13* Recommended by {{Tropers/tictactoe}}
14* ''Comments'': Originally based on Livejournal before transferring to Dreamwidth. While not explicitly a kink meme, plenty of smut alongside gen posts, and as much Martin whump as you could ever possibly want. Good quality fic, and for such a small fandom, surprisingly active. Pinboard archive accessed [[http://pinboard.in/u:cabinpressure-fic here]].

20* ''Status'': Complete
21* Summary: ''"My point is," Douglas goes on, "if you force us to ditch this plane in the north Atlantic, which is currently thirty-five thousand feet below us at a temperature only barely above the freezing point of water, then I want you to know exactly what it is you're doing."''
22* Comments: Short, spare and beautifully in-character, despite the situation. If you read one fic in this fandom, read this one.

32* Recommended by {{Tropers/tictactoe}}
33* ''Status'': Complete
34* Summary: Written for a prompt on the kinkmeme. Martin has a man he considers his boyfriend, but said boyfriend is a nasty piece of work who treats Martin appallingly. With a little help along the way from MJN, Martin begins to move on and find happiness.
35* Pairing: Martin/OMC
36* ''Comments'': This troper isn't personally attracted to OC fics, especially if it involves shipping with a canon character, but this fic is really good. The premise of Martin being trapped in an abusive relationship isn't over sentimentalised, and the after-effects on later relationships aren't simply brushed under the carpet - it's sensitively and maturely dealt with. And there's a happy ending for Martin! (Always a bonus). There is also a short follow-up oneshot called [[http://archiveofourown.org/works/283119 What You Find There]] which I'd also recommend.

39* Recommended by Gloriana
40* ''Status'': Complete
41* ''Summary'': The MJN crew has to take an engaged couple to a party in San Tropez, but the couple's behavior does little to soothe Martin's current romantic worries. In an effort to buck him up, the rest of the crew share their own stories of romance past, and all the travails that came with them. Takes place after "Xinzhou" but before "Yverdon-les-Bains."
42* Pairings: Martin/Theresa, mainly, but mentions of Douglas/First Wife, Douglas/Second Wife, Carolyn/Gordon, and Carolyn/Herc
43* ''Comments'': This story is written to be as much like just another episode of the series as possible. It fits with canon, imitates John Finnemore's style as a writer, and is even in audio script form. It nails the characters' voices and is very funny. It really is like having an extra ep in the series!

49* ''Status'': Complete
50* Crossover with {{TV/Sherlock}}, but with only a few brief mentions of any main Sherlock characters aside from Henry.
51* Summary: Henry Knight doesn't think ever he'll find anyone. He's too shy, awkward, still dreams of red-eyed hounds. Then he meets Martin Crieff, equally as shy and awkward, who is dealing with his own monsters. It doesn't take long before they fall in love.
52* Pairings: Henry/Martin, obviously, but with a hint of post-Fall Johnlock later on.
53* ''Comments'': An adorable story - it WILL make you want to hug them both, even if (like me) Henry Knight annoyed the stuffing out of you in Reichenbach for being whiny and annoying. Honestly, this is the fic that made me ship Martin/Henry, illogical as it sounds. Some of the author's other excellent works (Cabin Pressure and otherwise) can be found [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1156526/ here]].

57* ''Status'': Dormant
58* Summary: Martin must be the worst Avatar ever.
59* Pairing: Gen of course! At least according to the tags.
60* ''Comments'': Amazing and very much IC in every way despite giving Martin such immense power; he still has the worst of luck. Its a WIP but don't let that discourage you.
