Old Fic & New Art rec

=> After checking the 225 H/D classics, I went through my personal faves. I found one that didn't make the list but ranks under my Top 10 H/D fics ever. I might be partial, because I adore Terry Pratchett's writing and this fic is similar, but I still think it is made of absolute awesome. It takes fandom clichés and heads the other way, which is enough reason for you to read it:

Clear as Mud by scoradh

=> Moving on to the art rec. It's R/S. It's bondage. It's simple yet utterly perfect. Coincidentally, it's also my new wallpaper *drools* I can not decide whom I find sexier in the pic; Remus or Sirius.

Wow, she's wonderful. I still have her "road less traveled" to read and am all kinds of excited about it.

Thanks :D

Heh, now you have me all interested, wondering about the stories of your top 5 ;)
Yes, there are definitely some missing. I just read clear as mud again on a whim, and damn, I love it so I couldn't resist :D

well, i wouldn't say that all of these stories are in my top 5 favorites of all time. but i do think that they are all stories that every h/d shipper should read and would easily make my top 20 of a list of that sort.

one of the hottest h/d smut fics of all time

the other hottest h/d smut fic of all time is "in hot water" by fiona_fawkes, but my computer isn't letting me access the link right now. it's on her LJ.

OMG, where have I been?! *flails* I haven't read In Hot Water and Open Surrender. I'm on my way now, thank you for these ♥

And thumbs up for the others, I loved them just as much. My fingers are actually itching now to make a list of "stories every h/d shipper should read".

Clear as Mud is such a lovely story. Make sure to suggest it on the poll that [info]gossymer and [info]sulky_rhino are preparing for any new and those left out "classics".

Bzuh? I thought I had replied to this days ago... Insanejournal is eating my comments :/

Thanks for giving me the heads up on the upcoming poll, I didn't know they were doing one. I actually found a whole bunch of one-shots which I consider classics. ;)

Don`t even get me started...I`m completely afraid of their limit to suggestions. I could put forward so many that fit into that category for me.
