Title: Worldwalking
Author: [livejournal.com profile] sholio
Spoilers: Up to Checkmate (3x11)
Characters: Neal, Peter, Keller
Pairings: gen for our universe, though other pairings are mentioned in the context of other realities
Warning: None
Summary: "It's sort of like you turn around, and walk out of the world," Keller once said. Neal never could do it. But then Keller did it and he took Peter with him, so Neal had to learn how.

Why rec'd? This is a great concept -- Neal searching for Peter through alternate universes and alternate versions of themselves -- and it's written wonderfully, with a really strong central friendship and tense climax. I really liked all the glimpses of how events in both their lives could have gone so differently.

Title: Rescue
Author: lstuds
Spoilers: None
Characters: Peter, Neal
Pairings: None
Warnings: None
Summary: When Peter receives a distressed phone call from Neal at two o'clock in the morning, he rushes over to his partner's apartment to see what's going on. What he finds is hardly what he expected.

Why rec'd? Funny and cute - my favorite combination! I especially like the parallels the author draws but I can't really say more without giving away why Neal calls Peter in the middle of the night (though the reader gets to know that early on, either way, but still ...)

Author:  last1stnding
Spoilers:  None
Characters: Peter, Neal, Elizabeth
Pairings: None
Warning:  None
Summary:  It started out as an ordinary, rather boring night until everything changed suddenly...
Why rec'd?  This a great Peter H/C story.  It is very understated and touching.  It wonderfully portrays the relatonships between everyone.

Title: See This Through
Author: [livejournal.com profile] frith_in_thorns
Characters: Neal Caffrey, Diana Berrigan, Peter Burke
Summary: Any distance can be almost too far to cross when you're bleeding out and only have the voices in your ear to help you.

Why rec'd? I love "a character is injured and the only help they have is a voice on the radio/phone while they get themselves out of the situation" fics. This fic is a fantastic example of this. It also has a great Neal POV, wonderful Diana and Neal, Peter and Neal and Peter, Diana and Neal banter and friendship. ♥

Title: Unspoken
Author: [livejournal.com profile] sholio
Characters: Neal Caffrey, Peter Burke, Diana Berrigan, Elizabeth Burke
Pairings: canon Peter/Elizabeth
Warnings: mention of cancer
Summary: Peter has cancer; Neal deals.

Why rec'd? This has a great Neal POV with Neal (not) dealing with the fact that Peter has cancer and that words are failing him. It also has some excellent Neal and Peter friendship scenes and some very good Neal and Diana friendship moments. I also love that, despite the serious theme of this fic, there is still so much to smile and laugh at in it.

Summary: This is an AU tag for "Front Man": A worried Peter follows Neal back home after he disappears without his anklet. (No mentions of Alex or the music box in here.)

Why rec'd? Wonderful little AU story about Peter taking care of Neal with a medical condition.

Author:  Lisa Paris
Spoilers:  None
Characters:  Peter, Neal, Elizabeth
Pairings:  None

Summary:  It would be crazy to go into the water, it must be barely thirty-two degrees . . .
Why rec'd?  This is just a perfect hurt/comfort and friendship story.  Also it is a great Peter in peril story.

Author: [livejournal.com profile] nynine
Characters: Neal Caffrey, Peter Burke
Pairing: gen
Spoilers: none specific
Warnings: takes place in the future, with past deaths of canon characters
Summary: Peter and Neal always have each other's backs.

Why Rec'd? Too cute story about Peter and Neal as old guys, still looking out for each other in their own unique way.

Title: Catch me
Author: [livejournal.com profile] sholio
Characters: Elizabeth Burke, Neal Caffrey, Peter Burke
Pairings: Canon Elizabeth/Peter
Summary: Neal gets saddled with a drugged Elizabeth.

Why rec'd? This is a wonderful little fic with a drugged!Elizabeth who does and doesn't trust Neal. I love the friendship between Elizabeth and Neal and between Neal and Peter.

Author:  [livejournal.com profile] sholio
Spoilers:  None
Characters:  Peter and Neal
Pairings: None
Warning:  None

Why rec'd?  This is one of my favorite White Collar stories.  I love Peter and Neal hanging out together outside of work.  This is just a delightful story.

Title: Spitfire
Author: [livejournal.com profile] attackfish
Characters: Neal Caffrey, Peter Burke (also with Mozzie, Elizabeth, Kate, Sara)
Pairing: mostly focused on Peter and Neal, but also with Neal/Kate, Neal/Sara
Spoilers: up to 3x10
Warnings: none
Summary: Neal has more than one secret he's keeping from Peter, but as Peter draws closer to one, he draws closer to all of them. Dragon!Neal AU.

