Shortlist: Prompts, Table 4

01. Hospitality (Various) [Stargate Atlantis] {AU}

Oh my god. This story is horrifying. I mean, it's an AU where John, Teyla, and Ford get brainwashed into conscienceless thugs so they'll take over a city for a local chief. That goes badly enough, what with the torture and murder and threatened noncon. But the author got pleas for more and gave us a dozen different endings. And in those endings we get to see everybody corrupted, everybody dead, everybody traumatised... A whole range of unhappy endings.

02. Five Days a Week (House/Wilson) [House] {Discovery}

Five ways the ducklings find out about House and Wilson. Oh, wow, there aren't words for awesome this story is. It's absolutely hilarious, for one thing. For another, each story is from a different POV and every character reads true, which is quite a feat.

03. Living Arrangements (Crowley/Aziraphale) [Good Omens] {180 Degrees}

Hell's got nothing on heaven when it comes to punishing the defiant. God, this story brought me to tears.

04. Temps Perdu (gen) [Angel] {Quandary}

An absolutely gorgeous alternate ending to season five of Angel. This story also deals wonderfully with some of the show's issues with memory. And there's UST in every direction, which is fun.

05. War Profit (Ryan/Seth) [The OC] {Book}

This story continually reminds me why I have that giant crush on Seth Cohen. Also, there's lit-geekery. And boykissing. It's like my dream story!
