Verstave Fic Recs May 2026

It's the last weekend of May?! How?!

I've read some lovely fic this month! There's a wee selection of Verstave fics that I really enjoyed under the cut. For next month, I'm taking part in (... /co-organising) the @e33readingchallenge, which I'm hoping is going to mean that I'll really crack on through catching up with my backlog of fics I want to read. Fingers crossed!

May Fic Recs

(Two posts in one day who am I.)

I am starting a series on AO3 where I share my Verstave oneshots—FIRST ONE IS UP! And with posting them here (and Twitter) I’ll try and add doodles for each LMAO

It’s very fluffy and also Gustave teases Verso.

WIP Wednesday!! ✍️🍓

Thank you @skollwolf for the tag, much like last time I still have 80 things in the oven and none of them are done (help) BUT… I would love to share part of Chapter 1 from my AU “Press Play”

This fic is not published and will be my 2026 magnum opus, hopefully my most precious work overall. Some context for those joining us-- Gustave is a florist, he works at a small shop with his sister. Verso owns/works at a record store with Lune, his restless (tired of his shit) coworker. Obviously it's modern AU, I reaaally wanted to dabble a little into different occupations that still made a little sense. Gustave does have both arms! But I did want to homage the prosthetic with a full tattoo sleeve (designed by his apprentices) with gears and also flowers. Our boy still NERDY as hell, as expected. I hope you enjoy and thank you for the tag again, Skoll!! <3 ~~~ Lumière, September 2021 Slide. Click, tick tick, press. Gustave exhaled softly before gathering a fistful of curls into a lazy top knot while everything else hugged his shoulders and face. A gentle synth began to pour and buzz from his headphones causing the rubber of his heel to click in time with the tile beneath him. Groceries, right. Dishes, also on his list. It was, as helpfully advertised by his darling sister: organized chaos with a touch a life in every corner. She loved him and he knew that by her tone and enveloping hugs alone. However, the: "Wow Gustave! Your house looks really.. lived in." comments felt more like a jab at this point than anything else, as if Emma was searching for something kind to hide the honesty. He'd roll his eyes, change the topic and they'd laugh over a bowl of vanilla ice cream. This is how their occasional weekend off was spent. Gustave grabbed his keys, surveying the state of his little apartment once more before opening the door to catch the sun already sitting along the horizon. It painted a wild picture of pinks and oranges across the sky, clouds pouring in from the west suggesting he'd be due for rain later in the evening. Early Autumn— when the trees had barely held onto their leaves but the temperature was comfortable enough not to notice. He sighed softly, taking a moment to listen to the birds or cars in the far distance and just breathe before slipping the headset onto his head properly and taking off. Pastries first, flowers afterwards. Gustave glanced at his watch while walking and realized in a sudden gasp the moment of serenity he had allowed himself a minute ago had distracted him from a carefully curated schedule. He rounded the corner quickly whilst not looking and immediately swerved out of the way to avoid a collision. Gustave couldn't think, couldn't remember what words tumbled past his lips besides a frantic apology in passing. His hands grazed over soft material- flannel? --something easy on his fingers. He carefully steadied the both of them before apologizing again with a smile and rushing down the rest of the block. The individual who had been equally startled collected themselves and took a second to adjust the sunglasses sitting at the crown of his head. He watched Gustave disappear around another corner in the distance. A gentle snort tinged with amusement found him, followed by a sigh not too long after. He shook his head and continued on his way in the opposite direction. ~~~ I want to share so much more but AHHH more to come soon! And for those wanting to join, I must pick my fellow WIP wizards-- @arialerendeair @theartsypumpkin and @toulouse-liberi <3
