[also can i just say st tang is the best ship name i’ve ever come up with like truly it doesn’t get better than this]

It’s Only (feat. Zyra) - Odesza // charlie/harper

This is the first song on my catradora playlist so unfortunately all i can come up with right now is a catradora!st tang au but honestly it FITS okay like WHAT trope is better than childhood best friends to estranged rivals with a long and complicated history to lovers? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. so in this case i’m thinking charlie as catra - fits the niche of “very complex and morally gray characters with abandonment issues and a lot of pent-up resentment thanks to years of childhood trauma” - and harper as adora - fits the niche of “has internalized that the Cause is Bigger than Yourself to a frankly unhealthy level”. i guess this makes kyle/rogelio/lonnie the dumbass boys which is SO FUCKING FUNNY TO ME [eli/ash/victor? i enjoy the concept of ash as a giant lizard], and maybe Ollie is Glimmer?? anyway harper leaves charlie to fight for the Princesses and charlie spends seasons of repressing her feelings and channeling her hurt into hurting harper back and then has the redemption arc of the century in the final season and what more can i say really

send me a 🔀 and a pairing, and i’ll shuffle my playlist and make an au based on the first song that comes up!

Friday Fic Recs - Week 5

Hey friends, it’s Sarah! Yes yes i know it’s not Friday anymore anywhere in the world but like time is a construct and nothing is real so what does it REALLY matter

Anyway, i’m here with a handful of fics I love with all my heart! I hope you enjoy them as much as I did - and if you do, be sure to show them some kudos/comments love! <3

snow and dirty rain - grinsekaetzchen / @hotchocolatenthusiast (Even/Isak; 23k words; book club AU)

First of all i just have such a soft spot for the premise, where instead of kosegruppa Vilde decides to host a book club and that’s where Even and Isak meet

Really spot on characterization of Isak and Even, with a lot of attention paid to Isak’s headspace and the complexity of their interactions

I like that the plot has a similar structure to canon but still feels very much its own thing thanks to the richness that the texts they read in the book club adds to the fic

Speaking of which that’s one of my favorite things of this fic, how well-integrated all the literary references are! They’re very present and important to the text and the boys’ relationship, permeating throughout the fic, but not in a heavy-handed way, it just feels like a natural part of the narrative, plus you don’t have to have read them to understand their significance

Also i like that a lot of characterization is drawn out of the characters’ relationships to these texts; for example Even and Isak have important relationships with Richard Siken’s work, but they’re quite different and what those relationships are tells us a lot about these characters

Builds to a really sweet and heartfelt payoff of an ending; will probably leave your insides feeling all soft and warm and gross

in the rain, give you sunshine - cynical_optimist / @boxesfullofthoughts (Yousef/Sana; 6k words; missing moment/fix it)

The premise of this fic is that Sana helps Yousef and Even reconcile, and it’s done in a way that feels so emotional and real

Sana’s headspace is stunningly well drawn, capturing all her complexities from the strength of her character to her vulnerabilities

i love the relationship between Sana and Elias here, it feels so true to them while providing us with a more emotional side of their relationship that we saw maybe only briefly in canon

And the relationship between Sana and Yousef is so nice too! I love how easy-going their dynamic is and the quickness of their banter

The reconciliation between Yousef and Even is really, really well done. I especially like that this moment in the fic, their conversation, is a thing that happens solely between them; no one else is going to know what they talked about, and that’s okay, that’s the point

Keep in mind this was written just a few episodes into S4 so a lot of it is no longer canon compliant, but overall it’s a really touching look into what it might have looked like if the story had taken a different direction with regards to Even repairing his relationship with Balloon Squad

Come and paint the world with me tonight - LostInAdmiration / @call-this-a-mask (Even/Isak; 11k words; Isak crashes a wedding/fake dating)

Isak is dared by boy squad to crash a random wedding and in the process meets Even; Even helps establish his cover at the wedding by pretending to be his boyfriend

This is such a sweet and adorable read, if you’re anything like me you’ll probably be smiling the whole time you’re reading it

Extremely well paced; even though the boys’ relationship develops over the course of just a few hours, it feels entirely natural and not rushed at all, and the payoff the story develops to is just so well-earned

Isak’s characterization is so well done; i love that his backstory is used to explain his reactions to the wedding he crashes, and his development is really well done despite again only happening over the span of a few hours

Even and balloon squad are also really well characterized in this fic!! Even’s quirky charm especially, and even though balloon squad appears somewhat briefly everyone still manages to feel like their own characters, which is super impressive, plus their friendships with each other is just such a delight to read
