dungeonmarm says that I "like whatever, as long as it's well-written." I suppose he's right.
One thing that never fails to make me happy, though, are Detective AUs. I love old noir detectives, I love what they stand for, I love characters who fight for justice against a corrupt system, I love police partners falling for each other, I love hostility that turns into sex, I love whump where one of the pair is kidnapped and the other has to save them!
It's kind of difficult for me to think of many, but there are two fics of this type that definitely stick out to me.
First, there's Below Skyscrapers by aesc. It's Dean/Cas, where Dean is a detective with Victor as his partner (I love it when Victor is his partner) and Castiel is an angel brought in to work some ritual murders. It has supernatural creatures being known by civilians, it has hostility, it has slow burn, I remember it being pretty awesome.
The other that I remembered was Hindsight by rageprufrock. It's John/Rodney, and the only thing I remember is that John is a diabetic cop, and Rodney is Rodney? But it's stuck in my head. Of course, rageprufrock is amazing and I love all of her stuff. I'm tempted to do a reread. :D
