Community Recs Post!

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/fanvids have we discovered this week? Leave a comment below. Anon comment is enabled.

More lesser known MDZS/Untamed fics from me with today's accidental theme being modern cultivation/urban fantasy settings:

underneath a starless sky, the wind blows towards the future by ilip13 (21k)
Summary: The rumor says that the Yiling Laozu will accept any deal, for a price, and since there is always some place in the city that is broken, infected, crawling with malice, there are always those who are willing to pay, and the Yiling Laozu will then get the job done.

He helps keep the balance, where the path of traditional cultivation fails.

The city can use — sometimes the city requires — someone who is just like him. (Super fascinating urban fantasy + modern cultivation fic)

Blue and White by sagely_sea (27k)
Summary Snippet: There is a serial killer on the loose and the Cultivation Authority is out of clues and time. They send Lan Wangji to contact their special consultant, Wei Wuxian, to help them with his unorthodox ways. But solving a murder isn't the only thing Lan Wangji would like to do with the shunned consultant. (Modern cultivation AU with canon plot points. Really interesting worldbuilding)

All Old Things are New Again by The Feels Whale (miscellea) (51k)
Summary: Full-time necromancer and part-time cam boy, Wei Wuxian, finds himself unexpectedly homeless. An enthusiastic patron comes to his rescue.

Conversely: Immortal Cultivator Lan Wangji has been waiting a long time for his deceased husband to be reincarnated again. In retrospect, he should have anticipated that this is how it would go. (NSFW reincarnation, modern-cultivation yet canon compliant fic with absolutely amazing worldbuilding.)

Lan Jingyi and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Road Trip by scribblemetimbers (26k)
Summary: Lan Jingyi doesn't know how the hell their perfectly ordinary plans to go to a perfectly ordinary concert turned into a life-threatening road trip filled with monsters, magical rocks, and a megalomaniac who keeps yelling about finding an evil overlord named something as corny as The Yiling Patriarch, but what he does know is that his parents must never ever find out.

Really, the only saving grace here is that they made new friends. Strange, probably-extremely-powerful, and definitely-not-human friends, but A-Yuan and his dad saved them and now they'll help them save Hanguang-Jun! As far as Lan Jingyi is concerned, that means he's ride-or-die for them forever. (Fun and fascinating creature/monster/urban fantasy Modernish AU)

Fanart:

Avengers in the wild by [tumblr.com profile] artbyindiana (MCU, Bucky Barnes, Thor Odinson, Steve Rogers, Natasha Romanov, Sam Wilson)
This is so much fun. I love the book choices.

Captain Carter & Black Widow by [tumblr.com profile] critter_of_habit (MCU/What If ...?, Peggy Carter, Natasha Romanov)
I love this and I'm really feeling Peggy's hairstyle here.

Baskin Robbins MCU by [tumblr.com profile] maddie_w_draws (MCU, Scott Lang, Bucky Barnes, Sam Wilson, Peter Parker)
Everything about this is legit perfect, especially Bucky having a baby carrier for his cat.

A Sam study by [tumblr.com profile] muffinshark (MCU, Sam Wilson)
Gorgeous Sam art.

Sam/Bucky by [tumblr.com profile] eosvns (MCU/TFATWS, Sam/Bucky)
Adorable! And the text made me giggle.

Undercover/Fake Dating by [tumblr.com profile] hubbynatural (MCU, Sam/Bucky)
I love this Winterfalcon version of the Steve & Natasha scene in TWS.

They're so cute here and the chibi version of them is adorable.

The Moment by [tumblr.com profile] otterandterrier (Star Wars, Han/Leia)
Oh, this is just so soft and beautiful.

Good stuff, particularly the SW one, the Avengers reading and the ones of Loki with Frigga 🙂

A story from the knights POV in Merlin, having an effect that we don't know about in canon: The One Featuring Gwaine by Lolly047 https://archiveofourown.org/works/33774109

And another Merlin fic which follows up on how Merlin doesn't actually know how to be the jack-of-all-trades that Arthur expects him to be: The Chevalier by WingedWolf121 https://archiveofourown.org/works/33780124

two Star Wars recs, one MCU (Loki TV) rec, and one The Magnus Archives rec:

Forgetting by Killbothtwins (5k)
Summary: Look, if you woke up in a spaceship with no memories, wouldn't you make some guesses about who you were? If some of those assumptions happen to be wrong, well...

Obi-Wan, Anakin, Ahsoka, Rex, and Cody have amnesia.

Alternating Current by Jessepinwheel (28k)
Summary: Old Ben Kenobi dies and the Force throws him back in time to his younger body, just after the events at Naboo.

Problem is, Obi-Wan is already there.

Better in the Morning by bedlamsbard (38k, WIP)
Summary: Loki’s first warning that something interesting was going to happen was when Mobius said, “Oh, shit,” and tried to steer Loki down the nearest corridor.

Loki wasn't the only Asgardian variant the TVA brought in with the intention of hunting down their rogue, but the problem with Asgardians is that they're Asgardians.

Life Preserver by PitViperOfDoom (58k)
Summary: Admittedly, Jon has been known to make impulsive decisions. Taking a part-time job at the campus library on his last year of university. Going in after dark to check on a book. Putting the lighter in his pocket. Asking out the cute goth who, as far as he knows, narrowly avoided a brush with a Leitner.

Gerry told himself it was only going to be one date, just to see what it was like. How was he supposed to know he'd get attached?

Two fic crossovers:

Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries/Doctor Who:

World Enough and Time by [archiveofourown.org profile] laiqualaurelote on AO3. 51542 words, complete. Rated T and contains eventual Jack/Phryne, though, like the show, takes it's lovely time :)

“There are more things between heaven and earth than are dreamt of in your philosophy, Inspector,” says Miss Fisher. “But really it would be a lot easier to explain if you would just get in the car.”

It’s the Shakespeare, really, that does it. Jack gets in the car.

“This is not a car,” he says.

“Of course it is. It’s the best car in the universe.”

“It’s bigger on the inside,” says Jack.

Miss Fisher sticks her head back around the corner. “I would make a joke about that, but I’ve been repeatedly told to stop.”


1929 is going terribly for Jack Robinson, who is about to be suspended for trying to do his job. Then a glamorous time-travelling alien crashes his ex-wife's wedding, absconds with his feelings, and whisks him out of 1929 altogether. After all, there's a whole world out there. A Doctor Who AU



And The Mummy/James Bond:

Vacant Horizons by [archiveofourown.org profile] skieswideopen. 8763 words, complete, rated T. Gen, where Bond gets thrown back in time and must team up with Ardeth Bay to make sure the O'Connells stay safe and to overthrow a local terrorist group.

Bond could never decide later if he would have followed the Sons of Imhotep if he'd known where—and when—it would lead.

Work, uh, got crazy this past week and I completely forgot about DW or this post. So here's a belated Leverage rec:

Let's Go Steal A Cat (Allergy) by seraphina_snape (4713 words)
A funny gen team fic with plenty of banter and shenanigans.
