Good by Binky Original poster: raina_at Sorry for being a bit late with this. Here goes.
Title: Good Author: Binky Rating: NC-17 Pairing: Q/O, O/other Warnings: ( Warnings ) Author's e-mail, web site and/or LJ id: BinkyTorture@IKillClowns.com hominysnark Link to story: Good
Reasons for recommending: This story combines some of my most favourite elements. Action, plot, romance and hurt/comfort with emphasis on the comfort part. Most hurt/comfort stories spend a lot of time and space on the hurt, and only the resolution part of the fic on the comfort. In "Good", most of the owies happen off-screen, but Obi-Wan's healing process takes up most of the fic. The characterisation is spot-on for me, I adore her Qui-Gon and her Obi-Wan is neither whiny nor weepy, but a strong man who just wants to get his life back. The plot is failry classic, but grippingly done with unforseen twists and turns and a wonderful romance at the core of it. It's simply a good, long, well-spun, entertaining, heart-wrenching, and heartwarming, story. I read it through in one sitting and didn't want to put it down once. There was talk of a sequel and Binky posted the first few chapters. Also, she wrote a cute little PWP companion piece to the story. I hope she finishes the sequel, I for one would love to read it.

Keelywolfe - Circles Original poster: helens78 Title: Circles Authors: Keelywolfe Rating: NC-17 Pairing: Obi-Wan/Xanatos Warnings: ( ... ) Author's e-mail, web site and/or LJ id: keelywolfe, and her website's here. Link to story: http://www.masterapprentice.org/archive/c/circles.html (There's also a rather nice cover for it at The Obi-Wan Torture Oasis, here: http://slashgirls.tripod.com/toto/circleintro.html)
Reasons for recommending: Keelywolfe has a way of getting angst into the tone of her narrative that I really like. The way her sentences and paragraphs are put together do a great job of leading you from one moment to the next with a bit of a sense of dread ("ack, what's going to happen next...?"). Xanatos has always been a great TPM-era fanfic villain, but he's even better when he's been sought out on purpose. The connection between Obi-Wan and Xanatos here is fascinating to read, and the sex is hot, too. ;) Also, points for a clever title.
