[personal profile] glitteryv posting in [community profile] recthething
Every Thursday, we have a community recs 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 to make posts of your own, 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 fanart/fic/podfic/vid have we discovered this week? Leave a comment below. Anon comment is enabled.

Inserting Gator Loki into things always makes it better!

Back to Untamed/MDZS recs from me today (how shocking, I know!):

I could drink a case of you and still be on my feet by failedcharismacheck (7k)
Summary snippet: Wei Wuxian comes back from his walkabout. Lan Wangji gives Emperor's Smile another try and worries for his friend's dietary habits. (utterly delightful and adorable post-canon fic)

小兔子 | Little Bunny by dragongirlG (5.5k)
Summary: Three times Lan Qiren repaired a rabbit doll named Little Bunny: once for seven-year-old Lan Zhan on the anniversary of his mother's death, once for teenage Lan Wangji after he returns to the rebuilt grounds of the Cloud Recesses, and once for A-Yuan after he's taken into the Lan clan. (so sweet and tender)

long is the way by queen_gee (2k)
Summary: He cannot lie and he does not want to. He plays his own name like a whisper. Wei Ying.

Lan Wangji's breath hitches. His eyes are open but they are unreadable, a flash of gold in the pale moonlight. He hesitates for one moment like he does not know what to ask, perhaps as if he has too many questions. Wei Wuxian waits for the accusation, the resentment.

The guqin sounds more like a cry as Lan Wangji plays, Are you at peace. (Oh so painful but touching canon divergent AU)

Fanart:

Luke & Lorelai by [tumblr.com profile] megancrow (Gilmore Girls, Luke/Lorelai)
This art is so cute! I love their expressions. :D

Fanfic:

How a cat got Bucky a date by [archiveofourown.org profile] bioloyg (MCU, Sam/Bucky, G, 1565w)
She’s tortoise shell and reminds Bucky of a peanut butter cup. Her chest rumbles as she purrs in satisfaction and her single front paw kneads at the air. Whoever left her outside in that box was a monster. Bucky is just glad that it was early fall, otherwise she might’ve died of heat exhaustion. He shivers slightly at the thought and rocks her gently in the crook of his prosthetic arm.
~
The fic in which Bucky has a soft spot for kittens, Steve thinks Bucky should tell his landlord, and Sam is a gorgeous vet that everyone loves.

This is too cute for words! Bucky with a cat never gets old and I loved his dynamic with both Steve and Sam.

Where the Heart is Fixed by [archiveofourown.org profile] fluffernutter8 (MCU, Steve/Peggy, PG-13, 7015w)
1946. Nurse and newly trained midwife Peggy Carter finds her move from the Second World War battlefield to the East End of London to be more surprising than expected.
Really interesting AU! While I'm not familiar with the source material, the characters are slotted into their roles and still sound like them and I love all the interactions, especially, of course, Steve and Peggy, whose relationship growth was fun to read about.

Where Our Restless Monsters Sleep by [archiveofourown.org profile] mizzy (MCU, Steve/Tony, Explicit, 233840w, warnings in tags)
Years after Tony Stark saved the universe, the Avengers realize there’s a major problem: his body has gone missing. And he isn’t the only one. Fallen heroes all over the galaxy have had their graves pillaged.

An old foe is stealing the bodies of fallen warriors, but for what nefarious reason? There’s only one solution. To find out why it’s happening, Steve’s gotta die.

He probably shouldn’t be so eager to do that.

Just started reading this and I'm already hooked. Really compelling storyline and the dynamics between Steve and other characters are great.

Just one this time because I haven't had much time for reading lately...

Barren by [archiveofourown.org profile] Skyelara (InuYasha, Miroku/Sango, 2633 words, explicit) - Sango could give Miroku everything he wanted, except the thing he wanted most.

I haven't had much time for reading lately buuuuuut... I've gone back to this one several times already. Delicious angst for these two characters, and I very much enjoyed the author's portrayal of the two of them as they deal with a challenging situation in a modern setting. It's not long, but it packs a punch!

Very belatedly, sorry (I've been managing the Yahoo Groups Fandom Identification Project and forgot Thursday came and went, lol), one Leverage rec:

The Weather Outside is Frightful by serenelystrange (2649 words)
A delightful snowed-in fic with the Leverage team in Portland.

Can you add Leverage to the fandom tags for this post? Just noticed it wasn't there.
