"Hold hands? Call each other Meggypoo and Ronniekins? I don't think we'll need a mature audiences only tag." Veronica brought out the smile. "I think we'd make an adorable couple."
Meg smiled at that. "We would, wouldn't we?"
I'm reccing this because...it is immensely cute and hits both characters spot on. Veronica is charming and funny. Meg is sweet and lovely. And they do indeed make an adorable couple.

From Silence by Snoe - Veronica/Meg - Veronica was on the bus. Conversations shared by the nearly dead.
The blonde blinked again, eyes barely opening before closing again. Veronica drew in a deep breath and coughed, face scrunching up before she opened her eyes again. Blinking a few times, Veronica finally focused on Meg's face above her and frowned.
“How much did we have to drink?” she croaked, trying to assess their current position.
I'm reccing this because...I like AUs involving season 2's storyline. And Veronica is a great mixture of defensive, sarcastic and hurting. Meg is a nice blend of bitter and resigned...and a tiny bit hopeful.

And here you thought only Wallace daydreamed of seducing cheerleaders.
I'm reccing this because...it taps right into my 'Veronica as Meg's Knight-in-Shining-Armour' fetish ;)

You forgot it in people by

Meg’s mouth on hers feels completely natural, and also very new. It’s not like kissing Lilly – kissing Lilly was almost like kissing a sister, even before her parentage was in question. It’s simpler, dry instead of slippery, soft instead of bittersweet with age.
I'm reccing this because...I like the little glimpses into their summer together. And I like the way it ends.

Waves by

The creaking of the floorboards was what made her aware that someone else had now joined her on the deck, and even without looking, she instantly knew who it was. Because suddenly the air around her felt lighter and even fresher than it already was, and her heart was beating ten thousand beats a minute. Her lips quirked upwards in a smile, and she patted the ground next to her in invitation. There was more creaking, and Veronica felt the floorboards sink slightly as Meg lay down next to her.
I'm reccing this because...I love a good bit of angst.

Save yourself by
![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
Veronica props her head up on her hands and starts to play with a strand of Meg's long blond hair. She opens her mouth like she's about to speak but sucks a great big breath of air in instead. Meg almost puts her finger in that mouth, because it looks warm and because she doesn't feel close enough to Veronica - even though every part of their bodies are touching under the warm blanket – but she doesn’t.
I'm reccing this because...it's not hugely shippy, but has lovely shippy moments smattered throughout.

Reach out (and touch faith) by

She also didn’t expect Meg to sacrifice the 09er buddy list for her.
I'm reccing this because...for so short a fic, it manages to evoke a realistic development of a relationship.

Plastic sheets with love hearts by awakeningjenny - Veronica/Meg - Veronica makes Meg's insides dissolve.
She barely spares me a glance, but she does so with a half smile, and my insides do that tightening thing they’re so fond of when they get the look. Only from Veronica, though, I’ve tested it out. The glances and the grins don’t do anything, when they come from Duncan. Which, yes, is a problem, seeing as he’s my boyfriend.
I'm reccing this because...I like the thought of Meg acknowledging her gooey feelings for Veronica. Hell, they're clear to see on her face every time she looks at her on the show!
Come On Now, Sugar by

And we weren't even doing anything that incriminating yet, just two girls trying on scandalous underwear and happening to kiss. Deeply. Somewhat frantically.
I'm reccing this because...it's kinda hot. Even though it's mostly Meg acting as a fluffer for Veronica and Logan.

Completion by Lavenderangel - Veronica/Meg, Veronica/Lilly, Veronica/Mac - Summary
“I… just… please…” Meg’s other hand cups her face, the heat of her skin starting at Veronica’s cheek and swirling everywhere all at once. The car is quiet and their breaths mix as they draw closer. Veronica wishes she could describe the look in Meg’s eyes as their lips meet for a brief instant, but too much is reflecting back at her, most of it Veronica’s exact feelings. The kind she keeps locked away for fear they might break her.
I'm reccing this because...it takes three relationships and blends them through Veronica's eyes.

Efficient by
![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
Veronica is never quite sure why it is always the dead girls, the girls she has lost, that make her cross her legs and bite down on her thumb, bringing her whole hand up to her face so that she looks pensive and engaged rather than turned on.
I'm reccing this because...it has Meg and Lilly doing stuff to Veronica :)

Through the Looking Glass by rachel_shanz - Veronica/Logan, but with femslashy hints - Lilly has a magic sex mirror.
“He has a nice ass, doesn’t he?” Lilly asked, nudging Meg with her shoulder. “He’s filled out a little since I died, I’d love to run my tongue over the abs he has now.”
Meg sighed in defeat, she had a feeling that she wasn’t going to get out of Lilly’s voyeuristic little world anytime soon. And it was certainly distracting, and fascinating. Not that Meg would ever admit that.
I'm reccing this because...it's a slightly (OK, very) cracky look at Lilly and Meg in limbo with a magic mirror, allowing them to see the living. Lilly is delightfully devious and snarky and Meg is kind of heart-breakingly lovely.

And they were all kinds of fucked by
![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
A part of Meg hated Veronica for putting her through this. She wouldn’t have minded the idea of doing this with any other man but knowing Veronica had gone out of her way to make sure it was Logan was what hurt her the most.
I'm reccing this because...I'm not sure. Part of me doesn't want to. Part of me hates Veronica in it (actually, most of me hates Veronica in it). And yet here it is. Because I kind of love the idea of Logan and Meg and Veronica, totally fucked up in their approach to their triangular relationships, but needing each other in some way. Veronica's attitude is sort of explained in the two continuations, but still she frustrates the hell out of me! Aaaaargh! I can't look away!!!
Thank you to
