Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. spread the self-love ❤
Ahah to be honest, I don't have so many to choose from, but these are the five I would rec:
1. Ochi Chernye - RoChu, modern AU featuring lots of blood, gore, and naturally, romance. Heavily inspired by NBC's Hannibal, and going back to read it now I funnily enough can't stomach reading some of the bloody scenes. But, I really like the romantic tension I built between Ivan and Yao - it's something I can't quite replicate anymore! Definitely read if you enjoy a slow-burn. This fic was the first serious work I ever posted, and it still holds a special place in my heart.
2. The Black Lily of Shanghai - RoChu, angsty modern AU where Yao is a violinist, and Ivan is a haunted composer. Read if you want something tragic but in a romantic, gothic kind of way. It also features 2p!Russia and Nyo!China!! I really loved writing for this fic and has some of the best prose I think I've ever written.
3. Rules and Narrow Margins - RoChu & USUK, 1950s Highschool AU. I recommend if you enjoy something that immerses you in a specific time period - I definitely really enjoyed researching for this fic and recreating the details of that era in the US. It also has the fluffiest RoChu romance I've ever written :')
4. Cannot Forget - RoChu, canonverse fic featuring snippets of the Sino-Soviet relationship. I honestly don't know how I managed to write this in a week!! It was for RoChu Week 2017 and I was very determined to write a chapter for every prompt. I basically poured my love for Sino-Soviet history into this one <3
5. In Other Words - RusAme, "canonverse" fic taking place 40 years into the future. Ivan and Alfred embark on a mission to Jupiter's moon, Callisto, while trying to navigate their messy personal feelings about each other. This fic only has 1 chapter up ; - ; and I'm very slow writing it because so much research has to go into it, but I'm very excited about it. If you like RusAme for the space gays angle, this is a fic of mine I'd recommend!
Thank you for the ask, anon <3
