Jeff and Rusty had once been best friends. Of course, Jeff was human then.

Everything Parhelion writes is wonderful, and this is no exception. And no one has a better grasp of period dialect and how to make it work.

A story where Julie is more than just an annoying impediment to House and Wilson’s love.

The hell of it is, House actually likes Julie, at least as much as he likes anybody, which is to say that he finds her tolerable. She isn’t completely stupid, and she isn’t too dramatic, and she’s even decent enough company, once she’s no longer his physical therapist and he doesn’t feel compelled to actively hate her anymore. She isn’t terribly interesting, but she has pretty good taste in music.

He likes Wilson, too, which is an understatement of the absolutely obvious, and he prefers not to think too much about that.

If Severus can’t convince Draco not to join the Death Eaters, who can?

“You look like hell,” Wilson said when he was still ten feet away.

“Feel like hell, too.” He was aware of how heavily he was leaning on his cane, how much sweat was beading on his forehead. “Hey, isn’t that a funny coincidence?”

Wes and Gunn, flirting in that way they do.

“I’m with Cordy,” said Gunn, the traitor. “Fair fight, Top Cat would beat any of your guys. Got the street smarts, got a tight crew…”

“Yes, it’s a shame so many of them are probably suffering from mange.”

“Hey, I seen every episode ever of that show. They never lost to that Dibble guy.”

“And as we know,” Wesley said solemnly, “Officer Dibble is the cartoon personification of The Man.”

Gunn grinned. “We talked about this before?”

“Not nearly as much as we have socio-political commentary in The Flintstones, but you’ve mentioned it once or twice.”

I laughed my ass off at this story, although it might not have been quite so funny if I hadn’t been so tired at 2 a.m. this morning.

This is one of those stories that I’m tempted to mark PWP even though it contains little actual sex; it’s pure romantic gratification with a side of humour.

R // Romance

This is set in the aftermath of Stephen’s escape from prison and torture in H.M.S. Surprise; those who know the books will recognize at once where I have fudged, and those who know only the movie will be completely lost, so I think I may have managed to confuse everyone. Huzzah! My apologies to Mrs Beeton and the Bard.

Actually, I didn’t find the story at all confusing, although I’m one of those who hasn’t read beyond Master and Commander, mostly because I can’t find Post Captain in any of the 8 used bookstores I visit on a regular basis, and I owe the public library $70.

I discovered House fic this week. Because I really needed another fandom. Aside from the few I’ve already recommended in the past few days, I have a whole list of others waiting to be added; unfortunately, I can’t connect to www.squidge.org, where the House fanfiction archive resides. I’m assuming (hoping!) that their bandwidth has just been used up for the month and that the archive will be available again tomorrow. Please, let it be up and running tomorrow…

Short and fluffy. Bonus: some weird, funny things you didn’t know.

Silvia Matos left New York City without a trace shortly before officials cracked down on her for 2,800 unpaid parking tickets – over a 38-month period, an average of 2.5 per day – totalling $171,000 in fines. She had registered her car at 19 addresses with 36 different license plates.

Greek myth

Dionysus visits the forge.

PG // Romance

Everyone has something to say about the love between an Elf and a Dwarf.

PG // Romance

Even when an Elf and a Dwarf become friends, misunderstandings are bound to happen now and then.

Also, this is probably the only good story where Legolas says ‘fuck’. You wouldn’t want to miss that.

Post-Not Fade Away. Spike gets his hair cut and he and Xander are grown-ups.

Most of the time Xander was thankful that Sunnydale had been sucked deep into the earth and that the earth hadn’t spit it back out.

Coming of Age // PG // Romance

Funny, and cute in a kinky way.

R // Romance

He bought socks, he fought wars, and went to bed alone.

One of my favourite pairings, a fact which is strange even to me. And some very good Snape-snark.

PG // Romance

Post-Call of the Wild, Ray and Fraser work out their living arrangements.

NC-17 // Romance

I grinned down at him. “Something tells me you’re not a morning person, Snape.”

I could have sworn Snape growled.

“All right, I’m leaving.” I drained the teacup and set it down. “I’ll take my sunny presence elsewhere until you’re feeling sociable.”

“I very much doubt you’ll wait as long as that, Black.” Snape said it in an undertone, but I was clearly meant to hear.

“Oh, I don’t know, I think Hell might be freezing over,” I said, on my way out the door. After all, I had just had a nearly civil conversation with Snape.

Severus and Sirius being grown-ups, for a change.

The Breakfast Club

20 years after. Reading this made me so happy. Pure enjoyment. It made me want more, but sadly, this is all there is.
