Community Recs Post!

[glitteryv]

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 fic/podfic/fanart/fanvid have we discovered this week? Leave a comment below. Anon comment is enabled.

FANART

* Taehyung portrait by Morgane__arts - It's not only gorgeous, but also drawn using coffee!


* Get it, Let it ROLL by amaiaaki - Jungkook in lingerie. That's it. >:)


* On your knees for the queen by kinkamink - a mildly NSFW (bare breasts covered by pasties) and totally hot portrait of R63 Yoongi in the "Daechwita" video. #ImInLurve


* It's raining when I dance alone by 0901BTSmg - V. dreamy profile art of Jungkook. I really dig the balance between the v.bright (almost neon) holographic colors against all the black.


* Pink hair by naoki_artworks - A kinda cheeky take inspired by Yoongi's recent pink hair. So now, in addition to the many subunits for the group, we've now got the 2021 Pink Hair Line too. :P


FICS

* girls with fun by Anonymous (Rated Teen, Jungkook/Jimin, Seokjin/Taehyung, Hoseok & Yoongi, 33k spread across 4 fics) R63!BTS featuring several ships.

One of the highlights of this series was the introspective vibe throughout. Life as a girl group is different and filled with a whole lotta more minefields.

TW for: talk of dieting, disordered eating, and overexercising; internalized homophobia.


* maybe i hate you can be our always by ameliabedelias (Mature, Yoongi/Jimin, 35k) - College AU + (mild) Meet Ugly AU in which Yoongi is hella annoyed by Jimin from the second they cross paths...and he's also INTRIGUED.

Part of the reason why I love Yoonmin as a ship is that they sure love to bicker at each other, but there's also (ALWAYS) a lot of love and tenderness amid the prickliness. There's a general fanon that works really well alongside the Rivals to Lovers trope. Mainly, cuz just like it happens in this story, once they give into their feelings, everything that follows is hella sweet.

TW/CW: alcohol and drug use (marihuana) from college-aged people.

Two Boku no Hero Academia art recs from twitter:

.Hawks/Tokoyami resting by datsu_34n; it's a sweet moment, and I love the colors especially. <3
.Aizawa/Shinsou sharing scarves by crcr_hrak; this is just super cute and sweet! <3

[glitteryv]

That second one is hella cozy! Awwww. Thanks for the rec.

[donutsweeper]

Two more from the 10yearpromise exchange (authors now revealed):

Grave Robber's Chronicles/Lost Tomb/Ultimate Note:
Carbon and Other Forms Of Dating by fox_of_nine_tales (30k)
Summary: Roped into a temp job as night watchman at his uncle’s museum, Wu Xie is looking forward to the most boring summer of his life. Until his other uncle sends him a mysterious artifact... (absolutely amazing Night at the Museum AU)

Grave Robber's Chronicles/Lost Tomb Reboot:
When Is a Curse Not a Curse? When It Becomes a Gift. by eirenical (16k)
Summary Snippet: Wu Xie has often wondered what goes on in the mind of their Menyouping. Thanks to an accident in a tomb, he's about to find out... and get a lot more than he bargained for. (Incredible hearing-thoughts-curse plus get-together fic)

And a collection of tumblr recs:

Untitled MDZS Tumblr Ficlet (1k ish)
Written for the prompt: AU where WWX doesn’t get resurrected but NHS still managed an alternative revenge plan. When JGY’s machinations were revealed LWJ was *ready* to cut JGY down, only to face LXC pleading mercy for his sworn brother. LWJ’s response? “Where was brother’s mercy for Wei Ying?” (So extremely painful yet IC and real)

art:
Fullmetal Alchemist - somebody said 'ed feat. tony-hawk-syndrome' and I very much agree (absolutely hilarious set of doodles with Ed getting recognized, in one way or another at least)
Jaws (1975) art - Drinking Buddies "No more darker and edgier reboots instead here is the happier and kinder version of Jaws. In which Jaws just wants to party on the beach but people keep getting scared because they are a shark"
Marvel League trading cards - Team Cap and Team Iron Man (so many avengers and so beautiful)
MDZS/The Untamed - eternal suffering for xiao pingguo (mostly reccing this because I've never seen a donkey looking so adorably disgruntled before)
Star Wars (original trilogy) - Leia, Han and Luke (beautiful)
Word of Honor - Wen Kenxing falling (utterly ethereal)

[glitteryv]

Look at all hem goodies! Also that WoH fanart was lovely. Thank you for reccing all of these. :)

A Few More Loki Art Recs + A Couple of Fic Recs for The Old Guard and Supernatural

[kingstoken]

*Peaceful moment (Kid Loki and Gator Loki) by Bunnyteaa
*More Loki Variants (Sylvie variants) by TheWerewolf31MX
*Vikings Thor & Loki by k_cat10969

