I hope canonically wherever they are...

...That David and Patrick are having the best life together.

The coven is extremely pleased to bring you this very special collection for Fic Rec Friday.

We are so excited for and so proud of Noah Reid and everything he has going on right now. In honor of opening night of The Minutes and the premiere of Outer Range, we’re highlighting some fics that feature Patrick in roles similar to those of the play and the show: cowboy, musician, councilman, and Broadway star.

Enjoy the fics, support Noah however you can, and show the creators some love! * * * * * * * * *

All the songs I sing are about you ( @missgeevious​) “Former boybander David is looking to revitalize his career and finds some help from Patrick, a talented musician and bartender, in this ‘Music & Lyrics’-inspired AU.”

Bright lights. (falconeggs/@focksii​) “Musician Patrick, Celebrity David, Girl Boss Alexis, and Stevie always helps - what’s not to like? A fun, romantic ride about reinventing yourself and finding love and friendship along the way.”

Coming through the melody (oh, I can feel it)  (iphigenias/@oatflatwhite​) “Patrick is a youtube cover artist and David his reluctant subscriber in this adorable AU that features the perfect tag ‘falling in love via Taylor Swift.’”

The Dude Ranch  (alldaydream/@maybewecandreamalittle​) “Cowboy Patrick? Wingman Clint? Say no more, we’re roped in already.”

Everything we need (@sparklesmagiclightlove​, @samwhambam​) “All the makings of a classic western including a (very specific) general store, a literal cowboy!Patrick, and a beautiful piece of original fanart.”

Favored Nations (@blueink3​) “Mutual admiration brings together Patrick Brewer, Grammy winner, and David Rose, Tony winner, in a three-part series of slow-burning, swoon-worthy Broadway-based fics.”  

Guns and Roses (this-will-be-our-year, youmadeeverythingokay) “Look. We all want sexy cowboy fics right now and this one definitely delivers.” 

If you’re looking for an ass to kiss (@grapehyasynth​) “What if Patrick was the Mayor when the Roses arrive in Schitt’s Creek? Enemies to lovers with a few detours along the way, that’s what.” 

Patrick Brewer for Town Council (@resilientrose​) “Patrick runs for Town Council and David helps. Laugh out loud banter with appearances by the usual suspects. This is so funny, you’ll feel like you’re watching an episode of the show.”

Welcome to Cabaret (@vivianblakesunrisebay​) “If you ever wished that David could be more involved in Cabaret, then this AU is for you. Includes a different first meeting, a high tension ‘trapped in  a closet’ scene, and, of course, Patrick’s costume.” 

You and me and this temptation (@leupagus​) “Patrick Brewer might be the sassiest musician ever, but he’ll be David’s saving grace in more ways than one. If David can put up with him for that long.”

Bonus GIFset: Quit it (@noahreids​) “Luke Tillerson is literally the only one telling him to stop, because we are here for Billy’s spontaneous song bursts.”

June 2021 Fic Recs

HAPPY JULY! Sorry this is so late, I got covid and got trapped in isolation without my laptop but here is June’s fic recs!! So much good stuff coming out all the time I’m constantly in awe of the amazing writers in this fandom! These have definitely brought solace whilst I’ve been isolating. 

1. Incorrect by @lisamc-21

I’m assuming everyone has already read this by now but if you haven’t PLEASE do, it’s incredible. I was completely hooked on this for like a solid day and could barely put it down, the characterisation was (as always) exactly right, and the FEELINGS!! Incredible, amazing, mindblowing etc etc.

2. Where Words Fail by @houdini74

Everyone who knows me knows I LOVE a Marcy and Clint fic and this gave me everything I could ever ask for. Solving the miscommunication of MTP, general David supportiveness, and overwhelmed Brewers.

3. cross your heart by @5ambreakdown 

Ahhh this one ended me, ENDED ME, while I stand by Dan Levy’s no-homophobia-in-Schitt’s-Creek policy, life isn’t perfect, and nor are people. This hit me right where it hurt but god it was worth it, and it felt so so real, such a lived in experience. 

4. as though you carry it in your body by @dinnfameron 

PATRICK&ALEXIS SIBLINGS FOR LIFE. This is a pairing that just DO NOT get enough attention or screen time. I love fics about them growing close as in-laws and the ways Patrick just slots into the Rose family in the most perfect way, and I love post-canon stories about the Roses, and I love this fic.

5. ask away by @colourcodedbinders 

Queer Stevie, Stevie/Ruth, and some INCREDIBLE David & Patrick & Stevie vibes, this fic has it all. I loved it so much, Stevie does not get enough attention especially in the fic world and this filled a little gap I didn’t know I had!

6. waiting for lightning by @blackandwhiteandrose 

I don’t know what to say about this one except AHHHH I LOVED IT. I read it like, three times in a day and it gave me butterflies literally every time. I love David and Patrick finding each other sooner, so childhood friends AUs are just the best things ever, and this is just so gorgeous and lovely!!

7. If I Could Know Within My Heart by @MoreHuman 

More Married Without Children series and this one did not disappoint!! Not only did it have a HEAP tonne of queer feelings, it also had some lovely post-canon married David/Patrick which felt incredibly genuine and real, and the characters were so developed and honest!

8. caught in the slightest wind by @ratchet 

I am a simple human. I like storms. I like David and Patrick. I love this fic. Go read it, don’t wait for a storm for atmosphere, but save it and next time it DOES storm, make the most of it. You won’t regret it.

9. Take the Long Way Home by @midnightstreet 

I ADORE Rachel fics. In any form. This was so developed and such an interesting take on Patrick’s feelings about Rachel. It’s really well thought out and beautifully written, and honestly made me see their relationship in a whole new way which is very impressive.

10. Memory Lane (or How to Steal From Your Ex-Almost-In-Laws) by @treepyful​ 

Okay so usually you wouldn’t catch me dead with not only angst but Brewer-angst, but this series feels very important to me and this was a wonderful addition. It made me love Rachel all the more, and was a whole alternative universe in the Schitt’s Creek canon which I really enjoyed!!
