Community Recs Post!

[glitteryv]

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 fanvids/fanart/other kinds of fanworks/podfics/fancrafts/fics 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

Can't believe that January has FIVE weeks this year. Here are some BTS fanworks to cope with that.

FANART

* Turns out he could, indeed, do it by Minky at Bluesky. Warning for NSFW of the sexy kind happening. I love seeing Yoongi getting rewarded by Taehyung's recent buff and increased strength, hehehe.

* Shower Time = Duet Time by drawballa on Bluesky. - Cheeky piece abt Jimin and Jungkook singing while showering much to the delight (?) and chagrin (?) of their fellow soldiers, hahah. Mild Content Warning for nudity (no peen or booty is shown, but just in case.)

* Untitled Seokjin/Jungkook fanart by Meliminart - Sweet moment in some undetermined historical era.

* I'm goddammed lost by meyk96 - Surreal piece based on the already strange MV for RM's song "Lost".

FIC

* last call by wegonchange (Explicit, Yoongi/Taehyung, 34.4k total) - Omegaverse in a fantasy setting fic abt alpha prince!Taehyung falling for omega bartender!Yoongi…even though he (Taehyung) is meant to marry Jimin. Low-angst and fun story.

Some tumblr art recs from me today:
DMBJ/Lost Tomb:
- Happy new year from hei xiazi and his snake friend (wonderful snake, wonderful way to celebrate the Lunar New Year)

Guardian:
- Dark Guardian (dark yet beautiful art of Zhao Yunlan, Shen Wei as the Black Robed Envoy and Da Qing)
- who did this? | it’s not mine part one and part two (Shen Wei and Zhao Yunlan through the years, wonderfully done)

MDZS/The Untamed:
- would you like a Wen Ning in these trying times? (ridiculously cute wen ning)

Merlin
- Merthur Modern AU (gorgeous)

Star Trek Voyager:
- Star Trek Threshold (adorable art done in Lower Decks Style for this silly holiday)

Under the Skin:
- let the light in (cute Shen Yi, Du Cheng and Xiaoxuan the cat art)

Reccing the Nosferatu (2024) Ellen Hutter/Orlok epistolary fic I'm reading right now because of this line from Orlok: If I were a young lady I would quite like it to be resolved quickly and efficiently. Though as I am neither young, nor a lady, correct me if I am off the mark.

Dear Ellen, by Foxtrot (complete | 35,400 | Explicit)

A relationship seen first through letters, then a crossing of the distance.

Two pieces of Merlin Fanart:

Nice work of cosmically linked Merlin and Arthur

I particularly liked this because we got to see all the other characters in the background and there's not much fanart for them:
