Trying again, since the cat posted my entry before I was ready...

Title: Deserted
Author: nos4a2no9
Pairing: Fraser gen
Rating: PG13
Length: a little over 1k
Why I'm reccing this fic: because Nos is absolutely a wonder with words and shows us a young Ben Fraser who's never left the far north, who has no idea what the hot sand would feel like between his toes, who has no idea what the rushing murmur of the waves sounds like, has no clue how salty the air smells. A Ben Fraser who is defined and limited by his environment, but who sometimes secretly dreams of more.

Deserted

Title: Rain
Author: luzula
Pairing: Fraser gen
Rating: G
Length: Under 300 words
Why I'm reccing this fic: because it's Fraser totally out of his environment, again. And it's fascinating to watch him observe this new place, to see the desert bloom, through his eyes and his imagination.

Rain

Title: Red Light, Green Light
Author: arrow00
Pairing: Fraser/Kowalski
Rating: NC17
Length: almost 5k
Why I'm reccing this fic: because it's arrow00, for god's sake. Isn't that enough? Oh, hmm. Well, arrow00 is one of the best writers around and this story always makes me think of hot, humid days in Chicago. It's a story of discovery, a story about garden gnomes and cool, soothing baths, a story about heatstroke and sexual heat and love. *fans self* And it's hotter than hell, like 99.9999% of arrow00's stuff is.

Admin: New Challenge

[dessert-first.livejournal.com]

Happy summer, everyone!

While your flighty mods have been daydreaming of the beach, our Amnesty challenge is now over, and it's time to kick off something new. It's time for the Summer Challenge. Rec us your favorite fanworks that take place in or make you think of those sultry summer days. Did Fraser dare to don a swimsuit at a local pool? Did Frannie go to summer camp as a kid? Did Elaine have a job over the break after school let out? Did Vecchio romance Stella in a little hideaway in Florida? Did Kowalski learn to swim? Tell us about it!

You have until next Monday. Have fun!
