Day 27 - A pre-series fic.

Fandom Category: The West Wing
Pairing: CJ Cregg/Danny Concannon
Fic Title: Passing Afternoon
Author:

lieueitak
Link: Here
Rating/Warning(s): PG
Genre: Pre-series, romance
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: When I saw today's theme, I thought of CJ/Danny because this is one of those pairings who have a history before the show began. They met on the campaign trail, when this fic is set. It's a beautiful fic that shows their beginning, and how Danny is already smitten with CJ. They're in-character and the fic is perfectly done.

Day 26 - A future fic.

Fandom Category: Percy Jackson and the Olympians
Pairing: Thalia Grace/Luke Castellan
Fic Title: The Three Lives of Luke Castellan
Author:

greenconverses
Link: The Three Lives of Luke Castellan
Rating/Warning(s): PG-13. Character deaths.
Genre: Angst/Romance
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: Thalia Grace encounters Luke Castellan's soul trice over five hundred years. She thinks it's a conspiracy, but, as they say, death cannot stop true love. All it can do is delay it a little while.

You know it's a futurefic when it crosses five hundred years. In the books Thalia and Luke never get any closure. Fortunately, this story remedies that, with plenty of great character work and a brilliant plot twist along the way.

Day 26 - A future fic.

Fandom Category: Once upon a Time
Pairing: Emma Swan/August Booth
Fic Title: Chasing Cars
Author: snarkysweetness
Link: Here
Rating/Warning(s): PG-13
Genre: Romance, family
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: Emma/August is one of the most beautiful pairings in OuaT, and there are a lot of future fics for the. This is just one. This is a really cute fic that shows family moments that can really be in their future if... ;)

Day 25 - A fic where a canon character is paired with an original character.

Fandom Category: Will of the Empress
Pairing: Trisana Chandler/OC
Fic Title: Clear Skies
Author: KrisEleven
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3188952/1/Clear-Skies
Rating/Warning(s): T.
Genre: General
WIP?: No. Completed MC.

Why This Must Be Read: Willing to try anything to be normal, Tris hides her powers and her name to go to Lightsbridge. But of course the life she's chosen is not without its own perils... Will she be able to survive when her new life demands she give up everything she once was?

During Will of the Empress, Tris reveals to the rest of the Circle that she wants to attend Lightsbridge. This has spawned many fics based on the idea, and in my opinion, this is easily the best. The cast of characters are well developed enough you love them even as you want to shake some sense into them, the plot is engrossing, the character development on everyones' parts is very well done, and, of course, the cameos from the rest of the Circle gives it a nice touch. Tris herself is just perfect, in between her cynical view of the world, her wisdom from experience, and her insecurities.

Day 25 - A fic where a canon character is paired with an original character.

Fandom Category: Sherlock BBC
Pairing: OC/John Watson
Fic Title: The More Things Change
Author: Goldenbuttons
Link: Here
Rating/Warning(s): PG-13, character death
Genre: Angst, romance, drama
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: I don't read that kind of fic usually, but since I wanted to rec for today too, I found this one. This is a beautiful fic that is set post 'The Reichenbach Fall' and it deals with Watson's reaction to what happened in the episode. The OC is great, I love her quite a lot, and the relationship is really believable. You'll need tissues here and there, because this is not a happy fic at times.

Day 24 - A crossover pairing fic.

Fandom Category: Doctor Who/Firefly
Pairing: Rose Tyler/Malcolm Reynolds
Fic Title: Passing the Years Among the Stars
Author:

jessicaqueen
Link: http://jessicaqueen.livejournal.com/185549.html
Rating/Warning(s): PG-13. Implied character deaths.
Genre: Drama
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: "Me? I’ve always been more about the journey. She’s a ship that flies and she has a captain who clearly loves her enough to keep her that way. The rest is just dressin’."

Firely and Doctor Who is a relatively common crossover choice. This pairing isn't, but this story makes me ache for what could be. Set after Journey's End and Serenity (the film), Rose finds herself on Serenity, and meets the captain. It's wonderfully intriguing to see two damaged souls as they get to know each other.

Day 24 - A crossover pairing fic.

