hello i’m writing a yoonmin fanfic and i’ve been looking for new perspectives so if you could read and share it and your thoughts who knows.. that’d be great :))

ongoing yoonmin, mature, tags for sensible subjects on ao3

it’s a psychological horror story

https://archiveofourown.org/works/77537171/chapters/203057256

thank u sooooo much i’m sorry if this is inconvenient

Hey i'm already going to share it but i'm not sure when i'm going to be able to read it since i'm studying for finals (and am running way behind schedule). Thank you for sharing with me though <3<3<3

[kaesficrecarchive]

So I wanted to ask if you maybe know this taekook fic I've been trying to find. It's been so long ago like around 3-4 years ago when I found it and I cannot for the love of god find it again.. so anyway it was about tae and kook being best friends and kook was engaged (with some girl) and tea was a painter/artist that drew jk's face many times but never showed jk his drawings because then he would knew about his feelings. Anyway it ends when tae's manager takes his jk' drawings to show at his latest gallery exhibition; and jk sees them and runs to tae so can conffess. (Tae was leaving the country at the airport or sth like that)

Hey sorry i've been trying to find it but no luck so far :/

[kaesficrecarchive]

hey! i'm trying to look for a taekook fic where taehyung babysits jungkook when he's younger, they spend time apart as they grow up, meet much later in the future when jungkook's older and fall in love. thanks for your help!!

Hey! I'm sorry I can't find the fic you're looking for, hopefully someone in the tag sees this & can help u :(

[kaesficrecarchive]

Hi, I wanted to ask for some taekook fic recs after reading an undished work I really enjoyed.

I really liked “breakers by bluegreytk” and wanted to read more Taekook fics with that kind of angsty enemies to lovers vibe.

Also, the jungkook in that fic does not come from a great family life/childhood and is not used to having friends, I’d like to read more fics with an angsty jungkook like that too if possible.

Hi! I think i found a few that fit the bill:

ELLIPSISM by haruday (11/11 | 72,456 | NR)

If you slap a jester's hat on the monster in the closet it ceases to be scary but to itself, it will still be a monster. If Jeongguk opens his palms he closes them instantly because he doesn't like the ugliness he sees. The neon light leaks through his pores and he ceases to be bright. Pain changes people. It certaintly changes Jeon Jeongguk.

(warnings: suicidal ideation + attempt!)

Canvas Of Ice, Brushes Of Blades by Aesdeath (14/14 | 100,602 | M)

Jungkook never smiles on the ice.  Son of South Korea's national champion, the child is considered a prodigy of figure skating, icy eyes and cold demeanor, pure perfection and no emotion.  Jungkook never smiles on the ice, until he meets Taehyung, who enters his life like a ray of sunshine, melting his crystallized heart. Nevertheless, when Jungkook's wounded soul finally heals, Taehyung's heart begins to break. Like every beauty, ice skating is ephemeral, Taehyung.

Unwanted Butterflies by lookingatherhurts (18/18 | 101,423 | E)

Jungkook and Taehyung hate each other. Except, of course, when they're having sex.

Colossal Cock by Taekooks_Doll (8/8 | 103,694 | Eà

Jungkook has rules when it comes to relationships. He doesn’t fall in love, he doesn’t like waking up next to the person he had a one night stand with, he doesn't like seeing the same face twice. But there’s one exception. Kim Taehyung, who gets on his nerves like no one has ever had. But even though he hates his guts, he can’t deny the attraction and sensation he feels between his legs. And so Jungkook finds himself unwillingly reshaping the way he has been navigating his sex life when he decides to become sex partners with none other than the person he resents: Kim Taehyung himself. He enjoys the pleasure, except when it comes too close to his heart. Because his heart is a closed book and he refuses to open it for anyone. OR Story of a frustrated microbiology student Jeon Jungkook, who hates Kim Taehyung but doesn’t hate his big fat cock at all.

Boys Don’t Cry by cherikoya (24/24 170,610 | m)

There are a lot of things that Jungkook isn’t supposed to do. He isn’t supposed to smoke as much as he does, he isn’t supposed to be this much of a family disappointment, he isn’t supposed to be such an asshole and he isn’t supposed to think about killing himself so often. But what he’s not supposed to do the most is to feel so alive just because of someone like Kim Taehyung.

