Read some good TSCC fic lately? Post a link here so we can all enjoy it. Okay... till I manage to sort the smut on my hard drive from the non-smut, these are three that are safe for all! White Rabbit by irony_rocks (PG-13) irony-rocks.livejournal.com/458404.html A fabulous Sarah-centric twist on TSCC/Salvation somehow managing to come full circle back to Born to Run which is no mean feat. There's a sequel planned. A Jack Knifed Juggernaut (I am born again) by arenotvalid (PG-13) arenotvalid.livejournal.com/10392.html#cutid1Funny, thoughtful insight into Cameron and her place/role within the Connor household that manages to stay true to the characters. No Rest for the Wicked (WIP) by inspectorboxer inspectorboxer.livejournal.com/34042.htmlBit wary about reccing a WIP but this is 9 parts in so there's plenty to be getting on with and it's all good. A Firefly cross-over that's heading towards Sarah/River and is currently set at a PG13ish rating (will probably head upwards eventually!) Well worth reading; the Firefly characters are spot on and Sarah's backstory is slowly being drawn to the fore. It's funny, sweet and taking shape very nicely. If you enjoy them and you're on lj, remember feedback = happy authors.

Works by cj2017:(A word of warning: CJ is a paramedic, so if you happen to be squeemish, you are warned. Characters in this show do get beaten up on a regular basis, their injuries and treatment are just not as often described so... realistically?) Under The Influence: (Rating: PG-13) (Word Count: Approx 3k) - Episode continuation following The Good Wound. Watching, Not Sleeping: (Rating: PG-13) (Word Count: Approx. 3.7k) - Episode continuation following Some Must Watch, While Some Must Sleep. Never a Good Day: Part 1 - Part 2 - Part 3 - Part 4 - Part 5 - Part 6 (Rating: Hard PG-13, mucho bad language, discussion of adult themes, violence) (Word Count: Approx. 21k) - Mildly AU. Best described by Author's conversation with herself: “I’m bored… oh I know, I’ll throw Sarah and Derek down an embankment…” Works by indiefic_scc: Keep the Home Fires Burning: (Word Count: 1,564) - Pre-pilot to early in the pilot. Sarah blames herself for John never having a chance at a normal life. Explanations: (Word Count: 620) - Derek comes to a realization about just what Kyle meant to Sarah. It's a Wonderful Life: (Word Count: 650) - A kick off to a series of post Born to Run vignettes (All worth the read). This Derek doesn't know John Connor. __________ I'll pull up more when I'm less tired. littleb, I'm in the same boat as you with the sorting XD. Some I'm not including though just because they're rated teen or R or what have you for reasons other then smut! Others... are, well, outright smut. Time for a rec thread on the subboard!

Few more, one brand new on the interwebz, one I've had for a while and two faves from a familiar face... Breath and Shadow by ana_grrl (PG) ana-grrl.livejournal.com/239987.htmlCan't really say too much about this one without spoiling it. It's a post Born to Run fic and it's really quite lovely. When The Thunder Hits the Ground by lily_268 (PG-13) community.livejournal.com/lilies_pad/43085.htmlAnother post Born To Run ficlet, featuring John and Savannah. Short, sharp and with a snap-shock at the end. Well Deserved Oblivion by castellan craft castellan-craft.livejournal.com/877.html#cutid1Can't ever go wrong with Sarah getting a bit worse for wear on the booze and swapping scar stories with Charley... this is funny, sweet, touching and there's a cameo from Pugsley. Nuff said. Seven Days in Pescadero by castellan craft (PG-13) castellan-craft.livejournal.com/577.html#cutid1Quite a tough read in that it deals with Sarah's experiences in Pescadero but it's a read that's well worth while. Anyone who wants to do their own mooching about for fic: community.livejournal.com/scc_fic is an archive with plenty to be going on with. Feedback is your friend...

One new one to add. This just in from indiefic who is one of the best TSCC fic writers out there... Coydog (teen) by indiefic indiefic-scc.livejournal.com/12835.htmlIt's set post Born to Run with John, Kyle and Derek. John might have found his perfect scenario of anonymity with most of his family around him, but the future post-apocalypse is pretty bleak...

Thought I'd update these with some recs of recent stories and a couple I missed first time out... these are just personal faves, feel free to add your own (cos mine're pretty much all gonna have a Sarah-bias!) Orchestration of One by Devra www.fanfiction.net/s/5451177/1/Orchestration_of_OneA fill-in-the-blanks piece based around the story Sarah tells Charley in To The Lighthouse. "One day John got sick. I didn't know what was wrong with him and I had no savings." The characterisation is lovely, adding another layer to the back-story just hinted at in the show. Out on the Wire by LithiumDoll www.fanfiction.net/s/5178277/1/Out_On_The_WireA post- Born to Run WIP. John's not having such a great time in the future and Sarah's meeting with unexpected sort-of-allies in the present. Even though it's unfinished, there's already loads of great writing to get your teeth into. It's a Wonderful Life by indie indiefic-scc.livejournal.com/tag/series:iawlAlready been mentioned, way back when. And worth mentioning again because a hell of a lot has been written since! The link is to the main site for all the parts written to date. Post- Born to Run and just totally awesome. Of All The Bad Habits by castellan craft www.fanfiction.net/s/5266402/1/Of_All_The_Bad_Habits I love Derek/Sarah H/C and this is post- Samson & Delilah H/C with a prickly Derek, an even pricklier Sarah and some really lovely writing for the both of them. Two older fics that I missed first time out: Fewer Than You Think by danahid danahid.livejournal.com/8858.htmlDerek and John head out on their own to try and find the Turk and nothing quite goes to plan. The plot is incidental, the writing for the characters is spot-on. Fall Through the Night by danahid danahid.livejournal.com/9706.htmlAnother character piece, this time focusing on Sarah. It's not the happiest of reads, but it is well worth taking the time.
