Community Recs Post!

[glitteryv]

Every 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 fics/fanvids/podfics/fanarts have we discovered this week? Drop it in the comments below. Anon comment is enabled.

MOAR Social Media-inspired!BTS fanart + a couple of fics. 😃

FANARTS

* Untitled Fanart by MinalsLate - Really dandy illustration based on the v. recent BTS x LV spread on the pages of Korea GQ and Korea Vogue. The vibrancy of the colors is deffo eye-catching.


* Untitled RM and Yoongi fanart by inudazo02 - Cool rendering of RM and Yoongi in their Louis Vuitton clothing.


* Untitled Seokjin fanart by kimute_jihiki - Sweet piece featuring Seokjin and Tom, the bunny, from the recent photoshoot.


* Untitled Yoongi fanart by ameamakunai - A slightly sassy pin-up version of Yoongi and his long skirt. I'm <3____<3 at all of it, really.


* Meow Meow by shogetsu9339 - The combination of a cartoon style with the nod to Yoongi's cat-like vibes works to the point of making me grin every time I look at it.


* Untitled Taehyung fanart by Morgane__arts - What an AMAZING pen drawing of Taehyung from his (now-deleted) shirtless Insta story with bonus!beard. I'm in LURVE.


* Untitled RM fanart by 282b6Exxx - An adorable rendering of RM's airport look when he returned to Seoul last week.


A few more of the long-haired Jimin fanarts I forgot to include last week. :D


* long haired dream by zam_chala - Fitting title is v. fitting, haha. I'm gonna throw in a content warning for extremely mild suggestive nudity here.


* Ramen…do you want to eat? by kkenvmin - This is so softe and loving. You know, just the way some of the Taehyung/Jimin content is. Content warning for another mild suggestion/implied nudity in the second piece.


* Untitled Jimin fanart by bug_OJO - I won't even try to front here: like, this piece is SUCH A TREAT that I don't even know WHERE to look: at Jimin's expression, them long gloves, the whole thing… _____@


* Untitled Jimin fanart (the sequel*) by cmeeart_twt - Tremendously gorgeous drawings are tremendously gorgeous. I really liked how the artist did two versions with different hair lengths. <3____<3

(*I added "the sequel" as a sorta cheeky thing since I needed to give it a title AND wanted to differentiate it from the other ones with "Untitled" as the first word.)


* ANOTHER untitled Jimin fanart by pencil2019 - Finally, there's THIS DRAWING HERE THAT JUST LEFT ME WOOZY THE FIRST TIME I SAW IT. #ThatsAllICanSayForNow


FIC RECS


* The Space Between by magem (Mature, RM/Yoongi/Hobi, 4.4k, Space Opera + Polyam Negotiations AU) - Sometime in the far future, RM travels through space. The ship begins to talk to him…

For such a short fic, this one is perfection from beginning to end; I love how it explores the loneliness RM feels, so far from home yet still looking for more places to land. Also how he connects both to Yoongi and Hoseok, individually and as triad.

On top of that, there's a lot of interesting tidbits abt personhood, as RM and Hobi unite and support Yoongi's own development from sentient spaceship and into something more. Really lovely story.


* how we assume a role by disillusioned (Explicit, multiple M/M pairings, 41.2k) - Here are 29 ficlets under collection, each one a standalone, featuring a ton of ships in sexy times.
One of the things I liked abt this whole thing was how the author touched upon different kinds of relationships: established, new or casual. All of them important (even if the people involved won't be together forever). Likewise, some of the stories are funny or sad, but always written with a type of honesty that kept me engaged.

Even better was that every ficlet had its own trigger/content warning + kink listed at the beginning of the stories. So, if there's something you want to avoid, you can. I certainly skipped a couple of stories which featured things I find hella squicky.

All in all, there's tons of good stuff here.

Between Sand and Stars by Dashicra1
Word Count: 12,720
Fandom: Good Omens
Rating: M
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Aziraphale/Crowley
Summary: Aziraphale has been wounded while defending innocent civilians and summarily sentenced to death via wandering in the desert for his actions, but when he stumbles upon Crowley’s house by chance, his luck changes rapidly.
Crowley is a strange and skittish man who lives alone, tucked in amongst a collection of medicinal herbs, broken pottery, and torn blankets.
When the reason for Crowley’s caution and odd behaviour is revealed, Aziraphale can think of nothing he’d rather do than try to help him free himself from his tragedy, and the two embark upon a tender romance which will change both of their lives for the better.
Reccer's Notes: This is such a tender fic. It is a fantasy/fairy tale AU, about poor touch starved Crowley who lives alone in the desert, and Aziraphale who accidentally finds his hut. I don't want to give away the twist, I will say the story is not overly focused on the plot, but there still is some plot, it is more about two broken people finding comfort and love with each other. which happens to be one of my favourite story types.
