Community Recs Post!

Every Thursday, we have a community post, just like this one, where you can drop a rec or five in the comments.

This works great if you only have one rec and don't want to make a whole post for it, or if you don't have a DW account, or if you're shy. ;)

(But don't forget: you can deffo make posts of your own seven days a week. ;D!)

So what cool fanarts/podfics/fics/fancrafts/fanvids/some other kind of fanwork have we discovered this week? Drop it in the comments below. Anon comment is enabled.

BTW, AI fanworks are not eligible for reccing at recthething. If you aware that a fanwork is AI-generated, please do not rec it here.

I've fallen in love with this Thanksgiving Hellcheer fic that I'm praying the author still wants to continue. There's only two chapters but the character voices are so spot on and unfortunately the author is anonymous ): so I can't look for their other stuff

Alone On Thanksgiving? Mad At Your Mom? - G, 7k for now

"I'm going to ruin Thanksgiving."

"Naw," the man immediately says reassuringly. "Nah, c'mon, a sweet gal like you? It'll be fine. You're gonna be okay, I bet you couldn't ruin Thanksgiving if you tried-"

Chrissy pulls out her phone, and hands it over to the stranger in a cavalier act of trust that would probably have sent her fifteen year old self into a panic attack.

She doesn't need to look at the tab onscreen to remember what it says. She's already re-read the craigslist ad enough times to know it by heart.

'I am a 21 year old felon with no high school degree, and a dirty old van a year younger than me painted like Eddie Van Halen's guitar. I can look a few years older if necessary- depends on whether or not I shave. I've been a line cook at every restaurant you've ever been to in Indianapolis at least once, play lead guitar in a metal band, and work late nights at a bar. If you'd like to have me as your strictly platonic date for Thanksgiving, but have me pretend to be in a very long or serious relationship with you so you can torture your family, I'm in.'
