(But don't forget: you can deffo make posts of your own seven days a week. ;D!)

A few recs from Diagetic Exchange
Jun. 17th, 2025 07:31 pmsholio![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png){kind=small}
diegetic_exchange is for in-universe fanfic/RPF/etc. Here are some things I enjoyed from it!Babylon 5
Stars Uncrossed: My Vorlon Sex Story! (1300 words, explicit)
OF COURSE there is Vorlon/human reader insert smut on Future Space AO3, and of course there are some very recognizable Space AO3 usernames in the comments. The author's notes are also pure gold. MINBARI DNI.
Megamind
Am I the Asshole for impersonating someone else to be with my girlfriend? (700 words, Megamind/Roxanne)
The most in-character thing ever. The comments are great, and also extremely in character.
Murderbot Diaries
Bot Sacrifice (600 wds, gen)
Sanctuary Moon fanfic with ART's inline beta comments. Hilarious and very them, and also very touching.

Rec Lists for SNK, XMFC, The Untamed
May. 22nd, 2025 12:36 pmunrelaxingOver time I've made a few rec lists for friends and never thought to share them with the wider fandom, so I thought it would be nice to do that and post it here!
An SNK (specifically Levi/Eren) rec list from Aug. 13 2022 with 40 recs, split into CANON, CANON DIVERGENCE, REINCARNATION and ALTERNATE UNIVERSE.
Example recs:
Grown To Be Wild by graves | T, 4k | Hanahaki. Eren wakes hours before dawn with his hands tearing at his throat.
Pinecones by ShamelesslyPoetic | G, 5k | While Eren is wandering in the forest, he meets a short, dark, handsome soldier and immediately falls in love.
10 X-Men: First Class (Charles/Erik) fics under 1000 kudos, posted on Apr. 30, 2022 (some of these stories have since gotten 1k kudos).
Example recs:
Kiss and Tell by pearl_o | T, 2k | It's been a long time since Charles and Raven were able to sit down and really talk to each other, but the awkwardness of the occasion is lessened by a lot of red wine and comparing notes on something they have in common - namely, what Erik was like in bed.
Kintsugi by xtinethepirate | E, 49k | When Charles had told Hank there would be a time when they would all be together again, he hadn't meant immediately. In Charles’s mind, that indeterminate time was something more along the lines of “in a few months or a year, once Erik realized what a colossal ass he had been and Charles had stopped wanting to punch him again.”
An MDZS Fic Sampler with 16 fics, with a subsection of fics specifically where the Wen Remnants survive, posted on Apr. 22, 2020.
Example recs:
Seldom All They Seem by fahye | 24k, E | He bows to Wei Wuxian, sword in hand, sleeves falling properly. Wei Wuxian bows in return, and the sect leaders begin the opening courtesies, and for all of ten minutes Lan Wangji is under the impression that he is betrothed to a boy who is perfectly normal and acceptable apart from an unfortunate tendency to fidget with his clothes. That impression does not last.
Operation Old Men by chiharu | 17k | An ill-fated parent teacher conference reunites Jin Ling's wayward uncle with Sizhui's father. AKA: A matchmaking disaster as told by Jin Ling, Sizhui, and Jingyi.

delphiContinuing with my goal to make fifty rec posts in my journal this year, here's a roundup from April.
( 1 x Our Flag Means Death Vid (Izzy Hands & Ensemble) )
( 1 x Our Flag Means Death Art (Oluwande Boodhari/Jim Jimenez) )
( 1 x Our Flag Means Death Icon Set (Roach) )

yourlibrarian- Full Disk Burn by fallintosanity (yopumpkinhead). Murderbot takes a backstage tour of a serial and winds up in an unexpected adventure. I enjoyed the interactions with Art and their observations.
- Ordinary Life by speranza and astolat. The dialogue and banter between John and Rodney was excellent and kept the story moving right along. Amusing and action packed.
- From the Shadows to the Light by PeaceHeather. Merlin post-S5 fic where everyone lives...everyone. As with many stories that are this long there is a lot of repetitive character thoughts and circular writing that could have been cut out. It could have been about a third shorter, in fact. That said, I enjoyed both the story ideas and the original characters, and I think this did quite a good job in taking us from what we got in canon to where it should have gone. The story balances both Arthur and Merlin and getting them mentally and emotionally to a point where they could truly work together. I do wish, given the story's length, that we could have gotten more of that but I think it left off in a place where we could see everything coming together.
- floating, sinking by shuofthewind. Another "everybody lives" story, this picks up from the destruction of Scarif to characters in bacta tanks and in a bad way. Nonetheless Jyn is obsessed with getting the plans into the Alliance's hands given Leia's capture. Another lengthy story I thought dragged on a bit too long, but then I'm also not a shippy reader for the fandom. There is a fair amount of suspense in terms of seeing the team finally meet up with the soon-to-be-heroes of the Rebellion aboard the Death Star, and I thought it did a good job of melding the grimmer view of Rogue One with the more optimistic one of New Hope.
- An Ever-Fixed Mark by AMarguerite. Soulmark AU of Pride and Prejudice. I thought the tone and characterizations were really enjoyable and the long road to conclusion an enjoyable one to follow.
