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 podfics/fics/fanart/fanvids/fancrafts/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.

mintdr_eam - Heartwarming piece inspired by the "Yet to Come" MV.

* forever seven. Happy 12th birthday my angels by

artofcasmiles - Loved the representation of BTS during Chapter 2, i.e. the solo releases during military enlistment era. Especially the detail of the hot balloon (which is a tip of the hat to Young Forever.)

BangtaNat_Art - Super creative papercraft that shows the members' profiles in fanchant order.

* Namjoon, who is free by

kaseystitches - A cute embroidery with a quote from a post by RM once he was back to civilian life. Plus the bicycle (RM's fave mode of transportation.) ;____;

* BTS is back! by

bloomingdreamco - Adorbs cartoon of the guys.

* The lonely whale isn't lonely anymore by

hunnysvga - A bit of a BTS lore (via the song "Whalien 52"). The whale's new friend (which was first seen during the 2022 Busan concert) is a cutie too.

Elsa_draws - The members in a puppy pile (plus RJ and Wotteo). Awww!

Part 2 - HOPE on the Stage: The Final Day 1

* Home by

vantedraws_ - A good collection of three key moments during Hobi's Day 1 concert: Hobi onstage; Hobi, Jin, and Jungkook performing "Jamais Vu" and acting like fools right afterwards; V, RM, SUGA, and Jimin saying hello to ARMYs when the camera showed them halfway thru the concert.

* we will never give up, forever by

studioagust - What a touching illustration of the seven members. The added lyrics from "Neuron" (one of Hobi's songs) is a sweet detail.

* 2025 is finally here! by

dontworrymochi - ANOTHER sweet moment from Hobi's concert.

* Crocheted Jimin by

knity_knoty - Wearing his fit and glasses to Hobi's concert. Here's a toothachingly cute video of the doll.

MIN YOONGIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

(Additional context: he went to Hobi's concert. This was the first time since September 2023 he'd stepped into the limelight. It was SO AWESOMECAKES to see him have a good time alongside the rest of the members.)

knity_knoty - Crocheted Yoongi wearing the fit for Hobi's concert.

* It is time by

kaseystiches - EXTRA embroidery of a Yoongi meme.

Only managed to find a few tumblr art things to rec this week:

Batman (DCU)
- The Oracle’s hand (love the way the computer circuitry lines mimics spiderwebbing in this)

Discworld
- Nanny Ogg (love this art's take on her and the witches)

Guardian
- Sleepy cats (absolutely adorable art of Da Qing sprawled over Zhao Yunlan with both sacked out, sleeping on the couch)

MDZS/The Untamed
- Lan Wanji's morning hair routine (hilarious comic)

Star Trek: TOS
- Whale Song (love this ST IV: The Voyage Home art)

omg, Nanny Ogg singing the hedgehog song! So fun. :D Love that one and the Star Trek one, thanks for reccing!

I had an absolutely delightful time with these two Ace Attorney fics from Diegetic Exchange:

#DaryanCrescendIsOverParty: The Gavinners' in-universe fandom reacts to Daryan's arrest. Hilariously spot-on fandom drama told through social media posts. T, no archive warnings apply.

Don’t You Think It’s Weird That…: In-universe Gavinners fandom reacts to Klavier/Apollo, a few years after The Daryan Incident. One of the funniest fake Reddit threads I've ever read (and makes me wish there was a real r/gavinnersrpf to scroll through). Also, T, no archive warnings.
