Ocean Born

OMG, I love you for linking to that fic. I thought it had disappeared forever and I would never get my hands on it again. :D

[capra-maritimus.livejournal.com]

As far as I know it's the only one of hir fic that's still online.

[sacreddesire.livejournal.com]

tripping_sin's Trainers on a Strange (http://www.livejournal.com/tools/memories.bml?user=tripping_sin&keyword=the+subway+series&filter=all).

semaphore27's Lost/Found/etc. verse (http://semaphore27.livejournal.com/89111.html).

Another one that sticks out strongly in my head is one about buttonfly jeans, but honestly I can't remember anything other than that. I'm sure there are plently more but it's early and I can't think of any others.

[capra-maritimus.livejournal.com]

That's canciona's Button Fly Fic

Two of my absolute favorite Monaboyd fics, both written by dylan_dufresne:

Mistake Number Three (http://www.livejournal.com/community/monaboyd/1516189.html)

Also, With a Little Help From My Friends (follow-up fic to "Mistake Number Three", can be found on this page (http://dylan-dufresne.livejournal.com/32406.html)).

[silentdescant.livejournal.com]

shaenie's C-verse series (beginning with Cusp; all at the bottom of this page (http://www.fictumfictorium.com/shaenie/fiction.html)) is probably my favorite thing ever.

acroamatica has 101 Things To Do In Zero Gravity, which is a space AU and really really good.

kiltsandlollies has a lot of really amazing stuff too. Officer and Gentleman (http://monaboyd.net/badgers/files/Officer_and_Gentleman.html). Those are all pretty long, though. I really love Exposure (http://monaboyd.net/badgers/files/Exposure.html) by her, too.

And I second the semaphore27 and the dylan_dufresne recs, and pippinmctaggart's fic is amazing.

Just remembered Officer and Gentleman:

http://monaboyd.net/badgers/files/Officer_and_Gentleman.html

...I think I'm done.

[to-question.livejournal.com]

Yeah I couldn't pick three. =D sue me.

[capra-maritimus.livejournal.com]

I should also rec puddle_took's fic. All of it. :D

[glass-moment.livejournal.com]

My personal favorite is Pro Patria Mori by Serpentis, which is here: http://serpentisfix.livejournal.com/9235.html (links to last part). It's an abandoned WIP AU, but has a satisfactory ending where it leaves off.

Also on the subject of AUs, I recall being very taken with _dilse when it was being written, though I haven't read it in ages. And peter_and_fran is AMAZING, though it's more full cast with some monaboyd than monaboyd-focused.

[babydazzle.livejournal.com]

Anything by almaviva or semaphore27.

[eff-reality.livejournal.com]

My all-time favorite is The Incline of Trees. Index here (http://community.livejournal.com/inclineoftrees/44249.html).

A couple of authors I love who haven't been mentioned:
beizy, some of whose stuff is archived here (http://monaboyd.net/underyourskin/dombilly.html), and hackthis.

[msilverstar]

I can't choose! So I just rec them! on delicious.com/msilverstar

[skulkings.livejournal.com]

lavitanuova has written some perfect Monaboyd short stories.

[dizzydame.livejournal.com]

Phone Tig (http://pi.monaboyd.net/phonetigtoc.htm) by apple_pi

The One With All the Booths (http://community.livejournal.com/monaboyd/1092386.html) by elmathelas

Choices and Chances (http://www.livejournal.com/users/app1e_pi/40031.html#cutid1) by apple_pi

Those, after much deliberation I do think are my top three.

However, I've got a few (...hundred) more recs here (http://delicious.com/ohbilleh).
