Day 07 - A fic for a pairing with a lot of baggage.

Fandom Category: The Pretender
Pairing: Miss Parker/Jarod
Fic Title: Chasing Cars
Author: [livejournal.com profile] anr
Link: Here
Rating/Warning(s): PG
Genre: Angst, a tiny bit of romance
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: First of all, Miss Parker and Jarod have a lot of baggage to carry on their own, and they have a lot of baggage together, too. So really, perfect for this day. Second, when I re-read this fic today, I hoped that it hadn't been recced here before, and was both relieved and sad to find out that no, it wasn't. This fic is so perfect, [livejournal.com profile] anr captured the characters perfectly. And really, the show could have ended this way, and this would have been, like I said, perfect! Now, go read it!

Day 02 - A fic for your very first ship

Fandom Category: The Pretender
Pairing: Miss Parker/Jarod
Fic Title: You Run, I Chase
Author: phoenixnz
Link: here
Rating/Warning(s): Teen, no warnings given
Genre: Drama
WIP?: no

Why This Must Be Read: It starts out like an episode, and it just keeps getting better and more complicated. It's pretty much everything I loved about the show, and it explores the super-complex past and background of Jarod (no last name) and Miss Parker (no first name).


Fandom Category: Star Wars
Pairing: Mara Jade/Luke Skywalker
Fic Title: A Journey of Discovery Book One: Pendulum
Author: Jedi-2B
Link: here
Rating/Warning(s): Teen
Genre: Drama
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: An AU to beat all AU's. It was down to this or Drive You Mild, but I didn't have to choose between the two as that one has already been recced at this site. Slow development of characters and relationships, and the whole cast has something to do. Plus, just the first book in the series!

(technically, this is my third pairing rather than my first, but the first two don't really have any fanfic to speak of)

Fic Title: False Steps
Author: Loch Ness
Link: Part I, Part II, Part III
Rating/Warning(s): NC-17
Genre: Drama, Action, Romance
WIP? No
Special Rec: 51/100

Why This Must Be Read: Epically long and equally brilliant, False Steps is approximately 80,000 words of drama, action and romance. (Think of it as another movie we never got to see!) Set mid-season two, the story avoids some of the more crazy storylines and characterisations that came later in the show, and highlights everything that was so awesome in the early days: Jarod being perfectly Jarod, Parker being perfectly Parker, and the two of them together making a perfectly wonderful duo.

Fic Title: True
Author: Jill Kirby/ [livejournal.com profile] kirbyfest

Rating/Warning(s): M for Mature themes
Genre: AU, Angst, Romance
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read:

I have never recced here before but when I saw this challenge I just gotta to start. This fic is something I want to make into a teddy bear and take into bed. Jill Kirby is a fantastic author, everything she writes just forms into pictures in your head, a wonderful pictures.

I was never a big fan of AU´s but this fic changed it. A reality in which Thomas didnt die and Miss Parker had the "happy ending" except, it isnt anything she expected. Angsty and thrilling and so in character, my all times favorite.


She had everything she'd ever wanted, and she didn't know if she wanted it any more.

Fic Title: Falling

Rating/Warning(s): NC-17; Graphic sex
Genre: general romance, angst
WIP?: no

Why This Must Be Read: Great characterization. Very hot. And everything I want in a Ms. Parker/Jarod fic. I love the author's voice for Ms. Parker, because she's tough as nails and yet very emotional about certain things. And since this is set post-movie, she is also very very tired of the little game she and Jarod always play. I love the new dynamic the author sets-up. Go! Read, if you're a fan of this pairing!

Why This Must Be Read: I have read a total of, um, two Pretender fics in my time? But I'm pretty sure this is better than most out there, ever. Yes. [livejournal.com profile] aj's style of writing is amazing, and I just love her humor. And did I mention hot? 'Cause damn. That was hot. Great exploration of their dynamics and a wonderful end.
