Writ Finer, by Carmarthen

[Shakespeare - Twelfth Night]

Title: Writ Finer
Author: [info]carmarthen
Summary: Olivia married Sebastian, but she wanted Cesario.
Characters/Pairing: Olivia, Sebastian, Viola
Rating: G

Why?

I've never been really satisfied by the resolution of Twelfth Night. Olivia fell in love with Cesario, and Sebastian wasn't quite the same thing. Here we have Olivia longing for Viola, while trapped in her life and the convention of the time. Beautiful language, as well.

Reach Out and Touch, by Shaggy

[Torchwood]

Title: Reach Out and Touch
Author: Shaggy [info]shaggydogstail
Summary: Perhaps if Jack hadn’t been so fixated on Ianto’s body, the recovery of his skin and the time it took him to stop favouring his left foot, he might have noticed the change in Ianto’s behaviour more quickly.
Characters/Pairing: Jack/Ianto
Rating: NC-17

Why?

A perfect take on both Jack and Ianto. Neither would let the Lisa matter go as easily as the show might want us to believe, and here's one possibility of what might have happened. Shower sex is hot, too.

[Torchwood]

Title: Excerpt from the Top Secret and Highly Classified Personal Shagging Records of Ianto Jones
Author: Shaggy [info]shaggydogstail
Summary: Ianto keeps meticulous notes of his sexual encounters.
Characters/Pairing: Jack/Ianto
Rating: NC-17

Why?

It's absolutely hilarious, featuring a highly anal-retentive Ianto and a slightly clueless but still hot Jack.

Six Uses For a Stopwatch That Have Nothing To Do With Sex (And One That Does), by Shaggy

[Torchwood]

Title: Six Uses For a Stopwatch That Have Nothing To Do With Sex (And One That Does)
Author: Shaggy [info]shaggydogstail
Summary: There's a lot you can do with a stopwatch.
Characters/Pairing: Mostly gen, with a bit of Jack/Ianto
Rating: PG

Why?

Shaggy writes humour very well, and this one's no exception. Some of the ficlets are hysterical, and the Jack/Ianto part is endearingly cute.
