Community Recs Post!
Nov. 5th, 2020 02:10 pmEvery Thursday, we have a community recs post, 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, if you don't have a DW account to make posts of your own, or if you're just shy. :)
(But don't forget, you're also welcome to post recs directly to the comm seven days a week. :D)
So, what cool fic/art/vid have we discovered this week? Drop it in the comments below! Anon comments are enabled.

Summary: The Lans agree to take in the DafanWen after Wei Wuxian rescues them from Qiongli Path. Their only condition: that Wei Wuxian lets himself be purified of resentful energy. Lan Wangji thinks this is how he will finally get his Wei Ying back, free from demonic influences. Wei Wuxian thinks this is a fancy way of saying "execution." (The Wen remnants are saved, but at what cost? This fic's ending is left open and somewhat devastated me)
family by antebunny (8k)
Summary: Wei Wuxian takes the Wens to Lotus Pier before the Burial Mounds, even though he doesn't expect Jiang Cheng to protect them. Wen Qing offers his secret in exchange for their safety. (And I love that between Wen Qing and Jiang Yanli they nearly save everyone)
不忘 | Don't Forget by dragongirlG (50k)
Summary snippet: Wei Wuxian falls into the Burial Mounds and unknowingly lands two thousand years in the future. (really interesting cultivation, reincarnation and canon divergence fic)
this river runs to you by sundiscus (series- first fic is 53k, second 4k)
Summary: In which Wei Wuxian is a curse worker secretly searching for a lost dragon, Lan Wangji is his new assistant, and the two things may not be entirely unrelated. (Brilliant world building and working canon plot points into an AU)
Not Yet (There As Needed) by sunrise_and_death (AO3 locked) 13k
Summary snipped: A meditation on family and the merits of communication, courtesy of Lan Sizhui. (Wonderful interactions between Lan juniors and Jin Ling and WWX)
(Someday I will read things other than The Untamed and MDZS fics and be able to rec different fandoms. Someday)

FICS
It's Getting Hard (This Holding Back) (Explicit, Yoongi/Jungkook, 3.5k) and Gotta Handle You Just Right (Explicit, Seokjin/Yoongi, 3.1k) by
The second fic is a prequel in which we get to see what happens when Yoongi ends up trying on the tentacle dildo on Seokjin.
Although both fics are part of a series, you really don't need to read the first story to understand these two. For one thing, the first story is v. low in explicit content. Also, the focus of it is on a romantic relationship for another ship.
In short, feel free to skip the first fic in the series if you're in the mood for something porny.
* Make It Look So Easy by
For such a short fic, it builds up enough plot to make you go "Ooooh".

Fandom: Supernatural
Rating: M
Warnings: Non-explicit Sex, Hell Trauma
Relationships: Adam/Michael
Summary: Michael's already got a failed life behind him and a hell-bound future in front of him, alright? He doesn't need a fucking demon, of all things, constantly following him around.
The demon doesn't seem to care.
Reccer's Note: Switching characters around and putting them in different roles is often an interesting concept. In this fic Michael is a human hunter, who has sold his soul and Adam is a demon. I really enjoyed this, it is just snippets of scenes between these two characters, but it really made me want more of them and this universe
