Every Thursday, we have a community post, just 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, or if you don't have a DW account, or if you're shy. ;)

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

So what cool podfics/fanarts/fanvids/fics/fancrafts/some other kind of fanwork have we discovered this week? Drop it in the comments below. Anon comment is enabled

I have made a post reccing several works from the Five Figure Fanwork Exchange on my personal journal! There are a variety of fandoms including Naruto, original works, MCU, and several video game, movie, and TV fandoms.

Recs this way!

It's the last day of Femslash February, so let's just say that I deliberately waited until the last day to post this. Here are 23 of my favourite femslash vids, across 23 different fandoms. I was going to add commentary but I don't have the required brain power at the moment, but know that I think these are all awesome vids.

23x Fanvid Recs for Femslash February
yourlibrarian: Who Brian Is (QAF-WhoIAmbymaiaj)

  1. Open-Mouthed into the Ocean
    by stymphalides. "Years after Merlin and Morgana fled Camelot together, they receive a surprise visitor who promises change." A play in one act in a single room, wonderfully paced and which earns its slow and not entirely certain resolution.

  2. I Feel the Earth Move [Fanvid] by periru3, Tafadhali. Enormously fun disaster movie tribute (with a very apropos title sequence!)

  3. Vid: Stand By You by thingswithwings. "Male privilege is a shield; you can choose what you use the shield for." Sometimes you have to see the future to get there.

  4. Should Have Known Better by wrensandroses. I haven't seen a Queer as Folk vid for a long time, but I quite liked this one. For one thing it focuses on Brian's arc rather than his relationship with Justin, which I appreciated because I've seen such a bunch of ship vids for them in the past. And secondly, I think it does a good job of mining critical issues he confronts during the series.

  5. He's Safe Here by mayalunas. I really like BYOFP gifsets, which are (sometimes animated) fanfumetti. I thought this Merlin one worked really well as a slice of a larger story.

  1. DC-SlashCon 2021 Opening Vid by Aaronantium, Kerguelen (Slashmommy). Dozens of slash ships take their bows in a wonderfully edited vid celebrating what brings many fans together.

  2. Merlin and Arthur kissing by Alex the Sapphic. Maybe NSFW? Beautifully done, the pose, the joined hands, the expressive details.

  3. But Now, I Know by IgnatiousTheWarlock. "Post the battle of Camlann, Morgana is approached by a mysterious force who gives her a second chance. Time is rewound. In a world so familiar, but strange, what will Morgana do with her second chance?" I've seen a number of time travel fics featuring either Merlin or Arthur but this is the first I can remember seeing using Morgana. An inventive plot and I like that the path was not smooth.

  4. The Order of the Wakandan Tribes by Petite Madame. Stunning fanart of the Black Panther cast.

  5. to buy my love a sword of steel by athousandvictories. Merlin if it took itself more seriously and actually focused on the traditional battles of Arthur's legendary campaign to unite Albion. Wonderfully done.

  1. World Enough and Time by alicephantomwise. "Arthur had had it all figured out. And then Merlin shot him in Beijing." Not everyone's cup of tea, as it can be disturbing that Merlin and Arthur are assassins who enjoy their jobs. But it is interesting to see them in a different sort of relationship, one which doesn't follow a predictable path.

  2. [Podfic] The Spirit of the Law by GodOfLaundryBaskets. "Bruce Maddox gets what he wanted, and then what he deserves." This ST:TNG story is creepy in a suspenseful way.

  3. Are We Human? An Interrogation in Three Parts by echan. More a meta piece than the usual music vid, this work puts together bits from a number of canons that engage in the representation of sentient AIs. To my mind it asks what we're doing as we both create and imagine the future.

  4. [ART] Golden Age by Mygalomorff. "Doodle of Merlin and Arthur sharing a happy moment together." Not often we see them laughing together and there was such a happy atmosphere for this.

  5. Fanart of Bucky and Sam baking by muffinshark. Particularly love Bucky's apron.

  6. Flower Crowns by Spica. Speaking of happy atmosphere, love to see Gwen and Merlin interacting in art, and she looks so adorable as they have fun.

The Big Bang Theory
So, hear me out, the sitcom nature of TBBT combined with the sci-fi/apocalypse potential of characters like "scientist who cuts up brains," "theoretical physicist with a sense of hubris," and "the it-girl who can gut a fish and shoot a gun," is like, the perfect brew.

yourlibrarian: Georgiou is Divided (TREK-GeorgiouDivided-xafirah)
[personal profile] yourlibrarian

  1. Pilots Get It Up Faster by flawedamythyst. Delightful ficlet suggesting how Tony Stark and Cabin Pressure's pilots might have crossed paths.

  2. Playing the Field by this_is_kelly. "Arthur is the star player for Chicago's professional football team. Merlin is on the coaching staff in Montreal. A chance meet-up turns into a one-night stand, but one night ends up not being enough and now they're both in over their heads." I tend to like sports AU stories which is why I downloaded this, but the genre seemed to be chosen mostly for its roadblocks than to explore anything about it. But I was delighted by what it did do. Given their situation, this relationship seemed to develop very realistically given who both of them would be, and it did so in an unsentimental way, which I really appreciate and wish I saw more often.

  3. Star Trek Discovery in the 32nd Century (Buck Rogers Mash-Up) by shyaporn. As described, and a bit of fun for anyone who ever saw both shows.

  4. Bounty by The_Alias (Artemis_Day). "When Jane discovered the secret to harnessing wormholes, the most she expected was a few prestigious prizes and maybe some extra grant money. She did not expect to become the target of a persistent and enigmatic bounty hunter." Aside from a particularly funny moment with Darcy, this fic is just an ongoing battle of wits, which is my favorite way of spending time with Loki and Jane Foster.

  5. It's Still Science Fiction to Me by azurish. "From clones to spaceships to time travel, and silly special effects to cutting edge technology, it’s all part of the genre we love." Truly impressive list of shows and movies included for a genre fan squee fest.
