“Stop that,” Isak murmurs, though he tips his head further into Even’s hand. Though he drops his eyes to Even’s lips. Though he tilts his body closer, closer.
“I’m not stopping,” Even says, tipping into Isak as well. Magnetisation. The sea and the moon. Even is reflecting and Isak is colliding with him, working with him, bending with him. Sonja is the sun, big, and bright, and vibrant – but nothing on this. Nothing on them. Nothing on them, together.
“You should be kissed,” Even says, now. He’s so close to Isak’s lips that he feels them against his as he speaks. The weight of them. The warmth of them. “Often, and by someone who knows how.”
He laughs then, pulls back, away from Isak. Watches the way Isak follows.
Magnetisation.
“Stop that,” Isak says, again. He loops his arm over Even’s neck, pulls him in close again, the heat of him under Even’s palms. Under Even’s skin. “Or kiss me properly.”
“You’re bossy,” Even says, smiling.
Then he kisses him properly.

Friday Fic Recs - Week 2
Hey friends, it’s Sarah! I’m still not really in the headspace to do much on the internet right now, so once again @call-this-a-mask and @boxesfullofthoughts are filling in for me like the superstars they are! Thank you for your help, you two, and I absolutely agree with everything you’ve said here about these fics!
To the rest of you, seriously if you haven’t picked these fics up yet what are you doing??? They’re all fantastic!!
you’re the one i wanna grey with - cosetties / @bechnaesun (Even/Isak; 5k; canon + established relationship)
A fic set in the early stages of Isak and Even’s relationship, all about Isak exploring how he feels for Even and if he’s allowed to miss him as much as he does.
Isak’s voice is incredibly well done for the time, showing that his insecurities and hang ups don’t just disappear now he’s in a relationship, as well as showing his progression through learning about himself and his relationships with others.
Even though Even isn’t actually there for most of this fic, he is still very much present in the details written in, and his and Isak’s relationship is painted very clearly.
Isak’s dynamics with the other characters are incredibly realistic and well done too, with the way he acts around each of his friends and how they all respond to him in turn.
Even and Isak’s relationship is wonderfully well balanced, with both of them caring for each other just as much.
Both Isak and Even’s characterisation and how they deal with the situation is also incredibly accurate, with them both feeling very much the same about each other but showing it in their own ways.
It’s so easy to feel how Isak feels, and shows how he’s growing and starting to acknowledge his feelings.
A really well done, feel good fic that captures the start of Isak and Even’s relationship perfectly.
seasons may change (but i love you) - kittpurrson / @towonderland72 (Even/Isak; 3k words; 5+1 Childhood best friends AU)
A childhood best friend’s AU, showing Isak and Even’s relationship through snapshots of their life together.
Explores their dynamic through different ages, and each time their behaviour and Isak’s voice is age appropriate and fitting to them for the time.
Whilst this is a short fic using small snapshots, the small details put in there flesh out their relationship brilliantly, and convey a sense of history effectively.
Well paced, showing the emotional shifts between them and the tension as they start pushing boundaries and exploring their relationship.
Their dynamic seems very true to them, despite this being an AU, both Isak and Even are very in character.
The visuals in this fic are beautiful and very easy to envision, each clearly carefully chosen and written to paint the picture of the scene.
Isak’s feelings - not just about Even, but what he’s learning as he grows up - are also very easy to understand and feel along with him. Whilst it doesn’t go massively in depth, it’s still very clear what he feels.
An incredibly sweet story with wonderful and very realistic progression
Not a Bird, Not a Plane - shakespeareandsunshine / @shakespeare-and-sunshine (Even/Isak; 5k words; superhero AU)
Engaging writing style and good pacing; the story develops well and never seems too rushed despite being only a few thousand words
Amazing characterisation, despite the different circumstances. Isak is a grumpy doctor who’s actually all soft on the inside and Even wants to change the world and finds the most extra way possible to do it
The dialogue is wonderful - from their banter about how Even is totally not a superhero to discussions of more serious subjects, their conversations flow really well and make me smile to read
Isak is so oblivious and it’s wonderful. He’s not an idiot and it shows, but he completely ignores all the signs of Even being a superhero, and it makes so much more sense and seems so much more in character than if he hadn’t (because who starts theorising their crush is a superhero???).
