For several years now, svroundtable has been a place for chats, discussions and fic/vid/art recommendations. And while the Smallville fandom continues to thrive, things have inevitably slowed down a bit. Signe and I have been discussing new directions in which to take the community so that it remains interesting, exciting, and an active part of the fandom.

As we work on making the changes and getting new plans in place, we’re placing svroundtable on a temporary hiatus. Right now, we’re planning on returning sometime in the fall, around the time when the new season premieres.

Posting access will be limited to the moderators only for the next few months, but you can still access the community for past recs and chats.

Enjoy your summer months! And we’ll see you soon!

These are all clark/lex.

Hi, I'm going to be posting recs each week for the month of July. I've been around (lurking - it is much more fun that way) in fandom pretty much since the beginning. I stopped watching the show a while ago but I still like to read the fic. There are so many talented people in this fandom.

This week I'm rec authors who for the most part are no longer active in fandom. ( Read more... )

This will be the final rec post from me for my month. It's been fun! And there I was getting all worried that I wouldn't have anything to rec. LOL

Ok, in response to last weeks post I've had a few people ask for more RPS recs so there's some of those here. I've also included just a random selection of fics I've enjoyed and saved but haven't recced yet. I really enjoy reading hurt/comfort fics so most of them fall into that category

( More RPS and general Clex recs )

And that's all from me *bows and exits*

And while clex is constantly distracting me, I will never forget my promises, so here is my slightly belated and little happy birthday rec for her!
For her devoted work at eat_crow, where she has week after week been compiling and collecting all the fascinating reviews, that is written for our beloved show, and also for all the brilliant meta and reviews that she has been writing herself!

Also? I think it's finally time to post up this, my most awesome fanmix. I'm really proud of this guys. Mostly because it's for a ship that is only really socially acceptable to like...three people besides myself. But it's probably mostly because of the bonus song.

I am sure, I am simply not the only one, who find the cover, and the selection of songs ... delightful :)

Got some slightly different recs this week. After checking with the oxoniensis that is was ok I'm going to rec some of my favourite Smallville RPS (real person slash) fics. They're all Mike/Tom

For those who aren't into RPS I'm also reccing some of my favourite fics that have been submitted for challenges over the last few months

Hope you enjoy!

( RPS and Challenge fics )

This weeks rec list comes from an idea I had after chatting with danceswithgary. Below are 5 of my favourite Clex authors and my 5 favourite fics that they have written (excluding fics I have recced previously). Also a couple of extra recs.

( A bunch of 5s )

This is a brilliantly clever Tom Welling as Superman vid

drive by recs again, yep, coz its not like I don't have 164 unread LJ sv-clex-related entry tabs in my browser opened :) or that I have several me-picspams missing *g*.

alas, eloquence of my own words is overrated:

Lex grinned at him, "I guess if I'm going to bother deflowering the local pig farmer, I might as well go all out."

and superwoobie is back with a new chapter of her wee!clex fic "Kissing In A Tree" (WIP), why this WIP doesn't have like ten millions of comments is beyond my grasp!!!!!

(  here we see wee!chloe in full reporter action mode already  )
ok, after all the wee!ing, back to the 164 tabs......*slinks away*

Some more recs for you all. These are all Clark/Lex.

( A handful of recs )

Ok, I'm going to start the month with a bunch of general recs. These are all things I enjoyed to the point where I recced them in my own journal. They're all Clark/Lex unless otherwise specified

( Rec list )

More to come later

Hello everyone! I'm Hils and I will be your reccer for the coming month

I'm pretty new to the SV fandom, only really getting properly involved just before Christmas. But I've seen the show and I've crammed in a lot of fic reading in the few months I've been in the fandom

I'm going to mostly be sticking to personal favourites of mine but I'll try and dig out some stuff you might not all have read too.

I'll try and get a rec post done some time this weekend

I don't care if LJ world is going to end tomorrow, because of a bunch of idiots doing idiotic things! lalala, I don't care, all we need is clex :D

so here we go, happy , hot and brilliant old clex!

OH, WHAT A WORLD! A spontaneous unpremeditated act. [18k]
http://wearemany.net/tiff/oh.html

This isn't like that carefully staged sin at all, though Clark doesn't seem to need to breathe at all, which makes up for what he's clearly never done before. Lex has never been so happy to have been such a lazy and predictable sexual explorer before. Empires have risen and fallen in the time since Clark went down, eras of sloppy sucking and lazy licking and just behind his right ear Clark has a perfect brown disc of a mole.


