[Vid] Hey Ho by
thuviaptarth
Length: 2:59 minutes
Footage: Marvel Cinematic Universe (The Avengers, Captain America, The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man movies, Agents of SHIELD)
Rating: PG
Relationship(s): Gen
Summary: Sound out the trumpet noise.
Reccer's Notes: Well deserving of the multiple recs I've seen. An excellent look at the darker side of Marvel's heroes.

Take this wine and drink with me (let's delay our misery) by
cicer
Length: 2.580 words
Fandom: Thor
Rating: PG
Relationship(s): Sif/Loki
Summary: Odin has decreed that Loki must marry. But he never said she had to marry a man.
Reccer's Notes: Excellent! I'd love to read many more tales in this verse. :)

Five Times Emma Kisses Killian and One Time She Does Something Else by
jncar
Length: 23.194 words
Fandom: Once Upon a Time
Rating: PG-13
Relationship(s): Emma/Hook
Summary: Emma and Killian share a series of romantic moments in the midst of the struggle to defeat the witch. Season 3B speculation with a bunch of making out.
Reccer's Notes: I haven't been keeping up with OUaT, but I thoroughly enjoyed this fic. (In other words, recent canon knowledge not required and I have no idea how speculative and/or AU it is.)

I Heart Hannibal by
verilyvexed
Fandom: Hannibal
Rating: PG-13 [The artist didn't offer a rating. I'm going with PG-13 for, uh, people being eaten?
Relationship(s): Will/Hannibal
Artist's Notes: Below is a strange comic that I had entirely too much fun making. The initial idea for this was Hannibal meets I Love Lucy: basically, Hannibal as a schmoopy domestic sitcom. If you ever wanted Hannigram cuddling over organ preparation, or hiding bodies as couples therapy, then look no further, dear reader. This is the comic for you. All two of you. Get in here and let me love you.
Reccer's Notes: Just perfect. (Fannish crack, and hilariously so.)

Chasing Dreams by
OfTheFullMoon
Length: 2.446 words
Fandom: Rise of the Guardians
Rating: PG
Relationship(s): Gen
Summary: The first time Jack sees the golden sand in the sky is on the night he first wakes. It's the most beautiful thing he's ever seen, and it makes him feel like he's not quite so alone in a world of darkness where nobody can see him.
Reccer's Notes: Just to give you mental whiplash from the previous rec. This one's just plain sweet. :D

.: Arrow :.

plus ça change by
ash818
Length: 2.552 words
Fandom: Arrow
Rating: PG-13 (Mostly for implied torture.)
Relationship(s): Felicity/Oliver
Summary: On May 2, 2015, Felicity almost dies (again), and Oliver almost dies (they’ve stopped counting), and then he kisses her (that’s a new one). It may be a little weird that only the last thing leaves her knees wobbly.
Reccer's Notes: Excellent - particularly Felicity's second to last statement in the whole thing.

A Hundred and Twelve by
ash818
Length: 1.298 words
Fandom: Arrow
Rating: PG-13
Relationship(s): Felicity/Oliver
Summary: The island didn’t teach Oliver to jump a motorcycle over a flight of stairs. Two wrecked Yamahas and a Ducati taught Ollie that. No one - not his parents, not law enforcement, not even Thea frightened and crying when he put himself in the hospital - could teach him to stop.
Reccer's Notes: Oliver and Felicity are on the wrong side of a police chase. I love this Oliver POV. Additional bit: Epilogue.

Six Speed by
ash818
Length: 848 words
Fandom: Arrow
Rating: PG
Relationship(s): Gen
Summary:

“Thea?”

“Hmm?”

“Who taught you to drive?”

Bleary-eyed, she sits up straight, frowning at Oliver in the pale blue glow given off by a muted infomercial. “What?”

Reccer's Notes: Oliver, contemplating some of the things he missed, and trying to make up for a little of it.