(warnings: suicidal ideation)

i don't want you to go (but i want you so) by kthsv (16/16 | 206,167 | T)

sometimes the universe makes mistakes

[kaesficrecarchive]

Hey! Can u help me find this fic?

I remember he was ABO, omega Jimin, he ran away from his pack where he was mistreated. I remember he just ran off into the forest until Namjoon and Yoongi found him?

They take him to meet the pack leader, who is JK. I remember there's a test involving food. I think the strong point of the plot, as far as I remember, is that Jimin has powers where he can heal people when he sings. Then he meets Tae, who was Jin's brother (?), and he has a curse that prevents him from sleeping. So Jimin sings to him and Tae gets better.

It's been a few months since I read it and I can't find it 💔

Hey! Was this an ot7 fic or does the fic revolve around a specific ship? Is it a long fic? Do you remember or can you guess the rating? This will make looking for the fic a bit easier :)

[kaesficrecarchive]

Probably not the one you're looking for but fics with a similar premise:

Severed by pokeydots86  (39/39 | 58,430 | E)

Park Jimin, once a cherished omega, has his life shattered when his parents are killed in an ambush on their return from a diplomatic mission. Stripped of his rank and protection, he becomes the target of his abusive mate, Kyungsang. Desperate and alone, Jimin flees his pack, becoming a rogue omega. After months on the run, he encounters a pack that offers him refuge and a chance to escape his past. But with his trust shattered, can Jimin believe in their promise, or will he be betrayed once again?

The Courage To Live by infinitetwinkles (13/13 | 128,823 | E)

“Come on,” the alpha says. He tilts his head towards the water as Jimin gapes at him with fear in his eyes. “Get in.” Tonight Jimin listens. Whether because of the humid heat clouding the air or the insomnia induced delirium or something else entirely, Jimin's feet take tiny steps until he stands at the edge of the bath. The tip of his toes get dangerously close to dipping in, just needing to take one last step. The alpha’s eyes watch his every move, scanning down his body with rapt attention. “Go on,” the alpha says, voice dripping with deep richness. Jimin—for reasons he fails to understand—listens. His body carries him, slowly sauntering down the steps and into the hot water without thinking it over any longer. Something about it feels helpless and uncontrollable, making him itchy inside. He pushes it down. “Good little omega.” The alpha’s words make sparks tingle in his veins and acid climb up his throat, the conflicting combination of sensations confusing. He hates how something inside of him almost… likes it. (After being rescued from an oppressive pack with strict rules and outdated traditions, Jimin starts his life life anew in the Jeon pack.)

PSA: For fan works, reblog and like from OP

Tumblr is rolling out a new reblog/notes system that completely disregards creators. In their new system, they're taking a twitter-style approach where reblogs will have their own notes that DO NOT contribute to the original post's notes.

Because of this, creators will no longer be able to see an accurate display of likes/reblogs/etc. This is completely altering the way feedback and responses to works are going to be received on this website.

If you come across a fan work that you enjoy, please take the extra step to go to OPs original post, and leave your comment/like/reblog there. Or go one step further and send an ask to OP directly to tell them what you liked!

I really hope Tumblr staff reverses course and reverts to the original reblog system for the sake of the large base of creators who use this site to share their works, but until then, please be considerate and make sure the creators here see/feel the love.

[kaesficrecarchive]

do you have any recs similar to this fic??

https://archiveofourown.org/works/44318032

Hey! I'm assuming you meant fics similar in vibes (manipulation/dubious morality) and not the faerie part. Here are a few i found:

!! READ THE TAGS BEFORE READING THE FIC !!

Pretty doll by Uncontrollabledesires (2/? | 2,671 | E)

In a world where Omegas are born to be perfect fuck dolls for their alphas

Lock Your Windows, Baby by orphan_account (1/1 | 2,818 | E)

pretty omega jungkook gets fucked and knotted by wolf taehyung while his mom sleeps in the next room

Mindless by twinkyjjk (1/1 | 3,221 | E)

Poor Alpha Taehyung doesn't know what he's gotten himself into when he goes into an omega dominated town, going home with one of the most popular, sadistic, omegas.

Kudzu by augustdarling (1/1 | 4,334 | E)

If Taehyung had to describe Jungkook, he would have said he was sweet and tragic, and that he was like a little brother to him. If Jungkook had to describe Taehyung, he would have said only one word: Mine.

