Fandom: Harry Potter
Author: lady_mahadevi
Rating: PG-12
Characters: Marcus Flint/Oliver Wood
Summary: Nothing gets to Oliver quite like Quidditch does.
Reccer’s Note: Wonderful idiot quidditch-boys-in-love fic! I love this so much. It sounds so much like boys talking about football in our world and yes!

Fandom: Harry Potter
Author: Penknife
Rating: PG
Characters: Remus/Sirius (and everyone else)
Summary: "In which Penknife successfully avoids signing up to write 100 stories about the Marauders, and merely sums up instead. All prompts taken from the fanfic100 table."
Reccer’s Note: It's very meta, but these are 25 un-fics which capture the characters really well, 22 and 23 are particularly heartbreaking.

Fandom: Due South
Author: blissfire
Rating: PG-12
Characters: Fraser/Kowalski, plus the rest of the usual cast
Summary: "Calm down, Ray. It isn't dead, it's gold-plated."
Reccer’s Note: Which reads like one of the wackier episodes with bonus Ray(K)/Frasier. And Turnbull at his most Turnbulliest.

Rating: General audiences
Characters: Diefenbaker, plus Fraser/Kowalski
Summary: ROUND POWDERED TASTY THINGS GOOD.
Reccer’s Note: Perfect Diefenbaker fic. I love his food-centric view of the world and slight houndly sneakiness and the way he conceptualises human things.

Fandom: Wrestling
Author: Twig
Rating: PG-12
Characters: AJ Styles/Christopher Daniels
Summary: It's not over. It will never be over. [TNA, April 2007]
Reccer’s Note: You know how sometimes a fic will just capture the dynamic of a particular ‘ship.  Like, the characters individually, and together, and the way that’s different.  This is that fic for Styles/Daniels.

Fandom: Marvelverse (MCU)
Author: st_aurafina
Rating: General audiences
Characters: Clint Barton/Laura Barton/Natasha Romanov
Summary: For bad-ass spies, domesticity is really scary.
Reccer’s Note: In fic set after Age of Ultron, I decided that I required Hawkwife in my Black Widow/Hawkeye fic.  This is the perfect Barton/Romanov/Barton fic.

Characters: Danny Williams/Steve McGarrett
Summary: Q: Is he a surfing slacker or decorated navy SEAL? A: Try both.What is it about extreme surfer Steve "Smooth Dog" McGarrett? Ambitious documentarian Danny Williams has filmed risk-taking sports enthusiasts before, but he's never made a private tape of one of these bad boys…. And it turns out the daring, hot movie version's got nothing on the real thing!But Danny's X-treme documentary is turning into an X-asperating docudrama, since McGarrett won't sign the release form. No paper from McGarrett, no big break for Danny. McGarrett wants to help the fiery little number behind the lens, but he can't because his secret life as a navy SEAL has him deep undercover. Yet as Danny stumbles into the line of fire, all bets are quickly off. Steve's risking everything to save Danny. But will it be enough?
Reccer’s Note: This is a Harlequin AU and its so much fun.

Title: On the Lesser-Known Hazards of Piracy
Author: Penknife
Fandom: Pirates of the Caribbean
Characters: Elizabeth Swann, Jack Sparrow, Will Turner and Commodore Norrington
Rating: NC-17
Summary: Jack and Elizabeth find that something has gone terribly awry. Elizabeth knows just who to blame. A silly, smutty romp written for the Kink/Cliche Challenge. AU after the first movie, including some elements of DMC canon and ignoring others.
Reccer’s Notes: I'm still not sure what I like most of the fic - the way Penknife captures the essentially piratical elements of Elizabeth, or Jack Sparrow's ... Captain Jack-ness, or Norrington's self-loathing (actually, I do know, it's Gibbs.) It's that all this is managed despite a fantastical plot, in the best sense of that word. Fantastic fic.
