If You See a Shadow by Annakovsky
Olivia/Elliot - Sloanesomething, Annakovsky and some others have started an Olivia/ Elliot AU tag game. Some of the best results are recced here. This story: well, there's something about the whole 'throw each other up against the wall' scenario that really suits this pair. Sexy and wrong - all those good things.

Olivia/Elliot - A sexy story where everyone is sexually frustrated and no one has sex - well, not with each other. There's a lot of clever dialogue and all perfectly in keeping with the character.

Untitled 2 by sloanesomething
Olivia/Elliot - Whatever happened to good old fashioned titles, I ask you? in this AU Olivia goes into the witness protection programme instead of Alex and Elliot suffers the aftermath. All the best of the genre from the girl who coined the term, "aaaannngstcakes".

A Dame Longer and a Beer Shorter (An Elliot Stabler, P.I. Tale) by Bantha Fodder
Olivia/Elliot - The title says it all really. Stabler is the quintessential PI - marital problems, drinking problems and all too much of a loner - except for his girl Olivia. A deliciously fun romp in an alternate universe while still being essentially about the same people.

Control by TangledAria
Nicole/Bobby, AU - if things had been different (very different) Bobby and Nicole might have teamed up to screw the world over but good - and Alex would be left following the devastation in their wake. A compelling riff on the fine line between genius and sociopathy.

The Heart, The Heart, The Heart by TangledAria
Bobby/Nicole. Nicole gets to Bobby and maybe Bobby likes it. In this short piece Tangledaria works out all the intricacies of the Bobby/Nicole/Eames triangle.

The Efficiency of Empty Spaces by Sloanesomething
Olivia/Elliot - Elliot's marriage has fallen apart and his relationship with Olivia just gets more compicated. This is a story full of details, little things that bring scenes alive.

(Law & Order: SVU)
Habitual by Sloanesomething
Olivia/Elliot - Olivia and Elliot might be sleeping together but that doesn't solve anything. Memories collide with reality in this short piece that lives up to its name.

Hearts and Swords by Mandy
Bobby and Nicole play mind games and the winner gets Eames. A very credible and clever portrait of the Bobby/Nicole "hold me, kiss me, kill me" relationship.

Definite by s.a., Focus by s.a., Trepidation by s.a.
These three little Law and Order vignettes by s.a. go so well together. Completely unrelated but connected by their 'slice of life' tone. If you've ever felt like you wanted to know more of the Law and Order characters, s.a.'s characterisations are right on the money and very appealing.

Never Again by s.a.
I was struck by the simplicity of this: moments in Jack's life were left in dispute. A striking fic for a striking show.

Things I Remember About Me by Luna
This is beautifully melancholy and a fabulous portrait of Alex post-"Loss." The immensely popular Alex/Olivia pairing is handled with unique insight that true A/O fans will love but anyone can appreciate.

My City of Rain by Not Jenny
Not Jenny is a common name on this list, which we make no apology for. She has an incredible ability to take the smallest moments in relationships and imbue them with significance. This story is particularly interesting in that it's the rather unusual Olivia/Casey pairing.

nous sommes tous les gourmands by Not Jenny
Not Jenny turns her attention to Olivia/ Elliot - a problematic story for an SVU writer but one that is well suited to a writer who loves a complex relationship. For those of you who love your relationships messy.

Establish Dominance by Sage
Stabler and Huang and it shouldn't work but it works SO well. God, I LOVE mind-fucking and body fucking combined. And this is a glorious example.

Incomplete Information by Nicole Clevenger
I love the details in this story about details. But I especially love Bobby's "ambiguous smile" at the end because it's so very Bobby and the image is just fantastic.

Sorrow and Silence by Nicole Clevenger
Lovely characterisation of the duo here. A very visual story - easy to see both characters doing what they are doing. And a gorgeous ending.

Eyes Forward, Shoulders Back by Tahlia
I had thoughts about writing a L & O: CI fic but this story pretty much said everything I wanted to say. This is a couple with way too many problems to ever have carefree interaction. A perfectly complex story about two very complex characters. In this story they are irresistable.

Actions, Reactions by Nicole Clevenger
Oh lovely. Bittersweet and lovely. And What a wonderful visual that last paragraph is. Finished with a flourish.
