Snowflake Challenge Days 3-4
Day 3 - Rec things
Arrow
Hideaways by moirariordan - Explicit - Oliver/Felicity - Superb characterization, and I particularly like the O/F dynamic. Look look look:
"You keep - ow! - ace bandages inside your jacket?" Felicity is mind-boggled by this. "Like - inside?"
"Yes," Oliver says calmly, like this is no big deal at all, like it's totally normal for somebody to sew medical supplies into custom-made Italian businesswear, like everybody does it and Felicity is the one who's weird for questioning it.
Furlough by moirariordan - G - Oliver & Digg & Felicity, with hints of O/F - A low-key holiday where everyone's tired and weighed down, but they get away for a bit and make cookies. And damnit, that's not even a good enough description, because moirariordan has a killer ear for dialogue and character dynamics, and I am terribly jealous of the writing in this fic.
Sleepy Hollow
One Fine Day by nestorius - Explicit - Ichabod/Abbie - "In which Ichabod is flustered and Abbie is not." - Subdued, fantastic writing, a very matter-of-fact Abbie, and a sex scene that is both imperfect and extremely hot. My favorite kind!
Sleepy Hollow/Elementary
YES YOU READ THAT RIGHT. I haven't even started this yet, and I already know that it's going to be perfect and that you should all read it!
The Hellhound of the Rockefellers by flourish - Teen - It's 30K friendshippy crossover casefic with hints of Ichabod/Abbie. So excited!
Teen Wolf
but my gravity's centered by magneticwave - Teen - Victoria/Chris - This was my gift in the TWHolidays exchange, and in lieu of the summary, I need to give you part of the author's notes: "My headcanon has been and always will be that Victoria Argent was forged in the fires of the New York ballet scene in the late 80s and came to hunting having already conquered the scariest profession in the human world and found it lacking." ALSO. There's cis-woman!Chris. OH MY GOD IT'S SO GOOD. Magneticwave writes the way I want to write.
Art art art
Pacific Rim cunnilingus art by unfbadger - NSFW - This art pretty much sums up the way I like my het dynamics to work. I still haven't seen Pacific Rim, tho.
Merlin face art by mingusto - SFW - *salivates* Their style is so so gorgeous.
Day 4 - Interact with someone new
For this challenge, I am going to count the fact that I went and left comments for moirariordan, who wrote the lovely Arrow fics above and has also written for quite a few other fandoms (Teen Wolf and American Idol, for starters - zie wrote that one fem!Derek car sex thing I LOVED). They seem to like a lot of my favorite things: ladies and kink and AUs galore. Here's their AO3.