Fandom Category: Castle/Sanctuary
Pairing: Martha Rodgers/James Watson
Fic Title: Everyone is slightly abnormal
Author:

kaitlia777
Link: Part One | Part Two
Rating/Warning(s): R, language
Genre: Angst
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: It's hard for me to ship two people who have never met, but Martha/James just work. Really, when you think about it, it just fits, and it would explain a few things from the Castle verse. This fic is so well written, the characters are spot on, and once you start reading it, you just can't stop. And with this, I've officially recced the only two Martha/James fics out there. There should be more. ;)

Day 23 - A pairing where one character is paired in multiple ships.

Fandom Category: Naruto
Pairing: Haruno Sakura/Rock Lee, Haruno Sakura/Nara Shikamaru, Haruno Sakura/Uchiha Sasuke, Haruno Sakura/Uzumaki Naruto, Haruno Sakura/Inuzuka Kiba, Haruno Sakura/Hyuuga Neji
Fic Title: Cataclysmic
Author: Annie Sparklecakes /

practiqueal
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7014521/1/Cataclysmic
Rating/Warning(s): T. Character deaths.
Genre: Drama
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: Five boys Haruno Sakura kissed, and the one she never would.

This story deals gracefully with six very different dynamics Sakura has, or could potentially have, without falling into the trap of comparing them against each other. My absolute favourite thing is the angle it takes with Sakura. Here, Sakura's life is a tragedy, and as confusing and jagged and broken as you would expect from a ninja, and the writing, in all its starkness, is definitely strong enough to support the themes.

Day 23 - A pairing where one character is paired in multiple ships.

Fandom Category: Stargate SG1
Pairing: Sha're/Daniel Jackson, Samantha Carter/Daniel Jackson, Janet Fraiser/Daniel Jackson, Sarah Gardner/Daniel Jackson, Vala Mal Doran/Daniel Jackson
Fic Title: Five Women Daniel Jackson Didn't Date (But Should Have)
Author:

jedibuttercup
Link: Here
Rating/Warning(s): PG, canonical character deaths
Genre: Five things, angst
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: Daniel is one of a few characters that I really multi-ship. Out of all the pairings listed above, only Sam/Daniel is a big no-no for me. But Daniel had chemistry (and sometimes something more) with all these women, and

jedibuttercup transcribed that perfectly in this fic. Also, you do need tissues for part 1 and 3, really.

Mods, can I have tags for Sha're/Daniel Jackson and Sarah Gardner/Daniel Jackson, please?? ;)

Day 22 - A canon pairing fic.

Fandom Category: Castle
Pairing: Kate Beckett/Rick Castle
Fic Title: There your heart will be also
Author:

airbefore &

sparkles_mouse
Link: Here
Rating/Warning(s): PG
Genre: Romance
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: This fic is beautifully written, and I have to say that I love the idea of Castle leading Kate on a scavenger hunt. For this only, it's completely in-character (because Castle can do that of course). It's funny, it's romantic, and I have to warn you that you'll tissues at one point. I can really see something like this happening in the show. The link is to part one, but there are links to other parts at the bottom of each chapter. ;)

Day 22 - A canon pairing fic

Fandom Category: Lucifer
Pairing: Mazikeen/Lucifer Morningstar
Fic Title: Break So Hard
Author: scy
Link: http://archiveofourown.org/works/42640
Rating/Warning(s): G. Spoilers through issue #8.
Genre: Hurt/Comfort
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: "-Mazikeen may wake and realize what you've done to her." Lucifer, issue # 8

Mazikeen isn't a character we often see vulnerable. Even when she's defeated physically, that iron core is still there. But this story does a great job of exploring Mazikeen when she breaks down, and Lucifer shows the side of him that we never get to see in the comics, except when it comes to her.

Day 14 - A fic for an Old School Fandom from back in the day.

Fandom Category: Alias
Pairing: Sydney Bristow/Julian Sark
Fic Title: The Cities arc
Author:

auburnnothenna/auburn
Link: Belfast
Byzantium: Iterations of Burn
Boston: Running to Stand Still
Brownsville
Rating/Warning(s): M/R. Warnings for violence, death, and attempted suicide.
Genre: Drama, very AU
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: This series leaves me absolutely breathless and is one of my all-time favorite Syd/Sark stories. The characterization is fantastic--the author is unflinching in her portrayal of these ruthless, complex, and morally gray super spies. Highly recommended.

