FANDOM: Blake’s 7, Discworld - Terry Pratchett
FIC LINK: One for the Road
AUTHOR LINK: [archiveofourown.org profile] still_lycoris
RATING/WARNING(S): Teen, major character deaths
WIP?/WORD COUNT: 692 | Complete
MAIN CHARACTERS: Roj Blake, Kerr Avon, Dayna Mellanby, Del Tarrant, Vila Restal, Soolin, DEATH

FIC SUMMARY: Blake never expected Death to come to take him personally. Or for Death to come bearing a cocktail glass ...

RECCER'S NOTES: Blake’s 7 and Discworld aren’t the most obvious bedfellows but this Post-Gauda Prime fic works. It manages to be both funny and touching.

FIC LINK: Almost No One Makes It Out
AUTHOR LINK: [archiveofourown.org profile] atrata
RATING/WARNING(S): Teen
WIP?/WORD COUNT: Complete | 28,101
MAIN CHARACTERS: Tony Stark, Pepper Potts, James 'Rhodey' Rhodes

FIC SUMMARY: What would have happened if Tony hadn't been born filthy rich? A military AU.

RECCER'S NOTES:

This rec has been floating around my flist lately, though it's not a new fic. I haven't seen it posted here yet (?) so -- enjoy! This is a fabulous, gritty, well researched story. I'm very picky with my AUs and this is absolutely one of the best I have ever read. I love Tony and Pepper's friendship here (you can maybe read a little more into it, but affectionate friendship is pretty much the limit of it, and it's tagged as gen). The other details of the fic, including how Iron Man ends up fitting into the world, are wonderfully done.
