Rec the Thing

* Think Tidy by nivo (Hobi/Yoongi, 2.1k, Mature) - I have to admit that Sope (Hobi/Yoongi) is one of those ships that I am still dipping my toes in. It's obvious they really care/love each other IRL, so it's fairly easy to understand why they'd be a lovely ship to explore in fic.

In this story, they're newly assigned roommates. Hobi is over the moon at living with someone who enjoys keeping living spaces neat and Yoongi (despite his initial gruff exterior) is a marshmallow of a person. I'd have legit read a 20k fic set in this 'verse.


* sweet hot jackpot (winning the office pool) by (Teen, Seokjin/Jimin,10.1k, Office AU) - New hire!Jimin makes a terrible mistake in eating someone else's food. Now everyone keeps pushing him to fix it.

Do you like zany premises or goofy humor? Then this fic might be for you! I will say that I liked the Office Shenanigans more than the actual romance between Seokjin and Jimin (tho it was lovely!). Still, it made me take a closer look at the oldest hyungs per age group (the hyung and maknae lines) and consider how and why there would be sparkage between them.

BTW, if you do find yourself becoming a Seokjin/Jimin shipper, this author has several fics to scratch that itch. ;)


* Green witch!Namjoon by aptyaki - Canonically, Namjoon (RM) is someone who loves Nature. He has a pet bonsai tree and everything.

This fanart is a gentle spin in that love for flora and fauna by making him a green witch. Not only is the art great (the artist did a really good likeness of RM), but it's also whimsical in the best way possible.


* Hobi/Jungkook fanart by oursummer_ends (Content warning: NSFW fanart that contains nudity (not full frontal, but you can see butt))- Hobi/Jungkook is another one of those ships that I'm slowly checking out. This piece is a rather naughty moment of the two of them in bed. I liked the colors and the intimacy throughout.


* RM/Jungkook Mutual Admiration Society by rinandrix - One of the reasons why I knew I just had to include this rec is that it plays with (again) canonical details. IRL, Jungkook, who had been wooed by several idol agencies, decided to sign with Big Hit (and join BTS) mainly because of RM. In turn, RM was quite starry-eyed about Jungkook because of his talent. They both happen to be sort of muscle bros too.

This fanart highlights the literal mutual admiration in a way that can be considered platonic or romantic or sexual. It's quite neat that way. ;D

A mix of different kinks and fandoms:

*Magical Milk by 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 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 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 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) byrmonolisa (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
