Presumed to be awesome.

I didn't get these up last week and there was a flood of awesome fic written after "Original Song," so now I have a huge backlog of bookmarked fics to rec. I'm just going to start dumping them here without much commentary -- you can safely assume that if it's listed here, there's something there to love. Happy reading! :)

( Glee: Kurt/Blaine )


( Glee RPF: Chris & Darren (Gen Friendship Fic) )


( Glee RPF: Chris/Darren )

Ok, I'm not even going to dissimulate any longer. Yes, I'm shipping Darren and Chris. What of it? It's really not even my fault. How can I possibly resist when some of my favorite writers from other fandoms (*coughmiss_begoniacough*) start flooding my flist with fabulous and amazingly written Chris/Darren fics??? I'm just a helpless victim here, people!!! *g*

Since we're not pretending otherwise anymore, I'm determined to get more of you to join me in this very pretty handbasket destined for hell. So, here are some fabulous Chris/Darren fics to tempt y'all to the dark side. *beams*

( Glee RPF: Chris/Darren )

I've been reading a lot of Hawaii Five-O fic recently. Some of these are older, because they've been sitting in my "to read" folder for a while, but they were all thoroughly enjoyable!

( H5O: Steve/Danny )

I love reading Steve/Danny, but a little Chin Ho in my fic wouldn't go amiss. I don't even care who he's paired with. Chin Ho is like the little black dress of the island -- he'd go great with anyone! The only problem? I can't find any Chin Ho fic!!!! *woe* So, if you know where the Chin Ho fic is hiding, please tell me! *begs prettily*

Now, back to the recs...

( AI RPF: Kris/Adam )

( Glam RPF: Adam/Tommy )

( Glee: Kurt/Blaine )

For your weekend reading pleasure, some fic recs!

( Kris/Adam )

OMG it's only Monday and this week is already completely CRAZYCAKES!!! Thankfully, it's mostly the good kinda crazycakes. (Although, if y'all can send some positive thoughts my way tomorrow around noon, I'd appreciate it. I'm having to deal with the ex-boss continuing to be an unmitigated jackass, so, you know, good juju would come in handy.)

Anyway, GOOD CRAZINESS!!! Let's talk about that some more! I've got a to do list that's about a mile long, and it all needs to be done in the next two days! Ahhhh!!! But just as soon as all those important items like "paint nails," "color hair," "buy lots of alcohol and chocolate snacks," and "OMG PACK FOR L.A." get crossed off my list, then it means that I'm finally on my way to L.A. for what is sure to be an AMAZING long weekend of DAMN GOOD TIMES!!! Eeeee!!! ADAM FUCKING LAMBERT!!!!! And DARREN CRISS!!!! And MONTE PITTMAN!!!!!!! And some of my most favorite people on the planet!!!!!! And glitter! And drinking! And doing fun L.A. touristy things! And laughing and talking and just having fabulously good times!!! Man, I cannot adequately state how much I need this trip right now. My mental health has been a tenuous thing lately, and I'm totally counting on just getting away, not stressing for a few days, and just having a damn good time in order to regain my grasp on my zen.

Like I said, SO MANY GOOD THINGS THIS WEEK! Like Adam! ( Who manages to wear the fuck out of a completely ridiculous pair of sparkly, zebra-striped pants. )

Also, I may not have mentioned this, oh, in the past 24 hours or so, but I'm completely smitten with one Darren Criss!!! *heart eyes* And I get to see him play this weekend! Twice! I may just die of the concentrated adorableness!!!

( No, really, it may be too much presh for me to handle! )

So, since we're talking about faces that make me happy, I think it's been well established that Chris Colfer is all that is precious and adorable in this world and his face does, indeed, make me happy. ( BUT WAT IS THIS CRAZINESS??? )

There's also this picture of a nearly pantsless Tommy that Isaac tweeted this morning, but I just don't have words to talk about this right now. *g* Feel free to discuss amongst yourselves, though.

I've been reading tons of Kurt/Blaine fic. Like most new fandoms/pairings, there is quite a bit of dreck being posted. Thankfully, y'all have ME to wade through it all and bring you the good stuff! *beams*

( Kurt/Blain fic recs )

( Darren Criss sings Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas! (Awesome Holiday Song of the Day) )

Ok, now that we have so many good things to roll around in, I'm going to go wade through my insane To Do list, and flail a bit more about L.A. IN TWO DAYS!!!!!! *bounces*

Still cleaning out my "Awesome Fics to Rec" folder. These are all longer fics of the Kris/Adam variety. Enjoy!

( Kradam Fic Recs )

Ten Kradam recs for your Sunday reading pleasure!

