Title: A Companion by Any Other Name by LilyK
Fandom: The Sentinel
Pairing: Jim/Blair
Categories: AU, drama
Length: medium
Warnings: n/a

Review:
A Sentinels-are-known AU, where Companions (Guides) are trained and then enter into a contract with a Sentinel. Jim picks Blair (of course), but the Blair Sandburg of this story is not the Blair we're used to and Jim can tell something is wrong. Can he find the real Blair Sandburg, or will he be stuck with this nice, quiet, frustratingly amenable Companion forever?

Sentinels-are-known AUs that don't incorporate some form of slavery are few and far between, so I always get super-excited when I see one. LilyK's version is excellent -- Companions sign an employment contract with their Sentinels, one that can be broken if either party mistreats the other. You also have an interesting mystery when it comes to Blair's behavior; it was a bit jarring the first time I read this story, but during the re-read it made a lot of sense (and made me want to hug him to bits). Jim is also well-done; he's a bit gruff and no-nonsense, but he also knows that Blair is an employee and potentially a friend and he treats him with kindness and respect. In fact, my only issue with this story is that it's a bit bare bones, especially at the end, but by now you all know that my most common complaint is that stories aren't long enough. A well-done, enjoyable Sentinels-are-known AU.

Depth Perception by The Grrrl (NC-17)

Bonus rec!

Title: Depth Perception by The Grrrl
Fandom: Stargate Atlantis
Pairing: McKay/Sheppard
Categories: Humor, Drama, Smut, Fluff, Romance
Length: Long
Warnings: n/a

Review:
John and Rodney crash land on a planet, discover that they like each other, and have lots and lots of sex.

As you can tell by the fact that the angst tag is used more than any other genre tag, I like angst. A lot. (As long as there's a happy ending, of course.) On the other hand, sometimes it's nice to take a break from all of the angst and just enjoy a nice fluffy romance, which is exactly what this story is. Boys having fun, lots of laughter, copious amounts of sex, and just a dash of emo to give the story a bit of flavor. Great for anyone looking for a light, fast, enjoyable read.
