This has the same heart and subtle magic as the film "Kim" and the story it was based on, by Rudyard Kipling. Love it. <3

Summary
When an intern turns up dead at the Imperial War Museum under mysterious circumstances, PC Peter Grant and Inspector Thomas Nightingale find themselves on the case.
At first it seems like a straightforward enough matter, but things just aren’t adding up. The museum’s curator is acting oddly, and Nightingale’s past may be catching up to him quicker than he can outrun it...

Summary
"I was breathless with nerves and divided in my own mind. At one moment I was sure we could not continue as we had been. I must speak, or lose Holmes' trust by my silence. The next moment I felt I could never speak unless Holmes himself invited me to. Surely he must have recognized my affection; if he had not mentioned it, he would not wish me to."
The idea for this story partially inspired by Random_Nexus' beautiful The Bee Grove. Highly recommended: http://www.ao3.icu/works/8027908/chapters/18381751

This was immensely and beautifully brilliant. It's so much more than a simple 5+1, really, and left me smiling hugely with all the romantic warm fuzzies purring away inside. Well, 'romantic' in a Holmesian way, of course. ;D

Dan was deeply sorry for whatever he’d done in his life that had landed him in this mess, and also reasonably sure that despite all the shit he’d pulled in the last couple of years, he still didn’t deserve this.

Such a delightful Addam's Family AU!
Darkish, but in the same way some of the original stuff was. A fun read. -

Summary
When he opens his eyes, it's to Steve sitting in the grass in a park. There are rays of sunlight picking out individual glints of gold in his hair, and he has a crown of daisies, lopsided over one ear.
"You've got flowers in your hair, you mook," Bucky mumbles, and leans over to straighten them. Steve's hair is very fine; it catches on the stems of the flowers, on Bucky's fingers, and he has to go carefully to avoid breaking the looped chain. His fingers are warm, and Steve sighs a little in what sounds like pleasure when Bucky strokes his hair smooth.
"This isn't real," Bucky mutters, "it's just a dream."
"It's never just a dream," Steve says solemnly, "come on, why'd you bring me here, Sleeping Beauty?"

To snip a bit from my comments: Such wonderful ficcery, excellent storytelling. The feel of the scenes was so vivid and the 'fix' just dead clever!
I highly recommend this fic. It's awesome. -

I cannot recommend this highly enough! Like the best and most charming romance novel with two males instead of male/female. The characters are endearing, the story detailed enough to give you a feel for the world, but not overdone to the point of tedium; an excellent balance. I had all sorts of warm fuzzies after reading and will be reading this many times in the future.

Summary
“You – both of you?” She looks at Jarvis, who drags his gaze up with effort, cheeks brilliant now, but holds his chin steady as he looks at her.
“If you’ll have us,” Ana says, and Jarvis adds, in a murmur, “It would be our honor.” And, oh, that sends a funny little spark down Peggy’s spine, that quiet, serious tone and the way Jarvis’s eyes are darkened, looking at her like she’s something precious.
After the explosion at Isodyne, Edwin and Ana care for Peggy.

Summary
Solo is being a brat, has been a brat for too long, and Gaby - Gaby is tired of it.
"Solo," she snaps, "on your knees, right now," and for all his disobedience in the field, his deliberate ignoring of her very careful directions, he just raises one eyebrow now, drops easily to his knees on the polished parquet of this hotel suite.

BDSM flavored excellence here. Gaby's totally in charge and both Napoleon and Illya are clearly loving it. Delish.