Like the Music You Play by lizziebethc
Kris/Adam | Explicit | 23,262 words
Kris shows up on Adam's tour, and decides to stay. I'm usually wary when an author discloses that whatever you're about to read is their first fic, but I'm so glad I went ahead and read this anyway. This is such a thoroughly satisfying read: great characterizations, perfect pacing and story development, solid writing. It may be her first, but I certainly hope it wasn't her last!

Electricity Sparks Inside of Me by condancer
Kris/Adam | NC-17 | 41,873 words (written for kradambigbang
Kris Allen, high school orchestra teacher, meets Adam Lambert, high school drama/choral teacher. Sparks fly… and the rest is in the story. So enjoyable!

Just Listen by kissoffools
Kris/Adam | PG-13 | 10,045 words
“No one ever picks up on me, that’s the thing. I’m always the one doing it. Maybe if someone would step up to the plate and ask me out for once… I wish they would.” An AU in which Kris is a college barista, Adam works for a gay magazine, and all Kris really wants is that first date.

Tuesdays at Manny's by LittleMousling
Kris/Adam | Explicit | 29,883 words
After years of working to break into the music industry, Adam is starting to let his bill-paying waiter job become more like a career. And then American Idol winner Kris Allen comes into his restaurant. This may be one of my favorite Kris/Adam stories ever! In fact, I think I may just have to read it again today just because I can!

Only Fools Rush In by kissoffools & wakeyourheart
Kris/Adam | PG | 5,158 words
There are a lot of little moments that lead up to the moment when a man proposes... and Kris remembers them all. This will melt your heart! Adorable!

The Bowl by jerakeen
Kris/Adam | PG-13 | 1,700 words
Gummi Bears! Or, more precisely, Kris and Adam AS gummi bears! Don't try to understand it -- just go read. I promise it's both ridiculous and amazing!

sings the song without words by astolat
Kris/Adam
A fusion with Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy; I had this tab open forever and hadn't read it because I'm only marginally familiar with the source material. But it doesn't really matter, because either way this story is FABULOUS!

Which None May Buy by solvent
Kris/Adam | NC-17 | ~23,000 words
Regency-style Harlequin AU, arranged marriage. Delightfully fluffy and fun!

Take Up Serpents by abusing_sarcasm
Kris/Adam | R | ~1,700 words
This is dark and a bit disturbing, but the language and the imagery are strangely and starkly beautiful.

Friends With Benefits by cynnet
Kris/Adam | R | 26,500 words
Adam is pretty horrible at being a personal assistant or receptionist, or whatever it is that he is, exactly. But that's okay, because Kris is pretty horrible at being a rock star.

Just in the last 24 hours I was reminded several times of how AMAZING my friends are, both in RL and online. They are wickedly smart, and incredibly generous, and amazingly talented, and fiercely authentic, and so inspiring, strong and courageous. And, just so we're clear, y'all are FABULOUS. *loves*

Ok, then. :)

Here, have some sparkly stuff:

:: An MP3 file of Adam's live cover of '20th Century Boy. I've had it stuck in my head on continuous loop for the past 20 hours! Not that I'm complaining or anything. *g*

:: A happy-making picture of Adam grinning like a fool at Tommy. Their FAAAAACES!!!

:: A truly amazing cover of KeSha's 'Take It Off' that is about two bazillion times better when Ke$sha is not involved! I had no idea I could love this song so much!

:: ( How 'bout some fic recs?!! )

This aptly summarizes just how freakin' hot it's been around here this week. (Link and laughs courtesy of without_me.) It also cracks me up. Probably because I'm currently sitting in my air conditioned office. As soon as I need to go outside, "featherless and golden brown and delicious" will cease to be amusing. Because NOTHING is amusing when it's approximately 10 degrees hotter than the ambient temperature of HELL. *melts. grumpily*

Speaking of NOT amusing: my laptop is still in ICU, which is, well no fun at all. My Computer Guy hasn't pronounced it dead yet, so I suppose there's still hope, but I'm getting really damn tired of not having my computer. *grumps some more*

But I do have some fic recs for y'all, which IS fun! *g*

White Collar
Time is of the Essence by mistresscurvy
Neal/Elizabeth/Peter || NC-17 || ~4,000 words
Established D/s relationship. Neal is late. Peter is not pleased. Elizabeth just wants to get on with it.
She absolutely nails the characterizations, and, dear heavens, people, this is just smoldering hot!

Adam Lambert
Practice Makes Perfect and Hard But Not Complicated by rivers_bend
Adam/Tommy || Teen & NC-17, respectively
Tour Fic: Adam and Tommy "practice" their stage-gay.

To Be Adorned by bexless
Adam/Brad || NC-17 || ~ 3,500 words
Adam recently got his nipples pierced. No really he did and I'm not even going to apologize for knowing that. Owning my shame, here, people. *g* Anyway, Adam. Nipples. Pierced. Add Brad and you know the result will be ridiculously hot, right?

Happy Friday!!!
