I bring to you recs...
... of the Smallville type, in particular, the CLex smex.
I'm putting them under a cut just to save the flist, but really, you should check them out. I also have my personal thoughts on each rec as well, just in case that will help. I like long and plotty, so that's what you're getting. Don't get me wrong, I like short hot pwps too, but long and plotty and sexy is my favorite.
