Summary: Lassiter is alarmed at finding himself attracted to Spencer following the Drimmer incident. He visits a friend in San Francisco, looking for advice, but Spencer has tailed him. Lust overtakes them in the gayest city in the world, but can their relationship survive returning to Santa Barbara?

Review: Another media rec, this time hailing from the recent Amplificathon podfic spree on Dreamwidth. But kind of a fic rec as well!

I didn't and still haven't had chance to listen to much from Amplificathon, which produced new podfic at a truly scary rate, but I was drawn to this podfic by the bright cover and the promise of a Paul Simon soundtrack, even though it isn't a ship I normally go for.

This is such an exuberant reading I couldn't stop listening, and it absolutely brings the story to life. The recording quality is about as polished as I've heard podfic, and I love the usage of Paul Simon's Flowers Never Bend With The Rainfall for the soundtrack, and the echo to distinguish thoughts is nicely done, making it easy to follow in an audio format. The whole production seems to bounce along with the lighthearted spirit of the show and the ever-present slight inanity of the two main characters.

Summary:

The bad news is that one of Lassiter's highest profile arrests has just escaped from prison. The worse news is that his best hope of tracking him down is a sleep-deprived Shawn Spencer.

Review:

It's not every day that someone writes a thoroughly plotted out case file fic, and even more rarely does the mystery fit with the tone of the canon so well you're left wondering, 'Why isn't this an actual episode?'

The Dah-Ling Store-It-Yourself is an intricately plotted adventure that unfolds perfectly, with just the right amount of information laid out for the reader to follow along, and enough deeply embedded clues that, when certain conclusions are revealed at the very end, it's obvious to the reader that they weren't drawn from thin air. That isn't to say that there aren't certain improbable things, but nothing that falls beyond the realm of Psych's general outlandishness.

The characters introduced for the mystery are generally quirky and layered with complexity, even the ones the reader never meets face to face. Cyril Riner, Shawn's kidnapper-slash-client, is particularly endearing and quickly earns the reader's trust in spite of most of the cast's determined belief that he's guilty of murder.

Fascinatingly, there's a palpable sense of frustration amongst many of the cast directed squarely at Shawn for his recklessness and obstinate refusal to give lip service to even the idea of working cooperatively with the SBPD. This fic shows Shawn at his finest but also does not flinch from showing him at his most selfish. In fact the only major gripe I have with this fic is that Shawn is so stubbornly focused on getting what he wants that it becomes an almost deliberate blindness to any potential negative consequences. And when the opportunity arises for Shawn to see those very real consequences, the nixajane lets it pass on by. In the end, Shawn gets what he wants and everyone else gets to bow to his whims.

I haven't read the other stories in The Dah-Ling Series yet, but I definitely will. Spoiled boy getting his way aside, I wouldn't miss another of nixajane's Psych case file fics for the world.

Summary:
The BAU is called out to Santa Barbara on a case where Spencer Reid meets Shawn Spencer. Shawn helps put some things in perspective.

Review:
This story is a nice, enjoyable read. There is a case involved but, for me, it largely serves as a backdrop for Spencer and Spencer’s interactions and isn't the focal point of the story. Every time I read this story I find myself wanting a spinoff featuring Spencer and Spencer and Gus running Psych together and consulting on cases at the SBPD because of the dynamic between the two Spencers and the way they interact with one another.

So many Hotch/Reid fics are understandably dark that I appreciate this story even more just for its lightheartedness. The pining between Hotch and Reid and the constant furtive looks are sweet and charmingly innocent, reminiscent of a first love.

The only quibble I have with this story is that while overall the CM characters are well represented I feel that the Psych characters are pushed more to the sidelines, especially since a majority of the story takes place at the SBPD. However the times Gus is on the scene, I can literally hear the lines he’s saying because they sound as if they’re taken directly from the show itself.

Summary: After three weeks of sex, Shawn wants to broach the possibility of dating. His plans are complicated by the arrival of Lassiter’s brother.

Review: I was kind of iffy on the premise of the fic at first, but there were some absolutely fantastic lines from Shawn, Lassiter, and Gus - hilarious and exactly the kind of things you'd hear on the actual show. Lassiter's jealousy is very in-character, and it's interesting to see him with a brother who's his complete opposite in many ways (if you're vehemently opposed to OCs, you might not love this fic; Lassiter's brother Derek is based on "Lassiter's blog entry at the USA network website where he mentions having a brother who surfs" according to the author, but for all intents and purposes he's an original character.)

The only spoiler listed is for an episode from the second season, so don't expect this story to have anything to do with what's actually going on in the series at this point. However, if you want something with great Psych-style one-liners and situations, then this fic is perfect.

Review:
Uncle Jack comes back and somehow manages to cause even *more* trouble than before. Also, Lassiter is surprisingly sweet, Henry is surprisingly supportive, Gus comes surprisingly close to having a spine, and Jack is not so surprisingly an ass.

There aren't many long Psych fics out there, much less long, layered Psych fics that feature the entire awesome cast. I love the Shawn/Lassiter romance, which isn't the center of the story, but which adds a bit of sweetness. I love Henry, who is driven nuts by his son, but who loves him anyway. I love Juliet and Chief Vick, who didn't get much screen time, but who were perfect in every scene they were in. I love Shawn's relationship with Jack, even if I do want to beat Jack on the head. Most of all, however, I love the banter between Shawn and Gus, which sounds just like an episode of the show, except with Gus being even more awesome than he usually is.

In short, a great caper for fans of Psych.
