Re: For everyone disagreeing with this secret...
(Anonymous) 2013-03-24 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)16 Days In Semptember: Nate Fick decides to take a year off before graduate school and join the Peace Corps. Set in referendum-era Indonesia.
http://archiveofourown.org/works/276641/chapters/438397
Lieutenant Nate Fick is a UN military observer in Jerusalem. Staff Sergeant Brad Colbert is a peacekeeper waiting to be transfered to Egypt. Together they're caught up in the events of the Third Arab-Israeli War.
Just because your lazy ass can't discern doesn't mean it's not out there.
Fanfic's a lot of crap, but what's good is often even better than published -- you're allowed to explore things and the boundaries set up by publishing houses don't exist. No limits.

(Anonymous) 2013-03-24 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)Don't You Shake Alone is a good example of what I mean by my last statement. Nominally it's kid!fic but it's also a nuanced exploration of both single fatherhood and PTSD. Find me any publishing company who has a niche to fill that's going to take that one well at face value.
Another example of fanfic transcending genre boxes, if you want a popular fandom is The Anatomist, Sherlock. Molly as Moriarty's sister. http://rosa-acicularis.livejournal.com/30916.html#cutid1
