Jan. fic recs, deancas_xmas

It's been so long since I've read these and it was only a few months ago I started putting a * next to fics I liked, even in the 'amazing' folder there are some fics that are just a one-time read or incredible compared to other fics I'd read at the time. Now it's more, amazing if it was amazing, * if it was one of the better ones, ** if I'll read it again, *** if it blew my mind...some even have ***** depnding on the fic...I've tried to limit it to ** though.

I'll have to re-read these at some point and label accordingly...in the meantime,
