Recs! Of things not Buffy!
Sep. 1st, 2010 01:07 pmClearly I have broken whatever posting barrier I was feeling...
I recently read some non-Jossverse fic that made me very, very happy, and I wanted to share.

Potterverse. Snape/Hermione. (Should I be ashamed that I read fic in this fandom even though I've never finished the books? I feel I should be ashamed.)
Hermione, now a teacher at Hogwarts, is tasked with helping to remove Snape's Dark Mark, which has been getting the better of him and writing inappropriate letters. It's an understated piece with lots of snark and intellectual romance, which are two of my favorite things. Lovely, lovely stuff.

NuTrek. Uhura, her green roommate, and some Uhura/Spock
Uhura and her roommate come to terms with each other. This is fabulously happy-making female friendship fic which is also the best example I've ever seen (fic or pro) of exploring truly alien taboos. It's a bit didactic in places, but the gradual growth of the friendship is just wonderful. Thanks to
dragonpaws for the rec.
