Jaws by (Steve/Danny) T
9,487. Danny has a secret.
And seriously, what a great secret it is - you know you want this. AU with shapeshifters.

Ho'oponopono by (Steve/Danny) E
17,092. Groundhog Day AU. Danny finds himself trapped in the same day over and over again.
I love this when it's done well.

This Thing of Ours (It Needs a Better Name) by (Steve/Danny) E
35,923. Cosa Nostra: (kō'sə nō'strə) etym: Italian n. The branch of the Mafia operating in the United States. Literally, "our thing" or "this thing of ours."
Fantastic Danny re-envisioned as mafia and I love what leupagus has done with the female characters.

Reciprocity by (Steve/Danny) T
3,154. Steve tells himself not to read too much into things.
I am partly into this one because I love the way Danny speaks "“Yes,” Danny said, “As in, the day you start looking before you leap, I will perhaps update you in the way you seem to desire.”"

Hawaii Five-0
Escape Routes by (Steve/Danno) T
1,144. "You know, ever since I've known you, I've been locked into the trunk of a car three times," Danny said.
Adorable.

Inked by (Steve/Danno) T
6,541. Of course Steve is enjoying himself. They're bait for a serial killer who has some sort of serious hangup about tattooing loved ones' names on their skin -- of course Steve thinks this is practically like a vacation, but better, because the chances of collateral damage are higher.
This should happen ALL THE TIME.

Down the Shore Everything's All Right by (Steve/Danno) T
3,532. There's a better than average chance that Danny is getting crazier by association -- and he wouldn't change it for the world (although he could do without the head injuries, thanks).
Or, you know THIS.

Inception
I bet Nureyev never had to deal with this shit. by (Arthur/Eames) T
21,409. Modern-day AU. Arthur is a ballet dancer recovering from a serious injury, and is lucky enough to land the role of Oberon in Dom Cobb's reimagining of A Midsummer Night's Dream.
This is a bit of a romp, I liked the flavour.

we were once cinema gods in the night by (Arthur/Eames) M
21,304. That's the thing about Hollywood--everyone has a Hollywood story.
AU where Arthur is the incredibly anal guy who makes everything happen, Cobb is the brilliant director who launched them into stardom and Eames is the fantastic actor that Arthur recruited - love the pacing.

Merlin
Pairing Pendragon/Merlin by Anon (Arthur/Merlin) M
24,500. Arthur is a BNF and Merlin is his prized beta
Modern fannish AU, love the tone.

Sherlock Holmes
Intemperance by (Sherlock and Holmes/Mary) M
17,847. "Intemperance," a story from the secret journals of Doctor John H. Watson, intimate friend and long-time companion of the infamous Sherlock Holmes: A most curious and instructive report of the great man's improbable fecundation, gestation, and parturition.
Thoroughly awesome transsexual!Holmes, blew me away.

Vorkosigan Saga
The World That You Need by (Aral/Cordelia, Aral/Jole) E
45,602. In which a Countess renowned for her shopping discovers a gift she would like to give her husband and wonders how it may be arranged.
Polyamory Barrayarian style... or would that be Betan? This is just beautiful.

light from a lonely window by (Miles/Gregor) M
6,617. "Miles," Raven says, "say something to prove your brain isn't scrambled. You're upsetting the Emperor. And your mother."
My OTP, also; Love!

White Collar
And anyone who's ever had a heart by (Ell/Peter/Neal) M
7,265. Before seeing the picture, she'd just slotted Neal Caffrey in as one more thing Peter's brain couldn't let go of, and amusing yourself while your spouse hunted down the greatest international art thief of the age was certainly classier than being a football widow.
Ell is just so awesome in this.
