[icosahedonist]

Do you have any sid/geno recs or stuff maybe you want to write? I'm feeling really unwell at the moment and am also sad about Sidney :(

Anon, I got recs aplenty, you have no idea. But as I don’t know your fic preferences, and given the situation, I’m going to stick to things that are fluffy.

And as for writing, you’re always welcome to send me a prompt! I do all right with a little direction ;)

Anna & Carter Carter's getting married in the morning. And Anna's brother just found out he didn't get a bachelor's party. What's a brother-in-law to do? From the outside in - a ridiculous romp wherein there are baseballs, strip clubs, poker games, fireworks, handcuffs, and at the end of it all, Peter Benton.

three dates by cicak (@cicaklah)

Benton & Carter Carter’s not sure exactly when he first learned about the patented Peter Benton Dating Algorithm, but it must have been early on, because he internalised it like it was any other scrap of information he’d gleaned and hoarded like a crazy person, like his GPA (3.8), his birthday (September 9th) or his blood type (B positive).

For November 12: Paul sick, Paul hurt, Paul crying. A ridiculously incomplete list of fic

(Bonus: some Paul-centered feel-good fics)

...Ordered roughly according to severity of pain:

Sick to His Stomach by @econhomework. November 12, 1963, in three glorious chapters

I Feel Fine by @theoldmixer. Another tribute to November 12, 1963. And there is more!

Man, I had a dreadful flight  by @theoldmixer. Paul gets motion sick on a flight to the US. John is there for him.

Krankenstand by @savageandwise. Paul gets sick in Hamburg.

Long Way Home by @theoldmixer. 1967. Paul and John drive to Liverpool for Christmas, but Paul gets ill on the way.

Backwards, upside down and inside out by dalula. Hamburg. Paul gets sick, and it doesn't put John off. At all. 

Above Us Only Sky by candle_beck. Early days. “John will pretend not to know him tomorrow, but he’ll take care of him tonight.”

Next to the Pub at the Corner by TheGirlWithABrokenSmile. Touring days, 1964, Amsterdam. Paul gets in a fight, John takes care of him.

Bound and Determined by @aquarianshift. Paul likes to be tied up…and he cries in the end.

How does it feel to be by manhattanvalleys. Paul asks Robert to be rough with him during sex, and doesn’t enjoy it. Tears and tenderness ensue.

Any Road by @teacups-andtime. Paul is in a bad place in 1968. George can help.

Julian’s Song by @pauls1967moustache. Paul in 1968. He just wants to be normal, but something is wrong with him. 

Under Dove-Grey Skies by @therealsaintscully. Old Man Paul finds a way back to John, and relives his loss. 

AU’s

At Night by orphan_account. Paul survives a childhood of abuse and trauma because he finds music—and John. Series.

Tomorrow Never Knows by @yeoman-lawyer. Paul and John meet during the zombie apocalypse.

Can I Take My Friend to Bed by manhattanvalleys. Paul fucks his bandmates in sequence, because that’s what it takes to keep him satisfied. I don’t know you manhattanvalleys, but you introduced me to his furry thighs. Please receive my eternal thanks.

And when I go to town I wanna see all three by @dovand. It’s 2024 and the Beatles are giving a concert.

Songs From Another Lifetime (A Play in Phone Calls) by @lilypadd23. Paul grieves Linda, but he and John find each other again, and how. Absolutely beautiful.

An Orgasm of Sound by @pauls1967moustache. Every day is a good day to celebrate Paul at his peak, and November 12 is NOT an exception! The composition of A Day in the Life. add tag: piano sex

Feel free to add other fics that honor this classic trope!

[m1ssunderstanding]

Do you have any McLennon fic recs?

Don't know if this anon will even see this because I'm so slow but yes I do have some recs! As a general rule, the thing that's going to make or break a fic for me is the characterization. Does the author *get* John and Paul? And all of these stories score excellently in that category. I hate summaries I don't feel like I'll do any of these justice, so I'll just color code them.

Anything by @zilabee is top tier but I just reread Ways to Love You

@adriennefrombrooklyn 's This Boy Will Always Feel the Same

@thehuxler 's You Never Give Me Your Money

@crepesuzette2023 's Serenade in Paul

Orphan Account's I Want to Tell You

I actually haven't read @notgrungybitchin 's One of the Beautiful People yet but it sounds SO good

@thegirlwiththeaxe 's first chapter of Wild and Florescent (come home to my heart)

@revollver 's first three of Minor Variations

@pauls1967moustache 's Baby it's all Relative

@scurator 's Good Boy is not mclennon but should be read anyway

@crumblingcookies 's It Was the Best of Times it was the Worst of Times

@inspiteallthedanger 's India Actually

Man I do not know how Crepe makes this look so easy, I am definitely leaving out some of my favorites here, but we'll go with this list.

Standing Invitation by smilebackwards

Erik has two standing invitations in his life. One is to the maximum security wing of Rikers Island prison. The other is to Sunday tea with Charles Xavier.

