership, which explores their origin and how they fell into the effortless rhythm they have. Fabulous voices, and some laugh out loud moments and lines.

Anger Managment by Breeeauna (M)

[lady-leia-solo.livejournal.com]

Fandom Category: The Vampire Diaries (TV verse)
Pairing: Bonnie Bennett/Damon Salvatore
Fic Title: Anger Management
Author: Breeeauna at Fanfiction.net
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7576468/1/Anger_Management
Rating/Warning(s): M/ There's a lot of sex
Genre: Romance/Humor
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: This was my first Bamon fic and I instantly loved it. Bonnie has been having trouble controlling her magic after certain events in her life and Damon of all people decides to help. It's 50,000 words, which is a lot more than I usually read (Drabbles FTW), but it honestly didn't feel like it. I finished it in a few hours. It sucks you in!

First time posting, hope I did everything right ^___^

Five Haven/Nathan Wuornos and Audrey Parker recs

[effie214.livejournal.com]

for may special requests

Fandom category: Haven
Pairing: Audrey Parker/Nathan Wuornos
Fic Title: We Could Leave This Town and Run Forever
Author: gagewhitney
Link: here
Rating: PG-13
Genre: Romance with a little adventure (could be read as slight AU) thrown in for good measure
WIP: No

Why this must be read:  It is a rare story indeed that not only challenges my perception of the characters and their potential actions but also manages to make a scenario I previously thought implausible seem like the only logical scenario. But this story, with Audrey and Nathan deciding to flee Haven in an attempt to save both the town they love and each other, is just so well-written and so very, very them that I immediately cast all my doubts aside and embraced it. It's a subtle but telling tale of what true sacrifice is, and it's about as perfect a story as I can think of.

( four more recs under the cut )

Haven, 5 recs, Audrey Parker/Nathan Wuornos

[lone-pyramid.livejournal.com]

(I know that effie214 just posted about this pairing, but really, I'm trying to drag as many people into this fandom as possible and what better way of doing that than by reccing awesome fic?)

1. Fandom Category: Haven
Pairing: Audrey Parker/Nathan Wuornos
Fic Title: You've Got a Face With a View
Author: seren_ccd
Link: http://seren-ccd.livejournal.com/96819.html
Rating/Warning(s): PG-13
Genre: humour, UST
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: Last summer, once I'd been drawn wholeheartedly into Haven and ended up watching fourteen episodes in two days, I went on a mad Audrey/Nathan fic search. There wasn't much at the time, but this fic was out there to be read and so very, very good. Set in S1, Audrey's decided it's time to move out of the B&B and is on the search for a place to live. The real gems in this story are the secondary characters, who are bang-on and wonderfully quirky. Audrey and Nathan's characterizations are perfect too. Mostly gen but definitely worth the read.

Remind Me Where the Light is (Lexie, Lexie/Mark; PG-13)

[earnmysong.livejournal.com]

Fandom Category: Grey's Anatomy
Pairing: Lexie Grey/Mark Sloan
Fic Title: Remind Me Where the Light is
Author: abvj
Link: HERE
Rating/Warning(s): PG-13
Genre: Angst, Hurt/Comfort, Character Study
WIP?: No
Why This Must Be Read: This is a wonderful look at Lexie, particularly through the lens of her mother's death. It highlights most of her important relationships and Mark features quite a bit. The writing is superb and the characterization is spot-on.

Seven Scarecrow & Mrs. King recs

[j-guda.livejournal.com]

I needed something fun and sweet this week. That turned out to be Scarecrow and Mrs. King.

Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/441726/1/Operation_Rimrunner
Rating/Warning(s): T, some violence
Genre: Action Adventure, Drama, Romance
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: When Lee is sent overseas on a routine mission, Amanda is paired with a dashing British agent and gets to prove she can be competent and badass and awesome, even without her partner. Meanwhile, without Amanda, Lee starts to realize his old globe hopping lifestyle isn't quite as great as he used to think it was.
