Smut Fic Recs

My holiday season gift to you all is a list of some of my favourite smut fics out there! It truly is the most wonderful time of the year.

As always, authors are tagged if their tumblr username is available in their ao3 profile. If you've been tagged and would rather not be, please let me know and I can delete it.

The Witcher

Lambert's (Not-So) Mysterious Vial of Oil by @on-a-lucky-tide - 11k, Aiden/Lambert, E, no archive warnings apply

Lambert discovers that Aiden has been using spit - fucking spit - along with a laundry list of other disgusting alternatives for sex (tallow, yeah, that was on offer too). He whips up his own lube using a centuries-old recipe and they go to town.

A fantastic balance of feelings and humour, and one of the fics that introduced me to The Witcher fandom. It's an absolute favourite, and I go back to it when I want something familiar and fun.

To The Hilt by @round--robin - 3k, Jaskier/Geralt/Eskel/Lambert, E, no archive warnings apply

“You like my swords.” Geralt said it like the most obvious thing in the world and Jaskier blushed, ducking his head. “On The Path, I thought it was the danger that got you off. But that wasn't it—just the sword.” While he hoped to discuss this, the reality of Geralt discovering it on his own (Jaskier was a fool to think the Witcher didn't notice, Geralt had a sharp mind, even before you added in the heightened senses) made his face heat up. But he nodded all the same. “The steel sword, mostly. The way it sits in your hand makes me want...” He swallowed down his embarrassment. They'd seen each other in their least glamorous moments, Geralt covered in monster goo, Jaskier crying furious tears after a disastrous show, he needn't fear telling him about this, showing his desires.

This fic is so hot and I cannot recommend it enough. Object insertion doesn't get enough love imo.

so breathe it in to feel the love by @tumbleweedtech - 2k, Gascon/Reynard, E, no archive warnings apply

Reynard just needs to relax. Luckily, Gascon can read him like a book and knows just what our favorite General needs. And the Duke of Dogs is exactly the right person to tell Reynard exactly what a very good boy he's been.

Soft dom Gascon is everything I need in life.

Star Wars

Tide me over by porphyr - 9k, Cody/Obi-Wan/Jango, E, creator chose not to use archive warnings

Obi-Wan uses official channels to make a booty call; the booty in question takes a few liberties. Cody did not expect his evening to turn out this way. Sometimes fantasies do come true.

The tension between Cody and Jango is what really kicks the heat up a notch in this. I cannot stress enough just how much I love the tension between those two.

Careful what it is you say by Artifactrix - 11k, Finn/Poe, E, creator chose not to use archive warnings

The day it dawns on him what all the circumspection is about, he could just about scream. They think 'troopers are celibate, he realizes. They think he's never had sex. They think he doesn't – or didn't, until just recently – know what sex is. He can forgive himself for taking so long to work it out, he decides almost immediately, because really? Really?

Smut with a side of stormtrooper culture. This is a longtime favourite of mine.

The Mummy

Be Unwearied, Unceasing, Alive by OzQueen - 5k, Ardeth/Evy/Rick, E, no archive warnings apply

Evelyn felt the flutter of something deep in her belly — something that connected to the adrenaline she'd felt after Ardeth had pulled her to safety, and Rick's hands had closed over hers carefully, firmly; we are alive, we are okay.

I cannot get enough of these three, and this fic has exactly the dynamic I love for them. It's hot, it's playful, it's perfect.

Call of Duty

First Light by @losersimonriley - 6k, Soap/Ghost, E, creator chose not to use archive warnings

Their entire dynamic is about to change. Johnny will either be internally disgusted and won’t show it, but will still fuck him because he said he would and that’s just the kind of honourable man he is…or he will become such a raging feral dog upon learning what was done to Ghost, that all thoughts of sex will vanish and be replaced with murder. He isn’t sure which is worse. or Soap takes it upon himself to be Simon Riley's real first time.

I love love love this fic. I've read it so many times. Mind the tags, since it deals with past torture, but it handles it so well. Also the author's other fics are amazing too.

Perdona Nuestras Ofensas by @tumbleweedtech - 9k, Soap/Ghost, E, no archive warnings apply

“Is this why you’re such a flirt on comms, Sergeant?” Ghost leaned to catch Soap’s eyes. “A little power make your knees weak?” Oh no. He couldn’t look away from Ghost now. His Lieutenant had caught the scent of something he wanted to know and there was nothing on earth that would stop him from finding out. Note: Our boys are not clergy. They're just borrowing the scenery, as it were.

Hnnnnng. Hot hot hot. The sacrilege is so hot. I don't actually have coherent words for this one, just noises. Sorry minutiae.

limerence (i'll be your animal) by @samuelroukin - 40k, Soap/Ghost, E, no archive warnings apply

That’s when Ghost rolls over, and Soap releases his cock instantly — holds his breath and prays to Christ that he’s just shifting in his sleep. “Hurry up, Sergeant,” Ghost says, voice low and much too near. Soap shivers. No use pretending he wasn’t getting off when Ghost clearly knows what he was up to. “Can’t,” he whispers, “‘m not a lefty.”

40k of pining while engaging in the horniest behaviour known to man. I feel bad for Gaz having to put up with them.

Your Move by @frenchkey - 7k, Gaz/Ghost, E, no archive warnings apply

Ghost walks in on a game he isn't expecting. When he's challenged to take part, how can he say no?

Playing gay chicken when you really wanna fuck each other is dangerous. Also I need more sub Ghost in my life.

Hades

Regarding the Strength of Minotaurs by @help-me-writes - 21k, Theseus/Asterius, E, no archive warnings apply

Theseus has grown used to being champion of Elysium, confident and comfortable in the knowledge that his strength is unmatched by any mortal being, living or dead. He forgets that Asterius is not the same creature he was when they fought in the labyrinth.

SIZE KINK SIZE KINK SIZE KINK. Honestly, my favourite part of Theseus/Asterius is the size difference and this fic gets it.

Marvel

Good Boy by triedunture - 13k, Steve/Bucky, E, no archive warnings apply

Bucky is still adjusting to life with the Avengers, and Steve is willing to do whatever it takes to make him feel comfortable. Increasingly, though, what seems to make him comfortable is strangely intimate. Surprise, Steve! You're a gentle dom and Bucky wants to be your pretty pet!

This one is so soft and so feelsy but the smut is just as good as the feels. Bucky healing through kink is everything to me.

Hold Me (Safe and Warm) by @frenchkey - 1k, Clint/Bucky, E, no archive warnings apply

Clint needs to unwind so Bucky gives him something to occupy himself with.

I won't lie I just love Frenchy's works. Their smut is so good.

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves

My prayers are answered by your touch by @frenchkey - 2k, Xenk/Ilmater/Torm, E, no archive warnings apply

Xenk struggles to endure and prays to Ilmater for help. Ilmater answers.

Xenk getting taken apart and put back together again by his gods and it is so hot.

[championofelysium]

Theseus being insecure and feeling like he doesn't deserve Asterius' affection is so crazy... I do sincerely love that at first you'd think Asterius is the one who considers himself to be undeserving, but he's very secure and even confident in himself and his relationships. It's Theseus who is terrified that one day Asterius will abandon him 💔