For What Could Have Been by swordsandsadness

His anger grew until it burned like a roaring flame. Why couldn’t Charles just stay out of the way for once? Why did he insist on engaging him in this meaningless dance of warring ideals every time Erik did what he must to protect their race but do nothing as their own people were rounded up and butchered? The fact that Charles thought he had the moral high ground here was maddening. There was a nagging worry in the back of his mind, though. Putting the president and his men to sleep wasn’t Charles’s usual style. It reeked of wrongness and desperation. Why wasn’t Charles freezing them in place and making himself known by putting his body in front of the line of fire to plead with him like he did back at the White House? That was Charles’s go to move, so where was he?

soulmates in every universe. by mapofyourstars (WIP)

Destined to be together in every universe, Charles and Erik find their paths always intertwined by fate. Detailing all the ways they could meet, this collection of one-shots explores various soulmate tropes as they relate to Charles and Erik. In either canon or alternative universes, each chapter will be a new trope, some familiar with a different take on them and others not so frequently seen.

Heart and Soul series by FuryRed (a series with 7 amazing works)

It’s as true as the words written on the wall in the bathroom at the university that Erik attends. Erik sees them one day- accompanied by a crude drawing of Erik and Charles glaring at each other- and recognises the truth of the sentence, and smiles. He hates Charles. Probably…

[phanfictioncatalogue]

hey guys do you have anything that revolves around either Phil’s or Dan’s family but in a happy cute way? Preferably long pls🩷🩷

Best options will be found in Meeting the Family (2009 edition) imo, but we also have two Kath and Nigel (2) masterlists, two fics including the Lester family (2) Masterlists, a fics including Martyn Masterlist, fics including Martyn and Cornelia masterlist, fics including Kath masterlist, introducing each other to friends/family masterlist, fics including Adrian masterlist, four including the family masterlists (2) (3) (4), and two fics including the Howell family (2)

Starwars Au Master Post Part 1

Part 2

Timetravel:

Ahsoka and the force ghost of Obi-wan are sent back in time. Obi-wan is de-aged due to the force energy of the Force Temple from the future and the Sith Temple Obi-wan is in, in the past. Now Obi-wan is 5. Adult Ahsoka and teen Ahsoka are having the weirdest time. Cody adopts baby Obi-wan.

The Outline

Obi-wan gets de-aged

Cody calls Anakin

Bedtime

Of Tots and Tea

Bioweapon!Obi-wan:

Obi-wan is a Bioweapon created by a rogue scientist with the aid of old republic sith blueprints. The jedi find and adopt him a year after his creation. Jinn lives. Anakin doesn't go dark. Order 66 doesn't happen. (Codywan)

Original AU

Updated AU

Obi-wan is technically a clone

More au ideas

Even More

Obi-wan is named and adopted

Moar stuff

Obi-wan makes a new friend

Dark Disciple Arc

Phoenix!Obi-wan:

Jango Fett kills Obi-wan on accident. Then discovers he's a phoenix. Parenthood is thrust upon him when the guilt (and baby obi imprinting on him) demands it. He decides to revive the True Mandalorians.

AU Outline

AKA Kamino Jedi AU:

Instead of hiring Jango to make a clone army (he still get cloned he just doesnt know about it). the sith start earlier with a completely different plan. The plan in this au is to raise force sensitives alongside the clones in order to make sure they are an unstoppable cohesive army. They didn't plan for the kids to escape into the galaxy. (Mainly Codywan, but also Queerplatonic Ghost Company/Obi-wan)

The Outline

LOTR AU

Hobbit Obi-wan and Dwarf Cody scandalize their respective people by deciding to hang out with the Jedi and help crazy old Wizard Yoda the Grey defeat an evil wizard and a disembodied eye that represents true evil. (Codywan)

Outline

Soft No66 Au

Soft and mildly silly No Order 66 Au. But Obi-wan still goes to Tatooine. Cody follows after him, not about to be left alone to deal with the Republics nonsense. They end up toppling the Hutt Empire out of boredom. (Codywan)

Outline

Universe Merge AU:

Cannon universe goes the same. But once all of the disaster trio (Obi-wan, Anakin, Ahsoka) die, their memories get transplanted into the heads of an alternative universe. What I want most out of this AU is Obi-wan dismissing all of the memories as nothing more than a vision, but Qui-gon believes its more than that.

Outline

Raised together AU:

This snippet is from an AU where the timelines in shambles. Dooku is a sith at the time of Melida/Daan. Galidraan has already sorta happened. Palpatine is already working on a version of the clone project. He's having force users trained beside the clones. (sorta like my Kamino Jedi au but different) (Codywan? idk i havent decided yet. maybe CodyQuinObi)

"op you forgot-" a lot of these are just recent clips i've mentioned in the past since i was asked to give time-stamps, but please add more in notes! i know most folks know these but in case anyone doesn't :3 (honorary mention both mukbangs & every baking video)
