Story: First Snow in Kansas
Author: [livejournal.com profile] little_swirl
Rating PG
Author's summary: A Hilltop Café patron watches the newly returned DG's interactions with two strange customers.
Characters/pairing: Cain/DG
Warnings: [none]

Recced because: Again, one from the early days of the fandom before I crashed the party and became one of the Three Musketeers, even! This is a bit of a what-if... and I'm still not sure exactly what happened between the fade to black and the opening of the story... perhaps all Lady Swirl needs is some poking and prodding.

She also responds to blueberry pie. ;)

So, I hear today gets two...

Have I mentioned how much love I have for [livejournal.com profile] tm_challenge? Really?

The prompt:
"I'm gonna run a bath. If you'd like a shot at jumping my bones you should be naked by the time the bath tub's full."

The result:
Story: Splish Splash
Author: [livejournal.com profile] golden_goddess
Rating: PG-13
Author's summary: It's amazing how one tiny comment can completely change the course of events for two people.
Characters/pairing: Cain/DG
Warnings: no warnings, just enjoy!

Recced because: DG puts Cain on the spot and WOOF.

Story: Flip Flop
Author: [livejournal.com profile] golden_goddess
Rating: PG-13
Author's summary: The flip side of "Splish Splash". What goes through Cain's mind as he's been given the ultimate gift?
Characters/pairing: Cain/DG
Warnings: no warnings, just enjoy!

Recced because: Cain's thoughts, from the other side of the door.

You can also find both of them, together, HERE at [livejournal.com profile] tinman_fic

#1 I heart [livejournal.com profile] golden_goddess and she knows it.
#2 I love multi-POV fics like whoa
#3 The idea of Wyatt Cain uttering the words "jumping bones" makes me happy.

You'll take what you get, gang. Cain/DG = I ship it. *nods*

Rec: "Unstable Atmosphere" & "The Long Way Home"

Jan. 6th, 2009 01:53 pm
[identity profile] n-e-star.livejournal.com
It's Two-fer Tuseday, YEY!

Story: Unstable Atmosphere
Author: Cricket
Characters, Pairing: Cain, Jeb, OC, and DG. Cain/DG implied.
Rating: PG-13
Summary: Cain copes with approaching storms beyond his control.

Recced because: Of this bit here...
"You skipped a part," Lily interjected.

"I did?" Jeb asked, amused that she would correct his storytelling. She was precocious and stubborn, both attributes surely stemming from DG.

"Yeah, you're supposed to say that the tin man was the bravest, most handsome man the girl had ever seen and he promised to protect her always," Lily said matter-of-factly.

Jeb laughed and gave his father a pointed look. Cain looked away, lips flattening into a hard line as a blush crawled up over his cheeks.



Title: The Long Way Home
Author: Cricket
Characters, Pairing: Cain, Jeb, DG and OC. Established DG/Cain, one sided Jeb/DG.
Rating: PG-13
Summary: The continuation of Unstable Atmosphere. DG returns and the family is reunited.

Recced because:
It's more of an awesome story!!!

(no subject)

Sep. 9th, 2008 10:10 pm
[identity profile] n-e-star.livejournal.com
Story: Coronation
Author: Alexandra3
Rating: T
Author's summary: Everyone thought DG would be the perfect Queen of the O.Z. She wished she had their confidence. Series of stories chronicling DG's reign...and all the problems therein.
Characters/pairing: CDG.
Warnings: The author says "Flangst ahead!", I'm not sure what that means.

Recced because: The first chapter got me hooked. In most "D.G. hast to be queen!" stories D.G. whines, stamps her feet, and acts like a kid who is being punished.. But in this one she is a mature woman who seriously and soberly takes over the duties of caring for her people.

Rec: handfasting with the sky

Jul. 23rd, 2008 12:33 pm
ext_10637: (tin man - dg (mine is an emo pout))
[identity profile] kseda.livejournal.com
Story: handfasting with the sky
Author: stonecraft
Rating: G
Author's summary: The Princess has flown.
Characters/pairing: Azkadellia and DG, with bits of just about everyone else
Warnings: none

Recced because: There are so many possibilities for what happens to Az after the credits roll, and this is still my favorite dilemma and solution. Beautiful, lyrical, and plausible in the extreme, the loving bond between the sisters is given its due.

Rec: 15 Annuals

Jul. 21st, 2008 09:49 pm
ext_10637: (tin man - glitch-fu)
[identity profile] kseda.livejournal.com
Story: 15 Annuals (link goes to last chapter with links to the previous ones)
Author: [livejournal.com profile] luchia13
Rating: Varies by chapter, G to NC-17
Author's summary: Who needs Roboparents when a Queen's got an Advisor-Ninja to take care of their recently deceased daughter?
Characters/pairing: Glimbrose/Cain, but also has DG, Jeb, Raw, Az, and the win that is Hana
Warnings: graphic violence, graphic sex, and pure AU madness

Recced because: Know what the O.Z. needs more of? NINJAS. Take a day, read this, have your head screwed with, laugh, cry, boggle, demand a hit off whatever Lu is smoking. No, none of this is expressing the love I have for this fic. I was fresh and new in the fandom when the first chapter came out, and it shaped so many of my perceptions of the characters, and yes. AUs done right are wonderful, and this one is utter brilliance. And to think it started with a quick prompt on [livejournal.com profile] tinman_request...

ETA: Oh, oh! I finally settled on an excerpt! ( *draws hearts around Hana* )

Rec: Being A Grown Up

Jul. 13th, 2008 09:33 am
[identity profile] theredoormouse.livejournal.com
Story:Being A Grown Up
Author:Disturbed Muffin
Rating: G
Author's summary: Little DG makes some very grown up decisions.
Characters/pairing: DG-centric, but you could see some DG/Glitch if you liked.
Warnings: Mm, making you long for a teddy bear to cuddle? I know I did.

Recced because: I love DG's childhood with the Robo-rents and enough people don't go into it. Plus, it's so cute I swear I should probably warn for cavities. It's as cute as that teddy bear you really do cuddle.

Author: SacredNagChampa
Rating: T/PG-13

Characters/pairing: DG/Cain
Warnings: None

Recced because: The use of the back and forth in the timeline, seeing the end then learning how it came to be, is very well done.
