Light At The End Of The Tunnel by bluflamingo Rating: T, Words: 3,191 The first time Catherine meets Steve, he's a voice on the other end of the radio, asking for her help.

Agitated States of Amazement by @emphasisonthehomo Rating: T, Words: 5,823 He meets Stef when he’s like 18, on a sub-reddit that doesn’t exist anymore. She’s kind of a huge fucking cunt. Danny’s kind of in love with her. OR: Sometimes the people you meet on the internet stick with you.

I’m dumb she’s a lesbian (I thought I had found the one) by @five-wow Rating: G, Words: 1,299 Danny waves his coffee around a little more. The lid is the only thing that prevents them from having to dig up a mop. “What’d I do? All I did is tell her you’re handsome and single and free Friday night.” “You were setting us up,” Quinn summarizes. Or: Just another morning in the life of Steve McGarrett, whose best friend is deeply concerned with getting him a date.

COMPETITIVE BY NATURE by alizarin_nyc Rating: E, Words: 2,701 "Oh come on, that isn’t gay," Steve says. "I was in high school. You’re gay, you’re totally gayer than me. Your pants are tight across the ass!” Steve has his little protesty face on and it’s exactly like his earnest, don’t-worry-we’ll-catch-your-husband’s-killer face. It is so, so gay.

Does This Marriage Come With Any Perks? by @pterawaters Rating: T, Words: 3,369 After Danny suffers a life-threatening injury, he finds himself in Steve’s care. He doesn’t remember much about what happened after getting shot, but he’s pretty sure signing a marriage certificate wasn’t something he’d forget.

Sometimes You Just Need a Decoder Ring by kho Rating: T, Words: 2,849 Danny follows Steve into the kitchen and sticks the beers in the fridge. “Actually I’m of the mind that it takes two to tango so I don’t know who started and who fueled but you’re both in this fight, so I’m just trying to figure out how to diffuse this situation so I don’t wind up as collateral damage.” (Mary & Steve centric)

You Move Me by dogeared Rating: M, Words: 486 Yoga, and waffles, and kisses.

I Want A Man With A Slow Hand by thefourofswords Rating: E, Words: 6,597 “Can I ask you a question?” he asked on their way to a crime scene, because no time like the present, and Danny believed in ripping off band-aids. “Why not?” Steve replied, eyes on the road. “You’re gonna even if I say no.” “What do you like in bed?” Or: Danny undertakes a very important mission to get Steve laid. For his health. Ahem.

As You Wish by Brumeier Rating: M, Words: 4,077 When Steve comes back to Hawaii to find the man who killed his father he finds much more when he stumbles across a mysterious bottle on the beach.

Just Enough Hope by aries_taurus Rating: T, Words: 2,594 He hopes for a lot of things: that he didn’t make a mistake taking on this taskforce, that the ache he’s feeling in his soul will go away, that he can sleep at night without seeing his best friend being ripped to shreds by bullets, without remembering he left him behind for nothing, or hear a gunshot killing his father over a bad sat connection and he just hopes he wakes up one day without a scream dying in his throat.

All Hearts Come Home For Christmas by @cowandcalf Rating: E, Words: 12,198 Steve debates for four days if he should eat this year's Christmas dinner in the charity Christmas tent organized for the veterans by HPD.

Built For Tough Battles by thefourofswords Rating: E, Words: 20,770 Adam nudges his shoulder, “He’ll find his way back, you know.” Danny blows out a breath. “I dunno anymore about that. The stuff he’s gone through in the last year...” “He’s had a lot go very wrong, very quickly,” Adam says. “I’m sure it feels like he’s slowly been losing parts of his family and when you reach a certain point, loss aversion takes over. It can make you do crazy things…” Or: Danny waits for Steve to be ready to come back.

Friends don't let friends... by kaige68 Rating: E, Words: 2,008 Steve finds a desolate Adam in a bar. (Steve/Adam)

Foreplay by @stellarmeadow Rating: M, Words: 4,305 When sparring isn't just sparring.

by Indehed

Danny can see ghosts. Plain as day, right in front him. He’s always been able to see them - it’s his gift. But if you ask him, it feels more like a curse.

When Rachel moved to Hawaii and Danny followed, he decided to hide his gift. If people or ghosts knew about it, they’d take advantage, they’d use him. And he was sick of that. So instead, he gave up being a cop and bought a bookstore where he could spend more time alone and fewer dead people bothered him.

When he’s visited by the ghost of a brutally murdered man, he puts in an anonymous tip about his killers but unbeknownst to Danny, Five-0 has immunity and means, and the head of the task force, Steve McGarrett, isn’t above hunting down someone to make them less anonymous. Before long, Danny finds himself consulting and going undercover with McGarrett, putting himself back into the dangerous situations he used to face as a cop. The things he’ll do to help a ghost cross over…

HI!

I have loved your trans!Mcdanno, I am so curious about their future and their relationship!

