Bookmarker's Notes
wip and I don't usually read those but this one tempted me to make an exception. I'm glad I did. The characters are nicely done, I especially appreciate John. This hasn't been updated recently but I'm hoping it will be soon. The relationships in this story are interesting and frankly more believable than many in the fandom. Though Harry is at times dense in this, he's dense in canon and it rather suits him to experience the sort of slow reveal that's happening here. It's charming enough to make me feel invested in the outcome and that's as good as any story is going to get. If I don't care about the outcome for the people then why bother reading?

Summary
Following the repeal of DADT, Colby and Evan decided to get married. They planned on having a quiet wedding with just a few close friends and family present. It all seemed so straightforward in theory.
John/Rodney are a secondary pairing here, with a little pre-slash Don/Ian.
Series

This was a very nice story of an uncommon pairing, one that I'd never see before and though it was a surprise it was a very pleasant one. Colby and Evan really worked as a couple and the characters from each show were interesting and fun.
There's no action or excitement from guns or danger etc. but the story was a feel good right of passage and I wish there were more chapters of the new adventures they might share on Atlantis. This story was posted some time ago so it may not happen but I think the author had a nice touch with Colby and Evan and it would no doubt be great to see them again.

Bookmarker's Notes
“Gay would mean that I'm in love with men. No, I just sometimes like to fuck them.” Don grinned at the shock on Charlie's face.
It all proceeds downhill from that point on.
Overly obtuse and frankly dimwitted Charlie doesn't work in any Numb3rs fic. He might be inexperienced in some ways but he's never dumb.If the plot was great or even the sex scenes this fic might skate by. Sadly it doesn't and though it was posted in 2015 so in general I think there was less political correctness and certainly less scrutiny of motivations this one really didn't age well.

Summary
Unemployed artist Steve takes a job managing the worst coffee shop in Brooklyn, where the floors are greasy, the coffee beans have expired, the espresso machine’s been sabotaged, and the owners might be Russian Mafia. But the job comes with a few perks, like a generous paycheck, reasonable hours, and one super-hot customer whom Steve can’t resist having dirty, filthy, bad-idea sex with in the bathroom.
Steve is pretty sure this job is going to kill him. But what a way to go....

Well, another pod that's a slam dunk by Tipsy_Kitty. What an amazing job she does with reading and with technical aspects. Her reading and expression is perfect and whatever software and hardware she uses works like a charm because there's never a sound other than her voice. No noises, no microphone puffs or silibence, never a hint of extraneous home/street sounds etc. her work is perfect.
Anyone that loves the medium that is podfic should listen to this, it doesn't even matter if it's your particular fandom, it's a true pleasure to experience.

Fabulous - yes fabulous reading of fashion mag ST. Interesting voices and accents and lovely content in the story. Nice to listen to, very acceptable technical details and a soothing delivery as well. Easy on the ears and interesting choice in music. Special note on the music is that the levels are fantastic. They're never too loud or too low but very Goldilocks and just right.
F&F download this and have fun listening, then let me know what you think.
