NSFW Stranger Things Steddie Art

Tue, 28 Mar 2023 23:44:08 GMT

Posted by: olivermoss

I've been maintaining a recc list of NSFW fanart from twitter for a while now on my Steddie comm. A lot of the updates are ShinyDirtyCoin posts because she puts out amazing work regularly (and I've watched some of those pieces being drawn), so I am going to be a lot more selective on those from now on. But, I am still actively maintaining the recc list since it's stuff tumblr wont allow.

I have some of the art broken out into categories and will probably need to break it out into more categories if it gets much longer.

Trick or Treat exchange recs! (Plus a bonus)

Thu, 04 Nov 2021 22:21:55 GMT

Posted by: sholio

trickortreatex released this past weekend! Here are a few recs from that. All are still anonymous.

I’d Do Anything for Love (But I Won’t Do That) (Ted Lasso, Roy & Keeley, 700 wds)
Phoebe cajoles Keeley and Roy into dressing up and taking her trick-or-treating. Keeley is enthused. Roy...is less so. Completely adorable. I haven't seen S2 yet but didn't notice any spoilers. Roy being a grumpy, devoted uncle is always my jam.

echoes never ceased (Falcon & Winter Soldier, 400 wds, Sam & Bucky gen)
The hospital's been quiet, so far. Really creepy and excellent.

Your Hands Will Do (Falcon & Winter Soldier, Bucky/Zemo, 2200 wds, explicit)
“Everyone has needs, James. It's nothing to be ashamed of.” Bucky needs some help after both his vibranium arm and his other arm are damaged in a fight. Sweet and hot, and has excellent Sam too.

That Special Touch (Cobra Kai, Johnny/Daniel, 1100 wds)
"The sooner you stop complaining, the sooner we'll be done." Pumpkin carving at the LaRusso household. Very cute.

Tuned (Cobra Kai, 975 wds, gen)
So Johnny has magic mind-reading powers now. It should alarm him, Daniel thinks, how easily he’s accepted that. Johnny with telepathy, and somehow it works! Fun, sweet, and a bit angsty, with dead-on character voices.

Monsters Come Out At Night (Stranger Things, Steve/Nancy/Jonathan, 1300 wds)
"So?" Steve asks, shifting on his feet. "Is it something or…" Monster-hunting casefic with established relationship! It has that properly creepy Stranger Things feel, and the character dynamics are really lovely.

And one bonus rec:

Locks and Keys by latestillusion (Falcon & Winter Soldier, Sam/Bucky/Zemo, 1100 wds, explicit)
Sam and Bucky convince Zemo to try out a chastity device that comes with two separate locks. Chastity-belt porn, very sweet and hot.