Could you recommended Mcdanno fics? Because I have tried to read some.but they didn't satisfy me completely

THE WAY THIS WAS LANGUISHING IN MY DRAFTS AND I COMPLETELY FORGOT??? I AM SO SORRY.

Anyways, thank you so much!!!

I do tend (mostly) towards fic surrounding the first few season, just because I do have beef with some of the canon writing choices that were made. I think that can be reflected in my own writing as well tbh. Anyways, that's my way of saying a couple of these are old as hell. I'm not gonna rec too many, but these are a few that I think of fondly and often.

NOW. In no particular order. Actually in alphabetical order, because I've got OCD.

Deus Ex Girlfriend by ninjaboots and thingsandstuff

I don't remember how I stumbled on this one, but its legit how I got back into H50 after flirting with it briefly ages ago. A/B/O and genuinely so so fucking good. THE PINING.

Mr. Rosso Goes to Hawaii by Siria

Some good old fashioned undercover as married fic. You gotta love it.

'Ohana Kupa by shaefrotherdon

I love "Steve goes to Jersey" fics, and this has got to be one of my faves. Basically everything about Danny's family in this was written before the show addressed it, and it's very sweet.

Thirty-Six Hours and Fifteen Minutes by leupagus

Very hot, very funny. The two of them figuring out the beginnings of their relationship. Lots of banter.

Transformative by boxparade

A nice trans danno series! I cannot lie, I started having Thoughts™ about Danny being trans, and went looking for it. These fics really cemented that I was going to be writing some of my own, because I was like "There's not enough, I need more."

[cowandcalf]

McDanno Fic Rec - There's nothing better than a fanfiction that makes your mind go *boom* and you get sucked into this realm of steam, and emotions and a ranting, pining Danny. Nothing compares to that feeling when you got highly inspired and cuddled by an outstanding McDanno story. My world is bright and amazing and full of hot vibes of the boys. Fanfiction is the best medicine there is. Enjoy!

[trickster-archangel]

I agree. It's stil one of the absolute favourite of mine to read again and again.

GUYS

I just read the best mcdanno fic and I can’t handle it

IF YOU HAVENT ALREADY, GO AND READ “A STUDY IN TOUCH” BY VICTORIAAGREY. IT WILL GET YOU KILLED GOOD

And dear writer, you probably are somewhere around here. Know that you are awesome, your writing is a-fucking-mazing and you’ve got yourself a fan

[grace-williams-xo]

I have literally hundreds of downloaded fics on my phone (all sorted into fandom, sometimes by ship and length as well) but I don’t download until after I’ve finished reading it and I really liked it SO I think it’s time I stopped gatekeeping.

Drop requests here or in my asks for any fic recs! All lengths, all genres, all ratings, lots of ships. Be as specific or vague as you want. Mostly gay but there’s some straight lmao. (Gay/straight ratio also depends on the fandom).

Oh, you hit on a rare one! A McDanno marriage of convenience fic for Hawaii Five-0.

ho'okāne by Siria

Summary:

As active as Danny's imagination was, however, as strong as all his fears could be at the thoughts of his little girl being taken away from him again, he'd forgotten to factor in one very important element: Steve.

Feedback Fest 2024: H50 Fic Recs

for International Fanworks Day, February 15 (for more info see this post by @transformativeworks)

I haven't posted a rec list in a long while and I'm taking this opportunity: in alphabetical order here are ten of my favorite H50 fics (by far not all of them though):

1. Agitated States of Amazement by @emphasisonthehomo Rating: T, Words: 5,823 He meets Stef when he’s like 18, on a sub-reddit that doesn’t exist anymore. She’s kind of a huge fucking cunt. Danny’s kind of in love with her. OR: Sometimes the people you meet on the internet stick with you.

2. Anchored by lavvyan Rating: E, Words: 883 One of the things Steve takes pride in is that he knows and understands Danny better than anyone. Better than his parents, certainly better than Rachel, and probably even better than the brother whose name shall not be spoken. Pure, plotless smut.

3. the art of leaving and saying goodbye by verasteine Rating: E, Words: 115,812 2007 is the year Danny learns that choice can be the worst kind of heartbreak. AU.

4. The Bareknuckle Poet by pleasebekidding Rating: E, Words: 66,793 After a serious accident left Steve temporarily wheelchair-bound, working towards his recovery, he enrolled at Rutgers for a year. He met Danny Williams in his criminology course, wearing pride pins and chipped black nail polish, so sure of himself that Steve found it breathtaking. What happened next redefined Steve's sense of self, his ambitions, and many of his priorities.

5. Guided Missile by McParrot Rating: E, Words: 11,772 Steve is primed and targeted and he’s not stopping until he’s hit that target or crashed and burned.

6. Grand Theft Octo by Cattraine Rating: n/a, Words: 8,741 Danny is no cephalopod expert, but he’s pretty sure regular octopi don’t hang around the docks getting drunk from stolen beer.

