HIGHLANDER
(HIGHLANDER) Sweet
Conflict: The Beginning
*WIP* (+ it's sequels) by Jessica L. Blackstone: I think the title
pretty much says it all. There's conflict between Methos and Duncan
that neither can quite grasp.
R: The sex was phenomenal. It
was different every time, and it's getting really hard to find that
kind of variety out there nowadays. I DO like the conflict, though. I
think that if I ever knew what the heck was REALLY going on between
those two, I'd be irritated the whole time I was reading this and I
would be yelling at the screen for them to get on with it.
Duncan/Methos *****
(HIGHLANDER) Matter and
Antimatter by Killashandra:
(June 25, 2007) There is no meant to be, just the way things end up....
R: I think that this is the
most reasonable way that I've seen Methos and Duncan get together. Two
Thumbs Up! Duncan/Methos *****
(HIGHLANDER) Swords
at Sunset: The Duke's Reward
by The Lady of Shalott: (Dec. 25, 2008) It's a historical piece where
Duncan is a young pre-immortal, and Methos, the queen's favorite.
Methos/Duncan *****
(HIGHLANDER) Misconceptions by Diana
Williams: (LOOONG time ago)
‘The shared Double Quickening in "Revelations" has an unexpected side
effect, one that changes the lives of Methos and Duncan MacLeod.’
R: I DON’T KNOW HOW I FORGOT TO
LIST THIS >_<“ This has to be one of the top 2 Mpregs written,
probably THE best. I know I fluctuate, but there you are. Duncan/Methos

there’s going to be sexing, but this is a story that eases you in to
the relationship between John and Matt becoming something more. The
characterizations in this story are fabulous. *****

Got Me What? by 14thDomino: This story was incredibly intense.
I think that's all that I can say until my blood travels back north.
Don/Danny ***
(CSI:NY) Speak Now,
Or Forever Hold Your Peace
by 14thDomino: Don's getting married, and neither
Danny nor Don are happy about it. I nearly peed myself this was so
funny. Danny and Don all the way! ***
(CSI:NY) Look Away by geekwriter: It didn't count, what he'd done
before.
R: OMFG! It is freakin' awesome! Woo! Woo! Danny/Flack ***
(CSI:MIAMI) White
Christmas by B.J. Jones:
(BIMTL) Speed takes Eric, the man he loves, to a place that means a lot

MISCELLANEOUS
MISCELLANEOUS
(TROY) Take
Me Home by Red Autumn: Paris is taken prisoner by
Achilles after a series of unfortunate events that I'm not quite sure
he didn't bring upon himself.
R: It's very powerful. Especially near the
end. It made me cry and then just stare off into space wondering about
life. I guess you could say that I was stunned. This is by far my
favorite Troy story. Achilles/Paris *****+
(STAR WARS) The
Irishman's Memorial by
Oncidium: Whoa...I had tears in my eyes as I was reading this. I kind
of had the idea in my head that this might be a death fic from the
title, but I had totally forgotten about that when I got caught up in
the story that was Odil and Kaelan. Damn, just thinking about it is
making my eyes water and my throat clench again. THEME: Robin Thicke
(The Evolution of Robin Thicke)- Lost Without You + My Angel
Qui-Gon/Obi-Wan *****+
(DRACULA) Child
of the Night by Scribe: Bram Stoker's Dracula told in a
way only Scribe can tell it.
R: I can't say how much I adore this
story. I was riveted to it for about 5 days straight. I couldn't look
away. I think that this is my favorite story with Keanu Reeves in it. I
became slightly obsessed with him after this. Dracula/Nicolae *****+
(ZETSUAI BRONZE) Close Your Eyes by Juxian Tang: Ghostly touches.
R: I really like
this story, even though I only have a very vague idea of who the
characters are. ***
(NIP/TUCK) Through
the Fire by Candy Apple:

(LAW & ORDER: SVU/OZ) Luck
of the Draw (part 1 and part 2) by Kikkimax: (August 20, 2008) Elliot goes
undercover in Em City.
R: I HIGHLY recommend this. Even if you've never
seen an episode in your life, you'll enjoy this with minimal background
info on the characters of Oz. Fr rls. Tobias/Chris, and another
surprise pairing. *****+
(FINAL FANTASY VIII) To
this One Night by Sukunami: (WBIMTL) A beautiful dancer
catches Prince Seifer's eye. He will do anything to have him.

