Title: Trust Falls and Probability Exercises

Canon: The Magnificent Seven
Pairing: Joshua Faraday/Vasquez
Rating: Not Rated
Word Count: 57,403
Summary: “Immediately, he realized that his hands were tied together in front of him, with barely an inch of give to the rope, and that there was a lingering pain that suggested he had been hit hard on the back of the head. It matched nicely with the throbbing ache in his leg, one that didn’t fade even when he managed to straighten it underneath him. More importantly, his guns, belt, hat, and cards were all gone. Great. Fantastic. Someone was definitely going to get shot for this.” Or, a post-canon AU where nobody died and also they have superpowers.

Recommendation: Everybody has superpowers! Well almost everybody but it all still set in the wild old west. Which is awesome. You should probably start with the first in the series, Look at My Hands, Don’t Look at My Hands, just to understand how everybody’s powers work and how that changes the outcome of the movie, but what I really liked about this story was that it was a whole new adventure for the seven. Well that and the growing relationship between Faraday and Vasquez too.

Title: Pretend We're in Love (The Heartache Still Hurts)
Author: InsaneJuliann
Canon: Iron Man/MCU
Pairing: James ‘Rhodey’ Rhodes/Tony Stark
Rating: Teen [PG]
Word Count: 51,894
Summary: Rhodey’s dad is dying, and what he’s always wanted is for Rhodey to be happily married. Tony and Rhodey were best friends, and haven’t spoken in years. But after a chance meeting at the airport, and a desperate, insane idea on Rhodey’s part, they end up pretending to be engaged. But how much of it is really pretend?

Recommendation: I feel the need to spell out the time frame of this one because I really couldn’t get a handle on it until like halfway through. Tony is 22 with Rhodey just a little older and in the military; Howard and Maria are still alive while the events of Iron Man are brought way forward. There that being said, this was so painful. Tony is just a sad ball of need so very in love while Rhodey is the most painfully oblivious guy in the history of ever, but his family is truly marvelous. I love them all especially his wonderful mother, but really the whole Rhodes clan is probably the best thing that ever happened to Tony.

Title: Kotov Syndrome
Author: Aetherdrive
Canon: Haikyuu!!
Pairing: Tooru Oikawa/Hajime Iwaizumi, Wakatoshi Ushijima/Kenjirou Shirabu, side of Issei Matsukawa/Takahiro Hanamaki, Yuutarou Kindaichi/Akira Kunimi
Rating: Mature [R]
Word Count: 50,023
Summary: Corruption is brewing in Seijou’s police force. Oikawa Tooru, the captain of Special Investigations, is put onto a case where he cannot afford to fail. But despite his best efforts, not everything goes according to plan. A standalone fic in the Buddy-cop AU series; reading the others isn’t necessary if you’d just like to read this one!
 
Recommendation: I’ve recommended another story in this series Crisis Converted, and it’s set in the same world without any recurring characters so I thought this one deserved it’s own recommendation. I thought that all the Aobajousai characters were spot on, especially Oikawa. I love the rivalry and slight antagonism between Aobajousai and Shiratorizawa that has to be overcome in order to solve the crime and save the day. Oikawa and Iwaizumi’s relationship is a beautiful thing, but so is the understated relationship between Ushijima and Shirabu. All in all a terrific read.