The Devil's Temptation (Obsession) by orphan_account (1/1 | 6,702 | E)

sweet, naive church boy jungkook becomes the sick obsession of psychopathic demon taehyung and ends being fucked to tears by him.

Sly Fox, Dumb Bunny by THEEPIEDPIPER (1/1 | 7,801 | E)

Bunny Jungkook gets lured into fox Taehyung's den for some apple strudel. But the sweet taste isn't the only thing that has him moaning.

Fine Print by elisbethx (elisabeta) (2/2 | 12,224 | E)

Desperate to save his late mother's restaurant, Jungkook makes a deal with the devil. Payment was supposed to be in cash. Now it’s in flesh and the price keeps rising.

Not tae/jk:

(jm/yg)

Not a good man by babygirlminni (1/1 | 4,623 | E)

Jimin is a model looking for new ideas, and Yoongi is a good photographer, but not a good man.

Nefarious by PinkScribble (1/1 | 5,450 | E)

Jimin gets pulled over by corrupt policeman, Yoongi, who isn't above abusing his authority to get what he wants.

(jm/jk)

screws, loose by ctrltan (1/1 | 7,158 | E)

jimin really doesn't want whatever's going on between him and jungkook but then, it hurts so good and jungkook fills the void in his heart(his hole) that he so needs to be full.

take a bite by bottompjm (1/1 | 8,595 | E)

“jeongguk-ah,” jimin pouts. “why are you kissing so rough?”  “sorry, angel,” jeongguk quickly apologizes, but only because of the look of apprehension jimin gives. jimin finds no tangible guilt within jeongguk’s darkening expression even when his hyung bends forward to peck his lips short and sweet in effort to sell its sincerity. “you just taste so good.” 

In Sickness and In Health by Sunnyjinx (1/1 | 9,181 | E)

Jimin has to make it to an important meeting. Unfortunately for him, his Alpha's also in pre-rut, and he's having a hard time letting Jimin leave.

[kaesficrecarchive]

I will update this periodically! Feel free to send me fic rec requests, but please be aware I only fulfill them occasionally.

Please note:

There will be repeat fics across the lists.

I rec a lot of Explicit rated fics.

PSA: AO3 Bots Are Getting Worse (And Here's What You Need To Know)

Alright so if you're active on AO3, you've probably heard about the bot problem. It's been going on for years but it's gotten way worse lately, so here's a breakdown of what's happening and how to protect yourself.

What Are AO3 Bots?

Basically spam accounts that leave comments on fics. They're automated and they've been plaguing the site since like 2021, but they keep getting more sophisticated.

Types of Bots You Might See:

Praise Bots - These leave super generic compliments that could apply to literally any fic. Stuff like "This is pure genius, I'm in awe of your world-building" or "This deserves all recognition." The dead giveaway is when someone praises your "heartwarming" fic when everyone literally died and the earth shattered around them lmao.

Hateful/Cruel Bots - These are the really fucked up ones. They scrape REAL AO3 usernames and attach them to horrible, cruel comments. So innocent people get their names attached to hateful shit they never said. If you see a mean comment, check if the username is clickable - if it's not linked to an actual profile, it's a bot.

Kudos Bots - Some authors have woken up to like 30-60 fake kudos dumped on their fics all at once, with no corresponding increase in hit counts. This completely destroys the metric system especially in smaller fandoms.

AI Accusation Bots - These accuse authors of using ChatGPT or other AI tools, sometimes on fics that are literally older than the AI programs they're being accused of using. Some link to "AI detection tools" which are likely just trying to get you to feed more fics into AI training databases.

Misinformation Bots - A newer type that showed up in May 2025 claiming AO3 was removing works to "conserve server space" and telling authors to delete their own work or risk being banned. Complete bullshit - AO3 has never done this and never will.

Mary Sue Bots - Accuse your OCs of being Mary Sues, even when your fic only has canon characters and no self-inserts at all.

Art Commission Scam Bots - Leave praise then offer to make comic/art commissions of your fic. They get you off-site to Discord or Instagram, take your payment, then either send AI-generated garbage or ghost you completely.

How Do They Work?

The bots comment as unregistered guests and scrape real AO3 usernames to attach to their comments. The username shows up but isn't clickable and has no actual profile associated with it (unless you search for that name directly, which makes it look legit at first).

