Rec at least three fanworks that you didn’t create.

Yes! I love reccing!

The Uses of a Sandwich by laurakaye [Star Wars Prequels, Gen]
A few months after being taken as a Padawan, Obi-Wan Kenobi faces a challenge: meeting his Master's first apprentice.
This is a lovely story of kid Obi-Wan growing up with Qui-Gon. Qui-Gon's first, now-knighted padawan has some concerns, expresses those concerns poorly, and then there is self-recrimination and healing. I think Obi-Wan deserved this big sister in his found family.

Small Kindness by Elsajeni [The Hobbit/Lord of the Rings, Gen]
Fili gives a little snort, as if he doesn't believe that, but he doesn't press any further, either. Instead, he hands the crumpled note back through the bars and says, "Burn that, will you? And..." Another moment's pause; then the dwarf seems to make up his mind. "And come back and speak to me, if—"
"If I hear any more word of your uncle," Legolas finishes for him.
Fili grins, teeth glinting white in the darkness. "If you've a mind to," he says, "news or no news."
A poignant and perfect bridge between The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings. I'm very sad that Legolas and Fili and Kili didn't get time to be friends.

By daybreak we'll be gone by storm_petrel [The Losers, Jensen/Cougar]
Once you go into the woods, you don’t come back out again; or, how Franklin Clay got himself a pack.
The one where they're all werewolves except Jensen and that causes problems right up until it doesn't anymore. I've read this at least half a dozen times.

I actually don't think I've commented on some of these and I should go do that. I also need to finish up Yuletide reading and get some recs out for that as well!
