I am, of course, behind on my
Kinky Kristmas reading... What I have read I have almost universally enjoyed.
I always feel weird reccing fics for this fest since I've gotten to know so many lovely participants of the fest. IF YOU ARE NOT ON THIS LIST PLEASE DON'T TAKE THAT TO MEAN I DIDN'T READ AND LOVE YOUR FIC. I have left lovely comments on all the stories I have read--and unless it is one of my few squick themes or few squick pairings--I have read all up to a certain point (hence the being terribly behind) and will hopefully get to the rest before reveals.
These fics here though are just fics that I think need more love, or fics that have stayed with me and burrowed their way under my skin, or investigated kinks I didn't know I had... You know, what KK is best at. Please heed warnings and assume that all these fics will be pretty well ensconced in the NC-17 area. ♥
So, here you go:
Moon Shine or Dark (Remus/Rosmerta), 5,300 words, Themes/Enticements/Warnings: gotta-have-it-sex, cunnilingus, werewolfishness throughout.
sadfjasl;fjas;lfjaslf;j Anyone who knows me knows this was written SPECIFICALLY for me! ♥♥ I love Remus beyond reason and Rosmerta is one of my favorite tiny-minor characters to be explored in fic--and explored beautifully is she here! She is an apologetic slut and I love her for it. ♥ I loved Remus here and how hard he tries to woo her, how he tries to be gentle and kind and how all she wants to do is fuck a werewolf. ♥♥ DELISH!
Life During Wartime (Kingsley/Snape/Aberforth)5,900 words, Themes/Enticements/Warnings: cock caging, double penetration, during War (first).“Canadian Shack fic”, slight sad woob (in author's words)
I know what you're thinking because I was thinking the same: Cock Cage?!?! What the hell? And you think it's going to be cracky... or torturey... or dirty... but it's not. I mean, the story is gritty--it takes place during the first Wizarding War and it takes place in a safe house that feels anything but. It's just... this fic is really well told and it filled me with so many emotions and sometimes with a smutty fest like KK, that's hard to do. Plus, admit it, you're totes curious to what exactly a Cock Cage is, aren't you? GO! CHECK IT OUT!
Blood-Red and Bitter-Sweet (Regulus/Scorpius), 3,245 words, Themes/Enticements/Warnings: vampirism, bonding.
Here, have a summary: Lucius Malfoy probably believed that he'd won their game of Death Eater one-upmanship. Regulus Black was determined to prove him wrong.
And how does he do that? And with a grandson he'd never even been around to meet the parents of? Well, check theme. VAMPIRISM!! How cool is that?!?! Totally lovely fic with great imagery and a nice theme of revenge best served and the ways that can get fucked up when feels are involved. ♥♥
A Single Redeeming Vice (Poppy/Amelia), 3,200 words, Themes/Enticements/Warnings: smoking, butch-femme dynamic.
I don't know what about this fic moved me so but it has just stuck with me. The setting, the style, the smoking... it was just a rich and fulfilling story well told. It's nice to mix it up with some delicious femmeslash and I don't think I've seen this butch-femme theme done as well before.
Bindings (Draco/Hermione), 1,750 words, Themes/Enticements/Warnings: Shibari
Now, I have to admit, I had to Google that theme... and when the second link that came up was a Tumblr account, I clicked on that instead of the wikipedia page. Shibari is beautiful to look at as object (for those like me, it's the artful roping of the body--mostly women's bodies I gathered) but I didn't really warm to the idea of it being an enjoyable, sexual practice for BOTH parties. So, I admit, going in, I didn't really buy the theme and especially not with this pairing. I WAS SO WRONG! It was all about Hermione and what she wanted and yes, while she was in a submissive position, she was anything but an object. I highly recommend it.
And there you have it. I'm sure there will be more. But that ought to tide you over. ♥♥
