Readers' Recs - Alternate Universe

Nov. 25th, 2013 at 7:24 AM

We've come to the end of AU theme week and would love to hear from you. Rec a fic in which some particular element or moment has been changed from canon, or in which your favorite characters have been transplanted to a coffee shop, spaceship, or anywhere else.

Recced stories can be any fandom and any pairing (or no pairing) as long as they match the theme. Fan art, podfic, and fan vid recs are also welcome.
You don't need to write a review (unless you want to). All that you need to include are title, author, and link to the story.
Fic or media as a single file are preferred, if available.

If you'd like to use our reccing template, you can find it under the cut.

Summary: The unique thing about Event Horizon, and something Rodney was quite proud of, was that the store itself was a physical representation of the mind of its owner. The filing system that had so amused Sheppard served a greater purpose. The problem was that Rodney hadn't yet figured out just what that purpose was. He only knew that he liked things a certain way. If one took a moment to piece the filing system together, they would realize that it told the story of one man, perched behind his counter, trying to fend off the world.

Review:
A fun AU where John owns a surf shop and Rodney owns a bookstore. John refuses to be put off by grumpy Rodney and is determined they become friends. John drags along the 'hoodlums', as Rodney puts it, that hang around John's shop. It's a fun fic with minimal angst.
