there's nothing quite as cathartic as crying over a good story

Still hanging out in the Dark Angel end of town :) And because I was asked for some recs/links, here we go:

Alec/Ames White

Yeah, I know. It shouldn't work. But I've found two (only two *sob*) stories where the author makes it work so well it's incredible.

Alive - by runedgirl (the Lynsey half *g*)

This is a stunning piece of fiction. It's hot, twisted, angsty, painful; an absolutely beautiful story. *draws hearts around it*

Chimera - by jaguarcaine. (Note: Mpreg)

Also an incredible story that will break you apart and then put you back together again. And hell, if Manticore could make Gill Girls and Lizard Men, why not men who could get pregnant?


Sam/Alec (xover with Supernatural)

Nine Lives, Cat's Eyes - by veronamay. This is hot like fire, but it's threaded with bittersweet and tears. My favorite of the Sam/Alec stories.

Pillars of Salt - by crazywritinfool. This is the first of two stories in a (sadly) unfinished series; the link takes you to the part one of story one.

Sam's pain from missing Dean is a palpable, physical thing all through the story.

Until Morale Improves, the Beatings Will Continue - also by crazywritinfool. This is the second story in the Pulseverse.

Me and My Shadow - by rivers_bend. Awesome, awesome Alec-voice. Hot, sexy, bittersweet.

Mortal Wounds - by thecoinbikini. Small bit of what was supposed to have been a larger/longer story; I don't think the author ever finished it, unfortunately.

Another Looking Glass and it's sequel, The Broken Mirror - by albydarned. The first is Sam/Dean/Alec; the second is primarily Sam/Alec.

*sighs* And this concludes our tour through Kim's favorite (slash) Dark Angel and Dark Angel/Supernatural stories. I have some Max/Alec stuff bookmarked on Delicious; just look for the pairings. (I have to be in a certain mood to read Max/Alec, and I haven't read any in a while.)

Hope y'all enjoy--and for god's sake, if anyone sees this and knows of some that I've missed, PLEASE let me know :)

I have to say.... I love Dark Angel and DA/SPN... I did try the Alec/Ames but I'm not that big of a fan...

actually ironically I kind of like Logan/Alec. I just don't like Max at all unless she's paired with Alec (and then her character has to be given realistic growth out of the 'bitch' mentality).