Communication Skills by
Frea_O
Length: 2.904 words
Fandom: Arrow
Rating: PG
Relationship(s): Felicity/Oliver
Summary: Five times Felicity Smoak doesn't babble to communicate (and one time Oliver does). Felicity may babble a lot, but in a pinch, she's got other ways of communicating. Oliver wishes he didn't find them as fascinating as he does.
Reccer's Notes: Lovely Arrow-specific trope inversion. :)

One Night Stands and Vanilla Cupcakes by
redtoes
Length: 15.892 words
Fandom: Arrow
Rating: NC-17
Relationship(s): Felicity/Oliver
Summary: Felicity has a one night stand with a hot stranger. Oliver is unimpressed. Diggle thinks the two of them need to get over this shit already but so long as Felicity bakes him cupcakes he's not getting in the way.
Reccer's Notes: Also chocolate cupcakes, red velvet cupcakes, coffee cupcakes... Every time I try to write this rec, I keep getting distracted re-reading the fic.

What Happens in Vegas... by
redtoes
Length: 48.600 words
Fandom: Arrow
Rating: NC-17
Relationship(s): Felicity/Oliver
Summary: Oliver and Felicity wake up married in Las Vegas. But it's not what you think... It's memory loss and fake relationships and diamond heists and dealing with inquisitive journalists. Smut barely enters into it at all.
Reccer's Notes: They wake up married with a distinct lack of memories since lunch the day before, so now they have to figure out who drugged them, why someone's trying to frame the Arrow, how to deal with the very public consequences of the last 18 hours, and that's not even accounting for the private consequences. It was absolutely fantastic and a thoroughly enjoyable 50,000 words.

Arrow Casino AU by
jaegermighty
Length: 1.719 words
Fandom: Arrow
Rating: PG
Relationship(s): Felicity/Oliver
Summary: Oliver’s not sure exactly what he’d expected from this meeting, but outright hostility probably wasn’t it. Possibly he’s missing something important. Possibly he’s been an asshole without meaning to. It wouldn’t exactly be the first time.
Reccer's Notes: Oliver owns a casino. Felicity has been... well, she needs the money, okay? Just a wee ficlet.

Remove All Doubt by
PuzzledHats
Length: 12.540 words
Fandom: Arrow
Rating: NC-17
Relationship(s): Felicity/Oliver
Summary:

"Really shouldn’t that list have been titled ‘Oliver Queen’s Top 5 Ways To Turn You On?"

When a group of Oliver's former flames decide to spill the illicit details of his private life, Felicity cleans up the mess but not before her babbling inadvertently lays down a challenge.

Reccer's Notes: Oliver doesn't take challenges lightly.

What Would Hildy Johnson Do? by
seren_ccd
Length: 7.721 words
Fandom: Arrow
Rating: PG-13
Relationship(s): Felicity/Oliver
Summary: “Look, you wanted a Girl Friday, you’re going to get a Girl Friday” aka five times Felicity decides to channel Hildy Johnson and tell it like it is. Snark, pop culture references, hugs and pocket universes ensue.
Reccer's Notes: Silly and sweet.

Really is a Hero by
inmyriadbits
Length: 2.406 words
Fandom: Arrow
Rating: NC-17
Relationship(s): Felicity/Oliver
Summary: When Oliver had gasped "Bedroom," against her mouth, she'd replied, without thinking, "It's so cute that you think I can walk right now."
Reccer's Notes: Sweet and hot. <3

Heart of a Girl by
calliope1975
Length: 14.136 words
Fandom: Arrow
Rating: PG
Relationship(s): Felicity/Oliver
Summary: Oliver and Felicity travel to Gotham for an routine business meeting. Unfortunately, nothing in Gotham is routine.
Reccer's Notes: There's lots of little things I liked about this one, like Felicity and Bruce exchanging tech talk. A lot of good moments.

Strategy by
LJC
Length: 9.139 words
Fandom: Arrow
Rating: PG-13
Relationship(s): Felicity/Oliver
Summary: The first time it happened, Oliver thought it was a fluke.
Reccer's Notes: ALL the kissing tropes. YES, PLEASE.

Safe Space by
moirariordan (jaegermighty)
Length: 2.140 words
Fandom: Arrow
Rating: PG
Relationship(s): Felicity/Oliver
Summary: "The key to a good night's sleep," Felicity says proudly. "I take a bad dream and make it better." quick post ep for 2x10.
Reccer's Notes: Oliver dreams of Felicity.

.: Teen Wolf :.

