Escape Routes by slipthroughknot (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 thehoyden (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 thehoyden (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 cobweb_diamond (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 gyzym (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 Basingstoke (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 Dira Sudis (dsudis) (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 Molly (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 Liviapenn (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.

Oglaf, Old Spice Guy (Commercials)
Four Seasons by Toft (The Lesbian Mercenary/The Snow Queen) E
Four seasons in the life of the hot lesbian mercenary. Mjules' letter links to the relevant comic strips.
Oglaf is a new (to me) definitely NSFW Fandom that made me laugh a lot when I followed the links.
(Star Trek (2009)
You'll Get There in the End (It Just Takes a While) by seperis (James T. Kirk/Spock, Spock/Nyota Uhura) E
"Spock. Just say 'I don't trust Starfleet not to mess up the only captain in the fleet who I can train up to my expectations and enjoys running into danger wearing a blindfold as much as I do'."
Newbie to Trek fandom, so no perspective but this felt like a winning approach to integrating the new canon from the perspective of the new people.
White Collar
Always Starts the Same, with a Boy and a Girl by lightgetsin (Neal/Elizabeth, Peter/Elizabeth, Neal/Peter, Neal/Peter/Elizabeth) E
Summer, 1998. Neal Caffrey robs the gallery where Elizabeth O'Dell is working late, and comes away with a lot more than art. Agent Burke has no idea what's about to hit him.
What if Neal met Elizabeth first?
Con Dance by OnYourMark (June) T
Neal thinks his meeting with June was an accident. June, reaping the benefits of a con man in her guest room, knows much better.
This is delightful.
Stargate: Atlantis
Indelible by shaenie (Rodney McKay/John Sheppard) E
John has a useful gift for compartmentalization: he discards the irrelevant and moves on. Then Rodney makes an ill-considered move on a mission, John steps up to take responsibility for making reparations to the locals, and things take a turn for the complicated as Rodney, an alien society, and an armada of ships make standard operating procedure completely impossible.
Fascinating premise.
How Not to Fly by toomuchplor (Rodney McKay/John Sheppard) E
And then the door chimed, and Woolsey came in looking mournful and anxious, and everything got derailed.
Death and life, hope and hopelessness, aren't just for the Pegasus galaxy. Eventually, inevitably, it's going to happen on Earth. John and Rodney, loss and family and what it means to be home.
Harry Potter - Rowling
Little Red Courgette by blamebrampton (Draco Malfoy/Harry Potter) T
When this season's purple courgettes are woefully thin, Draco Malfoy thinks it amounts to small beans. Next thing he knows, the Department of Standards is over-run with leeks, Brussels sprouts all sorts of legislative difficulties, and somebody appears to have put a roquette under Harry Potter. Can Draco seize a marrow victory? Or will his plans for peas be squashed?
Funny! I laughed and had to read bits out to my long-suffering husemates.
Merlin (BBC)
A Study in Natural Philosophy by Mad_Maudlin (Arthur/Merlin) T
It wasn't all that unusual for people to hide their daemons; Merlin, however, seems to be taking it a little far.
His Dark Materials fusion; I thought the daemon choices were most apt.
