Week called on account of rain (aka it's time for recs)

Hey kids. Watching a new Gilmore Girls and a new House last night melted my brain and so I have some fic recs for you.

Firstly, because there's news on the horizon that GG will be renewed for season eight:

Just Mates Gilmore Girls, (Rory/Finn, NC-17) by [livejournal.com profile] girloftheq
Summary: When Logan's away...Finn and Rory are left behind.
Mhal says: I have a soft spot in my heart for Australian boys (oh, those summer days of yore) and enjoy everything Finn. Plus this is pretty hot.

Then, some crossover love:

The recovery of a sick man (SPN/Sandman) by [livejournal.com profile] vaznetti
Summary: Mary has no fear of death.
Mhal says: A bittersweet, melancholy look at Mary. Death has some of the most amazing lines. While short, this fits together so very well.

Finally, two House MD fics
Two series that are ongoing, by two authors that really get House's character. I squee whenever I see a new installment.

Family, Friends and Other Complications by [livejournal.com profile] namasteyoga (This is part 12, all former parts linked in the post)
Summary: Greg House, as seen through the eyes of James Wilson and Blythe House (mostly pre-series).
Mhal says: Even though the character only had three minutes of airtime, the author uses the character of Blythe House to examine Greg House. What makes this stand out to me is that Blythe doesn't really know House, but the person she does understand is Wilson. The weird symbiotic relationship between House, Wilson and Blythe is fascinating.

Essential Elements of Teamwork by [livejournal.com profile] asynca (This is linked to part 2.7, with the other links in the post)
Mhal says: The central characters are "Wilson/House/Cuddy", and the way the story is tending, I think those slashes are indicative. I love me a good OT3. At this point the story is House/Wilson, and it's hilarious. House has not been changed by the love of a good man, and Wilson is lusting after Cuddy like a burning thing on fire. But that's not nearly the whole story. This story makes me so happy. It's funny and intelligent and so wonderful. You should read it. Dear god, read it.


Anyone out there on the flist going to Norwescon this year? I've never been to a con before, but I've got a pal going and it's on my mind. Thoughts?

nope I'm going to ICON though. in like a week, i've never been to a con either it's for sci-fi fantasy I think. *shrugs* by the way think of this as a friendly poke...how goes inevitable? and what's up? haven't seen you around lately?

I've never gone to a con. I'm curious as to what goes on, plus I'm always willing to geek out.

Inevitable... I sigh. I'm working on it, I can say that much. I've been dealing with work stress and my life being a series of complications. But I have some free time coming up soon and I'm looking forward to that!

Thank you (again!) for the rec.

You're quite welcome, good fic needs to be read!

*groan*... I've heard this too, but I really hope not.
Please just let the series end gracefully...

it will never die. at this rate we'll get to see generation 4 (5?) of Gilmores once Rory and Logan start to spawn.

*hides*

Off topic comment, but I thought you, like me, would find this vastly interesting and tantalising (unless you already knew, in which case... it wouldn't be?):

Buffy season eight (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffy_the_Vampire_Slayer_season_eight)

yeah.

yeah. @_@