Self-Defense [written w/Tiffany Rawlins]
[Clark/Lex, 22k, NC-17]: Clark needs boxing lessons like Lex needs a week at Wharton Business School.

http://wearemany.net/tiff/self.html
or
http://home.teleport.com/%7Epunkm/selfdefense.html

It's like a dream, Lex right there in his lap, saying his name and panting about how hot he is. This is real, though, with Lex looking like he's just discovered nuclear fusion, eyes dark and dazed, and he's practically babbling, telling some incoherent story about Clark's cock and Lex's cars and a quarter-million dollar blow job and Lex squeezes Clark's arms and says yes a few times as if seconding his own genius


THE TELLING OF ALL THIS Forward momentum. [25k]
http://wearemany.net/tiff/telling.html

Lex doesn't know, because Clark hasn't told him. Clark probably hasn't told anyone, and he's not telling him now, except that he is.
He's warning Lex. He's trying to say that whatever it is will be worse than some jock thrown across a basketball court. But Lex already knew that much. He could have guessed

because I am currently have to be afraid of my immortal clex soul, I was going to revisit old stuff, and look , what I found!!

This has been a gift from lassegalen for lexalot's birthday in 2004, but it has lost NOTHING of its beauty!
god those eyes, that skin, these lips......and the colors.....my clex soul is, albeit in danger coz of wincest, totally safe and secure!!!!!!

go and look for yourself:

Just added a silly set of recs for Towel Day. Join me in celebrating Douglas Adams and the glory that is a towel! *grin*

Fics where a towel plays a supporting role. Sheer silliness in celebration of Towel Day! No CLex was permanently harmed in the making of this list, only happy endings allowed. Full set on my journal.

No WIPs, no f-locked fics included. In alphabetical order by title.

Don't forget to leave feedback for the author if you enjoy them! :-D

A Law Divine by acampbell NC-17 (28K)

Lex pulled the towel from his face, which was streaked with blood that was partially dried. Fresh blood still gushed from his nose, dripping onto his blue shirt, staining it dark. Quickly, he replaced the towel.


Aftermath by edie22 NC-17 (32K)

"You want to come in? I think there are some towels out there. You can leave your clothes on the hooks."


Burned by Karen Colahan aka yavannauk NC-17 (28K)

The only difference was that Lex was now holding his bunched up towel in front of himself, obscuring Clark's view of his slim hips encased in tight, stretchy fabric. Clark wondered if Lex was hiding what he hoped he was, but he wasn't sure if he had the right to ask. And his conscience wouldn't let him make unfair use of his x-ray vision to look through the towel and trunks to make sure.


Dirty by goth_clark NC-17 (75K)

Now here he stood, dripping water all over the hardwood floor, wearing nothing but a towel. It wasn't even a large towel. He had to hold it in place with one hand because it barely wrapped around his hips.


Five Very Good Reasons Not to Date Luthors by seperis NC-17 (23K)

Clark stretches. He'd wondered if maybe he was overdoing it, but Lex has the strangest affection for Clark wearing towels right after showers. Especially if he's only holding it in one hand.


Fund Raiser by edie22 NC-17 (30K)

Lex watched the muscles in Clark's back ripple and move. He watched Clark lean forward to spray, what Lex deduced was Armor-All, onto the hubcaps and wipe it off with another towel and then repeated that on each of the other three tires. After, he jogged into the garage, retrieved a dry towel from the front seat of the car that had been done before, and then jogged back out to drive the newly done car into the garage.


Hideaway by rivkat NC-17 (92K)

He bent, putting one hand on each side of Lex, feeling the terry loops of the towel almost rough against his slick-soft hands. Lex's head was hanging down, his forehead almost touching the towel as he waited, braced on his forearms.


Marked by seperis NC-17 (51K)

The sound of the water is loud and then the razor takes a station somewhere behind Clark, hopefully to be utilized again Real Soon Now (tomorrow, please), and the towel, hot and wet, is against his face. Gently wiping. Good place to hide what Clark thinks is a spectacular example of his ability to blush.


