theantimodel’s fic recs

WB rps: Tom/Michael, Jensen/Jared.

Uhm, this is really hot. Really, really hot. There’s veyeurism and stupid guy jokes and everything is so very good.

Here Comes the Flood

Supernatural: Dean/Sam.

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. I love sleepy, just woken up sex, and I love it even more when it’s really not so much about the sex as it is about the characters. This is exactly that.

Through the Long Night

Supernatural: Dean/Sam.

A little dark and angsty and very hot.

“Up! So maybe you’re not brave enough to get kinky with it, but you think about it, don’t you? Come on.” Dean dragged out the “ah” sound in “on” before finally biting it off at the end. “You’re a Winchester male. You have kinky thoughts, it’s a given, so give.”

Sam shifted. His knee bumped the steering wheel and not for the first time in his life he cursed being so tall. “Okay, so maybe I think about it.” Words so very soft in the night.

Conversations Over the Front Seat

Supernatural: Dean/Sam.

This is totally shamelessly hot crossbow porn. Yum.

The Side Benefits of Archery

Supernatural: Dean/Sam. Angsty and hot I do sort of wish that the ending wasn’t quite so “and they lived happily ever after” but it’s an enjoyable read nonetheless.

“I never wanted this,” Dean hisses, hands coming up to push at Sam as well, push him off Dean, a bloody finger print now where Dean’s injured palm connected with Sam’s chest. “I swore to myself the night before you left for Stanford, I’d never let it happen again!” he growls, his voice rising. “You fucked it up, Sammy!”

The Little Death

Supernatural: Dean/Sam.

There are some really fabulous and insightful lines in this story. It’s got a lot of introspection into both Sam and Dean’s characters.

Unspoken

Supernatural: Dean/Sam.

Raw, angsty and intense. I like that this doesn’t shy away from the sheer fucked-upness that Sam and Dean’s relationship could be like.

Maybe in some weird way they’re both broken, and they can’t be fixed but they can be broken together.

On The Snap

Supernatural/The O.C.: Dean, Seth/Ryan, Sam, little bit of Sam/Jess.

I am such a sucker for crossovers and this one is awesome. Seth Cohen is Sam’s Stanford roommate and it just goes from there. I love this a lot.

On Taking It Like A Bitch And Ten Other Ways to Say I Love You

Supernatural/Hellblazer (comics version): Dean/John Constantine.

This is a really cool crossover. Set just before the tv series starts, it’s Dean on a job in New Orleans without his dad and in deeper over his head than he’d ever have known. I really like this story because the crossover potential between two canon universes like these is so strong but also because John Constantine is in a whole different league than the Winchester boys never even knew existed. Constantine goes up against the fucking devil himself and lives to fight more demons another day, and that is so much bigger than Dean’s rock salt shotgun and gritty bravado have ever faced.

Finding Hell

Supernatural: gen.

Dean gets cursed and turned into a seven year old kid. The author calls this crack!fic, and the premise totally is, but this is a surprisingly insightful and complex story for a premise as potentially one-dimensional as some writers may have made it. Emily Brunson is in no way shape or form that writer. We all wonder about exactly what Papa Winchester was teaching Dean when he was growing up and this story goes into that in some really interesting ways. Sam is amazing, sympathetic and perfect in the situation because this opens his eyes up to so many things about how Dean must have grown up (something he sure as hell never thought about from Dean’s perspective ever before.) Plus, Dean is pretty much the most adorable thing on the block no matter how old he is, and at seven I just want to pinch his cheeks and play flashlight tag with him until Sam comes to feed him dinner and glare at me like the over-protective brother he is.

Under a Haystack

Supernatural: gen.

I love a good, solid gen fic and this is a great one. I especially love this because Lyra gives Dean superpowers and who the hell could resist pyro!Dean? note: I’ve linked to part 2 because there’s a link to part 1 from there.

Works in Mysterious Ways

Supernatural: gen.

This isn’t a crossover per se but it takes some elements from Phillip Pullman’s His Dark Materials trilogy and puts them to very cool use. This is a really neat story.

Sever, Mirror, and Mend

Supernatural: gen.

OMG Dean and Sam and an orphaned kid and the metallicar and omg. Dean is so, so awesome when he’s all protective and grudging.

