Pavlov's Cuddles [Stark Trek, Spirk, Philip Boyce/Christopher Pike]

Pavlov's Cuddles by InsaneSociopath 

Chris decides the absolute best way to get Jim to behave is to classically condition him using candy. Because. Um. That's perfectly normal and acceptable right?

This goes to that category where Kirk has so many problems and maybe those problems have their own problems too. But this time, it is not Kirk who is trying to overcome them. This time it Pike who is just trying to understand the problems and how he could help Kirk overcoming them. And then he finds some new problems. But there is a happy ending! That is very important part too.

The sad part is how people are still harrassing others who are slitghly different to others. And then the people who are suppose to be responsible adults are just not understnding whats going on and punishing the bullied kid. The scary part is how someone can go almost 30 years before anyone even notices that maybe Kirk is on the spectrum. 

But you have to love Pike for understanding and helping Kirk. And love his weird way of doing things. Yeaaa. Pike is weird, but so is everyone else to be honest. And his ways got the result so I think it doesn't even matter how he did it, as long as Kirk and everyone else is happy. Yay.

Oky. I had a point what I want to write about this. I really did. But right now, I can't remember it. So we have to go with these way too short and simple praises for this awesome fic. Yup.

Not the Fire but the Spark [Supernatural, Destiel, Nc-17]

Not the Fire but the Spark by goldenraeofsun 

Dean refused to look up his soulmate. His parents ran into each other by chance. Karen stopped by Bobby’s garage after her car unexpectedly broke down. Sam got seated next to Eileen on a plane, and he spent two hours miming conversation before she admitted she read lips.

Was it stupid for Dean to hold out for a story like that? Probably.

But he doesn’t regret his decision - not until Castiel Novak wanders into his tattoo parlor, asking about a cover up for his soulmark. 

This is another awesome fic where they actually think about the whole soulmate business. Like, they don't just automatically get their happily ever afters if they are soulmates. Their lives can fall apart and they can become stranges to each other. The most important part is that they have to do the work for the relationship to work and nurish and actually survive.

So basically this is not some fairytale soulmate fic where everyone is just super happy and have their happily ever after. Okay. Maybe some of them do. But the point was that the happily ever after is not given.

The other important part here is that if you are in any asexual spectrum it is okay. There is one aromantic person and she doesn't have a soulmate. And she is fine with that. And thats the norm. She doesn't want a soulmate, she wants to live her life without a lifepartner and is not "forced" to have a soulmate to share it with. Seriously. This is the kind of thinking I love.

Also. They dip into the thing where your soulmate's soulmatetattoo doesn't change even if you change your name. I am not so sure what to think about this, but I kind of like it. The whole thing has this one big question that I would love to have an answer for. Like, lets say you get abandoned as a baby. Your mother/father leaves you at the firestation without a name (so they can't be trased). Basically you kind of have to have a name at that point but then you need a name to live with. So which name is going to be on your soulmate's arm? And how can you be sure that the other is your soulmate if they have the name your bioparents' gave you but even you don't know that name?

I maybe should mention that they have name tattoos in this one. Where your soulmates name is tattood on your arm. Yea. Probably this info should be somewhere in the beginning but I can't be arsed to edit that much of the text.

Anyways. Why can't more soulmate fics be like this? I know this kind of world is getting more popular but still. I would love to read more soulmate fics where there is the possibility of you just being such a jackass that the relationship just doesn't work. So please. Feel free to leave links to similiar fics to the comments and I promise to at least check them out. Thanks.

Vulcan Keeping and Other Problems [Star Trek, Spirk]

Vulcan Keeping and Other Problems by t_3po

Where's the manual for raising nerdy young Vulcans chasing after local bad boys when you actually need it? 

This is about the aunt I want to be in the future. Kind of the cool aunt, who is always drinking wine and corrupting people's kids into the dark side. Yea. Thats me. I wanna be that in the future.

 So basically this story is about how Spock's aunt is super awesome and has an awesome impact on Spock. Also. Maybe Jim has some shitty influence over Spock too. Maybe. But it's mostyl Spock's aunt. The rest of the story is all about teenage angst and how to be an aunt to a vulcan. Yea. Basically the fic is pure gold.

I'll Call You Mine (And I'll Be Yours) [Merlin, Merthur]

I'll Call You Mine (And I'll Be Yours) by Chechilia

When Uther calls to ask Arthur his plan for his wedding with Elena, it's Merlin, Arthur's boyfriend of two years, that receives the message first. And when Arthur comes back home, he finds the flat empty. 

You wanna cry and be all sad? This is for you. This fits perfectly if you are sad and lonely and all you wanna do is cry and stay in bed feeling sad. This will help with all that.

Happy ending is just a bonus point and the reason to believe that there is tomorrow.
