TSCC Fic Recs...

[cj2017]

Chasing down fan fic for TSCC is a mission and a half. With no central, comprehensive archive out there, figuring out the three bloody dots is easier than ensuring you don’t miss out on a decent story. So I decided to cobble together a list of some that I’ve enjoyed (YMMMV.)

Jameronians move along… nothing to see here…

Derek/Sarah

IMHO indiefic is one of the definitive voices for Sarah/Derek; funny, tender, brutal, painful and often sexy as hell. Anything by this author is worth reading and there’s an excellent recs list at this lj to boot.  Find all at http://indiefic-scc.livejournal.com/7984.html

If I had to pick favourites…

And So It Went (Adult) – Derek didn’t like Sarah… much. An ongoing series of snapshot scenes in the Connor household where D&S seem to spend an awful lot of time pushing each others’ buttons. (Linked to first part, subsequent chapters available at the above site)

The Price of Victory (Teen) – Bleak and heart-breaking and just a perfect resolution for a show whose characters are fighting against the end of the world.

Backup (Teen) – A gorgeous episode coda for Mr Ferguson is Ill Today, with a killer of a last line.

A Life More Ordinary (Teen) – I love this. Sarah drunk and brutally honest, in a car with Derek. Home truths, bitterness, what ifs?, Kyle and Stan, Stan the Car Man. Simply brilliant.

Next To Godliness  (NC17) – This almost gave me a heart attack the first time I read it. Explicit, filthy fun.

~~~

Salvation in the Grass (Teen) byroxybisquaint – Lovely piece providing closure for Sarah and Derek with regards to Kyle. 

The Grocery List (PG13) byroxybisquaint – Short, savage little fic which manages to sum up the Sarah/Derek dynamic in 500 words. Which is a very good effort.

~~~

Untitled bylife_on_queen – A short but very sweet scene from a longer unpublished fic, that fills my little Hurt/Comfort boots with joy.

Derek/Sarah smut…

Grin and Bear It (NC17) byeveragaby - One of my all-time favourites. Derek and Sarah set up the perfect, nuclear family, figuring Skynet won’t think to look for them playing happy families in suburbia. Just when you think it’s all going to be bake-sales and mowing lawns, they have amazingly hot sex outside the Parent Teacher Conference. Awesome doesn’t come close… 

~~~

 Testify (NC17) bysvilleficrecs – “unabashed porniness” but also with a sweet Kyle-related backstory before the smut. Which is then really hot.

~~~

A Lifetime’s Worth (R) bymonimala – Thank goodness for Derek’s shower obsession. And for Sarah’s habit of interrupting them. Another fic with a gorgeous final line.

A Little Less Conversation (R) bymonimala. Tag for Automatic for the People. Sarah has a slightly better experience in the shower this time around.

Redefinition (R) bymonimala. Short but very sweet and we get to find out Sarah’s favourite ice cream

~~~

Sarah-Centric

Different, with People (PG13) by masked-spangler – Thought-provoking fic that fits in well with the themes touched upon in Some Must Watch… Mention of rape.

Bulletproof (PG) by masked-spangler – Missing scene from Complications providing a bit of a thaw in the Sarah/Riley relationship.

~~~

Sarah/Cameron

La Petite Mort (NC17) bytrancer21 – There aren’t many S/C fics that work for me. I don’t know whether it’s just too big a leap for me to see them together, or whether it’s the reliance on fan fic cliché that seems to be so prevalent in this sub-genre. This one, however, did work. Sarah remains in character and maintains her edge, Cameron is well… Cameron and it’s both funny and incredibly sexy. Enjoy.

~~~

Sarah/Ellison

Not a pairing I’ve ever really considered or considered likely, but these two ficlets were on the recent Porn Battle site and are well worth a read.

If You Want to Live (Hard R) bypellucid

A Small Crime (Hard R) bypellucid

Feel free to suggest any that I’ve missed!

Go give K8tie a gentle nudge and tell her to finish it then ;-)

Good point. I suppose not everyone has that setting up that sends emails when someone replies to your comments even in other journals. *Goes to badger life_on_queen*

Speaking of nudges, you get mah email, or did it get lost in transit? Cause, yanno, blast crisis, exploding organs, and Madam Leather Knickers = good times all around. XD

Heh. I know I certainly don't! Don't tell her I sent you, she'll kick my ass ;-)

I got it! Night shifts hon, night shifts. Well, night shifts and unseasonably warm (for this country!) weather that has seen me sitting on my lazy ass outside with my shorts on writing um... well, smut... instead of sitting at the PC. Mea culpa, give me ten minutes and check yer inbox!

[castellan-craft.livejournal.com]

We can has smut nao? Don't let me delay you if that's the case!

*And the peasants rejoice*

[cj2017.livejournal.com]

*LOL* You are very quick off the mark! For the record... smut, not the best thing to write in very hot weather *g*

[castellan-craft.livejournal.com]

No shit I am *proud!face*. PS, these reply boxes are getting very very narrow. And you should totally set you account to send emails about comment replies so I can keep chatting you up in my 4.0 thread cause I'm geeking out. XD

And... really? You'd think the weather would totally reinforce the content! XD

[cj2017.livejournal.com]

They are getting narrow. I have no clue.

Hot weather + smut = very, very hot writer. It's not healthy.

PS - that email... I'm writing it right now!
