2) Today I'm pimping
Most stories feature Boone, but even if you don't like that character, I still recommend checking these out, because they're so sexy and (unlike a lot of smut) completely believable and written so vividly, you're seeing (and feeling!) them in Technicolor. I don't think all of these are available on LJ, so I'm linking offsite:
Smut: Five Ways Boone Gets Off, Cat Burglar, The Perks (Or How I Got This Job)
Non-smut: Locke and Load
