Must Reads??

[ratherbe4gotten.livejournal.com]

Ohh I'm so excited to find this community! I help run the spnstoryfinders comm for Supernatural and I was really hoping to find something similar for numb3rs!!

So I’m pretty new to the numb3rs fandom and I started thinking: in every fandom I've been in, there has been a handful of stories that everybody has read. These classics of the fandom are the kind that everybody's familiar with - except us newbies.

So what stories are the ones you'd nominate as classics? I’m mainly looking for slash or gen (feel free to rec me Don/Charlie). I love h/c, angst, first time, humor/crack... oh and kink, kink is a very good thing XD but mainly I'm just genuinely curious to learn which fics are considered the well-known, cut-above-the-rest ones.

Very many thanks in advance for any responses!

EDIT:

Also, is there a newsletter community for numb3rs, something like spnnewsletter?

I think everyone else has pretty much covered it, but I'd also like to mention sororcula's pet project a delicious page tagging every fic posted to numb3rs_news. She's only finished a few months, but it's an easy way to find things!

AND! You'll come across it at the numb3rs_awards but irena_adler's Watson 'verse. It's long and plotty and has a couple of OC's but it's AMAZING. *nods* Very first piece of fic I read in the Numb3rs world was in it. The master list is here!

Thank you! Wow, that delicious page looks like a job and a half! Thank you for the fic link too, it's kind of daunting to knowing where to start.

(I've just started watching Leverage too XD )

sororcula's a friend of mine, so I keep poking at her to work on it.

I think each of us has our own favorite writers in the fandom... I know I have mine *g*. And a lot of our writers have multiple fandoms that they play in (SPN is a big one), so you'll probably see some familiar names!

(Ugh Leverage is absolutely AMAZING. Chris Kane FTW)
