[intrigueing]

FANDOM: Starsky & Hutch
FIC LINK: The Beginnings and Endings Series
AUTHOR LINK: kuonji14
RATING/WARNING(S): varies from PG-13 to NC-17, contains scenes of both statutory and violent rape
WIP?/WORD COUNT: 8 installments, 27,789 words total
MAIN CHARACTERS: Kenneth Hutchinson, David Starsky, OMC

FIC SUMMARY: A case taking a bad turn reveals a part of Hutch's past that he had thought long buried.

RECCER'S NOTES: My first rec here! It's a plot that's rarely tackled in gen fics, but this series is one of the best stories I've ever read about a character struggling to deal with and communicate his experience of child sexual abuse. It's subtle, sensitive, and thoughtfully-crafted, with a keen, sophisticated awareness of how to structure a scene. It's candid about sordid details and stigma, and contains breathtaking displays of intense affection and intimate observations and conversations between the two main characters that few authors have the maturity to portray in a platonic friendship.

FANDOM: Harry Potter
FIC LINK: try and hide the night
AUTHOR LINK: tosca1390
RATING/WARNING(S): PG-13
WIP?/WORD COUNT: one-shot | ~ 6,500 words
MAIN CHARACTERS: James Sirius Potter, Harry Potter, Ginny Potter, Albus Severus Potter, Lily Luna Potter

FIC SUMMARY: He wished someone would just tell him what was going on.

RECCER'S NOTES: We don't know much about the next generation characters, so every author can imagine them their own way. This is my favorite James Sirius so far, he really comes to life here. I love his view on what happened and happens. We see the adult characters (Harry, Ginny, Ron...) through his eyes, and while James is the central character we learn a lot about the others too.
