Author: Pilgrimmi
Spoilers: Mild ones for 5x02
Characters: David Siegel, Neal, Peter
Pairings: none

Be Worth It by little purple butterflies

Title: Be Worth It
Author: little purple butterflies
Spoilers: 1x02
Word Count: 3518
Characters: Reese Hughes (POV). Neal, Lauren and Peter appear (in voice only for latter two), Jones and other agents are mentioned in the background.
Pairings: Gen.
Summary: Normally Hughes was a good judge of character. With Neal though, Reese learned, there was more than meets the eye. Set during the scene in the park near the end of 1x02 'Threads'.

Why rec'd?: This really feels like Hughes and how he might think about Caffrey at this stage, with a mix of suspicion and maybe the start of grudging respect.

Author:

china_shop
Spoilers: Big ones for 5x13!
Characters: Neal, Kate
Pairings: Neal/Kate

Why rec'd? It's pretty much impossible to talk about this short fic without spoiling either the fic or the end of the season, but this is a lovely and unexpected outcome to the season cliffhanger!

Old Words from Far Away by elrhiarhodan

Title: Old Words from Far Away
Author:

elrhiarhodan
Fandom: White Collar
Rating: PG
Characters/Pairings: Peter Burke, Neal Caffrey
Spoilers: S4.01
Warnings/Enticements/Triggers: None
Word Count: ~2700
Summary: Neal needs to tell Peter something, so he writes him a letter.
Why Recc'd: Because it's such a beautiful idea for how to go from 'Judgment Day' to being together. It's romantic but not schmoopy. It's just a delightful read.

Paying Forward by Rainey13

Title: Paying Forward
Author: Rainey13
Spoilers: Episode 2x14 Payback
Characters: Peter, Elizabeth, Neal, Diana, Jones, Hughes
Pairings: Canon levels of Peter and Elizabeth
Warning: None
Summary: Following up on the episode "Payback" - Peter and Elizabeth come to terms with what Neal gave up during the case. And Neal and Diana face the consequences for violating the "no negotiation" rule.
Why rec'd? This story always makes me feel good everytime I read it. I love the friendship and love feeling of it. Rainey13 is an excellent author and I love the way she writes the characters. This feels like a natural extension of that episode.

Glimpses by Sandra S

Title: Glimpses
Author: Sandra S
Spoilers: up to 1x10 as of the latest update
Characters: all of them (but largely Peter and Neal)
Pairings: gen with canon pairings
Warning: none
Summary: A collection of short - sometimes very short - episode-tags for Season 1.

Why rec'd? This is a neat series of short missing scenes for each episode, progressing chronologically through the season (it just reached 1x10). While the series itself is a WiP, each of the tags is stand-alone. The author has a talent for finding little-explored corners of canon and doing interesting things with them.

Undertow by Frith-in-Thorns

Title: Undertow
Author:

frith_in_thorns
Spoilers: for 3x16
Characters: Neal, Mozzie, some Peter and Elizabeth, OCs
Pairings: gen
Warning: torture (offscreen/implied), kids in danger
Summary: Set post-finale. Neal's drifting, but Mozzie's found an opportunity to take advantage of, one that on the surface doesn't look too risky. Of course, appearances can be deceiving.
(Full disclosure: I beta'd this fic, though I was not otherwise involved with its creation.)

Why rec'd? This is a really wonderful post-finale fic - great plot with lots of action, a very likable OC, and an excellent character study of Neal and his relationships with both Mozzie and Peter.

Fic: Chasing Clouds by Slipstream77 (gen)

Title: Chasing Clouds
Author: Slipstream77
Spoilers: Big ones for 3x16
Characters: Peter (with appearances by Diana, June)
Pairings: None
Warning: None
Summary: Peter knew Diana probably thought he was in shock. And maybe he was. But not for the reasons she thought. The immediate aftermath of "Judgment Day."

Why rec'd? This is a very convincing look at Peter right after the end of 3x16, trying to balance his need to do his job with his friendship for Neal, and reflecting on the tangled mess of events that have brought them here. I thought it was very fair to all the characters and the complexities of their situation.

Title: Coming Home
Author:

kriadydragon
Spoilers: for 3x16
Characters: Peter, Neal, Elizabeth
Pairings: canon levels of Peter/Elizabeth, but basically gen
Warning: none
Summary: Peter has someone important he needs to pick up. Written for this prompt at

collarcorner.

Why rec'd? This is a particularly neat "fix" for the end of 3x16, and a really lovely glimpse of Neal and Peter's friendship.

Title: Pertinent Information
Author:

Spoilers: 1x13 "Front Man"
Characters: Peter Burke, Neal Caffrey
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.

Title: Breathe, Keep Breathing
Author:

rabidchild67
Spoilers: 3x08 (As You Were)

Talking Through an Empty Skull by Dragonfly

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?

A Corner on the Limbo Market by Linman

Title: A Corner on the Limbo Market
Author:

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.
