This is your second of three posts for the current freeze, which will be from the morning of Thu, 03 Feb - the evening of Sat, 05 Feb. Business as usual will be resumed from the morning of Sun, 06 Feb onwards.
1) During the freeze only prompts about urgent things are allowed (eg. the Easter Bunny falling pregnant, the Yeti declaring his love for Carmen Sandiego, these sort of things.*)
2) Unprompted fic is allowed as the freeze is intended to give people time to fill prompts they have eyed for some time and/or write the fics they've wanted to write. Please remember to self-prompt!
This rec post is THEMED, which means that categories will be provided under which you can post your recommendations.
1) Genres, the most popular kinks and the most popular pairings have been extracted from delicious. Everything else you have to put under the 'rare pairs' or 'other kinks'
2) Please don't post one fic rec in more than one category.
(If, for example, your rec fits the categories gen, hats and octopodes, you might want to think about which of those is the most prominent feature and post it under "hats" if it is a serious kink or under "octopedes" when this is what defines the fic and hats are a mere accessory.)
! To keep is vaguely organised, I would like to ask you to stick to the following rules:
3) Please specify in the subject line whether it is a rec you are giving or requesting.
a) When you are requesting a rec, the letter is [Q]. You can then specify what you are looking for; e.g. let's say there are a hundred AUs in which freckles make you magic, you should post under the AU thread and say that you are looking for a gen one in which a lion explodes.
b) When you rec something, the letter is [A]. It would be good to also specify more things about the fic; e.g you're recommending one of the hundred AUs in which freckles make you magic, then (to distinguish it from all the others) you should say that the AU is particularly fluffy and that all bats can talk.
4) When you answer a request or give your rec, it would be nice to say why you chose that particular fill.
5) When giving a rec, it might be a good idea to not just give the link but also include the number the fic has on delicious. (optional)
If you have any questions about this, please ask them in the questions thread, which should be the first one.
recs,