The newer ones are getting smarter too - they scrape your fic's tags and use them to make the generic praise seem more personalized. So if you tagged "angst" they'll specifically mention emotions and tension.

How To Spot Them:

Username isn't clickable/has no profile

Generic praise that could apply to any fic

Comments that make zero sense for what actually happened in your story

Multiple comments hitting your fics really fast (like 7 comments timestamped over 9 hours)

Sudden spike in kudos with no matching increase in hits

Anyone trying to get you off-site for commissions or services

The Emotional Impact:

This shit genuinely hurts authors. Some don't realize they're bots at first and think the hate comments or AI accusations are real criticism of their writing. There's also concerns from neurodivergent and ESL authors who worry their real comments will be mistaken for bots because their writing style might seem stilted.

And if your username gets stolen? You might have to track down authors and explain that hateful comment wasn't actually you.

What You Can Do:

As an author:

Delete bot comments as soon as you spot them

If it gets bad, lock your comments to registered users only (Settings → Privacy → "Only show your work to registered users")

Report the comments if you can

As a reader/commenter:

Don't panic if your username got stolen - reach out to the author and explain it wasn't you

Keep leaving real comments! Authors need to know there are real people who love their work

Maybe make your comments a bit more specific/personal so authors know you're real

Everyone:

Spread awareness so people know what to look for

Don't feed fics into "AI detection tools" that bots link to

Why Are They Doing This?

Honestly? Probably to keep AI brands in the "fandom news" cycle and create controversy. Some are straight-up scams. Either way, they suck.

Stay safe out there and keep supporting your favorite authors with real comments. We need that genuine engagement now more than ever. 💜

[curiouspupsicle]

I'd also add, resist the AI bubble that companies are forcing on us. Don't use generative AI to make cute cat pictures. Actually click on a website written by humans, instead of relying on the AI summary at the top. Turn off AI features on apps you use. It's bigger than AO3. Tech companies are trying to convince us that we need shitty AI to do things it's not actually capable of doing. The AO3 scams are one part of an entire scammy infrastructure.

[kedreeva]

I know that it sucks, but you can mitigate this to some degree by switching your fics to "registered users only." Yes it will cut your audience to some degree, but it will also cut down bots- because registration isn't instant, and you can report registered accounts so AO3 can take care of it.

[max x charles]

never strangers at all by borninsideatornado (1/1 | 7,005 | NR:M)

It's just because Max had to go and bring it up. He knows it's not coming from the stupid video, his shoddy grasp on English as a kid who barely went to school. It's the memory of it all, of the times he and Max have collided over and over throughout their lives. What if Max wasn't there, keeping his world on its axis, and— "You are acting fucking weird again," Max informs him. or: it’s the 12th anniversary of the inchident. charles still can’t tell max he loves him.

i'm your biggest fan, i'll follow you until you love me by himmywimmy (1/1 | 10,000 | T)

5 times Charles realises he is surrounded by Max’s fans, and the 1 time he becomes one.

Cheating at Bingo and Other Christmas traditions by WanderingBlindly (1/1 | 12,417 | G)

"You know, there’s a very nice, very handsome young man in my neighborhood –” She starts back up, flagging down their waiter for another glass of wine. “Absolutely not,” He cuts her off with a dismissive wave of the hand. “Next topic.” “So you’re too good for him, is that it?” She sounds defensive, but her tone still has a mocking edge to it – emphasized by the quirk of her brows. Hardly holding back a groan, Charles tries to think of a way out of this. She’s like a cat, batting at him until he gives up, rolls over, and plays dead. “That’s not – I’m just busy, and it’s –” Or: Hallmark style fluff featuring an irritated Charles, a well-meaning Max, and the grandma that just wants them to kiss

your future had a voice (and he spoke like me) by saltshaken (1/1 | 18,287 | E)

Rapid fire thoughts in French pour into his head, each more hysterical sounding than the last. He recognizes “merde”, “putain”, and “pensée” and that’s it. Unhelpful. “Charles,” he murmurs, slightly apologetic, “French.” Charles’ eyes get even bigger, his eyebrows shooting up to his hairline. He makes a noise that if Max were a slightly less merciful person he would call a squeak. Watching him make the absolutely unhinged connection in real time is fascinating. Then carefully, in tentative English, You are hearing my thoughts? Miserable, Max nods. Then shrugs. Fuck. “Max,” Charles practically hisses, his grip on Max’s hand going tighter. The pinprick of his nails feels like the only thing connecting Max to the earth. “What the fuck?” * Or, the year Max turns thirty, he spends about a month mid-season being able to read minds via physical touch. Charles is there too.

