I wouldn't remember most fics under 1k if I were asked off the top of my head, and the few I would, I rec'd the other week in the "works I re-read" post. However, this is exactly why I built a fanfic database in the first place. A little fiddling with the SQL to build the right query and some formatting to create a report, and I have a list of all my favorite fics (that were entered in the database so far - I didn't quite get to 1000 total fics before the Yahoo Groups project took over my life last fall, only a handful of smaller fandoms) which are under 1K words. Since that list includes any favorites of the works I wrote, which would violate the self-rec rules, I'll paste the recs here and filter those out.

The one thing that this list doesn't have are the ships, though I'll try to note those if I remember them. (I can run queries and generate reports that limit by ships - or any number of themes, for that matter - that's easy enough, but to include the list of ships in the query results or report would be prohibitively difficult and the results would be terrible to try to wade through, formatting-wise.) So you're getting author - title, with rating and words below that. I'll group fandoms under cuts to make it easier to expand just the ones you know, since this is mainly tiny/rare fandoms. (I'd started with the small ones, adding those to my database, and I hadn't finished the Matrix ones, even, plus I know I'm behind on the FBI ones since that's been an active fandom.)

With short fics it takes more time to describe them than it does to read them, so I'm probably not going to say anything about most of them, and recommend just trying them. I'll try to warn if there's any serious triggers that I remember, but mostly just look at the tags.

One note about ratings: My database includes fics from both Fanfiction.net and AO3, so I adopted a standard MPAA-style rating system, where G to R corresponds to ff.n's K to M, and PG to X (which was shorter to use than NC-17) corresponds to AO3's General Audiences to Explicit, but I may occasionally mark a General as G if it's particularly suitable for children to read. It's a bit of a compromise but so would be any other option. Fics that chose not to use a rating (on AO3 or a blog post) are Unrated.

Crossovers )

Alphas )

FBI (TV) )

Flood (2007) )

Fried Green Tomatoes )

Push (2009) )

The Matrix )

I hope someone finds something enjoyable on this list. :)

Having always had an interest in Arthurian stories, when I heard about BBC's Merlin I checked it out. And I was so disappointed in it that I didn't try again for several years.

One work that made me think I should was the vid "Red" by obsessive24. It's striking to watch, even if one doesn't know the canon (and, as is the case with quite a few Merlin vids, makes it look much better and more coherent than it is). It was likely because of Red that I ended up trying out Steam by new_kate, "Renaissance-era Steampunk reincarnation AU featuring brilliant engineer Prince Arthur, his savant mechanic Merlin, a robot bird, and an evil mecha."

I don't even recall how I came across it now, but I'm guessing it was someone's rec, and it sounded intriguing enough that I gave it a go. I enjoyed the fic and decided to try the series again before going after more fanworks.

I still think it is a deeply flawed canon, but after a bit I grasped why the fandom had latched on to it so tightly. That would be a separate essay, but without fanworks I would surely never have watched the show nor continue to read in it regularly.

In terms of minor characters, the first one that popped into my head was J.A.R.V.I.S. He adds a lot to many a story, but I recall one in particular focused on him -- The Son Of Man by copperbadge. "JARVIS did not want to be a real boy. He was quite happy being a building." It was particularly nice that it was a long fic as well!

I don't tend to read much under 5000 words much less 1000, but I did have one item in my bookmarks, also, as it turns out, featuring J.A.R.V.I.S.: Verb: Buttling by redsrule1.

bring me home (like memories do) by echelons
Fandom: X-Men Comicsverse
Pairing: Logan/Ororo
Word Count: 863 words
Rating: T
Warnings: Canon Typical Violence
Summary: Alone, injured, and amnesiac, Logan remembers someone else.
Reccer's Note: Poor amnesic Logan has some memory flashes of Ororo, I really like how this author describes the memory flashes, and really conveys the thought process of a sad, confused, but determined Logan.

I Saved A Plate For You by ilgaksu
Fandom: Hawkeye Comics
Pairing: Clint & Kate
Word Count: 326 words
Rating: G
Warnings: None
Summary: Kate finds out about the farm.
Reccer's Note: A little bit of a mix of the Hawkeye comics and the films, because here Clint has the farm which is a movieverse creation. It is Clint's POV and a look at how much he wants Kate to be a part of his universe.

