I BRING RECS (it's a short list but RECS)
10 Things I Hate About Reunions by BryroseA, 10 Things I Hate About You. Everyone and their cat is reccing this, but I don't care, it's just so delightful. Kat quite predictably doesn't want to attend her ten year high school reunion, Bianca overuses emojis, and Patrick is a charming bastard as usual.
under god's power she flourishes by kmo, American Gods. Sam Black Crow works in Helen C. White Library with a goddess.
work it out with your fingers by Febricant, Blazing Saddles. I have maintained for over a decade that Jim spends the entire film making bedroom eyes at Bart.
Mission Impeccable by executrix, Great British Bake Off. Caper fic! Mob boss Mary Berry! Candice and her lipstick! Nadiya's color coded hijab! This is just cute and fun.
It's a Neighborly Day In This Beautywood by Masu_Trout, A House I Pass on the Way to Work Has This Sculpture in Its Yard. I'm sure everyone is reccing this too, but holy crap and elder gods it's amazing.
A Strange Attractor in a Stable System by misura, Jurassic Park. Ellie/Alan/Malcolm, and it turns out I am So Into This.
basically all of the Mesopotamian RPF because SERIOUSLY there are FOUR WORKS based off that tumblr post of the Mesopotamian tablet documenting 4000 year old shitty customer service, I fucking love fandom so much.
But the walls are giving way by FanchonMoreau, Mozart In The Jungle. The other MitJ fic this year, and the Rodrigo voice is SO GOOD. Hailey is awkward but thoughtful like she is, and I really loved Gloria in this too. Bonus hallucinatory composers.
Bed of Roses by eleanor_lavish, Pride. Thirty years of Jonathan and Gethin. Really lovely. Author locked this to AO3 members.
And A Place To Stand by shihadchick, Star Wars X-Wing. THIS IS MY HAPPY PLACE AND IT IS SO HAPPY. There is a mission and everything goes pear-shaped and Wedge is SO BAD AT WORDS and Wes is a shit I LOVE IT
to shine in use by BlackEyedGirl, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. Deirdre and Jacqueline, PTA meetings, sex, polite society, lipstick mixed to match your new dress, yknow.
A Rip in the Sky by Mithrigil, Velvet Goldmine. Are you fucking kidding me with this fic. ARE YOU. What the fuck, this is So Fucking Good. It's WEIRD and sparkly and should be read at maximum volume.
Lust for Life by Basingstoke, Velvet Goldmine. Yes, another one. Based on Ewan's life-making tweet from last year.
peace and quiet by alessandriana, Vorkosigan novels. Ivan and Gregor, my favorites, being My Favorites. I love these two so much, and their particular dynamic is pretty much the best thing for me about these books.
melt my heart down to gold by Aurum, Yuri!!! On Ice. Fluffity fluffy fluff. Turns out Yuuri beat Victor to the punch there.
