In A House Made Of Sycamore by Mz. B. Stone
Fandom: Stargate SG-1
Rating: R
Pairing: Jack/Daniel, Hathor/Daniel/Jack/OC
Length: ~1,800 words
Warnings: m/m, m/f, dub-con
Summary: Hathor's First Prime watched, face impassive, as the first mature symbiote slid down the throat of the Beloved.
>>: Pretty but sad.

Allegiances by Rivka T.
Fandom: BtVS & AtS
Rating: R
Pairing: Buffy/Riley
Length: ~7,900 words
Warnings: m/f
Summary: The Initiative has a new plan involving the Slayer, but she doesn't want to play along. How far would you go to do the right thing?
>>: Dark.

All That Glitters Isn't Gold by Villain !
Fandom: South Park
Rating: NC-17
Pairing: Cartman/Kyle, Craig/Kyle, various combinations of Cartman/Kenny/Kyle/OC
Length: ~91,000 words
Warnings: m/m, m/m/m, ncs, violence, voyeurism
Summary: 'Cartman hires Kenny to help him with his illegal business. Kyle finds out, and both he and Kenny fall into Cartman's trap.'
>>: The characterization in this is fantastic. *_* Villain's Cartman is a disturbingly believable incarnation of that fat, manipulative, psychopathic megalomaniac we all know and hatelove, all grown up and ten times as dangerous. His obsession with Kyle has only grown over the years, and he's spent the time since graduating from high school concocting an elaborate scheme to make Kyle his. Kyle hasn't given much thought to his childhood nemesis since leaving South Park, but he's still the person most capable of dealing with Cartman's bullshit and he doesn't intend to let him get away with it – or anything, for that matter. This story brings to mind the old paradox about an irresistible force meeting an immovable object; Cartman is as brilliant as he is insane, but Kyle is an incredible badass who always gives back as good as he gets. Be warned: herein lies a great deal of graphic sex and violence, and the story is quite dark in places. Kenny is in way over his head, Craig's a dick, Cartman is both fascinating and disturbing in turns, the OC is surprisingly likable, and Kyle is more hardcore than Chuck Norris (and much better looking, to boot).

Lex Talionis by Foodstamp
Fandom: South Park
Rating: R
Pairing: slight Kenny/Gregory, Stan/Kyle, others
Length: ~73,000 words
Warnings: discussion of ncs, coercion
Summary: 'Years after losing contact with their childhood friends, Detectives Marsh and McCormick pick up a domestic abuse case that exposes their own dark history.'
>>: Oh god, the angst. T_T This is a story wherein a certain someone ruins everyone's lives, then dies much more swiftly than he deserves and leaves behind a huge mess of secrets and regret. It's incredibly depressing. However, it's also very well written and has some good twists. The main pairing is Stan/Kyle, but the story is from Kenny's POV and it largely focuses on a criminal investigation he's been assigned to with his temporary partner, Detective Gregory St. Clair.

In Principio by Thamiris
Fandom: Mythology
Rating: NC-17
Pairing: God/Lucifer
Length: ~5,000 words
Warnings: m/m, pwp
>>: A steamy rendition of the Beginning. Pornographic but beautiful, and quite funny if you don't take this sort of thing too seriously.

Over Blogging by various
Fandom: South Park
Rating: G - R
Pairing: various, including Cartman/Kyle, Gregory/Kyle, Wendy/Bradley, Kenny/Stan, Christophe/Gregory, Bebe/Clyde, Red/Clyde, Craig/Clyde, and many more
Summary: Over Blogging is a South Park RP that begins when Stan, Kyle, Kenny, and Cartman are in their Junior year of high school. A wide variety of characters are involved and the RP includes traditional stories, script-style dialogues, and the use of social media as a storytelling device. I don't normally take much interest in RPs, but this one is pretty interesting (I loves me a good drama). Kyle's relationship with Cartman (and his later relationship with Gregory) is the main draw for me – see Operation: Cannot Possibly Fail for more on the former – but every character has his or her own things going on and there should be a little something for everyone. Much of the RP takes place exclusively on Tumblr, but most characters have a personal blog (collected here for convenience) and there's also a Livejournal community for off-Tumblr meetings between characters (ie, everything else). Going through the backlog isn't the most straightforward of reading exercises, but it's fun stuff if you're an SP fan.

Märchen: Midwest Arc by Labyrinth1n3 !
Fandom: South Park
Rating: NC-17
Pairing: Kyle/Eric, slight Cartman/Wendy, Cartman/OC, Stan/Kyle, others
Length: ~312,500 words
Warnings: violence, slight dub-con
Summary: 'Eric finds himself at odds when he's forced to decide between leading his own army of Neo Nazis and pursuing a very vulnerable Kyle who is determined to fight for his independence after his turbulent break up with Stan.'
>>: Märchen needs some heavy editing and frequently contains German dialogue that's left untranslated until the end of the chapter, but it's a fascinating story and well worth the read. The relationship between Kyle and Eric is complex and becomes increasingly intense, and watching them bond over German lessons and a mutual hatred for Stan is pretty damn entertaining. XD It took me a while to get into the plot (which involves Cartman leading a Neo Nazi hate group with the foremost goal of preventing them from targeting Kyle) but it's nearly as gripping as the development of Kyle and Eric's relationship, and plays a very important role in it. The characterization is fantastic, and although the story begins with Kyle an emotional wreck, he ultimately becomes one of the strongest characters; he and Cartman are both crazy and ruthless and occasionally very sweet, bringing new depths to the epitomical love/hate relationship. The parts about Nazism and the German language are pretty interesting, too!

Meet the Moon by YoungBoho
Fandom: True Blood / Southern Vampire Mysteries
Rating: NC-17
Pairing: Eric/Sookie, (anti-) Bill/Sookie, slight Sam/Sookie
Length: ~97,000 words
Warnings: m/f, wip
Summary: 'Eric throws a wrench into Bill's plans, causing him to seek the ultimate vengeance, which puts Sookie in the crossfire. Now Eric has to choose between Sookie and the life he loves.'
>>: This story begins after the Fellowship attack in Dallas. Sookie's struggling with the new feelings inspired by Eric's blood, and it isn't helping that Bill's acting strange while Eric seems much more approachable than usual in the wake of Godric's death. This sets the stage for an emotional roller coaster involving a (genuinely creepy!) haunting and an unconventional but devastating curse that may change Sookie's life forever. Also included are some very steamy scenes between Eric and Sookie. ;)

Three Can Keep a Secret by daniel
Fandom: Harry Potter
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: gen
Length: ~2,400 words
Summary: 'Harry Potter. Antonin Dolohov. And a Secret.'
>>: Takes place several years after the series. Can I just say oh snap?

Abbott and Costello Meet the Rainbow Coalition by shrift
Fandom: Farscape
Rating: R
Pairing: D'Argo/John, others
Length: ~2,300 words
Warnings: m/m, f/f
Summary: 'It seemed like a good idea at the time.'
>>: This is a weird little piece in which John and D'Argo get wasted and are led astray by a pair of hot alien party girls. Check out her website for more John/D'Argo and a few other things.
