Feb 22: Slippyâs Birthday Rec-travaganza
Okay, Iâve been mulling it over after this morningâs post, and yes, this is what I want for my birthday. Â Yinz have one week. Â (Although, you know, I am not the boss of you or your calendar, feel free to start sooner or run past the 22nd, Iâve heard Birthday Week is a thing although I usually confine myself to a day.)
My birthday request from the fandom this year is recommendations for fandom things you love, or things you have made yourself that you are proud of.
So! Â On the 22nd, give or take, please post or send me some recs for Hannibal-related* fic or art or fanworks of your choice. Â Any kind, any rating, any ship, whatever. Â Old, new, anything. Â No rules per se, but a couple of requests:
1) It would be awesome if you would err on the side of including newer or less-talked-about folks that I might not already be familiar with. Â
2) If you do your own fic, art, whatever, please include at least one rec for a thing of your own. Â (Not required if youâre shy, but I really would like it.)
I canât 100% promise to read/look at everything immediately depending how much there is, how busy I am, how much my government is turning into a trashfire causing my to spend my days protesting in the streets, and how active my brainweasels are. Â But I will try to make my way through everything sooner or later, and I will definitely do a round-up masterlist post linking to everything Iâm sent.**
Thatâs it. Â Themâs the rules. Â Bring me some birthday joy to share with the fandom, buttercups. Â @ me into your posts or tag them #recsforslippy so I can find them, okay?
*The birthday girl would like Hannibal stuff for this so it can be a gift for the fandom as well as a personal gift. Â But LBR, the authoress is also rolling around in a pile of YOI fic, will have Bucky Barnes feelings forever, and is just generally interested in whatever is well-written even if itâs not a fandom she goes to, so feel free to also send her other recs for things you like or things you have written/drawn, too. Â Shower me with distractions, darlings, the world is terrible.
**The birthday girl does reserve the right to leave things out of the masterlist or link but skip personally reading things, if they happen to hit her personal trigger/nope buttons. Â But she will try to use that right very sparingly. Â If youâre wondering whether something might be over her line, feel free to check in with her beforehand.