Untitled

Supernatural: gen.

This is such a fantastic story. Dean and Sam go up against a colony of faeries and it’s just, so, so good. Also the last line? Cracked my shit up so much. The dialogue in this is especially good.

Bargains

House MD: House/Wilson

I don’t read a ton in this fandom because I’m picky and fickle about my House/Wilson fic but this is a great one. Snappy dialogue and lengthy enough to really work for me (about 10,000 words for those of you who like to count.)

Synchronicity

House MD: House/Wilson

Sometimes, the fact that in her funny stories Pru makes all of her characters talk like teenagers annoys me and sometimes it makes me laugh. But the thing is, her stories are always, always entertaining no matter which feeling they inspire.

The Fine and Subtle Art of Cardiology

Stargate SG-1: Jack/Daniel

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous new Jack/Daniel with angst and lovely characterization and just, everything in due time. I really love this story. It’s long and just fundamentally beautifully written.

Rules of Evidence

Stargate SG-1: Jack/Daniel

This was started in 2003 and finished just this March. It’s one of my favorite clichés, Jack gets telepathy after a mission, and while this isn’t my absolute favorite telepathy fic, it’s really good and very hot.

Understood

Stargate Atlantis: Sheppard/McKay

Funny and sweet, John is jealous and Rodney is dense.

Trying to Pull On Braxa

Stargate Atlantis: Sheppard/McKay

Good characterization, lovely and intense.

Barrage

Stargate Atlantis: Sheppard/McKay

Mmmmmm. I have such a great amount of love for they met before Atlantis fics. And this one is fabulous. John’s a nervous Air Force Academy kid and Rodney’s just finishing his masters and just yes to everything.

What It Gives

Stargate Atlantis: Sheppard/McKay

I totally love this story. I’d file it under Atlantis made them do it if I had that kind of a file, but it’s so much more than that too. Great characterization and a lot of good detailing and some really fabulously funny lines. John, Rodney, and Atlantis are all really, really good characters in this.

The New Math

Stargate Atlantis: Sheppard/McKay

This is a good, long adventure fic. Good plotting and interesting characters, both familiar and original. I really liked this story but I did have some issues with it, McKay annoyed me and, while I wouldn’t normally complain about something like this, Sheppard and McKay did stop to makeout at improbable moments while they were still trying to get to safety.

The Machinery of Heaven

Stargate SG-1: Jack/Daniel.

First time fic, romantic and lovely without ever crossing the line into schmoopy or sacharrine. I really like Princessofg’s Jack and Daniel and I love that this story is just ansgty enough that you’re not quite sure where she’s going to take it.

A Date, But No Flowers

Stargate SG-1: Jack/Daniel.

Mmmmm this is gorgeous, a slow molasses building of movement all in this lovely sleepy tone. Excellent Jack and Daniel and just lovely.

Avalanche

Stargate Atlantis: Ford/Sheppard

This pairing should work at all but it does and it’s fantastic. Seriously, I’ve always been an OTP kind of girl for this fandom and yet–this is a really, really great example of why it’s rewarding to branch out.

Behind You All the Way

Stargate Atlantis: Sheppard/McKay

Oh god, this is such an amazingly good story. Gorgeously subtle and layered, creepy and haunting and so, so good. And despite all those adjectives which would indicate otherwise, I wouldn’t necessarily call this story as a whole dark, so don’t feel like you shouldn’t read it if you stay away from the dark!fics.

The Ratio of Burning

Stargate Atlantis: Sheppard/McKay

Eeee! A short fic which features Sheppard as a hot construction worker! If that doesn’t sell you–well–it just should.

Construction Work

Stargate Atlantis: Sheppard/McKay

Eleveninches always knows how to bring the fun and this story is such a wonderful AU set in Atlantis. Sheppard is a skateboard riding botanist! Rodney is the exact same (except not in charge!) Completely hilarious and endearing.

The Roads Never Lead Where They’re Supposed to Go

Stargate Atlantis: Sheppard/McKay

Okay so thegrrrl always writes the best porn but this story is so much more than that. It’s a first time story with a lot of buildup and it’s long and just–gorgeous throughout.
