Fanfic Rec tagging game!
Wasn't quite specifically tagged by @ihni but I was mentioned in the original game post, and it looked fun! I'll tag some peeps down the bottom to keep the loop going but srsly anyone can join in!
(and yes, this is me fishing for recs from y'all)
Last fanfic you read: thirty-five by frogsterz. A NaruSasu fic set when Naruto turns thirty five and thinks I'm Old. It's short, sweet, and very satisfying.
Last fanfic you bookmarked: Two Lifetimes by KinomiAkai. Another NaruSasu fic where Naruto travels back to fix everything but ends up making friends with Sasuke. It's a oneshot, not too long, but it's emotional.
Last fanfic you printed/downloaded: (un)spoken by hiuthyn. A classic Klance fic, and I downloaded it because it's only 3 chapters, and it's a s8 fix it that I could read on the train home. It's also really good so I bookmarked it XD
A fic that made you laugh: How to Catch a Fallen Star by Humanties_Handbag and Invader_Sam. A Sonic the Hedgehog fanfic a la the new movies but it's Shadow getting his new family in Agent Stone. The dialogue makes me giggle.
A fic that made you cry: Savior Complex by Arwriter. Another Dick Grayson centric fic and it didn't quite make me cry, because I was on public transport, but it was a solid punch to the gut.
A fic where you had to take a break and walk away from the screen for a while for some reason (also share the reason): Lemon Boy by @sarah-sandwich and the reason? Because it was so damn good I couldn't stop reading but I had to because work ugh
A fic that made you discover something about yourself (+optional: what that thing was): Pyromania by sinestrated. What that thing was: I'm a Spirk shipper.
Your favorite fic version of a side character of your choice: to grow in adversity by Soulykins. A Jaskier centric fic where he's Renfri's brother. I love the TV version of Jaskier (who doesn't) and wanted something that focuses on him. The writing is also stellar I love it.
A fic with a plot you really like: Home is Where the Heart Is by LittleLadyBugs. A Batfam fic about Dick joining fashionably late. Because I love Nightwing, he's a new blorbo and this is such a good fic.
A fic that you learned something from: Temptation on the Warfront by alizarincrimson. A Drarry fic. THE Drarry fic that made me learn that I like Drarry. Who knew?!
A fic that gave you a new headcanon: Night at the Leville by surveyscorpjean A FFXV polyship fic post the end of the game where Noctis lives and they deal with their Feelings tm for each other. The headcanon is that there was definitely somethings happening in that tent...
A really good sentence you read in a fic lately (plus what fanfic it's from): Not really a sentence, but all the syntax in It's Just a Light Rain (But the Storm's Still Comin') by Westward is just * chefs kiss * so good!! It's Persona 5 if the protagonist didn't join the Phantom Thieves at all. They've not updated the fic in a while but even still it's worth the read for the style alone.
Your favorite written version of your favorite character: Half Alive by @eirianerisdar No doubt about it no notes just perfect Spider characterisation
A really good gen fic: full circle by taizi. More a series than a fic it's a Natsume Yuujinchou fic because I consumed the show over winter and fell in love with Nishimura the little idiot.
A WIP where you are patiently waiting for an update because the fic is just so good: That's got to be Draco Malfoy & The Blade of Kronos by @lilbeanz it's just such a good AU of the sixth year of HP and she's done almost the entire series (which, gobsmacked). I'm eagerly waiting for the next chapter to consume on my lunchbreak...
A fic that inspired you to create something: Half Alive again. It inspired my Our Hearts Beat in the Womb of the World fic. Again, no notes.
Last fanfic you commented on: The Weight of Your World by FeiRaime. A Fantastic Four First Steps fic where Johnny becomes the Silver Surfer, and mainly because their characterisation of the Guardians was so good!
A fic that opened your eyes to a specific pairing: Only the Brave by Solmussa. A Jegulus fic. It's very looooooong but well worth it! It opened my eyes to not only Jegulus but the blorbo that is Regulus Black.
Some good smut (if you read that): Corporate Secrets by KizuKatana. NaruSasu again, an omegaverse fic but it's so well handled. And the sex is fire.
Bonus rec (+ reason!): The Art of Burning by @hella1975 ATLA because the ANGST in this baby * pats Zuko on the head * you can fit so much!!!
Peeps to tag: @be-the-glenn-to-my-maggie @claarrraaaaa @hella1975 @eirianerisdar @vargon56 @alexxuun @lacvuna @dirtytransmasc @oldpotatoe @tuberculosis-chic @ele-sme
