I made a poll! It is not about porn. I know, I am surprised, too.

Here are some recs for you this fine July 4th! First, there is
Price of Distance by
nos4a2no9, which is a really lovely and evocative futurefic. It's loving and painful and honest, all at the same time, and it's poetic and descriptive in a way I would have thought would bore me (I have a short attention span) but which she makes
work, absolutely beautifully.
Second rec is more general, because -- dude, you guys have all been reading
arrow00, right? Her first dS story was posted in January, and the last six months have been totally productive. A new writer, writing in your favorite pairing, writing often, and writing really well? Seriously, is that not the most exciting thing in the world? I really admire how
fresh the voice is in these stories; it feels like a new angle, a new version, and it adds an extra depth and characterization to the stories, even ones that are more or less PWPs.
