Challenge #13
Make a rec list!
Okay, I already made a rec list for Day 10 of the Snowflake Challenge of fics that have stuck with me over the years. So I thought this time I would rec some more recent finds I have enjoyed:
All Along There Was Some Invisible String Tying You To Me by ciabattabread
Fandom: Doctor Who
Pairing: Donna & Ten, Donna & Fourteen
Rating: G
Word Count: 924 words
Summary: Something happened to Donna Noble during the year she lost. Out of the corner of her eye, she can just see another string, a second connection... but for whom? And why can't she remember?
Notes: I'm not normally one for soulmate AUs, but I loved the idea of Donna and the Doctor being platonic soulmates.
Blackbeard and the Gentleman Pirate Answer the Web's Most Searched Questions | WIRED by charlieloverboy
Fandom: Our Flag Means Death
Pairing: Ed/Stede/Izzy
Rating: G
Word Count: 2252 words
Summary:
FOR PUBLIC RELEASE
Video title: “Blackbeard and the Gentleman Pirate Answer the Web's Most Searched Questions | WIRED”
From WIRED Entertainment
Notes: I don't how this author did it, but I can completely picture this interview inside my head (maybe I have just watched way too many of these types of videos in the past). The dialogue flowed in such a way to be consistent with these types of interviews, and it also felt in character. The story does a great job of releasing tidbits of information about their life in this modern AU. I only wish there was a companion fic for this piece showing how they got together, because I would read the hell out of that. I head-canon that Izzy is Ed's manager/producer.
Asking for More Again by mossylog5
Fandom Our Flag Means Death
Pairing: Ed/Stede/Izzy
Rating: M
Word Count: 6691 words
Summary: Israel Hands is having a no-good very-bad day. He’s locked himself out, it’s snowing, and the only place he can reasonably go is his ex-husband's new partner’s house. And on top of it all, he’s got a fucking cold.
Notes: This is just my type of fic, Izzy being sick and being forced to accept care. Although this has the basic set-up for a lot of Steddyhands Modern AUs, I did like this author's interpretation of it, and how Ed and Izzy actually manage to talk about their feelings.
I'm In Love With My Own Sins by turps
Fandom: Marvel Comics/MCU
Pairing Clint/Bucky
Rating: G
Word Count: 6816 words
Summary: Magic. It's always magic.
Notes: Bodyswap fic! This isn't one of my usual pairings, but I enjoyed this one. I love how Clint and Bucky are just so used to weird stuff happening to them they're not even that phased by the bodyswap.
Comfort Amongst Chaos by WillowTea
Fandom: Good Omens
Pairing: Azirphale/Crowley
Rating: T
Word Count: Fancomic!
Summary: Crowley shows up at the bookshop spouting incoherent nonsense about Aziraphale being in danger and needing to keep the angel safe. Aziraphale does his best to understand and comfort Crowley through what is a difficult time.
Notes: I was gifted this fantastic comic for the Good Omens Holiday Exchange. The artist does such a great job with the expressions, you can feel Crowley's fear and Aziraphale's worry.
Speaking of Good Omens, enjoy this fun vid with a some nice editing:
Have a good day!