The Grand Plan by Cornerofmadness
Fandom: Star Trek TNG
Pairing: Beverly & Deanna
Word Count: 228 words
Rating: T
Warnings: None
Summary: Beverly has something she wants to ask Deanna.
Reccer's Note: I'm a little biased because this was written for me, but it is a cute little slice of life, where Bev knows exactly how to tempt Deanna

Fictober18 #7 "Don't Worry, We Still have Time" by KaCole
Fandom: Star Trek VOY
Pairing: Janeway/Chakotay
Word Count: 331 words
Rating: T
Warnings: None
Summary: Chakotay has issues after Tom Paris and Kathryn's trip into transwarp.
Reccer's Note: A little coda to Theshold, if Janeway and Chakotay had already been in an established relationship.

  • Crimson Peak: pinned, unravelled by [archiveofourown.org profile] afterism. NSFW: Lucille finds a way to trap Edith.

  • Doctor Who: The Most Elementary of Errors by [deviantart.com profile] orbitalwings. SFW: Jenny and Vastra kissing in the snow.

  • snickfic: Valkyrie looking up, well-lit (Val)
    [personal profile] snickfic
    Valkyrie from Thor: Ragnarok is one of my very favorite MCU characters, and I've collected here some of my favorite works focused on her. <3

    ART
    ART: Valkyrie falls from her pegasus by [tumblr.com profile] willow_s_linda - SFW, a really neat Disney-type style, clearly drawn with love by someone who loves horses

    ART: Valkyrie on the battlefield, haunted by ghosts by [tumblr.com profile] poxei - SFW. Great concept, gorgeous execution.

    ART: Carol/Valkyrie naked cuddling by [twitter.com profile] moishpain - NSFW. Gorgeous and hot.

    FIC
    What Heroes Do by [archiveofourown.org profile] AliceinKinkland
    Valkyrie-centric Val/Loki, 5k. One of my foundational stories for Valkyrie. I love how it touches on her history as a slaver. I love her dynamic with Loki, as another person with very mixed feelings about Asgard, trying to reinvent himself and figure out who he is. Everything about it is good. <3

    the valiant never taste of death but once by [archiveofourown.org profile] Ias
    Valkyrie/Blonde Valkyrie, Valkyrie/Hela, 18k. This is a look at the end of Asgard’s era of conquest, through Val’s eyes. This is just brutal in the best way. I love the psychology here of Val and her commander gf, and also Val and Hela, how Val has never really believed in Asgard’s shining ideal and ends up being drawn to Hela as someone who embodies the opposite of it. Just really interesting stuff here.

    the ghost and good queen val by [archiveofourown.org profile] Wildehack
    Valkyrie/Loki/Thor, 8k. Valkyrie with what remain of the refugees, after Loki and Thor are presumed dead. Post-IW fixit from Val’s perspective, with flashbacks. I love everything about this—Val as grudging leader of the remaining refugees because she’s the only one left, Val and Loki in their prickly FWB situation while they both are in love with Thor, Loki and his magical sleeves interdimensional cupboard. The voices are great, the humor and the grief is great. A+++.

    i brought a knife to a gun fight by [archiveofourown.org profile] paperclipbitch
    Valkyrie + Bruce, 2k. In which they come to terms with each other, a little. Great voices, very funny, great characterization.

    Time Share by [archiveofourown.org profile] thingswithwings
    Valkyrie/Bruce, 12k. After Ragnarok, Val talks the Hulk and Bruce into a truce. I love how much Val and the Hulk just really enjoy each other, and how Val and Bruce build something between them, too, despite not being sure what to make of each other at first. I am absolutely in denial about the final scene.

    my black eye casts no shadow by [archiveofourown.org profile] Queelez
    Carol/Valkyrie, 5k. Carol hires Valkyrie to help her on a rescue mission. The voices and dynamic here is great, and I freaking love the body horror elements, as they're rescuing folks from, as the notes warn for, "forced roboticization." :D :D :D

    The Slow Death of Winter by [archiveofourown.org profile] misura
    Valkyrie/Hela, 2k. In which Valkyrie ends up locked in Hela's prison, and Hela has reasons to keep her alive. Hilariously awkward hurt/comfort, less murder and sadism than one might expect, and Hela's narrative voice is great.