Secrets, Lies and Misunderstandings by mahaliem NC-17 (88K)

Silently, Clark vowed to do something very, very special for Chloe sometime in the near future for the 'dripping wet and small towel' suggestion.


Stuck In The Plot of a Bad Porno by all_you_wanted NC-17 (25K)

Lex came out of the bathroom with a smile on his face, not at all acting like he had been in there polishing the rocket like a horny 12 year old just discovering his penis felt good when you pulled it. And he too was now wearing only a towel. I will not look under the towel. I will not look under the towel.

The Kissing Game by Kel aka kelex NC-17 (48K)

Towels would be really great. The bigger the towel, the less Lex-skin was revealed to him, and Clark put his overnight bag in the same hand as the basket as he pitched the towel to Lex.


The Lex Protector by suzvoy PG (12K)

And saw Superman emerging from the bathroom. Wet. Wearing just a towel. That had apparently only ever been intended for drying off a very small, very bald mouse.


The Milk and Cookies War by Punk PG-13 (36K)

Clark is wearing nothing but a towel. "Yeah, who told you that?" Clark switches the phone to his other ear and absently pushes wet hair out of his eyes. A white towel, wrapped around his hips, knotted just under his navel and the line of dark hair leading down. Lex's priorities undergo a few adjustments.


The Very Cliche Motel Fic by nortylak aka muse_attack R (40K)

The towel, which Clark had now become quite sure was mocking him, looked like it was about to fall away completely, so Clark pawed through the bag until he came across what he hoped would be a distraction.


Toe-Hold by Diana DeShaun PG-13 (24K)

"Clark," Lex's voice sounded strangled as he plucked at the towel in his lap, fluffing it up to better accommodate his awakening cock beneath it. "Fuck it, just cut the damn toe off!"


Touch Therapy by fajrdrako NC-17 (24K)

He couldn't remember what the book said about towels. He did remember what it said about the gluteus maximus, how those muscles held tension and were important to massage.


Undertow by elynross NC-17 (108K)

Walking into the sauna with a tent in his towel...

jump in again to have a rec, since I am not sure, how much I will be able to be around next week!

I have just found another new clex author at twop, and she is the perfect example why for me, it will be never acceptable to leave all those other clex places behind, whether forums or yahoo groups and concentrate on LJ, because damn, you never know when you stumble upon someone, who has never heard of us on LJ, and it would be sad, to miss them!!

Pam or plnunn is normally a Yaoi writer (and artists, as you can see with her art *g*), but I am glad, she has been seduced into clex!!!!
she has watched all SV up until S5, and has now written her first fic in our fandom!

When she posted the link at twop, of course, I immidiately followed, and for her first clex fic, its damn impressive!
its long, its plotty and she has great voices for both clark and lex, and I love how she makes things not easy for them.
Just the right amount of anger, hate, fear and desire in both of them!!

Reciprocation WIP
Author: plnunn

first chapter
http://bishonenworks.com/fiction_new/story_chapters/reciprocation1.php
Notes: Part Smallville Cannon, part my own creation. Let's just say that the end of season 6 never happened.
Sort of a future fict, since it takes place During Clark's seinior year in college.
Summary: When Lex inadvertantly discovers Clark's powers a great deal of buried emotion bubbles to the surface on both their parts. Trust issues abound. Updated 5-11-07
Fandom: Smallville Slash
Pairing(s): Clark x Lex (Clex)
Rating: NC-17 yaoi/shounen-ai
Warnings: m/m, major violence


and while I was leaving her feedback, of course, I had to get her to join us here at LJ fandom *g*.
she followed all the links I provided with a lightening speed, and already also posted her art, and for that alone, I owe her this rec ;D

if you enjoy my recs, please leave the artist feedback in her original post, or here :)

Hi! I'm teot, and I'm the reccer for May. My recs will be completely random, stories as well as art and vids, but I'll try to focus on material that has been produced in the last year.

Scion by scribblelenore. A Smallville/Profit crossover. I was enchanted with this story from the first moment scribblelenore posted it because I had *just* finished watching Profit (also highly recommended). Profit's voice is right on, and disenchanted Lex has an edge, a very attractive, kinky edge. I don't think you have to see Profit to enjoy this; a healthy appreciation of teenage, rebel Lex will work just fine.

