Rating: Explicit [NC-17]

Summary: Steve’s determined Danny’s going to be prepared next time.

Recommendation: So it started out as a safety issue, but devolved quickly into sexy shenanigans. Hot damn, Danny with a thigh holster, yes please.

Title: Smooth Dog

Author: Cattraine

Canon: Hawaii Five-0

Pairing: Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams

Rating: Not Rated [R]

Word Count: 10,819

Summary: Werewolf Steve meets stubborn Human Danny.

Recommendation: Oh my God, this was so cute! Utter crack, but cute. I think Steve makes a really good wolf, and I love the notion that his mom is boss bitch. His pack/team was interesting and I thought is was great how enchanted with Grace they were, never mind how enchanted Steve was with Danny.

Title: Jaws

Author: JoeLawson

Canon: Hawaii Five-0

Pairing: Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams

Rating: Teen [PG]

Word Count: 9,487

Summary: Danny has a secret.

Recommendation: Holy crap, this was so freaking awesome. Even just the thought of a megalodon is seriously terrifying never mind one that coming up from below you. I really can’t fault Steve for reacting like he did.

Title: Home Is the Sailor, Home from the Sea

Author: laceymcbain

Canon: Hawaii Five-0

Pairing: Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams

Rating: Teen [PG]

Word Count: 7,257

Summary: “You know,” Danny starts, “when you said ‘home,’ I kind of assumed you meant you had a place here, or a boat to go back to, or you know, something other than an active crime scene.”

Recommendation: This was just loveliness. Danny being oh so sweet to the (emotionally and physically) wounded Steve and Steve leaning on Danny and making him feel needed. And Grace being a balm on these two damaged souls with her cuteness.

Title: Absolute Beginners

Authors: lamardeuse & thegrrrl2002

Canon: Hawaii Five-0

Pairing: Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams

Rating: Explicit [NC-17]

Word Count: 3,318

Summary: Steve sees Danny surfing, and the rest is history.

Recommendation: Nothing quite turns Steve’s crank like Danny surfing, or swimming, or pretty much doing any island recreation. Steve just really wants Danny to love Hawaii, and to get into his pants.

Title: I’ll Find My Way ‘Cause It’s Love Real Simple

Author: Finduilas

Canon: Hawaii Five-0

Pairing: Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams

Rating: Explicit [NC-17]

Word Count: 6,294

Summary: Steve asks Danny to move in with him.

Recommendation: This fandom is rife with domestication fic, but that is hardly surprising given how married these two are even when they are entirely platonic. I have to admit to liking it better when they’re not platonic like in this story though.

Title: Love’s a Battlefield (And the Navy Did Not Train Steve for This Shit)

Author: cyerus

Podficcer: librarychick_94

Canon: Hawaii Five-0

Pairing: Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams

Rating: Explicit [NC-17]

Word Count: 12,668

Summary: The Kalakaua-Kelly clan are determined to matchmake Steve. Out of desperation, Steve makes up a boyfriend named Danny. It doesn’t quite go according to plan.

Recommendation: I didn’t think that Steve and Danny could meet in a more ridiculous way than the one in the show, but boy was I wrong. All joking aside though this was awesome. Kono’s mom is seriously scary. Steve is bad at life, Danny is bad at saying no to Steve and Kono and Chin are more wonderful than Steve deserves.

Title: Ho’oponopono

Author: ember_firedrake

Canon: Hawaii Five-0

Pairing: Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams

Rating: Explicit [NC-17]

Word Count: 17,092

Summary: Groundhog Day AU. Danny finds himself trapped in the same day over and over again.

Recommendation: I just love the extra island flavor ember_firedrake added to this marvelous trope-y goodness. It also pleases me that even though Danny goes through dozens of repetitions of the day he never says “fuck it” and doesn’t call in the bank robbery, he always makes sure it’s taken care of. I just love that.

Canon: Hawaii Five-0

Pairing: Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams

Rating: Explicit [NC-17]

Word Count: 19,886

Summary: If it ain’t broke, fix it anyway.

Recommendation: An exercise in homemaking that’s really more of subversion of sexual and emotional needs, while everybody else is just shaking their heads at how dense these two are.

Title: Put Your Mind At Ease

Author: eleanor_lavish

Canon: Hawaii Five-0

Pairing: Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams

Rating: Explicit [NC-17]

Word Count: 5,737

Summary: Somewhere in the last year, while Steve was busy killing bad guys, Don’t Ask Don’t Tell has been erased from the books and guys like Jeff can marry whoever they damn well please.

Recommendation: Steve is one big bag of manpain.

Rating: Explicit [NC-17]

Word Count: 3,024

Summary: Chin and Kono stare at them bemusedly, as they always do, and then Chin says, “Wow, man, you really are his work-wife.”

Recommendation: Steve and Danny exemplify the trope ‘they really are married and don’t know it’.

Title: Lost at the Edge of the Sun

Author: james

Podficcer: RevolutionaryJo

Canon: Hawaii Five-0

Pairing: Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams

Rating: Teen [PG]

Word Count: 24,477

Summary: Living in Hawai’i is expensive, especially when you’re still paying a mortgage on a house back in Jersey. When things get to be too much, Danny has to make a hard decision. The hardest part is keeping the rest of the team from finding out that he’s homeless.

Recommendation: So usually I look to H50 stories for light-hearted or actiony stories, but this one, while not really angsty, is a more poignant and thoughtful offering. It illustrates so well that very often people who find themselves homeless are actually employed, but are in difficult circumstances anyway.

Title: Moving In (To Every Single Aspect of Danny’s Life, Including the Boring Bits Like Dry-Cleaning)

Author: westgirl

Podficcer: librarychick_94

Canon: Hawaii Five-0

Pairing: Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams

Rating: Teen [PG]

Word Count: 9,688

Summary: It felt wrong for Steve to sound unsure of his place in Danny’s life. His place in Danny’s life was at Danny’s side, driving him slowly insane. Steve should feel secure about that.

Recommendation: I’m just endlessly delighted with Danny’s names for Steve’s faces, and Steve’s wooing by attrition. The term ‘stealth-marrying’, just dies.