    Nostalgic by [archiveofourown.org profile] thedevilchicken
    Valkyrie/Hela, 1k. Val thinks back on the time Hela had Valkyrie eat her out on the throne of Asgard. This is short but packs a hell of a punch, with a great last line. Also: scorching hot.

    and i've loved in shades of wrong by [archiveofourown.org profile] ginnyweasleys
    Valkyrie/Loki, 6k. Sparring leads to fucking; after the first couple of times it happens, Loki's feelings start to get more complicated. I liked their dynamic here, and the sex is 🔥.

    Port Out, Starboard Home by [archiveofourown.org profile] scioscribe
    Valkyrie/Loki, 15k. Post-Ragnarok, Loki is pregnant and blue and Val marries him to protect him from various threats. I also love fic where Loki is forced to deal with being Jotun, and then Val is so great in this, and the romance is so sweet and understated and yet feels like it goes really deep, under the sarcasm and teasing. My heart. ;_;

    * Cursed to be a monster!Jungkook by [twitter.com profile] Meowclifer - A fantasy AU in which Jungkook is a prince cursed to become an actually!cuddly monster. The fact that Yeontan (Taehyung's dog) shows up, also hints at some potential Jungkook/Taehyung goodies. :)


    * Amazing acrylic paint of King Yoongi by [twitter.com profile] minhmiracleart - A gorgeous painting based on Yoongi's look as the Hoseon era, evil king in the Daechwita mv.


    * BTS as geese fanart 1 (Seokjin and Taehyung) and 2 (four of Jungkook's looks by [twitter.com profile] reallynotjin - I love the goofiness in seeing geese versions of Seokjin, Taehyung, and Jungkook. These pieces are sure to make you smile.


    * A SOFTE Taehyung/Yoongi moment by [twitter.com profile] dblacat - (Implied nudity because one of the characters is taking a bath, but there's nothing specifically NSFW here) I love the color palette in this piece. Yoongi and Teahyung's overall relaxed and intimate vibe draws you in.


    * Fairy!Jin by [twitter.com profile] NevDrawsAyy - It's Jin in his fave pink hoodie smiling at you while sitting on a flower. This is too cute to not share with y'all.


    * YoonKook and Vmin hands by [twitter.com profile] neptuneartyk - Although I wouldn't say I'm a hands-type of person, there's something abt Yoongi's hands that makes me swoon. In this instance, the artist has used some of the choreography and/or concert moments to showcase Yoongi/Jungkook. I love the contrast between Yoongi's pale hands and Jungkook's tattooed ones. And then, the second piece has Taehyung's long hands holding onto Jimin's much smaller ones. It's adorable.


    * Taehyung x Basquiat by [twitter.com profile] xvii_rx (a.k.a. Roach) - Roach is one of those artists whose pieces ALWAYS makes me stop and really take my time to appreciate everything happening in them. Here we see Roach do a Taehyung portrait inspired by Basquiat. The vibrant colors and overall style are fantastic.

    This is a rec for an Explicit fic where the smut does the heavy emotional lifting and is the catalyst for serious character growth. The uncommon kink (at least for my ships) is mutual masturbation. I see this mistagged all the time when people actually mean finger fucking and it makes me sad because I adore mutual masturbation. This fic delivers on that front in spades.

    The key themes are sexual discovery and coming out/internalized homophobia.

