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

A 2-4-1 Fanart EXTRAVAGANZAAA! 😛

[glitteryv]

ARTMYS posted a bounty of awesome pieces in celebration of Feb 14th and 18th. 😘

💕VALENTINE'S DAY!!!💕

2025!Taehyung portrait by Wingu_Moon - V bringing flowers AND being a cutie, what more can one ask for?

couple outfit? by bochuu97 - Seokjin/Yoongi being too adorbs for words.

Valentine's Day by 95z_supremacy - Leave it to Vmin to bring the DRAHMAZ and look hot at the same time. >:)

Untitled Namjin piece by Sweetbriichan - RM seranading with his saxophone is already a win. This fanart will give you a toothache, heheh.

let's put the <> in friends by mintdr_earn - Nothing like OT6 doing their best at wooing Taehyung via his solo song. :DDDD

🥳HOBI'S BIRTHDAY!🥳

Stay Hopeful by milubee_ - What a sweet portrait.

...so fine you blow my mind by aceaone - Another cuuuute B&W pencil.

Happy J-Hope Day by htn_____3 - Hobi's literal happiness, NGL.

J-Hope portrait by yoongeesus - I loooove all of the 1994 (Hobi's birth year) details down to the font!

Untitled J-Hope piece by syublight - Excellent use of graphic design.

Untitled J-Hope portrait by hopestudio__ - WOW AT THEM COLORS!

Hope right here by Guzrogal - Another FANTASTIC papercraft from this v. talented artist.

Untitled Knit AND Papercraft pieces by koto_SJ_andILU - The creativity level is at an all-time high!

Hope you made a wish while I was falling by kohingl - That red background is so eye-catching! I also dig how it makes Hobi's portrait stand out even more.

25218 Weverse Live by omochi_plyopiyo - What a cute doodle of that moment during Hobi's birthday livestream when he had an almost 5-min phone convo with Jimin and Jungkook. It's so clever how it showcases Hobi's giddiness at talking to them, Jungkook being (physically) huge nowadays, and Jimin's intensely red face (from the excitement and embarrassment of talking to ARMY while serving in the Korean military).

Happiest birthday to our Sunshine by BangtaNat_Art - A papercraft-lightbox fanwork of AWESOMECAKINES. Kudos to the artist for including a minute-long video showing all the different pieces and the set-up of the final thing.

A minute and 8 video of 215 fanarts by 144 ARMYs for Hobi's 2022 Lollapalooza's performance of "Equal Sign" by VARIOUS artists (there are full credits at the beginning and end of the video.) - I'm BITING MY FIST CUZ THIS IS SO WONDERFUL, INSPIRING, AWE-INDUCING, AND BRAIN-MELTINGLY GOOD

There's lots of great things in the Candy Hearts collection this year. I haven't had a lot of time to poke at it, but so far a few things I've found are (creators still anon):

Art:
Dracula
- Kittens, Puppies and Good Mornings Summary: Lucy being in love with all of Dracula's forms and shapes (loved this)

Guardian
- You Lick It Summary: A more thorough demonstration. (true to its 'this is only about 5 percent more suggestive than this scene already is in canon' tag of the Ye Old Haixing Era lollipop scene)

Original Work
- [Art] Mother and Little Rainbow. Summary: Mother and baby orangutan (absolutely darling)

Sherlock Holmes (1984 TV)
- Heal Thyself - Summary: Watson is sick. Holmes takes care of him. (Tender and gorgeous)

Word of Honor
- Flirt (absolutely perfect a Wen Kexing and Zhou Zishu)

and fic:

The Addams Family Movies
- The Heart of an Addams is Hard to Refuse (they will hunt you down and throw it through your window) Summary: Wednesday Addams is not good enough for Stella Glicker's son. (perfect Addams humor)

due South
- Wolves Are Wiser Summary: You rescue a human once, and you pay, and pay, and pay. (absolutely perfect Dief POV)

The Great Mouse Detective
- A Somewhat Tangled Tail Summary: The problem is always the tail. Not necessarily mine or yours. (wonderful little casefic)

CH Recs and a Bonus Rec: Star Wars and Silm

[ambiguityisnoonesfriend]

candyheartsex has a lot of great fics this round! Reccing my wonderful gifts and another

Balancing Act, SW Rebels, Kanan/Hera, 1k

A wonderful slice of life as Kanan and Hera raise a baby while trying to save the galaxy from the Empire. Warm and fuzzy in the best ways.

Bonus rec: love is a doing word by lastwingedthing, SW Rebels, Kanan/Hera, 10k

Another gift from a while back along those same themes with lovely, lyrical writing.

Never Saw It Coming, SW Sequels + Rebels, Poe & Ben & Jacen, 5k

I can never get enough of these three as teens/tweens causing trouble together and this delivers all the angst and growing pains and surliness you'd expect from kids who grew up in the shadow of their heroic parents.

time will be the judge of what you deserve, Finn/Kylo, 13k

FN-2187 has caught the attention of his headcase boss during a mission and naturally this leads to hurt/comfort and huddling for warmth on Hoth. As you do.

which thou maybe shalt heal, The Silmarillion, Elrond & Elros & Elwing/Eärendil, 1k

A gracefully written look at the family during their time at Sirion when the twins need help healing an injured bird.
