Recs: February 2012

1.) In The Land Of The Blind by entangled_now at libraryofsol (R)    Sherlock's been acting strangely for days. There's a claustrophobic silence to the flat, experiments tossed aside or abandoned, cases ignored. It's almost as if nothing matters any more. John's determined to know why.

2.) These Lines of Lightening by Handful of Silence (T)    AU. Ever since he was born, John has been able to perceive people's auras. So he can see straight away that there's something special about Sherlock Holmes. John/Sherlock, Mystrade.

3.) Mission Accomplished by [info]beer_good_foamy  (R) The first, last and hardest duty of all Watchers. Buffy has been dead for 24 hours, and there is nothing more for Giles to do... no, wait, he has one last job. One last mission to send his Slayer on.  There is definitely a tissue warning with this one.  I absolutely love how the author skip between the teacher at the Council to Giles getting Buffy ready.  It is simply a beautiful fic.  Warning: character death (post-Gift)

4.) The Ghosts That Haunt Me 1, 2, 3 by [info]labyrinth_01 (PG-13)  Brenda reveals her painful past to Fritz.  I always wanted to know more about Brenda past relationship.  She seemed to act like she had been hurt several time by men.  Labyrinth does a wonderful job of exploring Brenda hypothetical past. There is sequel called Penance, Past and Present (PG-13) that you can find at [info]closer_fic .  Warnings: rape, domestic abuse
