highadrenalineexchange recently went live. Heart Attack is a multifandom exchange where you have to write a 10k+ word fic in two weeks. There are a lot of good fic, here are my recs.

Nine fics in eight fandoms: Star Wars, DCEU, Sherlock Holmes, Bridgerton, Rivers of London, Kingsman, Poirot, A League of Their Own

I just finished reading this fic and it's so good, it deserves more love! Creator chose not to warn, and I think that's because of the unhealthy relationship between Dean and John, but no archive warnings apply. It does have a bittersweet/somewhat sad ending because it matches up with the canon story of Dean/Cassie but gives so much wonderful backstory. Dean is trans in this, but I love how much of canon still fits so well. Plus I think the author nails the weird way Dean & John interact, given Sam's absence.

eldest daughter, first-born son (13836 words) by adastreia
Fandom: Supernatural (TV 2005)
Rating: Explicit
Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings
Relationships: Cassie Robinson/Dean Winchester, Dean Winchester & John Winchester
Additional Tags: Pre-Canon, Getting Together, Developing Relationship, Trans Dean Winchester, Cunnilingus, Vaginal Fingering, Bittersweet Ending, Sam Winchester Present As Absence, Canon-Typical Casual Alcoholism, Additional Warnings In Author's Note, Casefic as in a Case is Also Happening During the Events of the Fic, Angst and Fluff and Smut
Summary:

Dean meets Cassie when Sam has been gone for 1 year and 8 months. He’s been doing that lately, measuring time in Sam’s absence. Like life ended and started between his little brother shoving his few possessions in a duffel bag and taking off to the local bus station.

Untitled Armand/Daniel by

4clownshiponly | Direct Image Link
Fandom: Interview with the Vampire (2022)
Ship: Armand/Daniel Molloy
Medium: Art
Length: 1 piece
Rating: General/SFW
My Tags: romance, ambiguous ending, getting together, first kiss (ship), kissing
Artist's Caption: I’m manifesting them kissing each other on my screen soon🙏

Description:

A digital painting of Armand and Daniel kissing. Armand is leaning down slightly over Daniel, cupping his cheek as Daniel closes his eyes. The space around them is dark, the lighting indirect except for where their mouths meet.

I am a sucker for pairings that involve a mortal character in middle age or beyond with a much-older immortal who looks half their age, so the television adaptation of Interview with the Vampire is serving me very well with its take on Armand and Daniel. I love both the contrast between Armand and Daniel and between light and darkness in this piece, and I am also all about those curls.

Maren/Lee, 4k. Two young cannibals, in love and eating people and trying to figure out what it means that Lee is also into men. I shipped these two real hard in the movie, and this fic feels so true to them, bloody and messy and yet so honest. The movie is so horny in this somehow understated way, and this fic about this really captures that spirit, I feel. And then the whole thread of Lee being shy about being attracted to men, ashamed not about killing and eating them but liking when they smell nice - my heart!!

RedheadAmongWolves
Liam/Noel, 4k. They’re the last two people on the fucking planet who should be drift compatible. AKA Pacific Rim AU, grounded in Liam and Noel's RL rocky childhood and messy history. Of course Liam follows Noel to the Jaeger program, just like he followed Noel into music! Of course they're so drift compatible that they immediately get stuck with a Jaeger! This is everything I never thought to want. :')

Harry Potter
All I Have to Do by

fluxweed
Harry/Draco, 10k. The Patented Daydream Charm (Adult Edition) allows you to enter a top-quality, highly realistic thirty-minute sexual fantasy. Solitude and privacy spells advised. A brand new take on pining while fucking. I really enjoyed the feelings and the reveal. <3

Only Murders in the Building
Gestures of Affection by

bookhousegirl
Charles/Oliver, 8k. Charles, fearing that Oliver's sex life is more adventurous and doesn't include him, tries a dating app. Obviously it all goes really badly until it doesn't. I didn't really get into the show but I loved the character dynamics, and Charles's loneliness and hatred of dating apps are very relatable. A really sweet fic.

Swaggering Dudebro Who's Secretly A Virgin/His Secretly Slutty Nerd Bestie, M/M, 10k. The voice in this is delightful. If you need some comedic clueless bisexual pining, you absolutely should read this.

Untitled Frenchie/Izzy by

smudgeandfrank
Fandom: Our Flag Means Death
Ship: Frenchie/Izzy Hands
Medium: Comic
Length: 1 page
Rating: Teen/SFW
My Tags: humour, happy ending, established relationship, izzy lives, pdas, trust

Description:

A four-panel full-colour comic based on a scene from the television series Brooklyn Nine-Nine. In the first two panels, Frenchie announces to a skeptical Lucius that Izzy would catch him if he ran at him and leaped into his arms. He then proceeds to demonstrate, despite the fact that Izzy is holding a cup of coffee.

This is a sweet, sunny comic that is completely made by Frenchie's enthusiasm, Izzy's expressions, and Lucius's closing line.

VID: my type by

augustusgloopswag. Gen, lots of characters. Song by Saint Motel is a swinging upbeat number with lots of brass, aka the PERFECT song choice for this franchise. I think I've watched this five times already. CW for some brief/implied gore, but this goes fairly light relative to the movies. Just a really fun time.