(we'd left our love in our) summer skin by lecllerc (2/2 | 25,897 | E)

Max had met Charles three weeks before he turned eight years old. It seems everything to do with Charles is surrounded by the summer. (or: charles and max, ages 8, 12, 15, 18 and 21)

drive on, dreamer (you can't leave her) by champagne_for_breakfast (4/4 | 28,253 | M)

“If you were stuck in a timeloop, and you knew you had to stop something from happening, what would you do?” “What 10-questions-to-ask-your-teammate-to-get-to-know-them site did you get that one from?” Lewis laughs, as he moves to pull the balaclava over his head. They have 5 minutes until they have to be ready in the car and admittedly, this moment might not be the best time to ask this kind of question. “No, I mean it,” Charles insists, lifting his helmet from the stand, but holding it awkwardly in his hands, maintaining eye contact. “If you were stuck, what would you do?” Lewis places his hand on his shoulder lightly, squeezing once. “We can talk about this after the race, yes?” There won’t be an after the race, Charles thinks bitterly, but he nods his head anyway. “Yeah,” he agrees, “after the race, sure.” -- or: max crashes, charles deals with it more or less well, and the universe decides to meddle by having charles relive the same day over and over again

edge into the bite by orichalc (5/6 | 29,621 | E)

Thing is Charles' current stuff is all shaky iPhone angles or sub-optimal static framing and blown out or ridiculous LED lighting. Hot regardless because it’s Charles, who has his absurd doe-eyed twunk thing going on, but not perfect. It had ticked the little irritable impulse in Max’s brain that makes him want to correct things. Nothing could ever go wrong with a little filming porn between friends with benefits with a chronic competitive streak who haven't defined anything at all and are definitely using it as a weird little sex game. Of course.

my lover stands on golden sands by justagaybean (7/7 | 36,581 | E)

It’s Charles’s first season looking for a spouse, and for the past year, his brother has been pestering him to marry a suitable bachelor. But not a single one has dared to dance with him at any ball. Not since Max Verstappen left for his military service in the Netherlands. Or: Max’s friends have been threatening any bachelor who wants to court Charles.

baby, i'm the one to beat by bagoldfish (6/6 | 71,345 | M)

maxverstappen1 and landonorris [Image Description: A selfie of Max with Lando Norris on his private plane, both are grinning wide at the camera.] Liked by georgerussell and 1,002,533 others maxverstappen1 P1 and P2 View all 4,002 comments charles_leclerc @landonorris you’re sitting in my seat 9 hours ago Or; Charles likes Max a bit too much for just a friend (with benefits), and deals with it (very badly). Told through phone calls, texts and social media.

The Warmth of Winter by Usedtobetam (14/14 | 118,125 | E)

"You'll handle this Ferrari delegation as skillfully as you handled their armies." Jos's voice holds absolute certainty. "Though perhaps with fewer casualties this time." Max never wanted Ferrari's perfect Guide - their ceremonial sacrifice to seal a fragile peace. Charles never expected to find warmth in the cold mountain fortress where he's meant to demonstrate Ferrari's subjugation. But as winter winds howl around Milton Keynes's walls, the distance between them begins to crumble. "You're treating your Guide like he's some kind of-" "My Guide?" Max spins to face him. "That's exactly what Ferrari wants - for us to think of him as mine, to let our guard down. I'll handle him my own way." OR: A Sentinel/Guide Fantasy AU with slow burn, arranged marriage and learning to trust each other

New archive just dropped

Back in the day, there were a lot of different fanfic archives. And then AO3 came along, and everyone moved there. And there's a lot to be said for having a central multifandom archive! I love AO3! But there's also something to be said for communities having their own space.

The OTW has always said they their code is open source and they want people to use it to make their own archives, but it is ... not very user-friendly, shall we say. But now there are several people who have gotten their own instance of the OTW-A code up and running for their own archives.