I fancy you but I've been destitute by mtmb
Word Count: 7888
Fandom: The Old Guard
Rating: E
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Booker/Nile
Summary: One hundred years. It was unfathomable. She’d tried to argue, tried to make her point, and she’d thought in the moment that maybe she’d at least gotten them to consider a shorter sentence, maybe just a separation for everything to cool off, and then they could work through shit. But a hundred years of exile?
In which Nile takes matters into her own hands.
Reccer's Note: Where Nile thinks it's bullshit exiling a depressed person from their family for 100 years, and decides to visit Booker without telling the rest of the team. I really liked Nile's POV in this fic, and enjoyed how she starts out wanting to help Booker help himself and be his friend, before it develops into something more.

adam milligan's list of biblical encounters with angels ranked by homoerotic subtext by jesimiel
Word Count: 8028
Fandom: Supernatural
Rating: T
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Adam/Michael
Summary: a boy and his angel, spanning a thousand years and change.
Reccer's Note: This fic is entirely dialogue taking place between Adam and Michael basically inside Adam's head. It spans the events of the series, and works surprisingly well even though we get no setting descriptions or wider view of the story, but I found I was still able to imagine what was going on.

Fanart:

Charles & Erik by diviedrawn (X-Men/X-Men Alternate Timeline Movies, Charles Xavier & Erik Lehnsherr)
This meme with those two is perfect. Made me giggle.

Bucky by maxkennedy24 (MCU, Bucky Barnes)
Gorgeous art of Bucky (and a cat!)

Captain Carter by debbiedart (MCU/What If ...?, Peggy Carter)
Beautiful art depicting Peggy as Captain Carter.

Falcon by axelmedellin (MCU, Sam Wilson)
Great art of Sam in his Falcon costume.

Sam Wilson by lgions (MCU, Sam Wilson)
Absolutely lovely! And they even have a falcon on his shoulder to make it better.

What if the escalator scene still happened by critter_of_habit (MCU/What If ...?, Peggy Carter/Natasha Romanov)
A comic of Peggy and Natasha in that TWS scene and it is amazing. Buff Peggy + Nat? I'm here for it.

Lex by natali_hall (Smallville, Lex Luthor)
Really amazing drawing of Lex. Really could pass as a photograph.

[yourlibrarian]

Ooh love those Peggy ones!

[svgurl]

They were totally great and the first one was so captivating. I would watch the second as a movie or even just a fic lol :D

[glitteryv]

Oh, the first of the Sam fanarts is really amazing! Thank you for reccing all these fanarts. )

[svgurl]

It is! I really was in awe of it. No problem! Thanks for continuing to make all these posts! :D

[glitteryv]

Ah, my pleasure! :DDD

Fanart:

Lois & Clark by anonymous (Smallville, Clark/Lois)
One more I forgot! Clark and Lois getting married. I love all the details and their expressions.

Fic:

everything is blue and grey by anonymous (Elementary, Joan/Jamie, PG-13, 2426w)
In which Joan and Jamie have to pretend to be married and the feelings are real. This was for the JustMarried Exchange and reveals haven't been made yet and it was really delightful.

root out the wine-dark honeyed center by anonymous (Elementary, Joan/Jamie, PG-13, 7880w)
This was written for me and I adored it a lot. Jamie gets injured and thinks that Joan is her wife. I love the interactions between all of the characters and how it all builds up in a realistic manner.

light the spark by anonymous (Harry Potter, James/Lily, PG-13, 1876w)
A story about moments from the first year of James and Lily's marriage. I love how they depicted their relationship. Made me smile.

[glitteryv]

Oh, and reccing fics too! :D

[svgurl]

Always lol There are so many exchange collections opening and there just isn't enough time to go through all of them. :D

[glitteryv]

Seconding the wow at the tattoo! Thank you for reccing that post and the rest too. :)

[yourlibrarian]

Just wanted to say a general "thanks for running things" as I look forward to these weekly posts and am so glad people keep contributing.

[glitteryv]

Right back at you (and everyone else who recs too!)

It's such a treat to see the VARIETY of fandoms and fanworks that we get recced every week. :DDDD

[sodium_amytal]

A WIP that I really like so far:

To Be The Ones Who Survived by HarpforHim
Summary snippet: When Loki survives the first attack from Thanos, he expects to die in the Snap. When this doesn’t happen either, he’s left to deal with the rebuilding of Asgard alone as his older brother sinks further into depression resulting from his failure to stop Thanos.

In a world where Thor is no longer his champion, the hero always trying to bring out the best in him, Loki is left to fight for the both of them.

[glitteryv]

Interesting premise is interesting. Thankies for reccing it.

[tamsin]
