December meme: aspects of my favorite fanfics

[kindkit]

I haven't had problems with insomnia in quite a while, but tonight, after going to bed earlyish because I have to be at work at 6 am, I woke up at a little before midnight and could not get back to sleep. I could quite happily sleep now, at 3:30 in the morning, but there's the whole work at 6 thing. Not good

Thank you! *bounces* Oh, the fun I had writing that fic *g*

And lots of interesting recs to explore. I love subversion. Few a/b/o fics seem to be as directly subversive as that Sherlock one (which I remember reading on a rec of yours a while back, and enjoying) but there are a few others I've encountered that do use the trope to explore something sociological, with parables about challenging gender or relationship norms. I often go through the AO3 'trope inversion' tag...

I had to restrain myself from reccing several more of your stories: in the end I picked that one because you do so much in it with so little help from canon, and because as a consequence of how little canon there is for these characters, readers don't have to know the canon.