Confess - eiqhties / @eiqhties (Even/Isak; 1k words; first I love you)
Devastatingly in character - dialogue and interactions are absolutely spot on and feel very true to them and their relationship, to the point where it could have happened in-show
Absolutely adorable, fluffy without being overly sappy. They’re full of sass but in love, and it shows (especially considering the subject of the fic lol).
The setting is wonderfully ideal. Isak confesses randomly while brushing teeth??? Even chokes so badly that he needs five minutes to recover????? Legendary.
The writing is fun and the voice feels true to Isak and his headspace
Despite being only 1k, it feels like a part of something much larger, and it’s a delight to read!
magical realism or coffee shop au
well seren you write the best magical realism fics but this is still hard…i feel bad for my beloved coffee shop aus but there’s something so special about magical realism so i pick them
“Mm, no. I don’t think I did hear that? I think you have to repeat it.”
“I’m never saying it again.”
Even drops his mouth open, comically exaggerated. “You’re not saying it?”
“No,” Isak reaches up, pushing Even in the chest, gently. Even staggers back as though it was a gunshot, instead of a push. His limbs flailing everywhere, mouth still wide open in mock horror.
“Isak,” He fake gasps, still stumbling back until his knees hit the mattress and he falls backwards onto the bed, lying horizontally across it. “I can’t believe you would hurt me this way.”
“You’re so dramatic,” Isak says, walking over to the bed and collapsing beside Even. “Does everyone else know how dramatic you are?”
“No,” Even says, reaching over and tangling his fingers up with Isak’s. He turns his head sideways, so that they’re both looking at each other, smiling. “I bet I can make you say it again,” He says, far quieter than before. He’s looking at Isak gently, warm eyes and tiny smile.
Isak tries not to smile, pursing his lips together and shaking his head. “I told you. I’m not saying it.”
“I bet you will. Really soon, in fact.”
“Never,” Isak says, giving up on not smiling.
Even hums, softly, reaching over with his free hand and running it through Isak’s hair. “That’s a shame,” He says. “Because I love you too.”
Confess by eiqhties@eiqhties
To: Even Bech Næsheim From: Isak Valtersen Subject: Pandora’s box Hey Even. I saw your film. It made me cry, it was so beautiful. The shot at the end, with the character just sitting on the train was so beautiful. You should really be proud. You didn’t hurt me, you never really hurt me, Even. The situations around us hurt me, not communicating hurt me. Never you. You shouldn’t be ashamed of that, you should never be ashamed of anything about what we had. Even the end. This would be the seventieth draft email, but after you put SHAME out there, your shame, literally out there, I figured it was time I put myself out there, too. So here you go, the 70 emails I wrote you that I was never going to send. 70 love letters. Some aren’t that nice. Some are very badly typed. All of them are for you. I’m shit at this stuff, Even, you know that, but nobody has ever made me feel quite like you do. I’m hoping that we shouldn’t be ashamed of the end, because it means we get to have a new beginning?

This week's theme is AU’s. Today’s post is a oneshot. If you like this fic, please consider leaving it a comment/kudos!
It Feels Like - - eiqhties / @eiqhties (3k words)
Everything in the room is floating when Sonja gets to Even's house.
Our Ramblings:
Absolutely love the magical realism in the fic, which permeates through it and creates a very unique, compelling atmosphere
Even’s circumstances in this fic are clearly different from canon, since magic isn’t a thing in canon, but they fit so well with his character
Sonja’s headspace in this fic is so, so good; complexity of her character is incredibly well-imagined, without demonizing or exonerating her for her actions
The writing style is really beautiful too, poetic in its starkness
A touching and poignant read that really makes good effective use of its space!
Sarah’s favorite lines:
“That’s good too,” She says. Then, “I’m sorry, Even. Sorry I was so. You know. So wrong,” She tells him, looking at the daisy sitting in the palm of his hand.
He looks at it as well. Then, slowly, carefully, he leans forwards, tucks it behind her right ear.
“It’s okay,” He says. “You weren’t wrong. Just. Different. You’ll get it right soon.”
Kathi’s favorite lines:
She’s known Even a long time. Long enough to read his facial expressions, long enough to know his moods. She was also there the other day, when the bed was floating, and Even was telling her that she never listens anymore. She wonders when she stopped listening.
