My [livejournal.com profile] jujubinha is asking for pre-S3 smut, and since I miss her so much (even though we chatted last night!! Yay!!), I'm reccing one for her.  I was going to just reply in her journal, but I thought others might like to see an acutal Alias rec as well.  There's been sooooooo little good new fic, and almost no good new smut fic (which reminds me, if you're not reading Phoenix by Lady M, why not?).

To Serve One's Country is a WIP by Avenue47.  It's S/V (naturally), and is kind of hard to describe.  It starts immediately pre-series, and well, just read the author's summary:

Agent Sydney Bristow thinks she is serving her country, Agent Michael Vaughn knows he is serving his. What will happen when each is sent on a mission to intercept the other?

It's quite an interesting concept, and it's why I decided to delve in to this unknown-to-me author.  It's not Chronos or Playback, but the writing is fairly tight (if a bit purple when it comes to the smut), the plot is sound, and she's captured accurate characterizations of Vaughn, Syd, Jack and Weiss.  I'm finding it very entertaining, and the smut is HOT.

Cath, you're reading Phoenix?? I TOTALLY didn't know. I'm so touched! I'm assuming you've gotten to the parts that I didn't write, correct?

Sweetie, I've been reading it from day one and waiting with baited breath for each installment. And OF COURSE I've read the smutty parts. This is me we're talking about. :P

I'm just a HORRIBLE reviewer. I've accepted that, and try to be a good recommender instead. I normally hate recc'ing WIP's, but Ju was desperate for S1 or S2 smut. Once Phoenix is done, you can bet there will be a glowing rec in my LJ.

Awww, thanks. Jodi's been gone on her Mouse pilgramage recently, she just got back. We were just talking as a matter of fact. I have 2 chapters written, but have needed to edit, and am now waiting on the cable company to come install my new modem/connection. I might just have to see if I can borrow a neighbor's connection, emailing it to myself. But I have to do somethings, and get them back to France to have smutty bits again! ;)

Oh I forgot. I hope Gustav hasn't done any damage to your home or the fam. That all is well in CathLand.

Cath,

I have been reading Laura's Phoenix since the beginning too. I agree its one of the best ever written, I also have been reading Avenue47 "To Serve Ones Country" but I have been reading it at another place where Avenue is ahead in her story,where I'm reading it she is in chapter 9,not 6 like at SD-1. here is the link to chapter 7.

Bless you, Cath! I've been scrambling around trying to find good fic that I haven't yet read. And because this fic has your stamp of approval...I'll give it a shot.

And word on Laura's Phoenix. It truly rocks.

Thanks for the recs jesouhaite47! I'm gonna check them out. It's time I fall back to reading S/V smut.

I've actually quickly passed my eyes over "To Serve Ones Country". While I agree it's much better than what we've dealing in SD-1 lately, I'm not feeling the luuuuurve. And I blame that to the fact that if I could write, my dream fic plot would be similar to that (you know how much I love AU), but it's just not going the way I wanted, so let's say it's kind of personal. That, and I don't like her Vaughn characterization. It bugs me.

But thanks for the "Phoenix" rec! I didn't know about that fic at all, and I shall read it asap! Is it pre-SD6-destruction? I hope it is!Woo!

Thanks for the req, Cath...I just finished reading all of it (well, what's already written, that is). The smut is definitely hot, and I like Jack in this, his overprotectiveness is pretty funny.

I found that fic as well. I really like it. The premise is great and the smut is wonderful. I'll have to read Phoenix though.
