Actually, i have found that over the past few months, more often than not the blackice content coming from the fandom is solely healthy and prosperous love!
I’m just pulling these fics from the first few pages of ao3, they are all really awesome and i highly recommend them if you are seeking out proper communication, morally aligned loved, and healthful methods of working through problems.
In Another Time - a goldenage fic where Jack is a private and Pitch the Golden General. Its amazing with a deep and thorough plot
Substitute - a Teacher/Student verse where Jack is very forward, but they haven’t gotten to anything past banter and it’s lovely!
A Home for Fear - An amazingly long broship/friendship fic where Pitch works through his lack of social skills while he gradually cares more and more for Jack!
The Greatest Fear of the Nightmare King - Pitch loses his powers and Jack helps him! He is still being manipulative but you can see how in coming chapters he will find a terrible problem with his feelings for Jack and his old ways.
We Don’t Have to be Alone - Ciane’s sequel to an epic length love story! pure health and affection here, poor Pitch is at his wits end to be good for Jack.
Jack’s Letter - which is a fanfic of Into the Shadows we Fall (another super healthy relationship where Pitch help’s Jack work through his trauma) where Jack writes Pitch a loving goodbye letter because he is dying and he wants Pitch to know some things after he passes and Pitch is saved from the shadows.
Blackice Smut Challenge - ugh sorry, this is my oneshot fics but its on the first page and its all healthy oneshots i feel weird including it. various au’s and scenarios, honestly nothing unhealthy in the lot of it,
Uncommon Ground - might be a bit iffy for you, but Jack and Pitch get revenge upon each other in a sexual manner equally and they both like it, and the most recent chapters have feelings and confessions!
Memories - another really healthy fic! Jack and pitch are pretty mutual here, they work through finding Pitch’s memories!
A Long Way From Eden - Technically this is doublemint oreo (koz and pitch are brothers. what could be better than a jack sandwich tho?) Koz and Pitch are Naga gods that take Jack, a hostage, in and they work through being socialized and having proper manners with a human :)
AU Oneshots - anothre set of awesome healthy oneshots!
Erebus Labyrinth - An amazing greek mythology au where Pitch is the labyrinth Minotaur (only a creature feeding on fear) and he is developing feelings and care for this human who won’t die of fear! (jack, its jack if you couldn’t guess :>)
Belong - WEREWOLF AU! It’s so sweet and loving and omg its gr9!
Shackles of my Skin - still really early in it’s depiction of any possible relationship between Jack and Pitch but its written really well and proves to be something to stick around for :>
End to Beginning - really cool story where Pitch has his shadows removed. This one does contain the rape of Jack by a third party and Pitch will be helping him heal from that, but hey, might not be up your alley. still it is essentially a healthful relationship between our two boys.
Sunrise - An au where Jack is an orphan being adopted by north! Pitch hasn’t been introduced yet but this is SUPER CUTE
Counterweight - AdelaideRain’s modern au of her fic A Heavy Weight of Duty (also and amazingly healthy fic) this one focuses on the proper communication between partners in a bdsm environment and its REALLY INFORMATIVE ON CONSENT AND INFORMED PLAY!
That’s not Your Bag - A modern AU where Jack and Pitch get their luggage swapped at the airport! Adorable.
The Boogeyman’s Lullaby - An awesome story where nightmare king pitch haunt’s human Jack and they form a grudging relationship, no romance really (yet? idk if there will be) but its well written and the plot is thick and i love it!
So this is just the first 2 pages of Ao3! TONS and TONS of healthy stuff, no? When looking through the stories i only found like 2 outright non-conny fics and maybe 3-5 more questionable ones (not included in this list obviously).
The blackice trend right now, from having read *all* of these stories i recommend, definitely leans towards amazingly healthy.
There are also tumblr things going on that are nothing but great too! also some older fics that are simply lovely.
Lindz has Things that Were that focuses on Koz’ recovery after having the shadows removed, and AI Jack is an au where Jack is an intelligent computer program that develops emotions and he and Koz fall in cybernetic luuuurv (ok so that summary is bad, but its awesome and delightfully feelsy)
There is the Hot Dad au where Pitch is a working father, and Chiaroscurroterror has amazing writing for it. They also have a story called Shine which is goldenage and amazing with Jack as a confused and lonely Comet and its ADORABLE!
There is Werewolf Au where either Jack or Pitch and afflicted and there is a story called… Something Wicked This way Comes! (and Belong listed above)
We Uncertain Step - is a really promising cinderella fic that has Pitch as a handsome good king <3
ab2fsycho also has nothing but healthy fic with her two stories, Surprise Me and Hold my Tea and Watch this.
Maybe the fandom was fixated around non-consensual encounters a year ago but honestly I haven’t witnessed much of that vein of writing in a long long time, unless of course it has been used as a tool to further Jack and Pitch’s healthful relationship or as a tool to further Jack’s relationship with someone else. (bah, we aren’t talking other fics here anyways!) or even as a tool to comment on societal norms and to raise awareness of malpractice.
Even in the tag there has been nothing but good, with great consensual artwork, rp’s, and headcanon discussion. So I don’t honestly know where the notion that blackice is 100% problematic came from.
I can give more and more and more recs too, just ask! or more specific criteria if you are looking for something specific.
I think the angst in blackice is being umbrella’d with unsavory concepts whereas the angst i see is part of the road to understanding between our two boyfriendos.
I am, let it be known, 100% in favor of Jack and Pitch fluff :3 bring it on nerds!