And now there is another! There is now a femslash-focused archive called Sunset! It was just created and is still very tiny, but if you are into femslash, either writing it or reading it, you might find it interesting. It is run by Agnes the Alien.

Sunset is a website established in 2025 dedicated to hosting femslash (F/F) fanworks. It holds pro-freedom of fiction, queer and trans inclusive, anti-racist and generally compassionate ideals. We're here to have fun and love women. Sunset is run by one person, Agnes the Alien, who dreamed this up in zher bedroom. Please be nice to zher! ... I'd also like to shout out Squidgeworld, Superlove, Ad Astra, and Comic Fanfiction Authors Archive.

For Paul’s Birthday: Some of my favorite Pauls in fic

I shouldn’t be overthinking this list, but it’s mine, and it’s done in the spirit of McCartney, so I guess it’s inevitable. So: this is a handful of stories that stayed with me because of a Paul-specific image or vibe. Totally subjective. I kept it to one story per writer (brutally difficult in places!), I wanted a reasonable spread over Paul eras and writing styles & I slightly favored “less well known” stories…to honor the Beatles’ love of B-sides?!

Finally, I avoided deep angst/sadness for now. They say it’s his birthday, and such. (I love angsty and sad stories, and I did go back and forth on this one, but...)

There are so many sparkling Paul’s stories. To no one’s surprise. Maybe there will be other lists? There could be a million.

What a mind, what a man, this is still that body: Paul McCartney.

———

Birney (bookofapril): 1967. Paul loves himself.

The Storytellers (whiteisthewarmestcolor): Very early days. Paul and John discuss how they’re going to share their story with the world once they’re famous.

Thinking of Linking (@beatlessideblog): INYD-verse extra. A confident but also very nervous Paul is determined to impress John at the Woolton Fete. I love stories about baby Elvis Paul engineering “the meeting,” and this is one of the very best!

My Open Arms Ache (Try to Fall For Me) (@thegirlwiththeaxe). Young Paul is touch-starved, and John is there for him. Some of the loveliest descriptions of them sleeping together.

Fur (@ohjohnnysblog). Also early days. The first time John sees Paul’s leg fur. Sweet cuddling ensues!

Monkberry Moon Delight (goodbody). Slightly later early days. After playing a late show, John is nursing at Paul’s breast. They discover that this is what they both need. I love the dreamy nighttime mood of the story, and how surprisingly well it fits them. Just Us.

Lifting Latches/Writing Postcards (thinkpink20). A classic for a reason! John and Paul realize their feelings for each other. It starts with John stealing Paul’s shirt…

Macabre (@dovetailjoints). I always summarize this as “Lennon & McCartney go too far.” Mesmerizing serial killer moment that, once more, just fits them perfectly.

Sock hop, soda pop (@scurator). John is developing a taste for Stu. Paul shows him what he’s missing. This one has several unforgettable lines/ images; for me it’s this one: “Paul rolls his hips in a way he thinks is probably illegal in the Deep South, and bites his lip when John makes a sound like a gasp.” 

The Bass Lesson (@aquarianshift). Hamburg. Paul teaches Stu how to play the bass, or tries to. To his horror, they are attracted to each other. Resentful, hot sex is the result.

How You Were Diverted (candle_beck). At the height of fame, it’s like it’s always been: Paul is taking care of John’s volatile emotions. The sex is part of it. George POV on a different, rough version of Lennon/McCartney.

Plant A Seed (@eveepe). It’s short, it’s sweet, it’s my desert island smut. And so much more. John fucks Paul in his slutty sailor boy outfit in Miami. Incredibly slow and intimate, and of course it ends in music.

still mates (@pauls1967moustache). Peter Asher and Paul. The descriptions of Paul/Jane and Paul/John are so good, and yet, they’re background: the focus is on Peter Asher and his confusing feelings for the hot mess that is 1968 Paul. I can’t word it well, but to me, this is a story about manliness, and *men*; about heroism in a sense. I loved the glow of hope in the end.   

Silly Girl (@bluewater9). Paul through the years, through the eyes of Martha. The ending…!

Be Careful of the Thorns (@skylikeaflame): NYC, the 70’s. John and Paul pay a visit to David Bowie and Mick Jagger. Seeing Paul through John’s eyes is such a treat!