gaudy_night: (Mar. 18, 2009) Commissioner Jim Gordon gets sold for ten
thousand dollars (for charity, of course) at the bachelor auction. Yet
the lady who purchased him never shows up and Jim ends up spending his

night's excursion resembles the beginning of a romantic comedy. (by
meishali) Bruce Wayne/Jim Gordon
R: Don’t fear! There IS sex in
this story, though a majority stays PG-13 and below. Grade: A
(TORCHWOOD) Get Love, Make
More, Try to Stay Alive by dsudis: (May 28, 2009) It all starts
when everyone else in Torchwood thinks that Ianto might be inhabited by
an by an alien species. What happens afterwards takes Ianto through
love, death, and time.
R:
I wasn’t in the best places to read this story. If you’re like me, a
long-time reader of slash, you can get into sort of a funk where
nothing holds any appeal, though in other circumstances, the story
would be beyond appealing. This story broke through to me even with
that obstacle, and I realize what a gem it truly is. Some MPREG. Jack/Ianto
Grade: A+
BUFFY/ANGEL

WARNING: Non-supernatural AU, mentions of rape
STARSKY &
HUTCH
(S&H) Total
Eclipse of the Heart by Flamingo: (Jan. 19, 2009) Things that were
already simmering boil over when someone drugs Starsky and Hutch,
taping the effects.
R: This story has the honor of
taking my Starsky & Hutch cherry. What a way to lose it…. Also, to
navigate the site, just keep pressing ‘NEXT’ until you hit the prologue
unless you want to read about the background of the making of the zine.
Starsky/Hutch Grade: A+
(S&H) Waterfall by Charlotte Frost: (March 25,
2009) Starsky and Hutch know that they love each other, share every
aspect of their lives like married couples do. After a series of events
brings the boys closer together, they decide to take the plunge and add

GUNDAM WING
(GW) = Gundam Wing
(GW) Endless
Summer by Clever Young Thief: All of the pilots are surfers.
It's a truly memorable story where Duo is a famous surfer with a
reputation for bringing death to each contest he enters, and Heero is a
stoic board-maker with a dark past.
R: There is a lot of thought
and detail put into this fic, so it's worth a read just for that, if
not anything else. I have to say that this somewhat light-hearted
surfer-guy fic, is my favorite GW story of all time (sorry, Kracken!
n_n“). There’s just nothing like it. I was obsessed with the Beach Boys
for a LONG time after this. THEME SONG: “Fly Me to the Moon” by Utada
Hikaru 1x2, 3x4, and 5xR. *****+
(GW) Wildflower by Becca Abbot: It's two years after Endless Waltz
and Duo Maxwell is in big trouble. But who should he fear the most? The
sadistic vice-lord into whose hands he's fallen or the man's most
deadly assassin, Heero Yuy? (Summary by Becca Abbot)
R: This story is so great! I
can’t believe that I haven’t read this sooner. I love that Wildflower
turned into Wilder. I would have never seen that coming! n_n” 1x2,
other parings *****

Interlude: The
Seduction of Chang WuFei
(GW) Sweet Darkness by Juxian Tang: Quatre is a prisoner in a sick,
twisted place and suffers pain and humiliation on daily basis. Will
things change with the appearance of his new cellmate - a mysterious
young man who is desperate to keep his secrets? (Summary by Juxian
Tang)
R: I think that this is by far
the best 3x4 story that I have ever read. And WuFei…I don’t think that
people give him enough credit for being such a complex character. 3x4,
5x13 ****
(GW) Vae Victis by Juxian Tang: 'The fate of the conquered is
always a sad one - and Treize gets to know about it better than many
others.' 13xVarious *****+
(GW) Covet by Kat: The first
part of this story was a bit shaky, but it all turned out very well in
the end. This story was very sensual and erotic in just the right way.
I love the little ‘thing’ that was going on in the background between
13x6 while 13x3. Yep, very nice indeed. ***
(GW) The
Crossing Paths Arc by Kracken: (18) ‘…Duo felt himself lowered,
yet cradled close. Heero had sat down, ignoring his own danger,
concerned only for Duo now. "Why do the people I care about keep
killing themselves?!" Heero exclaimed in anguish.’
R: I literally had to stop
myself and just say “wow” when Heero said this. That was strong.
Normally, when people say things like that, it’s funny to me, but this
had a huge impact. I freakin’ love Heero in this story! Even though he
became a little sappy near the end, I think that it fit him. After all,
no one is the perfect soldier. Even if they are, they never manage to
be for long. 1x2, 3x4, 5xS, 6x2 *****+
(GW) Te Amo by Akuma: Just when Heero finally allows
himself to feel, really feel something, for Duo, Duo falls in love with
Noin.
R: Okay, I was still a
green-behind-the-ears slash/yaoi reader when I read this, so it’s no
longer up to my standard in writing, but it’s my baby, so I’m reccin’
it, and there ain’t nothin’ you can do about it! Nyah. 2x1, 2xNoin,
3x4, others. *****+

R: This
