The second part of the Sherlock fic is giving me trouble *shakes fist at self*, so here, instead, are the first 500 words of a White Collar/ Hawaii Five-O fic I know I will never finish because I have no idea what kind of plot would follow from this--I just liked the idea of them all meeting cute--

Think of it as an extra long plot bunny up for adoption, if you're so inclined--

Hi Folks:

My third rec post for

spnroundtable is here: 5 fics featuring Dean w/o Sam--1 pre-series; 3 Stanford-era; one post-S3 AU (all but one are gen).

It was a really busy week, and I feel like I have a million White Collar and Sherlock fics I've been meaning to read open in tabs. Here are a couple of short things, though:

White Collar

We Protect Our Own by anon. (Found via

jrosemary's wonderful White Collar Fixation blog) (GEN)

This is a fanfic trope--character X has previous experience of child pornography--that I usually steer well clear of--it can be such an easy excuse for gratuitous angst and magical-fixit h/c. But--it makes more sense for Neal than it does for many characters, and this piece is really nicely done--with an emphasis on procedure, and what it's like to live with difficult experiences, rather than making them magically go away. The interactions between Peter and Neal are perfectly IC.

Sherlock

Okay, I know there's a fandom preference for asexual!Sherlock--and there are plenty of reasons--both in canon and in BC's performance--for going with that. I've read a lot of great fic along those lines.

However, there is a kind of counter-current for a sexually greedy, toppy Sherlock, which I have to admit I enjoy the heck out of. Here are two short pieces that explore that characterization:

Innominate by

accede (NC-17).

Covert groping at the Chinese Circus in 1.02. Beautifully written and blazing hot.

Timeline by

entangled_now (NC-17)

Writing on the body. Gorgeous! (and if you haven't been reading

entangled_now's Sherlock fic, may I suggest you start? The ratings range from pg to nc-17, and the character work is amazing!)

Hi Folks:

My second

spnroundtable rec post is here: this one is all J2 non-AU h/c (a seemingly specialized but actually vast subgenre--I'm sure I've left your favorites out!).

And since this seems a good place to share some other recs:

1. Two Pairs of Hands by chainsaw_poet (on AO3) (Sherlock, John, Mycroft--pg)
Even if you don't like malaria!fic as much as I do, this is a funny and sweet piece of h/c. (and if you do like malarial!Watson, it's a real treat to see it done for the 21st century!).

2. I've finally seen the summer White Collar finale (2.09). Dang, that was good! Let me see if I can sum up my feelings in a non-spoiler-y was:

* flail * Neal's hair * Peter's voice * Neal's smudges * bites nails until January *

I've read one gorgeous coda for the ep.:

In little rooms in buildings in the middle by

lowriseflare (pg, gen)

3. I've also finally seen the Merlin S3 premiere. And, well....I enjoyed it, even though there seemed to be a lot of hooey mixed in with the good stuff. I have to say that as much as I adore Colin Morgan, and worry excessively about whether he's getting enough to eat, I am, as always, far more interested in Arthur. The Merlin story arc is too much of a will-he-won't-he (reveal his magic), either/or set-up. Whereas the Arthur story arc--will he (how will he) give up his prattishness and learn to be a great king?--makes room for actual character development.

I don't keep up with Merlin fic, but if you've read anything good, let me know!

I’m one of the guest rec’ers at

spnrountable this month. And I decided to jump in at the deep end and post a list of "Blood, Bondage and Brutality” recs. Mostly kink, so click at your own risk. Though there’s one gen fic in there. Because on SPN, sometimes the bloodplay is canon.

We're leaving tomorrow for Vancouver--last trip of the summer, thank goodness! Everyone cross their fingers that the random forces of fate let my path cross Jensen Ackles's. Y'know, in a coffee shop or something. It could happen, right?

Two quick fic recs before I go:

I've been doing a crap job of keeping up with the fic-splosion of the shiny new Sherlock fandom, although I have some things saved on delicious (with the Sherlock2010 tag)--mostly excellent fics by well-known writers.

But today I read the most touching fanfic I've read for a long time, The Hour of Separation by

vegarin. John-centric, set after 1.03, and aside from being emotionally rich it does a lovely job of melding book!canon and Sherlock!canon.

Also for those you who like White Collar h/c,

bibliothekara posted an excellent, short fill for my request for "Peter. Appendicitis" at the

whitecollarhc fic meme: Corollary Alpha: part one and part two . Among its pleasures is a great Jones POV.

Okay--see y'all next week--
