H50 Fic Rec and POI

H50 Fic rec: As a rule of thumb I do not read WIPs for various reasons, but I've totally been sucked into one the last month. It's not on any of the fic communities yet, (until it's complete I think) but it is regularly updated on the author's LJ. Currently at 16 chapters (about 30k thus far)

The Co-operative
Labeled Gen/ Pre-slash (h/c)
By Sealie

This is a lovely AU that is richly detailed, with wonderful character voices, and a very engaging plot. While down on his luck, Danny moves into a cooperative house operated by Steve a recovering ex SEAL. It has wonderful subtle h/c and deals with disability with respect and care. As a reader I totally got pulled into the lives of all our favorites on the show.

"Person of Interest" has an article in this week's TV Guide and was labeled a 'safe bet' for a season two after its steady ratings surged since the winter break.



I read that the last four episodes were being writen as one giant season finale! Eeep!

Oh, interesting.

I've been living how networks have been branching out beyond the usual cop/lawyer/doctor shows and giving all kinds of new ideas a chance. It took me a while to get into POI (because, apparently, some part of my brain refuses to get into any show until after it's several episodes in) but it's really starting to suck me in.

I had been reading The Co-operative when it was being posted in an advent comm and never thought to mark it for alerts so I thought the writer had stopped working on it. time to play catch up

Thanks for the rec! Fantastic story. Just mainlined all 16 chapters and want more now! Love the setting, the voices and everything.

*blush*

you're very kind. Thank you. I'm very glad that you think that I'm handing Steve's disability carefully.

I haven't announced the Co-op on any communities, because it is a WIP. I've debated back and forth backing it up on AO3 but... it is quite frankly because it's a WIP. And whilst I'm having a blast writing this, I'm very much playing in my sandbox in the corner, there's a little bit of backwards tweaking going on and evolution (which you may of spotted).

Ah, I'm blathering -- again 0_o

I'm so seconding your rec for "The Co-operative". I'm in love with it and while I hope that it still goes on for a while - I'm also hoping that's it finished soon so that a) I can re-read it all in one go and b) can rec it in my journal. :)
