Some Multi-Fandom Fic Recs

Sep 30, 2021 07:33

As usual, I bounced around reading in all sorts of fandoms over the past few months, and here are a handful of favorites! We've got some of my fav fics from the recently concluded
harrydracobang, several fics from
writcraft because I read and commented on 40 of their fics I'd not yet read for their birthday a few weeks back, and then a bunch of other random fics! I've decided to attempt to reinstate my ~TBR backlog reading challenge~ in which I shoot to read at least one Drarry and one non-HP fic a week from my "Marked for Later" list on AO3. The Drarry fics might get paused as I'll likely sub in newer postings from
hd_fan_fair as that starts posting soon, as well as all the fics I'll be reading/proofing for
hd_erised, but my TBR list is getting out of control so it's time to start hacking away at it. :D

Title: Dirty Talk
Author:
writcraft
Pairing(s): Harry/Draco
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: 3,011
Content/Warnings: dirty talk, blow jobs, first times, hung!Harry Potter
Summary: Harry is rapidly becoming obsessed with Draco's mouth.
Unff, this was super hot, as one would expect from this author!! The dirty talk was on point, and I loved adorably flustered Harry and the sweet beginnings of something more between them.

Title: Sweeten to Taste

Pairing(s): Draco/Harry, background Ron/Hermione
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: ~51,000
Content/Warnings: first time, bottom!harry, poc!harry,
harrydracobang 2021
Summary: It starts with Draco's buckwheat crepes with honeyed oranges. Or maybe it starts with his porridge with toasted walnuts and homemade apple butter. Or perhaps it starts with the cinnamon buns Draco made from scratch with mascarpone icing. Harry just knows he's hungry for more.
Oh man, I had too much fun reading this fic!! I really enjoyed the characterizations and various relationships here, and the way the author approached the ideas of forgiveness and redemption were so thoughtful and nuanced and interesting. The trio friendship gave me a lot of happy feels, and I just generally really loved the characters here and the build of the relationship between Harry and Draco. The smut was super hot, and the ending was truly lovely. Plus, some seriously drool-worthy descriptions of food!

Summary: Every day, Draco Malfoy tries. With every fiber of his being he tries. But he doesn’t much think about what he’s trying for.
--
In his final term of Healer training, Draco is unfortunate enough to find himself on a plane, the only means of traveling to a small, magical town in rural Alaska. Years of hard work have culminated in an opportunity to work with an experimental wandmaker to study the intersection of Healing and wand theory. When Draco arrives, he doesn't find the wandmaker, but does find his apprentice, who happens to have ridiculously messy hair, a lightning bolt scar, and a definitely-not-charming smile. But Draco isn’t going to let Harry Potter get in the way of him becoming a successful medical researcher, even if Potter is stubborn, hot-tempered, reckless, surprisingly gentle, has bizarre taste in music, and likes to leave his shirts unbuttoned. How hard could the next few months be?

A fic about challenging assumptions, discovering self-worth, the silver lining in failing to meet expectations, and finding friendship, love, and purpose in a small Alaskan town that’s steeped in magic.
This was so, so good! The writing here was so lush and evocative and the magical Alaskan town where this fic takes place was really vividly portrayed. Draco's voice was wonderful and I really enjoyed the tension between him and Harry at first that slowly builds into more. Lovely and feelsy and sexy and wonderful! And with some beautiful illustrations!

Summary: Harry just wants to be safe within the freshly painted walls of Grimmauld Place, with his friends around him. But when he hears Draco Malfoy has been spotted at the local soup kitchen, he can't help but encourage a different type of stray to come under his roof.
I do adore a good Grimmauld Place fic, as well as fics that take place soon after the war and really delve into what that might be like mentally for Harry, and I really loved how that all unfolded here. Grimmauld ending up as this big shared house with all of Harry's friends made my heart so full, and the relationships and characterizations were all so wonderful! The relationship development played out really authentically, and both of their headspaces felt so believable to me. Plus I am ALWAYS here for Demi Harry, so that made my heart very happy! This whole thing was so lovely and sexy and charming and just a really wonderful read!

