So, it would appear I am late to my own reccing party. I blame exams.
but let's start with:
Title: 500 Bottles of Beer
Pairing: eight/master
Length: around 12,500 words- a good long read
Warnings: by the author's warnings? none. I'd say... don't read while drinking liquids
Author on LJ (or Teaspoon, or Prydonian, if you can't find the author on lj):

Author website: none
Why this must be read: It's Eight/Master, which is much neglected, and arialas has the mopst wonderful, silly but serious prose style. It's one of those lazy stories that draws you in and makes you keep reading even when it's far too late in the evening and you have work tomorrow. It's friendly and silly in a pairing that is all about the emo and the torture (not that I don't love the torture) with a bitter, rather strange undertone to it that keeps what should be just silly, very memorable.
Excerpt: ( Whenever you are ready to sit up and behave like a reasonable person, you will find a pair of trousers folded to your left. )