    Title: Pansy, Rows, and Mutual Wanking
    Author: [archiveofourown.org profile] violetclarity Artist: [archiveofourown.org profile] kysprite
    Ship: Hermione Granger/Pansy Parkinson
    Word Count: 27,052
    Tags: Hogwarts, Hogwarts Eighth Year, Roommates, Party Games, Truth or Dare, Underage Drinking, Research Projects, Internalized Homophobia, Coming Out (to oneself & others), Denial, Friendship, Fights, Getting Together, Masturbation, Mutual Masturbation, Explicit Sexual Content, Sexual exploration, sexual realizations
    Rec: This fic really utilized mutual masturbation as a vehicle for mutual exploration and discovery in a way of I haven’t ever read before. There is also untagged shower sex. The smut is 10/10. Hermione goes on a journey, and it’s a joy to read. But, she’s also filled with doubt and fear about herself which causes her to act like a bit of an asshole. If you want a sexual awakening journey through porn, this is the fic for you!

    charlottenewtons: (yennefer)
    [personal profile] charlottenewtons
    First post to share some favourite fanarts, mostly from tumblr. All are safe for work unless otherwise stated.

    1. The Witcher: Yennefer/Geralt (+ Roach) by astrolunos
    Me, my husband and his 1000 pound horse. It makes me laugh a lot.

    2. DC: Harley Quinn by za-ra-h
    Really stunning art of Harley in some period clothing.

    3. Killing Eve: Villanelle/Eve by hoffmanpictures
    There's lots of great KE fanart but this has to be my favourite. I particularly like the way it uses colour.

    4. Twin Peaks: Pinned Down by delina
    Audrey/Cooper. NSFW. Really hot, fantastically detailed piece of art.

    5. Star Wars: Kylo Ren & Leia by mythoughtcrime
    Amazing role reversal AU with Leia as a sith and Kylo as a jedi. The artist has actually done a few panels for this AU that are linked in the original post.

    frausorge: Benton Fraser in his Mountie uniform and Ray Kowalski wearing his shoulder holster, standing on opposite sides of an opened door, with some dots of light scattered over the image (getting there)

    Two recs for fanart, both watercolors with a floral theme:

    Decorative Effusions by [archiveofourown.org profile] mific
    due South, m/m, Benton Fraser/Ray Kowalski, fanart, SFW

    This is from Flower Crown Day 2020 and shows Fraser and Ray appropriately adorned. The crowns are beautifully painted, and the facial expressions are priceless.


    watercolor portraits of joe pavelski in teal with the golden poppy of california and in green with the yellow rose of texas by [tumblr.com profile] 18minutemajor
    Hockey, gen, Joe Pavelski, fanart, SFW

    I love the use of the flowers to symbolize his old and new teams, and how the flowers as well as the uniform colors shade onto his face which to me suggests something about how big a role being part of a team has on a player's identity.
    yuuago: (Yuri on Ice - GuangHong - :D)
    [personal profile] yuuago
    Side by Side by Rebecca @ Ao3 is an adorable pair skating fanart of Leo and Guanghong from Yuri on Ice. It was drawn for the Rare Male Slash Exchange, and I don't know if it was crossposted anywhere else.

    Super sweet, catches the intimacy of this kind of skating! Kind of mimics the anime's style a bit, which is neat. Always lovely to see something new with this rare pairing. <3
    kingstoken: Joe/Nicky from The Old Guard (Joe Nicky)
    [personal profile] kingstoken
    My newest favourite ship is TOS Spones, so here are a few recs

    Not Everything Happens Quickly by OnlySlightlyObsessed1
    Word Count: 8722 words
    Rating: M
    Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
    Summary: If Spock could only put the incident from his mind and focus on his work, he would be content. He did not have infinite time to spend on personal reflection.
    Reccer's Note: McCoy almost dies and Spock can't figure out why the incident still bothers him so much. I really like the author's writing of Spock's self reflection and thought process and his realization that he has feelings for McCoy.

    Nothing By Halves by therev
    Word Count: 10608 words
    Rating: M
    Warnings: Choose No to Use warnings
    Summary: McCoy wishes he could talk to Spock's human half. After a transporter malfunction, he can.
    Reccer's Note: Another transporter accident, in this one Spock is split into two people, a human Spock and a Vulcan Spock, and things get a little complicated when McCoy starts to have feelings for Spock's human half. This one had the feeling of a trek episode, with the added bonus of Spones feelings.

