so what inspired this archaeological dig into a fandom I rarely visit? [livejournal.com profile] aqua_blurr's Indirectives (J/7, reference to J/C, 7/C), Mild R) written for the Die, J/C, Die contest (an idea I can totally get behind, btw). It's a vivid stream-of-consciousness account from multiple POVs of this fucked up love triangle that ends with J/7 OTP promise.

Mojor's Symphony Twisted , J/7, T is an ambitious and plot-driven story with an interesting concept and some great characterization. And, yes, they make out. And more. The narrative feels a little rushed at times, but it's a very good read. Plus, it has the dubious honor of being the only fanfiction.net fic ever to make my rec list. *streamers*

Where the Dream Takes You, by nejvit. J/7, Mature is a thoughtful, well-drawn romance that really takes its time with the narrative and the characters.

DiNovia's Arte/Scienze, J/7, PG is an artfully done piece about 7 finding her humanity (and Janeway) in the artist's studio.

Small Dreams of a Scorpion by tigermoth26 (aka [livejournal.com profile] eight_leg_dog) is the first in a short series of J/7 ficlets that take on the darker side of 7's borgness, something I wish we'd seen more of in fic. Wonderful language, fascinating characterization, and no happy ending...well, unless you're Borg and live to assimilate. Very Mature. Resistance is futile.

Night by Metis, Susan Ivanova/Talia WintersVery Mature. Hot sex in a deserted shuttle car. Great parallels between the sex and Ivanova's 'coming out' as a psi to Winters, but really it's all about the hot sex isn't it?

eta in the interest of fairness (or something), I should mention Lunacy's Reviews which has links to a lot of very popular Voyager (and Xena) fics that aren't, for the most part, really my cup of tea. They do have have legions of fans, however, and I don't. (Lisa Countryman's fic comes to mind as well as G.L. Dartt's).

also, ETA [livejournal.com profile] theholyinnocent points to this site full of recs to Xena, Voyager and BTVS fic. See, this is what I'm talking about, people - femslashy teamwork!! There is no I in team! She also has a W. joke on her LJ right now that will make you laugh if you don't cry. Or possibly both at the same time.

and ETA [livejournal.com profile] projectjulie, girlslash goddess, also chimed in with her own Voyager Master List, which contains some of my fav Voyager fic (click on the j/7 and voyager tags for more posts) including Anik LeChev (swoon) and Bailey's fic. Plus, fic and links I've never seen, which is always of the good.

This site also has Xena fic reviews, and also some other fandoms as well, but like Lunacy, I don't think it's been updated in a while.

heh. I think this is one of those moments where my ignorance comes in handy. I've watched all of five minutes of Voyager. Ever.

ah, I do not read J/7 nearly enough any more, and my own recs are hopelessly outdated. I'll try to hit these someday soon -- some of the stories may even be new2me! thanks...

Yes I'm still writing but not as frequently as before. The last thing I wrote got one response: "Why do you hate janeway? I love janeway! How can anyone hate janeway?"

...which sums up what happens when you attempt different storylines :D This site is great though - so many distractions...so little time!

:)
