[personal profile] turps
A few weeks back I asked people to give me recs for stories they thought showed good Chris, and they did. Below the cut is all the recs I was given, and I'm stressing they're from others, not me. My ego isn't so big I'd rec myself ;)

Thank you to everyone that gave me recs, and may I say, it's wonderful to have timbertrick represented so well. Usually that's a pairing that suffers when I ask these things. Sadly, this time it was Choey that lost out. *pets the choey*

If I've messed up links or put stories in the wrong group let me know. I'll get that changed.

Other than that, check them out, read and enjoy. If I was given a reason for the rec I included that, if not, all you get is the rec.

And the remix of the above. ~~ [livejournal.com profile] giogio
So Wrong txt ~~ [livejournal.com profile] ukcalico
Ascension ~~ [livejournal.com profile] kaneko
Something More ~~ [livejournal.com profile] sola_fiamma -- because it has a self-sabotaging, witty, nasty, funny Chris tormenting both himself and Lance. And there's some TrickC in there too.

Heart of Stone, Eye of Tree -- Chris in the sparkly version of Tam Lin [livejournal.com profile] synecdochic
Madchen ~~ [livejournal.com profile] wearemany -- because it hits every genderfukt kink I own. Holy Guh Batman!
Songs About LA ~~ [livejournal.com profile] phaballa -- has an incredibly jaded, bitter, aimless Chris hating everything about LA. It's wonderful and horrible simultaneously.
This Time [livejournal.com profile] patchworkdragon -- I just like all of these because they show a 'real' Chris. Not a fantasied version. They just want to make me hug him and read more. Same reason for Boxes and The Long Run.

Choey

Slim Fast ~~ [livejournal.com profile] rhyssj -- so sexy and hot and just, guh.
Optimistic ~~ [livejournal.com profile] jae_w -- Joey is going through a divorce and a biography of his life is obviously the answer. And because the ending makes me cry with sad happiness.
Mysterious Ways ~~ [livejournal.com profile] pierson
Party Like It's Nineteen Ninety-Nine ~~ [livejournal.com profile] nopseud -- Because in the middle of the end of the world, Joey is focused on the really important thing, namely, Is Chris gay?
Imaginary Boyfriend ~~ Tracy -- Because there's nothing more heartbreaking that Chris realizing he's got everything he wished, and it's not at all what he wanted.
