DPP - Fanfic is to shipping as ...

[nazkey.livejournal.com]

... Peanut butter is to jelly?

Now that we know why you all ship, let's get down to the serious business of fanfic, because really, what's a shipper without fanfic?

I know we've done this before, but I admit that as a relative newbie, I personally cannot get enough fic recs. Between fanfiction.net, LJ, AO3 and god knows how many other sites, this is a bottomless pit and I KNOW that there are some fics that haven't been rec'd before.

I am going to change it up a little bit though and provide some rules:

1. All rec's should be your own personal, absolute, 100% "go-to" fic. In other words, these are fics that you read and re-read often and please provide a brief explanation of why they are your fave/go-to fics.

2. All rec's must have a K/L ship and/or reference. Fics that are just about Kara or Lee are okay too. We are, after all, all about the Pilots here :-)

3. There are no limits to the number of fics you can rec. In fact, the more the merrier.

4. NO RPF's please (there's a reason for this rule ... trust me.)

5. WIP's are allowed.

6. Any and all ratings are acceptable. We're all consenting adults here ;-)

To help jog your memories a bit, I've come up with some standard categories here. You don't have to rec a fic for each category. They're just here as a guide.

1. Angst
2. AU
3. Crack
4. Crossover
5. Fluff
6. Funny/Humorous
7. Introspective
8. Pilot!Banter
9. Romance
10. Smut

**BONUS: What was the VERY FIRST fic you read that dragged you into the rabbit hole of the K/L ship?

I'll post my list at the end of the day because I'm almost positive all of my fave's are going to show up in your comments at some point :-)

So come on! Pull out your list of bookmarks and let the rec'ing begin!
