Kat Recs All The Fics, Round 3 - Day 7

[kat_lair]

I'm finishing this round with a mixed bag of stories. Hope you've enjoyed the recs and be a better reader than I am and leave authors some feedback.


Bandom

It's All Over My Face - Frank/Mikey. I could literally read dozens of these room mates getting together fics. As always with Des' writing, boys are dirty, rude, awkward, obnoxious boys, which makes the feelings part all the more effective. This is both realistic and sweet, great character voices and dialogue.

Lock and Key - Frank/Mikey, college AU. They're college room mates (yes, yes, dozens, I said). Mikey keeps buying sex toys and one day comes home with a chastity belt. Frank finds it hard to keep to the platonic friends. The ust is delicious. Plus, who can resist Mikey Way with his cock in a cage? Not me.

Tints 'Verse - Bob/Gerard, Frank/Mikey, AU. Ray runs a gardening firm with Frank and Bob, and one day they end doing a job for the Way brothers, who are in need of help with more than just their lawn. This is lovely story about friendship and a painful one about living with depression. Heart-warming, realistic and ultimately hopeful. Highly recced.
 

Discworld

When Life Gives You Apples - Gen. Communication technology comes to Lance and the witches make it their own. Death too. This was written as a part of the pod_together challenge and so I encourage you to both read and listen to it. The author has the style and voices spot-on and the reading and special effects add to the experiences. Very funny.


Hawaii Five-0

The Good Ones - Danny/Steve, AU. Steve is, well, Steve, and Danny is  his highly overworked Guardian not-Angel. Danny's rant are not diminished by his demise, and the fic gives glimpses of how Steve could be without his partner's mellowing effect. Enjoyable read.  


Sherlock

Slave Me - John/Sherlock. Mmm, I do so enjoy a good slave fic. John wins (with some inside help) Sherlock at a card game. The process of setting him free is long and fraught with things unsaid and urges unfollowed. Angsty and filthy in all the right places.

The High Tide series - John/Sherlock. John is being wooed. Sherlock finds himself choking on jealousy. Once the misunderstandings are all sorted, the main story is followed by two sensuous and romantic love scenes which are an absolute treat to read.


Star Trek XI (Reboot)

Renovation - Kirk/McCoy. Hilarious crack in which alien ray makes Kirk go into a full on domestic nesting mode and he keeps decorating and buying furniture all the while hating himself. I almost peed my pants laughing. The trip to space!IKEA is hysterical.

Safeword - Kirk/McCoy. Kirk needs something to quiet his doubts and thoughts, and goes looking for it in the wrong places. Luckily, McCoy is there for him, in a way Kirk never expected. Lovely exploration of pain and control, and Kirk is deliciously broken in this.

The Care and Feeding of Your Starship Captain - Kirk/McCoy. Kirk needs release in a safe environment. McCoy is used to making snap decisions. Guh, guh, the discipline scene and Leonard's pov is handled so well here; the certainty, the shock, the deep care and devotion... Both guys are perfectly in character.

These posts have been excellent and provided many hours of enjoyable reading, but I outright squealed when I saw the Kirk/McCoy recs. I have such a tremendous kink for Kirk/McCoy with a side of hurt/comfort, which is something that's very evident in most D/s fics anyway. So, yeah. Thanks for that.

I would also like to note that whilst 'Safeword' really wasn't my kink, Bones telling Kirk "It's your prostate, you ignorant hick" made me laugh harder than anything else has ever made me laugh. So again, thanks for that rec.

:DDDD I'm so happy to hear you've enjoyed the recs. I've done a handful of Kirk/McCoy recs before this, you should find them under the Star Trek tag. And if you haven't read it yet, do prepare to lose days to Switch (http://ceres-libera.livejournal.com/679.html) - it is on my 'to rec' list but didn't get to it this time around.

_{ahahaha, I feel that line would make an excellent t-shirt slogan....}
