  1. The Adventure of the Displaced Watcher by antennapedia. "An accident with a magical artifact sends Giles into the past. Can the specialist in hopeless cases help him before the artifact is lost and he is forever stranded?" Delightful story of Giles during Buffy S5 enlisting England's only consulting detective in the hunt, told in the form of both Watson's and his watcher's diary.

  2. Do Nothing; But Trust Your Bird To Fly by Chibihaku. "When Arthur was eight, he met a boy with golden eyes and a penchant for mischief. When he was fourteen, he met a man with a bird on his arm, and a tattoo on his thigh. When he was twenty, he watched Merlin make a whirlwind and lie about it." I really loved the central metaphor of this story and getting a glimpse into Arthur's childhood and adolescence. I also liked the compromise of the ending, which seemed to me a particularly likely outcome had this happened in canon.

  3. Serenity, Nevada by ChristinaK. "Oz's summer road trip takes him to a sleepy little town in Nevada- one that just woke up with a big new problem, and the local sheriff and citizens may have to face a reality they never expected before the closing credits." Flawless crossover with Firefly, whose characters have been transposed to a western town in postseries Buffy's timeline.

  4. Someday by seekingferret. "If we're gonna make it, things are gonna have to change." MCU vid with serious 2020 energy. State violence, the penal system, natural and unnatural disasters, political corruption, and all the everyday people.

  5. Tempt My Trouble by AurumCalendula. "'We're not friends/ And we're not lovers/ We're just trouble'" Wow, great song for Eve and Oksana but also just a wonderful capsule of what makes Killing Eve sing.

In case you missed it, the themes for Rectember Week Four are here. Come rec longfics, underrated works, and works for tiny fandoms!

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)

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.

  1. How Arthur Got His Groove Back by thegeminisage. The premise alone of this story was enough to make this Merlin tale stand out, with magic returning to Camelot by way of a curse giving everyone magical powers. But that was just the start. Readers also got a number of fixits along the way, starting with a believable shift in Morgana. Enjoyable and character centered.

  2. Killing Eve tarot cards by Low Cultured. Riveting fanart of Eve and Villanelle.

  3. Good Omens papercraft by noordze. Delightful look at our two heroes, along with photos of the process.

  4. Legacy by myrlendi (thehistorygeek). "Three months after the Battle of Endor, Luke Skywalker goes in search of a rumoured Jedi temple in a secluded part of the Mid Rim. He finds within the temple nothing but a strange artifact, which unexpectedly brings him much closer to the Jedi of old than he ever thought he would be." What I liked about this time travel story is the way the relationship between Luke and Leia develops, as well as Leia's with Anakin.

  5. kingsman(MerlinAU) fanart by nancymerthurslover. Stunning fanart of the Merlin cast in a Kingsman fusion.