7. I Know You're a Mistake I Won't Regret by LunaCanisLupus_22 Rating: E, Words: 40,958 “I don’t know how your omega at home lives with you,” Danny says, half serious, half mocking. It’s a throw away comment. Not meant for further thought but Steve stiffens considerably, hackles rising with the urge to attack and defend. Mostly because there is no omega waiting for him at home. And there’s no alpha Lieutenant Commander, Steve McGarrett, either.

8. Signals by Destina Rating: E, Words: 1,674 Steve knows how to read the signals.

9. Still The Rain by @thekristen999 Rating: M, Words: 21,720 Danny turned around until he faced Steve McGarrett, Danger Magnet. "Mountain cliffs; dinghies in the middle of the ocean; nightmare camping trips. You had to add a rainforest adventure during a monsoon to the list, didn't you?"

10. Up In The Air by JoJo Rating: G, Words: 1,261 Eight hours in a supply plane to think about how nothing was solved.

[lolli-says-stuff]

Good soulmate au fic Recs?

[ilikemcdanno]

It’s Steve’s birthday!! And also the celebration @mayberrycryptid is holding!! 🎉🎉🥳 happy Hawaii Five-0 Day

Here’s my 10 fanfic recommendations!! I’m also doing my three favorite episodes. :)

1. Situational awareness, summary: Steve McGarrett has a soulmark from the moment he’s born. He has a mark that his dad covers up when he’s a baby, an ugly black thing in the shape of knuckles splayed across his cheekbone. Danny Williams gets his mark a few months after he’s born. There’s a black smear across the back of his hand and down two fingers and Danny dreams of the day his soulmate will touch him for the first time and set the mark alight with color. Steve McGarrett grows up hating his soulmark, Danny Williams dreams of the day he'll meet his soulmate. Somehow, against all odds, they find each other.

2. The morning after (the night before), summary: If, after you’ve been pining for going on a decade, you turn over in bed and end up nose to nose with the secret object of your affection, it’s no less than perfectly reasonable to yell “eep!” and flail wildly until you topple over the edge of the mattress and land with a loud thump on your back on the floor…. Naked.

3. Returned: one diamond ring, summary: I’ve seen a lot of people coming in and out of my shop over the years. Tourists looking for some souvenir jewelry, distrustful trophy wives wanting to see if their diamonds are real, young kids wanting to buy something nice to impress their girlfriend, eyes shining with nerves as they prepare to pop the question. Every so often, I get someone particularly memorable. A young man so nervous about picking out the right ring he nearly hurled on the display case, a blonde woman so angry when she tried to fence the diamonds off a tennis bracelet her husband had given her only to find out they were fake that she cracked the glass on a case holding earrings, and the tall, dark haired man with the edges of tattoos peeking out from under his sleeves.

4. Forever in paradise, summary: Danny Williams is tired of being stuck in New Jersey while his daughter is 5,000 miles away in Hawaii. When an undercover assignment with Honolulu PD becomes available, he jumps at it, even though he could write a book on how much he hates reality TV… And then he meets Steve.

5. Letting go, summary: He shifted, pressing a kiss against Danny's shoulder. "How did you know?" he managed… Danny didn't need to ask for clarification. "I know you." His hand curled protectively around the back of Steve's head. "The rest is just details." In the wake of Aunt Deb’s funeral, Steve finds some healing.

6. Ho'oponopono, Summary: Groundhog Day AU. Danny finds himself trapped in the same day over and over again.

7. Kill shot, summary: Steve's a mob assassin who just got his latest target - a former New Jersey detective named Daniel Williams. Unsurprisingly, that's when things get complicated.

8. the art of leaving and saying goodbye, Summary: 2007 is the year Danny learns that choice can be the worst kind of heartbreak. AU.

9. Love's a Battlefield (and the Navy Did Not Train Steve for This Shit), Summary: The Kalakaua-Kelly clan are determined to matchmake Steve. Out of desperation, Steve makes up a boyfriend named Danny… It doesn't quite go according to plan.

10. A Beautiful Thing, Summary: Tani catches a private moment between Steve and Danny—and she can't not look.

[trickster-archangel]

I've just finished reading "Too sick to pray" by @tygercaine and I'm about to start crying. Probably it's all my tragedies and traumas getting to the point of no return, but it moved something deep and terribly forlorn I thought I had hidden so well. Turns out I hadn't. Or maybe this fic is simply too powerful to resist it. Damn all my pet peeves about AUs who prevented me from reading it ages ago. Go read it immediately, if you love horror, dark themes, and vampires.

[h50fanficdirectory]

by unhingedthoughts24

Danny checks in with Steve after he gets word that his SuperSEAL husband has been injured in the field.

It goes about as well as can be expected.

"I was just wondering," Steve says. "Where do you go, when you need to feel at peace?" "At peace?" Danny repeats, thoughtful. He stays quiet for a while – longer than Steve expected he would. Steve looks at him across the seats, half to make sure Danny's still in the car with him, and meets his gaze. Danny's watching him, eyes soft and careful. "I'll show you," Danny tells him, sounding as if he's decided on something. "Tonight. After dinner."

 Or, Steve searches for peace and figures himself out with a little help along the way.
