Community Recs Post!

[glitteryv]

Every Thursday, we have a community post, just like this one, where you can drop a rec or two in the comments. This works great if you only have a rec and don't want to make a whole post for it, or if you don't have a DW account to make posts of your own, or if you're shy. ;)

(But don't forget, you're free to make a post seven days a week! :D)

So what cool fic/vid/art have we discovered this week? Drop it in the comments below. Anon comment is enabled.

FANART

Context for this batch of fanarts: a 4-min. video of Yoongi learning to sword dance for his "Daechwita" mv dropped. Ppl got inspired like whoa. My faves out of all the tons stuff that got posted:

* A black & white version by kr_yoongi

* In color by DreamsforHani

* Another B&W (that is more stylized) by rinee_rin

* Another color design by DDbts_0504

* The one with the striking blue background by OneEightO

* Kitten!Yoongi by bts_suga20



FICS


* Hands-On Learning by pornographicpenguin (Explicit, Taehyung/Yoongi, 22.3k) - While on a really bad date, Yoongi runs into a weird-yet-handsome guy.

A tasty PWP featuring Taehyung at his weirdest and a Yoongi who finds an outlet for his complicated desires. Do heed the CWs because this fic goes IN with the kinks mentioned below.

CW: Exhibitionism and voyeurism; Consensual (but mild) humiliation; Undernegotiated kink.

TW: Mentions and discussion of depression

Summary: “Computer, what the hell is that?”
“Salamandra atra — a species of hyper-evolved salamander marked by increased brain capacity and lack of vestigial organs. Last Federation contact by the USS Voyager in 2372.”
Reccer's Note: Did you watch Lower Decks and wonder how Anthony, that character we saw for like one second, got turned into a salamander? Did you celebrate Threshold Day this past week? Than this might be the fic for you. Seriously this fun fic gives us Anthony's backstory, and finds a way to incorporate the Threshold babies!

[glitteryv]

Ihni what any of that means, but Threshold Day sure sounds fun. ^___^

[kingstoken]

Threshold day is a made up fandom day that celebrates what many consider to be the worst episode in the Star Trek: Voyager canon "Threshold", where two of the main characters got changed into giant salamanders and had salamander babies. It is one of those episodes that is so bad it is good.

[glitteryv]

Ah, such a joyful thing! Thank you for telling me abt it. :)

Additional Tags: Alternate Universe - Modern Setting, Alternate Universe - Still Have Powers, Kid Fic, dadneto
Summary:

Charles managed to bear three nights of constant wails from the apartment next door before he finally caved and knocked sharply on the door of his new neighbour. He was rewarded with the sight of the sleepy man framed in soft light of the doorway, his handsome face creased with tiredness, and his clothes rumpled and askew. A babe of four months or so was cradled against his chest, matching her cries to the dulcet tones of another infant behind them in the apartment.

Plastering his most winning smile on his face, Charles tried to keep the balance between reassuring and forceful. "Erik, get Pietro and sit down with both of the children on your sofa. I'll make up two bottles and we'll feed them together, and then you need to get some sleep."

His neighbour didn't move, blocking the doorway and scowling suspiciously. "Who the fuck are you?" he hissed.

Summary:

“You always look up,” Steve says, glancing sideways at Sam.

Sam blinks, caught off guard without knowing quite why. “What?”

“When we – when you go outside. You look up at the sky, just for a second.” Steve looks embarrassed now, his shoulders hunched over like he's trying to make himself look small.

Right.

Sam doesn't know how to answer that, not without revealing a lot more of himself than he's comfortable with.

[glitteryv]

A bouquet of recs from different fandoms!

That Sam/Steve is pretty solid.