From the Waters and the Wild by
otter
Length: 5.062 words
Fandom: Teen Wolf
Rating: PG
Relationship(s): Stiles/Derek
Summary: The child is dirty and huge-eyed and streaked with mysterious blood. It's wearing something filthy that could be generously described as a dress but looks more like a sheet, and it's all so Dickensian, it's almost over the top. It's obviously not even remotely human. Of course Stiles wants to take it home.
Reccer's Notes: A changeling fic with a happy ending. Loved Derek's POV here.

Everything is Horrible and Great by
LolaFeist
Length: 2.926 words
Fandom: Teen Wolf
Rating: NC-17
Relationship(s): Scott/Stiles
Summary: "You wouldn't know a vulva if it fell on your face," Stiles says, grumpy. (The one where Scott and Stiles have sleepovers and get riled up and fingerbang. Like you do.)
Reccer's Notes: Slightly pre-series PWP(!) that feels wildly in character.

Night Watch by
bleep0bleep
Length: 1.743 words
Fandom: Teen Wolf
Rating: PG-13
Relationship(s): Stiles/Derek
Summary: Stiles finds out via camera footage that an unlikely person has been watching over him.
Reccer's Notes: Very nice Sheriff POV. [Contains 3B Spoilers]

Graduation Day by
wolfling
Length: 2.014 words
Fandom: Teen Wolf
Rating: PG
Relationship(s): Gen
Summary:

Stiles just stood there for a moment, looking out at the crowd. Stilinski could tell when he spotted them because he grinned widely and Stilinski knew that his own face was wearing the same expression.

One of the teachers sitting on the stage behind Stiles coughed pointedly and Stiles ducked his head but didn't stop smiling.

"Sorry," he said. "I just needed to take a moment to relish the fact that I'm actually standing here. We actually made it to graduation, guys!"

Reccer's Notes: Another excellent Sheriff POV. Loved the details. [Contains 3B Spoilers]

Life Guards by
tsukinofaerii
Length: 3.799 words
Fandom: Teen Wolf
Rating: PG-13
Relationship(s): Allison/Derek/Stiles
Summary: Finding out you're going to be a maybe-honorary grandparent isn't always easy. It's all in how the news was broken. (With bonus Scott.)
Reccer's Notes: Part 3 of the Learning to Swim series (the one with that had the mermaids in the first fic). Shorter than the other 2, but still entertaining. Melissa's was definitely my favorite.

We Fall Into One Another by
jettiebettie
Length: 2.459 words
Fandom: Teen Wolf
Rating: NC-17
Relationship(s): Stiles/Derek
Summary:

Life affirmation is a funny thing, to be perfectly honest.

It’s like one minute you’re running harder than you ever thought you could in order to outrun bullets, and the next you have boner at the realization that you did it. That you’re alive and unshot and free to fight (flight) for survival another day.

And then you have your hand down another guy’s pants. It happens. It happens to them.

Reccer's Notes: Mostly PWP. Bonus points for the lack of kid gloves. (Not that I don't think kid gloves and patience are a valid and awesome scenario, but I have particular wants for such a thing these days and it's not usually that Derek's careful with Stiles. Stiles is frequently an asshole, so it's nice when they can be that together, ya know?)

Another Man's Blessing by
dsudis
Length: 4.156 words
Fandom: Teen Wolf
Rating: PG-13
Relationship(s): Stiles/Derek
Summary: Derek gets cursed.
Reccer's Notes: One man's curse... Yeah, I'll never be over the "Derek Hale has a nice day" thing. Feels like it ends a bit too soon, but what's here is very nice. Additional tags: "Derek/Safety OTP". ♥

Aftershocked by
pyes
Length: 21.517 words
Fandom: Teen Wolf
Rating: NC-17
Relationship(s): Stiles/Derek
Summary:

The first time that Derek kisses Stiles, they're in the Jeep-which is sideways-while they're trapped in an overpass collapse.

It's the second time when things really get scary.

Reccer's Notes: Very good with a really interesting Derek POV. The thought processes, the sex scene, Stiles being both forward and awkward, Derek being wrapped up in his own head - it all feels very real and beautifully imperfect. [Some 3B Spoilers]
