[http://candle-beck.livejournal.com/tag/mlb+fic Candle Beck]
* Recommended by [[Tropers/NYC Scribbler|NYC Scribbler]]
* Specific fandom is sports RPS, sub-fandom Major League Baseball, specifically the Oakland A's, both current and former. Very much slash with occasional het in the background.
* Candle likes it dark- sometimes a little too dark, but once she's started, you'll find yourself coming along for the ride and loving every fucked-up second of it. Her prose is lyrical and evocative. She loves California and makes it very clear through her writing. She often picks up a story after a few years and rewrites it as a POV flip. She'll occasionally dip a toe into AU, in which case things will be even darker and more fucked-up than usual. Best known for [http://candle-beck.livejournal.com/16157.html The Rest Of Your Life], but- well, see her tags; baseball isn't the only fandom she plays in, either.

* Pairings: Writes Jared Padalecki/Jensen Ackles... a lot. also some James Roday/Misha Collins
* has written several AU J2 fics with her most prolific being an epic series known as [http://users.livejournal.com/_mournthewicked/195307.html#cutid1 the Reinventing Love 'verse]. The 'verse is an AU with Jared/Jensen starting out in high school and moving on to college. _mournthewicked as a real talent or writing dialogue, and her fics are very easy and enjoyable to read. Parts of most of her fics are NSFW.

''[[Hang In There, Kogasa-san|Hang in There Kogasasan]]'' By [[Mizuki Hitoshi]] ([http://danbooru.donmai.us/pool/show/2420 Link]) (Ads are [[NSFW]])
* Recommended by [[User:Mandrke]]
* ''Synopsis'': A story of the life and times of [[Doujin|Doujinka]] Mizuki Hitoshi, [[Touhou|Touhouified]] and slightly exaggerated.
 
 
''[http://www.mediafire.com/?91n40v24i75116h John's Return To Liverpool]'' by Christopher Burns, first published in 1985 in ''Interzone'', a British fantasy magazine. [[Tropers/Kittenmommy|This Troper]] read it in ''The Year's Best Horror Stories XIV'', published in 1986 by DAW Books, Inc. As you may have guessed, this is an actual published story by a professional author, so I'm not sure it really belongs here. However, I just had to recommend it.
* Recommended by [[Tropers/Kittenmommy|Kittenmommy]].
* ''Synopsis'': He told her four versions of the afterlife. "Of course, she speculated about a fifth version. The dead returned to their old homes, haunting them, were restless and unsatisfied spirits until something finally laid them to rest. But he always felt so real in her arms..."
* ''Comments'': A [[Nightmare Fuel|very disturbing]] little story [[Paranoia Fuel|that stays with you long after you put it down]], and [[Mind Screw|leaves you wondering what was real]]. Did [[John Lennon]] [[Came Back Wrong|really return]], or was the POV character [[Hallucinations|imagining]] [[Go Mad From the Isolation|the]] [[Stalker with a Crush|whole]] [[Post-Historical Trauma|thing]]?

[http://sam-storyteller.dreamwidth.org/116839.html Close Your Eyes And Think Of England] by Copperbadge.
* Recommended by [[Kim W]].
* ''Synopsis'': Inspired by an appearance David Tennant made on the British chat show "Friday Night Project", during which the hosts read a visibly-shocked Tennant some [[Doctor Who]] slash fic. In this story, John Barrowman, Gary Oldman, and David Thewlis all then go on to tease Tennant by showing him just how much more "Doctor Who Porn" is out there.
* ''Comments'': It's short and fluffy, but you KNOW you've secretly always wanted to see the reactions some celebs have to bad fanfic starring...them.

''[http://archiveofourown.org/works/32341 Ad Nauseum]'' by theonlytwin
* Recommended by [[Tropers/Marythe Duke|Marythe Duke]]
* ''Pairings'': Peter Cook/Dudley Moore
* ''Synopsis'': There are many things Peter Cook and Dudley Moore fail to talk about. Explicit swearing, implicit love, a good dose of nonsense, cigarettes and alcohol. Very little actual slash. Bonus brief cameo from a young and closeted Alan Bennett! And voices!

''[http://community.livejournal.com/booshslashhaven/507025.html What's Not In Between]'' by trickpie
* Recommended by [[Tropers/Marythe Duke|Marythe Duke]]
* ''Pairings'': Julian Barret/Noel Fielding
* ''Synopsis'': All the bits that aren't in between. An elegant, hot, painful parabola of a bigger, stranger relationship.

''[http://jlh.livejournal.com/tag/%5B%20story:%20a%20dream%20that%20could%20not%20last%20%5D A Dream That Could Not Last]'' by jlh

* ''Pairings'': Ryan Seacrest/Simon Cowell, Amanda Overmyer/Carly Hennessey, Kimberley Locke/Anwar Robinson, Chris Richardson/Blake Lewis, Katharine McPhee/Chris Daughtry, and others
* ''Synopsis'': An AU romantic comedy set in 1939 London, when everyone knew war was on the horizon but no one was sure when or how it would arrive—which made love of all kinds that much more important. Follow a year in the life of three groups of (mostly) Americans: pilots who joined the RAF, singers and dancers in a swing music revue, and reporters for BBC Radio.

''[http://denofiniquity.livejournal.com/57129.html Tony and Matilda: Inspired by a True Story]'' by Denofiniquity
* Recommended by [[Chicago Ted 9242]]
* Pairings: Matt Stone/Trey Parker
* Synopsis: It's been six years since Trey Parker finished making "Cannibal! the Musical" and moved to New York City to work at Troma. Six years since he's spoken to his best friend. In his absence, Matt Stone gave up on the dream and resorted to becoming an accountant. Then, one day, they run into each other in Times Square, and as it turns out, that old saying is true: the more things change, the more they stay the same.
