fic recs
Recs within each fandom are alphabetical by author's username, with anonymous or mystery authors at the top. Also, I am forgoing the standard rating system in favor of my own highly subjective labels (gen, UST, pre-slash/OT3/het, not-porn/fade-to-black, barely-porn/mostly-plot, porn, kinky porn). If I ever rec anything with an unhappy ending or character death, there will also be a tissue warning.
