FR: Yaoi Galore!

Yes, this is an actual JDrama.
I really want to make long yaoi fanfic recs posts. The first fanfic rec post I did was a oneshot with Johnlock and the other is ongoing which sorta counts as long but I want a long, long list. For that matter, I'm very harsh towards the ever growing population of such fics since I really can't find a decent fic without sexual intercourse involved. I prefer it subtle and hidden with undertones. Since the growing number kept on coming, I let myself be caustic. There are several cliches I kept seeing everywhere that doesn't work well in context of the characters or it's just shameless.

By the by, I only see yaoi/yuri when I think I can see it happen in some particular works.

I see this happening in the fanfic when the truth is revealed. Sorta.
First upWalk On In by Tainted Ink And Paper

Summary: AU. SuzaLulu. Lelouch had an odd habit of taking strays… especially unwanted ones. Suzaku, the Japanese biker who waltzes into his home without permission, comes with more baggage than he can handle... like the Black Knights, like Zero.

Review: This is the best SuzaLulu fic I had ever read. It tells an alternate story of canon but still remains a great fic. It hadn't been updated in awhile. It's most likely be deleted next year so read it quick! It's a great read to keep things canon while maintaining a respect for the characters. Things are just setting off.



A Skylark's Wings by TnM aka Touya no miko

Summary: At age 8, Hibari Kyouya has a run in with the past leader of Namimori's disciplinary committee.As he learns under the perfect, parts of his past are revealed, connecting to the Hibari we know in the present time. Hibari-centric, OC, and implied 1827

Review: Granted, it's more implied but it's still there. Remember we don't know anything about Hibari's backstory? This fanfic provides a great backstory why Hibari hates crowds, his catchphrase, his rampage in the Kokuyo Arc, his hatred for Mukuro, his er...refusal to be part of the mafia, and his willingness to protect Tsuna, his chain to sanity. It has some errors but doesn't detract from the story. The character Tsubasa, mentor and chairman of the Disciplinary Committee is very good and the world doesn't revolve around her. She's the woman of the house, taking care of her aunt and cousin but better than Iemitsu. It has great drama to keep it going.

It does look like a wedding photo.
The Adventure of the Unknown Number by Trillsabells

Summary: It was far from the first time Lestrade had received a text message from Sherlock Holmes that he had no idea what it was about, and it almost certainly wasn’t going to be the last.

Review: Small but sweet. John and Sherlock are getting married and Lestrade is Sherlock's best man. Except he didn't know that. It's sweet that Sherlock regards Lestrade highly and I like how Stamford is at least a part of this. He introduced the pair you know and just a plot device for the two to meet. Well, if you haven't met Stamford, John, then you wouldn't have recovered. It's small and sweet, nothing overdone.

A Deduction of Love by welovethebeekeeper:

Summary: We know the legacy left by of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s characters in our world, but what if John and Sherlock of 2010 had been the first Holmes and Watson? What would their legacy be? 120 years in the future a reflection of their lives and legacy.

Review: Short and sweet. History and canon are placed well in this place. It say exactly on the tin and it's a wonderful read.

More to come!
