hargrieve’s fic recs — august

whoops, this post is a few days late because I lost all sense of space and time and forgot it was already september. life is funny sometimes. but I’ve been doing this fic rec series for ten months now, and I’m not planning on stopping anytime soon! hopefully I’ve recommended something that was fun to read for at least a handful of people :)

all haikyuu fic recs this month. I didn’t read a whole lot, so I really leaned on my friend dani for her recs. most of these seem to be on the heavier side, or are at least more focused on emotional development. if you’re looking for a lighthearted read, take a look at the akagin and the matsuhana!

loving you is easy, once learned

It’s important to learn from your mistakes, but it is better to learn from other people’s mistakes, and it is best to learn from other people’s successes.”

Or how Atsumu, throughout the years, was taught that love is given and received in different ways by observing his highschool teammates and their significant others.

hargrieve’s fic recs – march

thank you @ravenclawboys for a bunch of great recs!

this month I am reading ✨ art fic ✨  — the kind of writing that squeezes the breath from you and makes you bawl with the way it quietly, devastatingly reaches inside and tugs. on the other hand, i’ve also read a lot of fic that is lighthearted and sweet and fun. so from now on I’m going to be sorting these by fandom as well as genre! hope it helps you find something new (and wonderful) to read. as usual, ships are all over the place: i think that every single one of these features a diff pairing lmao

FANDOMS: HAIKYUU!!

beautiful long one-shots that made me cry:

hiraeth by @skiecas

kagehina; rated Gen; 30k words; 1/1

karasuno first-years in their third year, a month before their graduation

lots of talking about the present and future; lots of pining but they don’t realize they’re pining

made me kind of sad and reflective to be honest but that’s the mark of a good fic, right

I wish to live in a world by hatsuna

sakuatsu with komori pov; rated T+; 25k words; 1/1

komori’s perspective of sakuatsu relationship from high school to college/v.league. canon and timeskip compliant. hoshiumi cameo!

komori motoya’s perspective on growing up and watching other people fall in love and loneliness and volleyball as a way of living

when I say this fic made me cry, I mean that it made me lie in bed and SOB for ten minutes. holy shit (maybe I projected too hard) completely worth reading, especially if you love komori motoya as much as I do

venus 金星 planet of love series by fatal

kunimi/kageyama; rated M; varying lengths but 28k total; 3 fics, series complete

timeskip kunikage, fwb but they are kind of in love. past sakusa/kunimi in the second part

actually this is a series and they are all published separately. the first one is fairly short and the next two are longer

in which ao3 user fatal ripped out my heart and didn’t give it back. I keep saying this for every fic but I really, really mean it when I say this writing is breathtaking and spectacular and devastating. if you are in the mood for kunikage Angst with capital A, I cannot recommend this enough

it was 3:30 am and I sobbed through this fic in bed. didn’t think it was possible to cry so hard over a metaphor. if you read this and want to talk about it my DMs are open. PLEASE I am desperate to talk to anybody about it oh my god

gorgeous shorter one-shots:

birdcatcher, starcatcher by daedalust

hirugami/hoshiumi; not rated; 3k words; 1/1

ushijima/sakusa; rated T+; 3k words; 1/1

eight years of snapshots of the yearning in the relationship between sakusa and ushijima

ushijima’s “complete and uncomplicated love”

not a long fic but every single word is there for a purpose. so, so beautiful

lighter fics I enjoyed very much:

koganegawa-centric; rated Gen; 2k words; 1/1

koganegawa tries to improve himself and talks to his teammates :)

literally the cutest thing i want to give koganegawa a hug so bad

Come On Home by @prideandpre-judas​

osayama; rated T+; 10k words; 2/2

other chapter fic & series i’ve recommended before that have been updated:

miserability — tsukkiyama

Unfortunately No (But Actually Yes) — tananoya. they just wrapped this one up and there’s a side one-shot in the series!

my fic (feels weird to boost my own fic whoops)

come on and jump (i dare you) — akagin

I still have no idea if people actually look at these posts! I know I say this every single month but if I can get even one person to read one of these fics, then it feels like a success :) FIC WRITERS DESERVE SO MUCH RECOGNITION

i’m more active on twitter if you ever want to talk about fic

give me a rec (you can even bump your own fic!)