Strip the Paint by

fiddlestick
Lawrence/Adam, 36k. After they both survive Saw I, they have a lot of recovering to do. There are a number of fics in the tag on this theme, but this is the first one I read and probably my favorite. I enjoyed the slow progression, the character voices, and all the little details, and I especially enjoyed one of the late reveals. Just really satisfying mutual h/c and recovery.

rematch by

unstuckintime
Lawrence/Adam, 22k. Adam is in a time loop. His ankle is chafed, he’s craving a cheeseburger, and he may or may not be falling for Dr. Lawrence Gordon. It’s the worst day of his life—and there’s no end in sight. What a terrible period of one's life to live over and over again! What a great fic premise! :D This hits all your basic time loop beats, but with an extra kick because of how things end every time. I enjoyed the angst and relationship development a lot.

Ley lines by

turnabout
Lawrence/Adam, 37k. Seven years after surviving Saw I and several thousand miles away, Adam is really unhappy to run into Lawrence again. I apparently am a huge sucker for reunion fic, and this one is really fun as they work through their respective damage. Plus, the sun-soaked Arizona setting is a nice contrast with canon.

Year of the Pig by

fiddlestick
Lawrence/Adam, 4k. Kramer, a man in Adam’s friend’s apartment building, died expectedly and without mystery. He left little behind save for a typewritten film criticism of The Gordon Record. HOUSE OF LEAVES AU. This is short but sweet, by which I mean angsty and creepy in the best way. Adam plays the role of Johnny Truant, which IMO is a huge improvement, with all Adam's trauma and backstory. This is definitely a very remixed version of the novel. I love the gradual reveal of how much of Saw canon applies here, and the ending is perfect, very much in the spirit of the book.

What to Expect When You're Not Expecting by

house-afire
Fandom: Our Flag Means Death
Ship: Fang/Izzy Hands
Medium: Fic
Length: 752 words
Rating: Mature
My Tags: character study, romance, happy ending, established relationship, izzy lives, fantasies, identity, domesticity, pillow talk, breeding/pregnancy kink
Summary: Written for the prompt "100 words of getting him pregnant", Fang has a hypothetical fantasy and Izzy indulges it.

Excerpt:

“Well, I can’t,” Izzy said. It came out blustery somehow, indignant and spitty and riled-up, like he was months back, talking to a peacocking Spriggs. “Have Roach explain it to you, if you’ve gone this long without—”

“I know how it works, boss.” Fang patted his stomach. His hand fell to the side of Izzy’s at first and then, almost shyly, straight on it. “Got nowhere to put it. But if you could.”

If he could. If he could, he’d still be a one-legged pirate past his prime, sailing on a ship where the crew was already vulnerable and downy enough without adding an infant in the mix. He had enough to take care of already. He had a child, he’d wind up throwing himself in the fucking sea.

This one got me straight in the feelings. It isn't just about Fang and Izzy doing a little kink discovery together, but about Izzy having a significant moment of pushing past his reflexive practical resistance and worries to try being fanciful with someone. I love how the author works Izzy's experience during Calypso's Birthday into it and sweetly and naturally extends what it means for a space to be safe.

[vid] satisfaction by Tafadhali. Wonderfully edited recap of The Quick and the Dead, which did not get enough love when it was released.

Northwest Passage by ExtraPenguin. A celebration of Molly Cobb from For All Mankind. Humanity missed out on having heroes like this.
Come Forth Now by alba17. A great recruiter vid for Andor. So well edited and paced and featuring so many characters and their roles. Just excellent.

Nerds of the Earth, take note! by Betty, Emeraldwoman. Alec Hardison is kidnapped by SHIELD and gets to really test his skills. Fun Leverage/MCU crossover idea.

chaos, yet harmony by rain_sleet_snow. "A pair of galactic drifters build their lives in the shadow of the Empire." Eventual Jyn Erso/Ahsoka Tano but mostly an idea of where each may have ended up pre Rogue One, working as partners, and what their lives were made of after each cut loose from everything they'd known.

that was a love tug by

Ship: Fang/Izzy Hands
Medium: Art
Length: 1 piece
Rating: Mature/NSFW
My Tags: romance, happy ending, backstory, behind closed doors, intimacy, kissing, touch, body hair, size difference, scars

Description:

A monochromatic drawing of a younger Izzy and Fang having a private moment in the hold of a ship. Fang is sitting beside a crate, one arm resting on it and the other around Izzy, who is straddling his thigh. His hand rests on the small of Izzy's back, whose shirt is rucked up to reveal a few scars and some loosened laces at the back of his breeches. Izzy is leaning forward, one hand on Fang's shoulder and the other taking hold of his beard. Both are flushed, Fang smiling warmly and Izzy's eyes half-lidded as he seems to lean in for a kiss.

One of my favourite moments from the series of livestreams Kristian Nairn (Wee John) had with his castmates was the session with David Fane (Fang) and Con O'Neill (Izzy), where David Fane answered a fan question about getting his beard pulled in an episode by characterizing as it as a painless "love tug" from Izzy—to which Con O'Neill immediately shot back innuendo about imagining that Fang and Izzy have shared plenty of "love tugs" in the past.

I love these character designs for Izzy and Fang, and the way their styling captures this being a different time and dynamic in their lives. Also, just really A+ size difference, and some very sweet expressions.
