recthethingEvery Thursday, we have a community 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, 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 fanvid/fic/podfic/fanarts have we discovered this week? Drop it in the comments below. Anon comment is enabled.

FTR, I'm rarely someone who can go thru a fic that's over 20k in one sitting, but that's EXACTLY what happened (much to next day!me's chagrin cuz I stayed up til around 4 a.m.) when I started this fic.
The author did a FANTASTIC job with RM's characterization: his overthinking, anxieties and how (in this story at least) he sabotages himself until it's nearly too late. His wonder at seeing others wanting him and reciprocating with a delicious mix of lust and love.
ON TOP OF THAT, there's the rollercoaster ride that is a v. unconventional A/B/O dynamic, how it pushes RM to (eventually) accept who he is and what his bond with the rest of BTS is vs. how he thinks things should be and assuming other ppl's feelings. Because of the length, there's enough space for RM to stumble as he grows into acknowledging and accepting his own feelings and desires.
Plus the intimate scenes are chef's kiss levels of good. Yes, even the RM/OFC one.
THAT SAID, I do have to reiterate the author's warning abt dub con: it might make some readers uncomfortable (I was R-E-A-D-Y to bounce if it got too close to noncon), but everything does get addressed and resolved.
* we started at midnight (go til the sunrise) by
This is the perfect PWP: naughty times abound mixed in with lulz and some feels. I also liked the blurriness in how RM thinks of his dynamic (or relationship) with Yoongi.

Good Omens fic:
Against the Bitter Cold by EdosianOrchids901
Word Count: 1318
Fandom: Good Omens
Rating: T
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Aziraphale/Crowley
Summary: A pointless temptation assignment leaves Crowley stranded in the middle of a snowstorm. By the time he stumbles back to the inn, he’s so cold and disoriented that he can’t even remember why he was outside. Aziraphale is ready to lend a helping hand.
Reccer's Note: Crowley gets hypothermia and Aziraphale has to try warm up a very disorientated Crowley. I loved blessedly confused Crowley is in this fic, his thought process is so jumbled, but he still worries about Aziraphale being too kind to him and drawing too attention. Azirphale is so sweet here. Plus, I'm a sucker form Crowley being comforted.
Truth or Dare by MirjamOmens
Word Count: 6523
Fandom: Good Omens
Rating: E
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Aziraphale/Crowley
Summary: “Let’s ask questions, like Truth or Dare!”
Crowley burst out laughing. “You do realize what you are getting into?” he said, “I could dare you to all manners of sins, it's called tempting, I’m a professional!”
“I’m not going to pick a dare, silly!” Aziraphale chuckled. “And you aren’t either, just the questions!”
“It’s not the Truth or Dare then!” Crowley objected, still laughing.
Aziraphale waved his hand to indicate something about not caring the least.
“Do you not want to play then?”
Reccer's Note: Post the apocalypse that wasn't, Crowley and Aziraphale play a modified version of True and Dare, which reveals a few things. This is another first time fic, which I can't get enough of, that is really sweet with a little bit of steamy sex mixed in.

Date: 2021-09-23 03:59 pm (UTC)sunlight on broken water by DizziDreams (1.8k)
Summary Snippet: Wen Qing watches as Wei Ying wades out into the pool to join Wen Ning and A-Yuan. He’s thin, of course. They’re all thin, but it looks different on him. (adorably sweet Burial Mounds era set fic)
history by tongzhi (16k)
Summary: Sizhui cannot plaster a smile on his face and act like he doesn’t want to crawl out of his skin at the mere thought of being affiliated with Cloud Recesses — of being a Lan, in all honesty — like he doesn’t want to burn the whole place down. Logically, it’s probably not true, it’s not a reflection of himself, but something about staying here, in this comfort, and maintaining a sense of normalcy feels like consenting to the genocide of his people.
What do you do when your home no longer feels like home? (an interesting LSZ coming to terms with the knowledge that he was born Wen Yuan and what the cultivation world did to the Wens fic)
The Intervening Years by roserocksrapidly (11k)
Summary: Wen Yuan grows up into Lan Sizhui and Xian-gege is there for every step of the way. (sweet yet slightly heartbreaking but in the best ways)

Adorable! What I would've given to see him wear it on the show.

Tonks eating while Ron deals with the possibility of death is pretty amusing.

Beautiful art of Ron.

Always love Peggy in her Captain Carter uniform.
Team Cap by
This is just too funny. They're at some sort of haunted house type place and it made me giggle a lot.

Aww, Bucky needs reassurance Sam is okay and it just melted my heart.

This is a great comic! I do love Spock leaving Kirk speechless.

Instead of stumbling across Tristan at Madeline’s party, Rory finds a friend. (“The Breakup, Part II” AU.)
I really liked this take on the episode and she's a fantastic writer.
now who's the wretched figure by Anonymous (Harry Potter, Remus/Sirius, PG-13, 3697w)
Written for me for the pine4pine exchange and it is perfect. Remus wants to get some fresh air during a party and of course Sirius is right behind him. Oh man, the pining here and the UST and the buildup was all perfect. Definitely had a few of those "JUST KISS" moments that makes a story great.
we could call it even (you could call me babe for the weekend) by
She's one of my favorite Winterfalcon writers and I'm always a sucker for the casual sex turns into real feelings trope.
Rare Birds by Anonymous (MCU/TFATWS, Sam/Bucky, PG-13, 5059w)
Written for the pine4pine exchange where reveals have not happened yet. And oh the pining is fun here. It's a 5 times fic and I loved every moment of it.
The Biggest Win by
I got this as a gift and it legit just made me so happy. Great take on Clark and Lois's relationship as he adjusts to his new role being Superman.
