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 fancrafts/fanvids/fics/podfics/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.

Reccing a few more things from battleshipex today (creators still anon, there's so much more good stuff in this collection than I've recced, I just kept forgetting to keep track of links while perusing it)

Art:

Dredge (Video Game)
- [Art] Sunset Scene Summary: A small atmospheric piece.(absolutely beautiful, no canon knowledge needed digital art piece)

Moby Dick - Herman Melville
- [Art] The Ghost Hunter AU Summary: No-dialogue comic imagining if the events of the book were loosely adapted into a found footage horror piece centered on Ahab's quest to prove the existence of the spirit Moby-Dick. (so many details in this comic and so well done!)

Original Work
- [Art] The Tower Sumary: A mermaid is... happy to see the lighthouse keeper she's been watching. (beautiful, if slightly creepy charcoal/chalk/pastels on paper piece)
- [Art] Monster in 8B Summary: The shadows aren't cruel. (amazingly creepy)

Fic:

Eureka/Stargate SG1 crossover
- Bugs in the System Summary: SG-1's visit to Eureka has some unexpected results. (Jack Carter and Sam Carter are cousins and amazing in this)

Leverage/DCU crossover
- https://archiveofourown.org/works/68406316" target="_blank">They Meet Again Summary: At a charity gala, Bruce Wayne meets a beautiful woman he's run into many, many times before. (great Bruce voice and so many neat little details)

Star Trek Lower Decks
- Battlesheep Potemkin Summary: First officer's log, stardate, uh, computer, add the stardate in. The Cerritos is responding to a distress call from the USS Potemkin, an Excelsior-class starship that was exploring the Gra'pe-2025 system. Upon arrival, we found Potemkin adrift in orbit of the third planet, which is currently surrounded by an ion storm. There is no sign of the crew. However, the ship is filled with hundreds of strange mammalian life-forms. (hilarious)

I read these very good fics lately and I don't know if I can make a whole post about them but here they go:

steam-soft by CaptainDebil. League of Legends, Aphelios/Sett, Explicit. 4.9k words. Excellent smut, no other words.

Andrew and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day by gluupor. All for the Game, Neil/Andrew, Mature. 3.7k words. Outstanding time-loop fic that really drove the point home of the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day.

stay close, stay away by unalteredgraces. All for the Game, Kevin/Jean, Explicit. 27k words. Absolutely stunning Kevin character study with the best kevjean storyline I've read so far.

Awesome recs are awesome (and welcomed!) :D

Some groovy BTS fanarts. 😛

* Star boy by mikrokosmoschi_ - A now CANONICAL piece based on Jin wearing a black undershirt. Pre-2025 ARMYs would've never thought of seeing him showing ARMS AND SHOULDERS IRL. Look at us now!

* Hot sale by amvuui - Cute Jin being the spokesperson of a Korean tuna company (which is an actual thing, btw, LOL.)

* Untitled J-Hope portrait by hopestudio__ - GORGEOUS. Love all of the gold details.

* The star and his first love by hopelissd - RM and Jungkook smushing their faces together in such a sweet way. I really liked seeing the shining hearts in both of their pupils, heheh.

* small sketch of lovers by mashamofu -- Chapter 2 Vmin VMMINING. >:)