    Mirror, Mirror by twisting_vine_x
    Word Count: 17683 words
    Rating: T
    Warnings: Choose No to Use warnings
    Summary: Dealing with the aftermath of mirror!Spock’s forced mindmeld
    Reccer's Note: I'm a sucker for anything that deals with the aftermath of McCoy's mind-rape by Mirror!Spock. McCoy is not dealing with his trauma well, plus he has residual effects from the meld left in his mind, Spock realizes that something is wrong and confronts McCoy. This fic handles McCoy's trauma well, and also has good descriptions of mind melds.

    Surgeon's Mate by belmanoir
    Word Count: 4590 words
    Rating: M
    Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
    Summary: Spock likes McCoy. McCoy won't take a hint.
    Reccer's Note: Dealing with the aftermath of "Bread and Circuses", a great pining Spock fic, with McCoy being under the mistaken impression that Spock is pining for Kirk.

    Negativity Bias by OnlySlightlyObsessed1
    Word Count: 6222 words
    Rating: M
    Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
    Summary: It's a common human characteristic to interpret ambiguity as a negative. McCoy is several assumptions ahead of Spock
    Reccer's Note: The fic begins during the episode "Operation Annihilate", the author changes the reason for Spock's eyesight returning, and I think I like their explanation better than the show's. I also really like that in this fic McCoy reveals his feelings, although he thinks that Spock isn't interested, so he thinks he is going to be stoic about the whole thing, which just confuses Spock.

    Hi, all! In case you missed it, we have a week of Rectember themes here.

    And for those of you who have unthemed recs you'd like to share, here is our weekly community recs post! Every Thursday, we have a post 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, if you don't have a DW account to make posts of your own, or if you're just shy. :)

    (But don't forget, you're also welcome to post recs directly to the comm seven days a week. :D)

    So, what cool fic/art/vid have we discovered this week? Drop it in the comments below! Anon comments are enabled.

    A mix of different kinks and fandoms:

    *Magical Milk by [archiveofourown.org profile] wearing_tearing (MCU, Steve/Bucky, 8.6k, Explicit) Kink: cismale lactation

    The aftermath of a routine fight with a villain of the week leaves Steve with the temporary ability to lactate. Bucky digs it. A pretty hot fic. There's a sequel in which Bucky ends up being the one with the temporary ability too, btw.


    * Support Your Back by [archiveofourown.org profile] dsudis (Check, Please!, Jack/Bitty, Explicit, 2k) Kink: Forniphilia

    Jack finds a new way to unwind by sheer accident. The way that the reader is shown what exactly fornophilia might be for both the kinkster and their partner is done with care. (Also, if you like to read across a lot of kinks and fandoms, Dira might be the author tho check out.)


    * dressed in white noise by [archiveofourown.irg profile] elfipike (BTS RPF, Yoongi/inanimate objects, Yoongi/RM, 5.4k words, Explicit) Kink: paraphilia

    I know I've already recced this, but there was no way I was going to pass up the opportunity to do it again, LOL. It's an introspective, imo, PWP about a rare-ish kink and how play partners approach it. One thing I liked was that, at no time was Yoongi made to feel lesser than or ashamed for his kink.


    * In the Same Boat by [archiveofourown.org profile] pornographic (BTS RPF, Vmin, Explicit, 3.8k) Kink: Docking

    Two college bros who have been BFFs for years explore a new kink. This is an incredibly sensual fic as well as super full of emotion.


    * Cooky Face Cushion (42 cms) by[archiveofourown.org profile] rmonolisa (BTS RPF, RM/JK, Explicit, 3.8k) Kink: plushophilia

    I will mention that the story begins with an incident of accidental voyeurism. It's dealt with quickly and honestly, tho. One specific thing about this fic that I liked was Jungkook's enthusiasm overriding his surprise at realizing what was happening. Also the choice of plushie that RM was playing with. AHEM.

    Anyway, I have to admit that this fic, to me was, sneakily tender. Yes, even with all the naughty play happening in it. ;D

    Wow, thank you guys so much for all the activity! I wasn't sure how much to expect, but you guys have been knocking it out of the park! If you didn't finish all your week one recs, not to worry, we'll have a couple of days for catch-up at the end of the month (or you could just post them now, we won't complain about more recs 😉).

