glitteryv posting in

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

FANART

* His look is expensive but he's priceless by

pichirobi - Jimin series inspired by one of his LOOKS from the 2020 Season's Greetings package.

* Untitled Jimin & Megan Thee Stallion fanart by

livmaze - A sweet fanart featuring two wonderful ppl.

* RM shared a moment with you by

artisqueer - A mildly NSFW (based on the posing) amazing pencil drawing of RM at the gym.

* u good? by

BCrushed - (Content warning: blood from a nose injury) Between Jimin's casual pose and Jungkook's stunned expression, one can see several ideas/premises. I really do like that, despite doing something simple like sucking on a lollipop, Jimin gives out a menacing vibe. Meanwhile, Jungkook looks like he's still processing what just happened. :D

FICS

* Smooth These Rough Edges by

allways_always (Explicit, RM/Yoongi, 6.7k) - Failboats in Love + Friends to Lovers AU in which RM figures out a method to help Yoongi stop biting his nails. (Not a spoiler: said method includes kissing and some sexual stuff...heh, heh.)

* pink in the night by

mbwff (Explicit, RM/Jungkook, 8.6k) - First time + kink discovery + a sprinkle of magical realism AU in which RM's sleepwalking returns with some interesting consequences. I also love the aspect of JK being psychic and how it ties into the overall plot.

TW/CW for: v. mild dubcon, somnophilia, mild anxiety.

* your smile so cruel by

sereko (Explicit, RM/Taehyung/Yoongi, v. heavily implied OT7, 4.2k) - There's a certain mood happening between RM and Taehyung that's building up to something that makes RM desire something he's never done. Yoongi's there to monitor things and lend a helping hand (heheh) whenever needed.

For such a short PWP, there's a lot of feeling in the goings on.

Tales of Burning Love
Word Count: 5830
Fandom: The Old Guard
Rating: M
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Joe/Nicky
Summary: “Yusuf’s head is like the library of Babel,” Nicky said. “He stores away words so he can feed on their marrow when he’s starved for everything else.”
Reccer's Note: This more than a Joe/Nicky story, it is like a love letter to literature. Joe, Nicky and Booker witness a book burning, and the way the author wrote it made me tear up. A great read.

Oh I just love that Classic Loki and Thor one!! Also, Mobius + Pokemon = cute

From:

kingstoken

The Classic Loki one gave me the feels, it's so bittersweet.

If they can have talking raccoons and sentient tree creatures in the MCU why not pokemon? Also, if that one one guy gets to have a cat, then Mobius should get to keep his weird pet (one other than Loki, ha!)

Fanart:

Steve/Tony by

grumpycakes (MCU, Steve/Tony)
Adorable art of Steve comforting Tony.

Sam/Bucky by

kurose_riku (MCU, Sam/Bucky)
Three awesome artworks of Sam and Bucky. I love all of them.

Two reporters in love by

meldy_arts (Smallville, Clark/Lois)
Aww, this was very cute. I especially love the details on the hair.

Fanfic:

Wit Is The Epitaph Of An Emotion by

17pansies (MCU/TFATWS, Sam/Bucky, Explicit, 2010w)
Really great fic of Sam taking care of Bucky after a mission and things escalating. The banter is really incredible and the whole fic is just so them that I could not get enough.

Not Just Anyone by

brokenhighways (Smallville, Clark/Lois, Unrated, 2558w)
Perfectly written story that captures the tension between them in the second half of s8. It nails Clark's mixed feelings and reluctance to take the next step and Lois's stubbornness and her willingness to call people out/stand up for herself.

The Sam/Bucky one with all the birds is pretty lulzy. Thank you for reccing all of these fanworks. :)

Busy week so only a few from me today. Shockingly, they are MDZS/Untamed fics again:

this is me trying by queen_gee (4.5k)
Summary snippet: “I’m sure you get people like me all the time,” Wei Ying joked. “Sad saps with nowhere better to go, washing up on the doorstep. You must’ve heard so many stories.”

“Some,” Wen Ning admitted, “but I wouldn’t mind hearing another one.” (melancholic yet sweet perfectly IC modern AU)

A capriccio (series) by Pip (Moirail) (first fic 2k, 2nd 21k)
Summary for first fic: Lan Zhan's neighbor plays flute at three in the morning, because he is the worst man to ever have existed, and furthermore, the universe hates Lan Zhan specifically. (utterly sweet modern musicians/music AU)

The Third Son of Qinghe Nie by hansbekhart (1.8k)
Summary Snippet: “Who are you?” Wei Wuxian asks finally.

Sizhui takes a deep breath. This is it. He isn’t ready. But he is. Er-ge said so. He lets his eyes fill with tears and spill down his cheeks. Wei Wuxian leans away, probably unconsciously. Good, Sizhui thinks, a little viciously. He never promised Er-ge to tell Wei Wuxian the truth, but he has never had a better weapon at hand than exactly this.

“My name is Nie Sizhui,” Sizhui says. “I’m the master of the Unclean Realm, now.” (short, but well done and fascinating for the possibilities, canon divergent fic)
