I read a little bit in a lot of different fandoms this month! Mostly I was reading published works in September, but I still managed to sneak in some fanfic! :D
[Check, Please!: Bitty/Jack]Title: take the world out for a ride Author: sparklyslug Pairing(s): Bitty/Jack Rating: NC-17 Word Count: 7,185 Content/Warnings: established relationship, baker!bitty, secret relationship Summary: The pressure of acting a bit more or a bit less happy in a Providence coffee shop (roughly the most liberal place on God’s green Earth) doesn’t really measure up to the pressure of being in a NHL locker room, or on NHL ice (roughly the least liberal place on God’s green Earth). It’s just. It’s just, for himself, Bitty had hoped that it was a performance he was done giving. Just to be able to act happy when he’s happy, and sad when he’s sad. That shouldn’t be so much to ask. Really lovely fic that takes place a few years down the line with Jack and Bitty living together as "roommates" still keeping their relationship a secret because of Jack's hockey career. There was a quiet sort of angst about the keeping secrets, but even more powerful was the love they both had for one another, and their determination to make things work. I loved Bitty and his bakery, and the ending was really great.
[The Hobbit: Bilbo/Thorin]Title: The Hospitality of Hobbits Author: diemarysues | diemarysues Pairing: Bilbo/Thorin Rating: NC-17 Word Count: 2,865 Content/Warnings: bottom!bilbo Summary: An important visitor deserves only the best of everything. My version of the "Bilbo seduces Thorin the first night they meet" trope. Smoking hot fic with Bilbo offering Thorin a little extra hospitality...Delicious, delicious porn.
[Inception: Arthur/Eames]Title: Golden Ticket Author: earlgreytea68 Pairing(s): Arthur/Eames Rating: R Word Count: 11,216 Content/Notes: AU: Non-Dreamshare, AU: Fusion, Willy Wonka Fusion Summary: Arthur's nephew Charlie finds a golden ticket and wins a tour of the Eames Chocolate Factory. Yes, it's a story you already know, but this version has a lot more making out in edible gardens. Super charming Willy Wonka fusion with Eames perfectly cast as Willy Wonka. Loved Arthur as the doting uncle and the connection between Eames and Arthur was lovely.
[Merlin: Arthur/Merlin]Title: Obedience Author: bookshop Pairing: Arthur/Merlin Rating: NC-17 Word Count: 1,250 Content/Warnings: mild dub-con Summary: idk, unredeemable smut? In which there is no consent because it's Merlin--like Arthur's going to ask him how he feels about anything, please. Super hot blow job fic. Loved Arthur's voice in this one.
[Raven Cycle: Adam/Ronan]Title: Preserving Minutes Author: geoblock Pairing: Adam/Ronan Rating: NC-17 Word Count: 3,834 Content/Warnings: established relationship, bottom!ronan, recreational durg use, mind altering substance, stoned!sex Summary: So Ronan (accidentally on purpose) dreams some devil's lettuce, and he and Adam get high. Obviously, sappy, drug-fueled sex ensues... Lovely sexy fic with a wonderfully characterized Ronan, a really great dynamic between Ronan and Adam, and some super hot stoned sex! :)
[X-Men: Charles/Erik]Title: X Marks the Spot Author: thehoyden | thehoyden Pairings: Charles/Erik, brief mentions of Charles/OMC Rating: NC-17 Word Count: 20,195 Content/Notes AU: Fusion, Indiana Jones Fusion, bottom!charles, rimming, first time, shared bed Summary: The year is 1962, and Charles Xavier is a professor of archaeology who knows how his students feel, whether he wants to or not. He spends his spare time researching a mythical artifact, but he knows better than anyone that X never, ever marks the spot. Sort of an Indiana Jones-type fusion that was immensely enjoyable. I loved the way the canon people and relationships fit really well into this 'verse, and the connection and build-up was really lovely. Hot sex, and a happy ending made this a wonderful afternoon read. :D