Long Way Down by scrunchy. Lex Luthor/Anderson Cooper. Hmm, I suppose I should warn for RP slash, but trust me, this works. It's sexy as hell and scrunchy also manages to work in a sly suggestion of CLex.

1001 Nights by garryowen. Clark/Lex. Warning, this is a WIP. I'm going to admit that I'm recommending this for totally selfish reasons: I want her to finish it. *g* AU. Likely novella-length already. It has such promise; the smut is hot, and the characterizations are excellent. Leave a comment, and garryowen may consider finishing it!

Of Chess and Cookie Jars, Very Important Things by romanyg. This is a short, absolutely *perfect* little CLex fic. It's my favourite of romanyg's. Clark talks to Lex on the phone--in the shower. It starts out innocent and then turns... not so innocent. It's also crazy hot without being explicit, which is always difficult to pull off.

Q.E.D. by runpunkrun is absolutely charming. It's cliché fic (Clark pretends to be gay), college fic, hilarious and yet wonderfully hot.

Endgame by bagheera_san. This is amnesia!fic with a twist. bagheera_san is a very promising writer; she's very prolific and I'm afraid I haven't been able to keep up with her yet, but amnesia!fic always has wonderful potential, especially when it's dark but you don't quite know the extent of that darkness until the end.

Free Blowjobs from Superman by kantayra. Lex is President and Superman has to "Swear allegiance and stuff," only somehow blowjobs get mixed in there. Hmm.

Yep, its me, the non-reccer of neither month, coz I am bad at committing to anything :D

so to keep it painless, work is deadly boring, boss is away having dinner with bigbig boss in Swiss, and I keep on browsing old, very old SV LJ memories !

and damn, i could do that the rest of my life, there is SO much, even if there weren't SO many new fics (looky look at the newest issue of the sv_ledger by bop_radar !) I would be busy for years to come, i have so many bookmarks to sv (clex) fics I have not read, it could just takes eternity!

first:
Pete, Pete and Lex, Pete and Lex and Clark! (no threesome, don't worry)
absolutely adorable and believeable for the early seasons, and missu made me miss Pete!!
See Rock City by missu
http://missu.livejournal.com/26056.html


Lex/Lana on the show is not doing much for me, but then, I barely know the show aside from what I read from the linked reviews at eat_crow by norwich36. I watch the show for the amazing shiny visuals, and leave the deep thoughts to our meta-review experts ;D
But I adore ladyoneill since the moment she wrote the non-con Zod/Clark ficlet!!

so speaking of kinks, this ficlet is simply intriguing and hot (to me *g*)
Ficlet: One Year 1/1 Zod/Lana, R
http://ladyoneill.livejournal.com/665437.html


and last for today,
svwip: li'l clark and li'l lex - prequel by seperis
One Thing That Jonathan Never Would Have Done
http://seperis.livejournal.com/28816.html

coz, uhhh, yes, damn dark........but in an AU universe?
Sure, I can see how those lovely SV town folks could have done this...including Jonathon.
This fic works as a standalone, but she has expanded it to a hell lot longer story!!!!!!
Looking Glass
http://seperis.illuminatedtext.com/smallville/lookingglass.html

See you all (hopefully) later at sv_vids!
and while you are already reading this, why not commit yourself to be reccer of the month! here the way :
http://community.livejournal.com/svroundtable/69561.html

or just like me, jump in and tell us what you are reading :)

These recs were brought to you by product(LJ-community)-placement Ender *g*

First of all, and that cannot be repeated enough, a huge thanks to danceswithgary, and her massive work as the reccer of April!!!!! most of you who have been following her recs here, will probably have enough to read for the next couple of *years*...;D
------------
and next, waves to the newly sign-up reccers!!!!!
I am already looking forward to more SV goodness to come! old or new!! known or unknown!!! short or long!!!! for gods sake, we have probably 5000 stories at SSA (and another 5000 outside of SSA), and no matter what impression I give, I swear I havent read them all (yet) *g*.
------------
Third, my reason why I jumped in tonight: I was depressed.
Serves me right to look at something else beyond SV and clex.
So, what does Ender do , when she is depressed??
Except for looking at the humor recs of dwg?

There are two wonderful places, one I have known for a long time, another one, I just found! both will never fail to make me smile :)
click on the pics, and it will take you directly to their respective websites!!!
