Under-appreciated coldflash rec list

Most of these are a bit lesser known or should have more fics/kudos - a few are just here ‘cause I love them! In no particular order...

The Past Still Ties You Down by half_alive - beautiful and deliciously angsty

Wonderland by notenuffcaffeine - ‘undercover in prison’ story - gloriously smutty with some decent plot too

An Exercise in Patience by @sproutwings - *fans self*

Between a minute and a lifetime by @barrylen - angst, smut, all the good things

Cover Up by Lady Divine Coldflash - ok, not lesser-known, I just love it (and the sequel)

Nine Lives by twilight_shades - Len goes to Gotham...

i just wanna have fun and (get rowdy) by @joanthangroff - there are many ships in this wonderful chat fic but the coldflash is sublime and worth waiting for

Misbehave by @wonderingtheblue - gorgeous, subtle fae AU

Not Gonna Write You A Love Song by Anonymous - really thoughtful <3 (read tags)

we’ll make this feel like home by @coldflasher - based on that meme about the straight guy realising he’s into his roommate - this turns into a fantastic series

1-800-KIDNAPD by @bold-sartorial-statement - hilarious, with accidental kissing

Solidarity by asexual-fandom-queen - the coldflash is just background here and this is really a Len character piece but it’s so great. Muslim!Len and interfaith connections <3

Realignment (time & company) by writerdragonfly - not sure if being updated anymore but very much worth a read anyway - time traveller’s wife AU

A giant thank you to @sophiainspace for the awesome rec list submission!

Hopefully these authors will earn some further fanfare from our legion of loyal mutuals \o/

Happy ColdFlash Valentine’s Day! :) <3

Happy Valentines Day, Coldflash fans!

I’m still new to digital art as I’ve always prefered paper and acrylics, so this took me far too long to complete, but I’m pretty happy with it. Maybe I’ll try making something that isn’t chibi next time.

Check out my other works here.

A Coldflash Valentine’s Love-a-thon <3

Valentine's weekend (Feb 14-16th) is upon us and we want to spread some love  to underloved Coldflash works

That’s right, a 3 day event for Reccing! Rec underappreciated fanworks to us all weekend and we'll reblog it here.

By underloved Coldflash work, we are looking for:

A work that prominently features Coldflash (i.e. not works that simply have Coldflash as a background ship)

A fic with less than ~50 kudos/likes OR less than ~10 comments from someone other than the work creator. But these numbers aren’t set in stone it’s just a ballpark - if in doubt just submit anyway A work with 10 comments, 5 of which are replies from the creator(s) is eligible for this event

Art/gifsets/graphics which have passed tumblr by with few notes

It doesn’t have to be Valentines Day themed, as long as it’s Coldflash, we’re happy to share it

Rec your own content if you wish!

How do I rec stuff?

For fic: Create a new post with a link to the fic, or reblog the creator’s post, mention @coldflashweeks and tag the post (or reblogged post) with the official event tag

For art/graphics: We’d prefer if you Reblog the original post and mention @coldflashweeks in the reblog with the event hashtag, but if the art is not on tumblr, then either create a post with a link to the art or submit it to the blog. We’d rather you didn’t repost art.

Still wanna create something for V Day? Of course you can.

If you DO want to create something for the event then we’re accepting Valentine's-themed Coldflash creations (first date, soulmates, romantic stuff, you get the picture).

Mention @coldflashweeks, tag content appropriately, put NSFW stuff behind a cut, etc and we’ll reblog it.  Details on content guidelines in our FAQ. You can send stuff to our Ask box, message us, or create a whole post.  We're accepting Coldflash creations of all mediums: fanfic, fanmixes, and fanart, to name a few.

Official hashtag is #CFVal20

Let's give Coldflash creators a lovely Valentine's Day this year!

An underappreciated fem!Barry comics-Coldflash rec list

A Slow Ballad for Fast People by @fanfictionolivia - a ficlet really well written, feat 50s housewife Fembarry unhappily married to Eobard and having an affair with the mechanic Leonard Snart.

Terrible Life Choices by Finale - a very rare fic with comic coldflash and halsinistro (Hal Jordan/Thaal Sinestro). Fembarry had a baby with reformed Len, Hallie with reformed sinestro, and everything is cute and cracky.

Central City Crazy by @timandstepharebamfs  - Barry is Scarlet Speedster, a Harley quinn - esque anti villain married to abusive Eobard. Len is central city hero, in love with him.

Submitting this on behalf of rosessilver from the Flashtrash (18+) Discord server, as they are tumblr-less

Thank you rosessilver for the recs!

idk if this is the place to send it but the role reversal series "desperate for changing, starving for truth" is one of my favorites and only has a few comments on each fic save for the last one so maybe check it out here? it's by shewhowalksunseen

Thank you for your rec, Nonny!

The Desperate for Changing, Starving for Truth Series by @areyouscarletcold

Summary: Leonard Snart was struck by lightning in his sister’s lab on the night the Particle Accelerator went off - and somehow that’s just the motivation he needs to go straight with the help of the remaining members at S.T.A.R. Labs.

We know Call will be over the moon <3

Valentine’s Weekend may be over but we’re still accepting underloved Coldflash recs! Submit to us, reblog a post and @ us, or make a post and use #CFVal20

[coldflashevents]

the way they seem is something else by actualraptcr is really good but only has two comments.

Thank you Nonny for the Rec!

The Way They Seem by actualraptcr

Summary: They told him Snart had died a hero. A Legend. He’d mourned, and while Barry had never found the courage to admit he’d loved the thief, he’d finally started to try to move on.Then Leonard Snart walked into STAR Labs, alive and fundamentally changed by the Oculus explosion. And he was still unfairly attractive.

We’re accepting underappreciated Coldflash fanwork recs all weekend so be sure to either make a post, mention @coldflashweeks and tag with #CFVal20 or submit something to the blog!

GIve some Coldflash works some love this Valentine’s Weekend <3
