Suggestions?

So, I'm drifting back towards the internets and wondered if people could point me towards some good fics (or communities) in the following fandoms:

Castle
Dollhouse
Watchmen (I've only seen the movie, but I'll be reading the book soon.)
X-men Noir (or Spiderman Noir)

Thanks. :)

Jon's probably one of the most underrepresented characters in fics right now, unfortunately, but there are some excellent fics out there. I would rec all of [livejournal.com profile] i_am_your_spy's fics, especially her "Ordinary World" series. [livejournal.com profile] orangesparks has written some very good fics about rarer pairings and characters.

As for comms, there's:

[livejournal.com profile] watchmenfic
[livejournal.com profile] watchmen_slash
[livejournal.com profile] weekly_watchmen
[livejournal.com profile] owlblot (Dan/Rorschach slash)
[livejournal.com profile] dan_laurie

...and probably more I'm forgetting. (I'd personally recommend starting backwards in the archives and then working forwards...a lot of the post-movie release output is not good.) I'm working on a more comprehensive recs list that I hope to have up in the near future. (And it should be noted that most fics are bookverse.) Hope that helps!

The Watchmen fandom is currently a bit of a vole pit. I'm struggling to find really good fic. [livejournal.com profile] weekly_watchmen does have some promise, I think. There's also [livejournal.com profile] watchdom which is a catch-all community, and there's [livejournal.com profile] newfrontiersmen which is a l33t invitation-only community which is thus far rather lacking in fic, but if it picks up should at least have the benefit of quality control.