Why Rec'd? This is amaaaaaaazing. I read it and then I had to run over here and insta!rec it. [livejournal.com profile] attackfish takes the most perfect, original idea about dragons ever, and wraps it up in the entirety of season 1-3 canon, compressed into a story that is only about 2500 words long, funny and sweet and heartbreaking by turns, and ends up in such a perfect post-Countdown place that I wish this could somehow be canon (except it can't, because Neal's not really a dragon; bummer).

Author: [livejournal.com profile] jadesfire2808
Characters: Peter Burke, Neal Caffrey
Pairing: Gen

Why Rec'd? This is super cute, a neat Peter-Neal friendship fic with great banter and an underlying sense of mutual affection and concern.

Title:  Four Cups of Tea (and a waffle iron)
Author:  halcyon_shift
Spoilers:  Series
Characters: Peter, Neal, Elizabeth, Mozzie, Hughes
Pairings: None
Warning:  None
Summary:  Mozzie and Elizabeth bond over tea whilst Peter, Neal and Hughes find themselves in the middle of the worst timed robbery ever
Why rec'd?  This story is wonderful and feels like it could be an episode.  It has spot on characterzations, Mozzie and Elizabeth friendship, Peter and Neal partnership and great Hughes moments

Title: The one where Neal reads the phone book
Author: [livejournal.com profile] bella_harvest
Characters: Peter Burke, Neal Caffrey
Pairing: Gen with past Neal/Kate
Spoilers: for the end of season one
Warnings: none
Summary: No matter how petty Neal's crime, Peter can't resist getting to the bottom of it.

Why Rec'd? The author's note says that this story was the result of a friend's challenge to "just write something where Neal reads the phone book". The result is a story that's sweet, soft, and sad, in which Peter gets an unexpected insight into Neal's past with Kate and the grief he still feels for her.

Title: Talking Through an Empty Skull
Author: Dragonfly (Mojave Dragonfly)
Spoilers: "Point Blank"
Characters: Neal, Peter, Diana
Pairings: Gen
Warning: None
Summary: After "Point Blank" Neal and Peter have a talk.
Why rec'd? This is an intensely satisfying coda to "Point Blank," delivering all the emotional resolution that was missing from the episode itself. The interplay between Neal and Peter is tense and very well done.


Mods, could we please get a tag for "episode:2x09," please?

Title:  http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6497554/1/If_You_Play_With_Fire
Author:  canadianscanget
Spoilers:  Seasons 1 and 2
Characters:  Peter, Neal, Elizabeth, everyone on the show at some point
Pairings:  None
Warnings:  Violence and Language
Summary:  How did a stolen Rembrandt find its way onto a wall in the FBI? Now it's missing? How far does Peter have to go for Neal? The painting? Neal's history, family and then some.
Why Rec'd:  I came across this story recently and I enjoyed it very much.   It is a good case fic and will keep you involved from beginning to end. It has great friendship and team moments.   It is AU with Neal's history but it is believable. I highly reccomend this story.

Title: Scapegoat
Author: Mouse8
Spoilers: None
Characters: Neal, Peter
Pairings: None

Summary: Peter makes a dismaying discovery on a case. But is all as it seems?
Why rec'd? Wonderfully plotty and intense, where nothing is as it seems. Great H/C and great friendship moments between Neal and Peter.

Title: Titan of Industry
Author: Kiki Cabou
Spoilers: None
Characters: Neal, Peter, Elizabeth
Pairings: None
Warning: Language
Summary: Neal reveals an unusual hobby during a stakeout, and it enriches his life in amazing and amusing ways.

Why rec'd? Because it's cute, and full of friendship and, for me, it actually works. I can totally see Neal doing something like this, and I love that he does it (but I can't say what 'it' is or it'll ruin the surprise ;))

Title: A Corner on the Limbo Market
Author: [archiveofourown.org profile] linman
Characters: Neal Caffrey, Peter Burke
Pairing: Gen
Spoilers: for the S1 finale & S2 premiere
Summary: There were three freshly-painted blank walls in Neal’s new prison cell that were just crying out to be drawn on, and Neal had come by a bit of pencil his first day back. But four days had passed and he still hadn’t figured out what to draw.

Why Rec'd? This is an excellent bridging story between the end of season one and the beginning of season two. It's heartwrenching and honest, and feels like it could fit right into canon.