Lucky You (@crumblingcookies): NYC’s, the 70’s. Paul answers an ad in a gay paper. Someone is looking for a Paul McCartney lookalike…guess who that is. And did Paul ever let him down?

oh darling, pardon me (can you help me remember) (inherownwrite). Mid 80’s: John and Paul are together. Paul is nervous about the release of their new album, and John calms him down by combing his legs.

but still they lead me back (@revollver): Paul looks back on the night John asked him “do you like me?” The summary quotes from Giovanni’s Room, and that is the vibe.

Someone Else Can Worry About Me…(@idontwanttospoiltheparty): Paul taking care of others, and being taken care of by others, through the years. I love the symmetrical structure of the story, and how real Paul & his relationships feel throughout. It’s lovely to see him open up, and for his courage to be rewarded with love and comfort. kissing the blarney (@zilabee): Paul as good luck charm.

AU’s:

bright are the stars, dark is the sky (Chapters 8 and 9 of the incredible “Smutlets” collection) (@unchaineddaisychain): Liverpool, 1960’s. John is developing a crush on his bandmate's father (a.k.a. middle-aged Paul). What can I say, it feels right, and the sex, spiced by guilt and how wrong it feels, is to die for.

eclipsed by the moon (@dailyhowl): John and Paul are elite students working to develop technology to ensure humanity’s survival on a moon base. Paul is his lovely, stubborn, overachieving Self in this story, and I love the route by which he and John get their happy ending.

vide noir (@backbenttulips): John disappears after taking a mysterious new drug. Paul follows him down the rabbit hole.

I’ll Pretend That I’m Kissing the Lips I Am Missing (yaggerdangs_jumpsuit). Praise Smaul in all eternity!!! (Unofficial John Lennon quote)

Double Fantasy (@javelinbk): This Paul (a.k.a. the best customer of John’s flower shop) is incredibly charming, and his and John's growing friendship and love are the loveliest thing to see. I think of this AU every time I see a Venus Fly Trap. Read and find out why. (This is part of a series that also contains Paul’s POV of these events.)

A Definitive Next Time (@toovirgins): Famous actor John Lennon (How I Won the War) visits Liverpool to meet the fan who wrote him that flirty letter—a certain Paul McCartney, who plays in a very good band. I love Paul’s confidence and experience in this story. He knows exactly what (and who!) he wants.

inspired by @piastrination last week so for wip wednesday - here are some wip fics i have been LOVING!

san sebastiano by @notforpenance: this is one chapter away from not being a wip. it's so fucked up and perfect and corrupt and violent. the art. the horror. the dead dove of it all. if you're looking for anything but fluff -- mafia!max and art student!(/naive lamb/innocent victim/major sufferer) charles this has it ALL.

burnout by @laura1633: boxer max and model charles... a classic laura work and it's so fun and angsty and i cannot help but drool over the thought of boxer max. one side of daddy issues to complete it all.

one life for the hunter by @le-stappen: i have not been into too many omegaverse works lately but THIS ONE. it's so interesting watching max be a) catastrophically down bad for charles and b) not understand the way the world works. also they fuck sloppy. so good.

vena cava by @chubbydino: ever willingly put yourself through hell and suffering and pain and agony and torment without the promise of anything happy ever? well do i have a fic for you. in classic cazio fashion, this is full of angst and hurt and beautiful devastation.

the suspension of disbelief by @drivingstuff: SUCH a good take on the classic "charles discovers ao3" trope. slow burn they're hooking up charles is confused what could it all possibly mean. its HOT.

eyes on me (just keep watching) by @sharlcookie: f1 driver alpha max and camboy omega charles. they couldnt possibly be bonded, right? what could go wrong. also arthur catches strays like nobody's business.

still your boy by @cosmicscuderia: i have been privy to some of the behind the scenes for this but. charlos x carlando messy love triangle that follows the 2024 season. you cant make some of this stuff up its not even fiction its FACT. the chief angst author amy has cooked up the most incredible unreliable narrator lando. i am not a lando fan and yet this fic is DELICIOUS.

blue echoes by redhelmets: i am not one for social media fics but my GOD has this captivated me. i am so invested in an album that doesnt exist and the author has managed to capture SO many emotions for songs that arent even real. exes lestappen (my beloved) and its just CHEFS KISS. got me in a chokehold.

and obvi my own MWAH.
