I'm reccing two lovely mentor-and-student fics I received in the recent

sakuraexchange.

The first is a Yakov & Victor fic set mostly pre- and mid-canon; it captured Yakov's voice very well and has a good exploration of their relationship:
blue roses (2618 words) by chubsonthemoon
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Yuri!!! on Ice (Anime)
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Yakov Feltsman & Victor Nikiforov
Characters: Yakov Feltsman, Victor Nikiforov, Katsuki Yuuri, Yuri Plisetsky
Additional Tags: Background Victuuri - Freeform, Introspection, Growing Up, Humor, Families of Choice, Character Study
Summary:
Yakov knew it wasn’t a fling when Japanese Yuuri hugged him so tightly he thought his ribs were going to crack.

The second is a warm Minako & Yuuri fic that starts when Yuuri is very young and explores Minako's role in his life and how their relationship changes as he grows up:
in the studio (3837 words) by jessenigma
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Yuri!!! on Ice (Anime)
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Katsuki Yuuri & Okukawa Minako

Additional Tags: Ballet, Pre-Canon, Post-Canon, Character Study, background Yuuri/Victor

Cultural Studies (759 words) by Merfilly
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Star Trek: The Original Series
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Characters: Nyota Uhura, Spock
Additional Tags: Slice of Life, Weekly Challenge: Juneteenth
Summary: Uhura is fascinated by the new system they found

Why I'm reccing it: Love the mental image of Uhura getting to use her incredible language skills to interpret new uses for old roots. Also love her interactions with Spock here, and the old-school Trek feel with a progressive, modern-day plot. Written for Ad Astra's Juneteenth challenge, too.

The Mountain Rose Before Me (3208 words) by Beatrice_Otter
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Star Trek: The Original Series
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Characters: T'Lar
Additional Tags: Religion, Missing Scene, Vulcan Culture, Telepathy, Vulcan Religion, Star Trek: III - The Search for Spock
Summary: The fal-tor-pan is an ancient and dangerous rite, unused for centuries. It is not done lightly. High Priestess T'Lar considers.

Why I'm reccing it: Absolutely excellent world-building; it fills in an interesting beat during ST:III while remaining separate enough to be completely fascinating just as a study of Vulcan culture and a particularly unexplored element of it.

Lightning (980 words) by daraoakwise
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Star Trek: Alternate Original Series
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Characters: Montgomery "Scotty" Scott (AOS)
Additional Tags: Star Trek Beyond, Missing Scene
Series: Part 3 of Higher Powers
Summary: Thunder and lightning, and a Starship falling to her death.

Why I'm reccing it: Short, but it packs a hell of a punch; despite being part of a longer series, it stands alone as a cut scene from the movie showing how Scotty managed to get out and what exactly he was up against while he did.

I recced a couple of OW hurt/comfort fics here, both with very nifty worldbuilding. :)

The fire is all we know. by magnetgirl. What I thought was great about this vid is how it made a good argument for Holden and Avasarala being critical partners in saving the Earth and saving lives. I hadn't thought about it much given that they spend little time together in the series, but they were each one another's trump card.

[VID] Stronger (Together We Are) by lomelinde. "Stronger together—in good times and in bad." A very nice assemblage of Strange New World's ensemble in its first season.

My Power by eruthros. Wonderfully edited vid celebrating the Dora Milaje across various shows and comics.

Life During Wartime by starlady. There were various Festivid submissions for different characters and arcs in S1 of Andor, but I found this one tied things together so well.

Solid by runawaynun. I've seen various vids of Chrisjen and Bobbie as they are my favorite Expanse characters, but this vid is well named. It was great to see how both these women are badasses in their own right, and dependable as the day is long.

I did not set out to read a bunch of OT3 fic for

comment_bingo but that's what ended up happening, and the fics were so good I'm reccing them here! Also recommending line art of Miss Piggy and Kermit because it is super cute.

Fanworks are from Roswell New Mexico, Cobra Kai, 9-1-1, The Muppets, and Buzzfeed Unsolved RPF.
