Fan Fiction II: Great story! Where's the sequel?

This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.

There must have been fans waiting in the wings just chomping at the bit, because there are already way too many Rae/Finn Pacific Rim stories out the gate. I was trying to find a stony fic and kept bumping across TFA tags. Of course I can't find them if looming specifically for them.

It is, though, a great AU for any fandom.

I rec this Jessica Jones/ Bucky Barnes crossover by MsBrooklyn. Have not seen Jessica Jones or Civil Wars, so can't vouch for whether character voice rings true or not. But is very well done. It is both a romance (pretty much porn free) and good case-fic. The writer does a first rate job of showing the parallels between the brokeness of Jones and Barnes, and makes a convincing case that they can help each other not so much heal as live with that brokeness a little. 15 year old Peter Parker/Spidey is also in it; he is portrayed a bit too treacly for my tastes, not good for my diabetes. With that one caveat, it is a damn good fic. "Have you met miss Jones?" [link]

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I enjoyed the story, Gar. Thanks for the rec.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Apparently the Mortal Instruments stuff has a similar premise to her 90s Dark Hunters novels, and the marketing push that rebranded it as Shadowhunters for the new TV series was close enough to cause confusion.