Day 21 - A rare pairing fic.

If you're wondering why you've only heard of half these names, it's because this post was originally meant for Canon Ship day, and I had decided to do a post on quasi-canon pairings.

Day 21 - A rare pairing fic.

Fandom Category: Doctor Who
Pairing: River Song/Duplicate Tenth Doctor
Fic Title: River in Pete's World
Author:

honeynoir
Link: Here
Rating/Warning(s): PG-13
Genre: Angst
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: For some reasons, as in it's commonly accepted that the Duplicate Tenth Doctor, aka Ten II, aka Handy, is happy in the parallel world with Rose. Plus, River Song just can't exist in Pete's World if this Doctor never had Amy and Rory on the TARDIS. So yeah, it's a really rare pairing, but I love the few fics there is, including this whole series. I love the angst in there because the only time Ten II saw River, she died, and he doesn't have the faintest idea who she is. And River can't just tell him and it's hurting her too because he's not her Doctor. Really beautiful series!

Mods, should it be tagged with River Song/The Doctor, or with a new River Song/Duplicate Tenth Doctor tag?

Day 20 - A fluffy fic.

Fandom Category: Lie to Me
Pairing: Gillian Foster/Cal Lightman
Fic Title: On My Way To You
Author: jenron12
Link: Here
Rating/Warning(s): NC-17, sexual situations
Genre: Romance, friendship
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: After the series finale, I think we all wanted to read/write a fluffy sequel, especially given the last scene. This is one of those. This answers Emily's last question, "What are you waiting for?". And I love the portrayal of Gillian, Cal and Emily in this fic. It's really great!

lady-with-cats.livejournal.com

All of these recs could be under multiple days, but I've tried to match each one to a paticular day.

Day 04 - A fic that demonstrates how a pairing with little canon romantic chemistry/interaction can totally work.

Fandom Category: Game of Thrones/A Song of Ice and Fire series.
Pairing: Myrcella Baratheon/Robb Stark, Arya Stark/Edric Dayne, Margaery Tyrell/Renly Baratheon, Loras Tyrell/Renly Baratheon, Sansa Stark/Willas Tyrell [many more, including some that are spoilery at the link]
Fic Title: Acts of Treason
Author: SecondStarOnTheLeft
Link: here
Rating/Warning(s): Mature, character death, sex, spoilers for the novels
Genre: AU, romance/adventure, war
WIP?: No.

Summary: A rebellion in ten acts, beginning and ending in Winterfell. Or, How Myrcella proved herself a Baratheon, regardless of her blood.

Why This Must Be Read: The premise of this fic is that Myrcella is betrothed to Robb Stark at the beginning of the first novel, and how this spirals out and changes things. But I think the biggest leap is giving Mrycella her spot in the limelight. We don't know terribly much about her in the canon, and she has maybe one chance to meet Rob. But she is the daughter of Cersei and Robert (in name at least), and it really shows in this fic. The author gives her a hugely stubborn will, and a great deal of perception. This could just as easily have been the "epic" fic rec, but what really sells this story is the way the romance between Mrycella and Robb is strung out from puppy love to true partnership. I do warn you, that like the books, some things will utterly break your heart. But it's so, so worth it.

Also I picked it for this catagory because of the sheer number of ships for characters that haven't even canonically met.

( four more pre-canon/AU recs )

Mods: Could I request Elia Martell/Rhaeger Targaryen, Lyanna Stark/Rhaeger Targaryen, Sansa Stark/Willas Tyrell, Ashara Dayne/Ned Stark and Daenerys Targaryen/Jon Snow? The rest are fairly minor one-off ships.

Day 20 - A fluffy fic

Fandom Category: Doctor Who
Pairing: Rose Tyler/The Doctor
Fic Title: And That's It, Then
Author:

andsheloves
Link: http://hipteapots.livejournal.com/17726.html
Rating/Warning(s): PG.
Genre: Fluff
WIP?: No.

Why This Must Be Read: "Well, let's get married, then!"

It's nine super-short, silly ways the Doctor might propose to Rose, and it's one of the most adorable things ever -- without making it overly gushy or cheesy. For someone like me who is primarily a doomed!shipper with these two (and would therefore usually steer away from weddings, proposals and the like), it hits all the right notes.