Title: Life on Mars

harrydracobang 2021
Summary: Harry Potter was eleven years old when he found out he was a wizard. He was twenty-one when he found out he was an alien. Or: How Harry Potter learned to stop worrying and love the democratic process.
W O W what a ride! As an ardent lover of both sci-fi and fantasy I was super curious to see where this mashup would go and I was not disappointed! The whole concept here was just fascinating and I really loved how it all still felt quite authentic to the HP-verse even though the majority of the fic takes place literally on another world. The enemies to lovers aspect was also really well done, and in general the whole dynamic between Harry and Draco was really interesting. A super unique read with some fun art and an ending that I found quite satisfying.

Title: Almond Blossom
Author:

Pairing: James Sirius Potter/Teddy Lupin
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: 4,171
Content/Warnings: AU: Omega!Verse, Quidditch Player James, Alpha!James, Alpha!Teddy, scent!kink, ruts, shower!sex, bottom!james
Summary: James plans it out meticulously--and then of course, his rut comes early anyway.
Suuuuper hot omega!verse fic with James and Teddy as best friends and roommates and both Alphas, when James goes into rut a bit early. Loved James's voice here and the take on Alpha ruts was great.

Title: Nick and Harry's Infinite Playlist
Author:
writcraft
Pairing(s): Harry/Nick, implied minor Nick/OMCs and Harry/OCs
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: 13,369
Content/Warnings: first time, semi-public!sex, bottom!harry, implied switching, light bondage
Summary: At an indeterminate point in the future it happens, just when Nick least expects it.
Truly gorgeous fic set across many years as Harry and Nick come together again and again, not quite sticking, until finally, they do. Nick's voice here was absolutely perfect, and the pining, and smut!!!, were both absolutely glorious. Plus, the playlist concept throughout is just perfect for them both and providing a wonderful structure.

Title: His Almost Lover
Author:
writcraft
Pairing(s): Sherlock/John
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: 8,888
Content/Notes: post-reichenbach, bottom!john
Summary: John grieves for Sherlock, dreams offering his only escape but no real satisfaction. When Sherlock finally confronts him, alive and well, John has to learn to love all over again.
Beautiful post-Reichenbach fic with John working through his grief and longing in the years after Sherlock's death, and then having to reconcile those feelings when Sherlock returns.

Title: The Heroes' Interlude
Author:
CraftableGame
Pairing: Dean/Sam
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: 3,674
Content/Warnings: sibling incest, established relationship, season 15, bottom!dean, implied switching
Summary: In which Sam & Dean discover Chuck’s curse of normalcy extends beyond simple colds and dental cavities...
Such a perfect coda to the loss of luck episodes in the final season, and I really enjoyed getting all those awkward first time sex feels from an established relationship fic! Super fun!

Title: On His Toes
Author:
rosych33ks
Pairing: Dean/Sam
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: 3,787
Content/Warnings: sibling incest, established relationship, BDSM, bondage, painplay, praise!kink, Dom!Sam, sub!Dean, bottom!dean, implied switching
Summary: Dean is on his toes, suspended by a single length of rope wrapped around his hands and wrists, the pads of each foot barely pressing into the stone floor when he shifts his weight from hip to hip. Sam stands just at the edge of Dean’s vision, out of reach of the dim bulb hanging overhead. He’d removed his own shirt just after tying Dean up, but the rest of his clothes had stayed.
“All right Dean, spread your legs.”
Really hot fic with Dean and Sam engaging in a bit of power exchange. I really enjoyed the characterizations here and the nuance and give and take that was present throughout.

