Fandom:   To Reign In Hell  by Steven Brust
Title:  How Fallen
Author: shalott (astolat)
Genre: Slash, First Time, PWP, Book
Pairing: Satan/Lucifer
Rating: NC17
Warnings: None
Spoilers: The book.

Notes: I know this book isn't especially well known, but it's by one of my favorite authors, and I happen to be fond of it.  I'm very pleased that shalott managed to capture Steven Brust's wonderfully wry sense of humor, but I'm not surprised - she's good at pretty much everything she puts her hand to.  This fic may be too short for me, but it still made me very happy.

It's not hard to follow shalott's story, it's short, it just has two characters, and it's pretty much about the sex, anyway.   The only thing you really need to know is that this takes place in what will eventually called Heaven, fairly early on in the development of - pretty much everything.  The creatures that will someday be called angels and devils and demons and gods - well, they're brand new at this (having just recently developed consciousness/sentience/self-awareness?) so they're just learning what everything is about, and making up the rules as they go along.   So Lilith teaches Satan and Lucifer about sex, and then they decide to experiment on their own. 


Excerpt:

( Lucifer stared up at the ceiling and thought about how to answer the question. )



I rate this fic:  Pretty Damn Good

Fandom:  Stargate: Atlantis
Title: Mercy
Author: shalott (astolat)
Genre: Slash, Aliens Made Them Do It
Pairing: Sheppard/McKay
Rating: NC17
Warnings: Bondage, Fisting
Spoilers: None

Notes: Written for the sga_flashfic challenge "slavefic." It's not often that a fic leaves me speechless in just 1575 words, but shalott has done it here.  This fic just blows me away, everytime I read it.   The cliche Aliens Made Them Do It is actually accurate, but it's not a cliche fic.  It may use that as a premise, but it's far from cliche.  It's a powerfully moving story.

Excerpt:

( John stared down at his hands )


I rate this fic: This Is The Best Shit
Plus, The Dusty Seal of Approval: for blowing Dusty away in 1600 words or less.

Fandom:  Stargate SG-1
Title: Objectives
Author: shalott  (astolat)
Genre: Slash, Humor, Aliens Made Them Do It, Cliche Fic, First Time, PWP
Pairing: Jack/Daniel
Rating: NC17
Warnings: None
Spoilers: None

Notes: A straight-forward Cliche fic, and I love a good Aliens Made Me Do It fic, I think they're one of my favorites.  There's not much more to say about this one, except that it's hot as hell, but way too short!  I love shalott's fic.  She's a very talented writer.

Jack and Daniel are being forced to have sex, in order to save Teal'c's life.  They flip a coin to see who bottoms, and Jack loses.  Daniel takes over.

Excerpt:

( Daniel steered him over to the bed )