    And now, here are our WEEK TWO themes! Week two spans September 8-14.

    WEEK TWO THEMES
    - Fanart
    - Works for your favorite ship or character
    - Works about an uncommon kink
    rigormorphis: Wei Wuxian in a blood-red palette (mdzs: wwx in red)
    [personal profile] rigormorphis
    Vid recs for Rectember! Here's a handful of vids that I keep going back to, a few of them old classics and a few more recent finds. All recced vids are SFW.

    Marvel Comics / MCU / X-Men Movieverse
    Straightening Up the House by [archiveofourown.org profile] eruthros
    The tag "angry vidding" in conjunction with the vidder's summary pretty much says it all: Commemorating more than ten years of queer characters (not) appearing in Marvel films. I love this vid, it's bitter and ambitious and visually engaging, it's set to the perfect music, and... well, it illustrates its point VERY EFFECTIVELY. As a long time queer comics reader it felt a lot like someone had gathered up all my frustrations and set them whimsically to music.

    The Untamed / The Fatal Journey
    children's work by [twitter.com profile] LuckyDiceKirby
    A vid about Nie Huaisang and Nie Mingjue using (mostly) footage from The Untamed's spinoff film The Fatal Journey. (Fair warning: this vid contains massive spoilers for the plot of The Untamed!) There are some genius moments in this vid that will always stick in my head the most - the upshot of Nie Huaisang bowing is one example - but every time I rewatch I spot another great little subtlety I hadn't noticed before.

    RPF (or Real Person Vid?): Britney Spears
    Piece of Me by [livejournal.com profile] obsessive24
    This vid is 12 years old and I still think about it whenever I think about Britney Spears. It was a little before its time in that regard, I think (though perhaps also reflective of its time in the vidders' notes/comments). It sucks how relevant this vid continues to be more than a decade on, but I think it's an excellent vid that does a great job of making its point about how the American pop music industry chews up and spits out its young stars.

    My Cat From Hell
    Tail as Old as Time by [archiveofourown.org profile] eruthros & [archiveofourown.org profile] thingswithwings
    I almost didn't include this vid here because I already have a vid by eruthros on this reclist and besides, what if it wasn't as good as I remembered? But then I rewatched it and great news, it's still fantastic. I hadn't seen a single episode of My Cat From Hell when I first saw this but honestly, you really don't need to have; you just need to have at least some degree of affection for cats. I'm pretty sure that I clutched my chest cartoonishly irl the first time I watched it.
    glassesofjustice: A close up of Alex Cabot’s face and her signature Glasses of Justice, heavy black frames. (Default)
    [personal profile] glassesofjustice
    People who know me, know I tend to balk at the suggestion of reading fics longer than 5K. Not because I don’t enjoy longfic, but it’s just such an event for me, and something I don’t have the energy for most days. So, it’s as much a shock to me as anybody, I’m sure, that the thing I’ve reread the most in the last year is an 85K canon divergence AU. This is the OT3 you didn’t know you needed.

    Dreaming of Both by [archiveofourown.org profile] miri_cleo
    Ship: Peter Parker/Pepper Potts/Tony Stark
    Summary: Pepper knew it was a long shot, and the moment Peter Parker stepped off of that ship instead of Tony, she knew her worst fear had happened. Peter Parker knows he fucked up. He let down Tony Stark; he let down the whole world. And he lost all of it. They didn't expect to pick up the pieces together, or the work it would take to help Tony fit back in once they got him back.
    mithborien: (Default)
    [personal profile] mithborien

    So when I was choosing fics to rec for this theme, I wasn't paying attention to any overall themes that were occurring. But now that I have compiled the list, I have realised that they all follow the same theme, which is domestic & emotional intimacy. There's also lots of sexual intimacy but the domestic intimacy really stands out.

    So if you like Steve/Bucky (because I am still on that train) and love domestic intimacy then boy, do I have a list for you.

    8x Recs behind a cut because apparently I rambled on about them... )
