Pick Your Fics for Fic Rec Week

[lordvalerymimes.livejournal.com]

So here's the rules:

1. I fic per author, so no choosing two fics by the same author, I know that will be difficult, but I feel it's the only way for it to be fair.

2. First person to "claim" a fic that they want to rec, gets to be the one to rec it, so post your recs here in the comments to get first dibs. :-)

3. You can rec one fic per day over the course of the week, so seven in total from everyone. I figure that will keep the numbers low enough that people aren't overwhelmed with tons of fics to read.

4. It would be nice if everyone could post a brief synopsis, and why you're recommending each fic.

5. Put warnings on fics that are Explicit, just so people have a heads-up.

6. If you're doing this on Tumblr, please post using the tag RDFicRecWeek

7. Obviously you can't rec one of your own fics. :-)

Ok, I think that's it? I figure we can start posting on Monday the 7th. Everyone else ok with the rules and timeframe? :-)

Argh, so hard to choose!

1. Three Million Years and Counting by Diminua
2. Double Trouble by Felineranger
3. Those Games We Play by Kronette
4. Trouble in Paradise by Janamelie
5. Pacific Rimmer by VeronicaRich
6. Light Bondage by Saylee
7. Autonomic Functions by Notalwaysweak

I have a question: Some of these have sequels. Should we include them in recs, or should they be considered separate stories for our purposes?

[lordvalerymimes.livejournal.com]

If there are directly connected sequels, I'd say it's fair to mention them as well. :-)

Sorry to be awkward, but what about remixes by other authors? Can we mention those in addition to the fic itself? Generally there'll be a link at the end of the fic in question so we probably wouldn't end up posting loads of links which would obviously defeat the purpose a bit.

I think mentioning is fine, because yes, like you mentioned those fics will already be linked to on AO3. :-)
