[personal profile] glitteryv posting in [community profile] recthething
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 podfics/fanarts/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.

* Yeah, this post is going up abt 12-hrs early due to me being unexpectedly afk all day tomorrow. 😅

I don't tend to properly bookmark something until it's finished updating, so I thought maybe this would be a good spot to rec WiPs I'm subscribed to that updated this week.

Pretty (Awful) Man by [archiveofourown.org profile] StedeBunnett (Our Flag Means Death, Modern AU, Izzy Hands/Lucius Spriggs, rated E, 24k words to date) is now up to 7 chapters of a Pretty Woman AU. It preserves the canon age gap but plays with the power dynamics in a fun way by casting Lucius—a young entrepreneur who just made it big with an inclusive lingerie business—as the millionaire sugar daddy and Izzy as the sex worker he inadvertently picks up while trying to ask directions. After a hot Boyfriend Experience encounter, Lucius hires Izzy to keep him company during his business trip and to pose as a business associate so that the older investors he's pitching to will take him seriously. The two then end up bonding over shared experiences of moving in circles they don't feel at home in and playing roles in their work lives.

This is a sweet, good-natured story so far, featuring an Izzy who's actually doing pretty well in life, with a career under his own control, but whose usual way of doing things is thrown off-kilter by a client who wants something different than the usual slap and tickle—and a Lucius who's new to navigating power dynamics where he has the upper hand.