Title: TMI
Author:
astolat
Pairing: Dean/Sam, mention of past Dean/OFC and Dean/OFC/OMC
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: 4,224
Content/Warnings: sibling incest, dirty talk, feminization, cross-dressing, bottom!dean
Summary: "We've got twelve hours of highway to go and I'm bored," Dean said.
Suuuuuper hot fic with Dean telling Sam his filthiest sexcapade and Sam not being able to stop thinking about it.

Title: Yard Dogs Series (2 Fics)
Author:
lovetheirloves
Pairing: Dean/Sam
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: 8,000
Content/Warnings: sibling incest, weecest, underage (Sam is 16), biting, outdoor!sex, bloodplay, comeplay
Summary: Dean never lets Sam have any fun.
SUCH a good weecest series with some seriously gorgeous characterizations and some crackling prose that hits me right in the feels.

Title: Down the Road
Author:
Morgan
Pairing: Dean/Sam
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: 122,569
Content/Warnings: sibling incest, first time, bottom!dean, hurt/comfort, open/unhappy ending
Summary: This takes place in season two before Croatoan somewhere on an alternate route between here and there and the other place the Winchesters never thought they'd find themselves. There's cold in Maine, flamethrowers in Kentucky and a big-assed ghost in Texas. There's explosives and bruises and kissing - oh, and bar fights pretty much everywhere.
Really engaging fic with a great Sam and Dean characterization that takes place in early season two. I loved Sam's headspace here in particular and their relationship was wonderful, but do be warned that the fic ends on quite an open/angsty note in regards to the romantic/sexual aspect of Sam and Dean's relationship.

Title: Black Cat Mercantile
Author:
deadlybride
Pairing(s): Jared/Jensen
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: 45,770
Content/Warnings: AU: Urban Fantasy, light D/s dynamics (one scene), switching, bottom!jared, mostly bottom!jensen
Summary: Searching for materials for a new sculpture he's planning, Jared gets sent to a magical salvage shop in a bad part of town. The proprietor's got a great artistic eye, a criminal conviction, and an attitude that could earn him a punch to the face. Jared finds himself coming back, anyway.
Really fascinating fantasy AU with artist Jared who grew up quite privileged and a wary shopkeeper Jensen whose got a past. This world was super interesting, if occasionally a bit confusing, and I especially adored Jared's characterization here. There's a scene at the end that plays around with power dynamics, with Jared essentially fully giving up all control to Jensen--it's clear everything that happens is consensual but also clear that even if it wasn't there's not much Jared could do about it, so tread lightly if that's a potential issue for you!

Title: Chased (Locked on AO3)
Author:
tryslora
Pairing(s): Stiles/Derek, background Allison/Isaac/Scott
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: 11,213
Warnings: AU: Omega!verse, writer!derek, barista!stiles, knotting, bottom!stiles, alpha/beta/omega dynamics, omega!stiles, heat cycles, alpha!derek
Summary: Alpha Seeks Omega
I am looking for an Omega to chase. Primary gender doesn’t matter. Age doesn’t matter. I just need a good, fun, long chase. Details will be kept confidential. This isn’t about sex; it should be platonic. Omegas due for heat will not be entertained.
Stiles needs this job...
Spoiler: it doesn't stay platonic.
Really fun and sexy ABO fic with Stiles mooning over the grumpy writer who comes into the cafe he works at, before unexpectedly going into heat. I really enjoyed the dynamics here and the whole thing was super sweet and hot!!

Title: a soul that's changing its shape
Authors:
grim_lupine
Pairings: Loki/Thor
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: 4,093
Notes established relationship, bottom!thor, post-ragnorak
Summary: Loki watches Thor until he comes awake on his own - the lashes of his one eye fluttering open, mouth twitching as his breathing speeds up. A dart of confusion crosses his face as he tries to move his arms from either side of his head, and realizes that he can't.
“Loki,” Thor says immediately; the only name that could spring to his lips, waking like this. “Loki.”
Super hot fic and I really enjoyed the dynamic between them. This entry was originally posted here on Dreamwidth. Please comment there using OpenID
