My Hedgehogs Table Manners

I don’t know what to do with my Hedgehog... She has terrible table manners! I gave her a hot-dog and some ketchup and a few peanut butter crackers she stuck her plodders (I mean her feet) onto the table that was so clean and with a squeak that was discreet she demanded a side of green beans and because I wanted her to consume the meal I prepared for her I fetched her a small dish with a few green beans, I placed next to the crackers and she surveyed her meal so nice and quickly made the scene a disaster she got her hotdog and kicked it off the table, where the ketchup spattered onto the floor. She rammed her head (Don’t ask me why, she’s a grump) Into the crackers with peanut spread and into the green beans they thumped The food was spilling everywhere she huffed and puffed and squeaked and I just shook my head, I didn’t care and I’ll never know why she freaked. But then as I started to clean the mess she was there just eating her green beans For this incident I don’t love her any less, She is still my tiny hedgehog queen.

fic rec! TUA, S1 AU. 7K

Summary: Ben protects his sister from beyond the grave. Klaus is totally on board.

Comments: I might have rec'd this one before, when I sent searching for fics after S1. Ao3 at least tells me I left kudos. But regardless, this is a great S1 retelling focused on Ben. Ben splits his time between Vanya and Klaus, so he sees everything that's going on, but when Leonard comes into the picture Klaus disappears and so all he can really do is watch things get worse. I also love the little world building elements - that sometimes Klaus is so high he can't see Ben, that Vanya watches Allison's movies as she cries eating Five's sandwiches. There's so much brotherly love in this fic. I adore it.

fic rec! pre show 2K fic featuring Luther

Summary: One by one the Academy leaves, and Luther isn't quite sure why Seven doesn't go with them.

Comments: Older fic, but I really like the concept of Vanya staying with Luther as everyone else leaves. This is told from Luther's POV, and I really like how messy his emotions are about this. Gratitude, confusion, anger. And the slow, slow realization of what the drugs are doing, and that, ultimately is his reason for leaving.

fic rec! 46K pre-season 1/season rewrite. Like, is there a term for all the fics that make it so season 1 doesn't happen like it does? pre-fix-it fics?

Summary: How Vanya Hargreeves saves the world by accidentally becoming a superhero. She'd also like to know when her family decided her apartment is a halfway house.

Comments: Really enjoyed this story. Vanya is just out there, doing her best, because man, she wishes she'd gotten help and if there's no one around, well, she'll turn into the one to give help to others. The sibling feels are strong, and not just between the Hargreeves here. Vanya through Klaus adopts/is adopted by a group of homeless kids who walk her home for an exchange of hot cocoa. They're all adorable.
