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 fics/fanvids/fancrafts/fanarts/podfics/some other kind of fanwork have we discovered this week? Drop it in the comments below. Anon comment is enabled.

Context for the next two recs: earlier this month, Seokjin posted a new version of him talking on the phone--in which the "phone" is some kind of giant prawn. (He did this back in 2019, iirc.) Anyhoo, like all things BTS-related, the fanartists have been having fun…

I loved the gentleness throughout the story. Also the way that the author showed what for many is a sensitive topic (BTS going on indefinite hiatus/disbanding) as something that leaves the members feeling unmoored. And yet, BTS will always be 7, so they're all still connected.
The romance (which, again, it's pre-slash) is of the every-day-what-are-we-having-for-dinner-tonight type of way. Neither Yoongi nor Taehyung are in a hurry to acknowledge the new kind of bond developing between them. And it works because the story is more about how things grow instead of making the characters jump in the sack and boink at all hours. Don't get me wrong, tho, I love those other kinds of stories too!
But, again, the slowed down pace fits this specific fic in a way that I found really satisfying. Go figure!
* Never Going to Happen (or The Inevitable Heat Death of the Universe) by
FTR, stories in which a character rebuffs another (only to, inevitably, be won over by the end) aren't my cuppa most of the time. Mainly because usually it means that a character will be somewhat manipulative in a way?
BUT, this fic steps away from that kind of narrative by having both characters acknowledge why their assumptions abt each other are wrong. It's good to see characters being challenged in such a way. Even better is how the end results are positive both for the characters individually as well as for their relationship.
I'm making it sound wayyy more serious than it actually is. The story takes its time to get the characters together; it's almost impossible to not be charmed by this fic.

Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Aziraphale/Crowley
Summary: Aziraphale is attacked by a group of humans who want to control his powers. He’s incapacitated by magic and unable to defend himself, totally helpless. But something dark and powerful bursts out of the shadows to rescue him.
Reccer's Note: This is some good hurt/comfort, Aziraphale is very badly hurt by some nasty humans, and Crowley comes to his rescue.

Date: 2022-02-10 04:47 pm (UTC)A Guardian one - Shen Wei + Zhao Yunlan - I Choose (FMV) Summary: I turned my little WeiLan vidlet into a full fledged video. Mostly Shen Wei wearing his heart on his sleeve. Also mostly fluff, no death and no I don't acknowledge or accept the show ending. Book ending is the only right one. (excellent Guardian vid, ao3 link)
A one quite old MDZS fan song with translations - Inquiry (问灵) (gorgeous and sad, youtube link)
A super short 20 second Untamed one - thinking of wen yuan and despairing for 10 minutes (oh my heart, tumblr link)
And a Nirvana in Fire one - The Mountain [Fanvid] by Rhea Summary: Tunnel vision for a cause, a Mei Changsu focused fanvid. (absolutely excellent, AO3 link)
