#assassins creed modern AUs are my fave

[magniferaindicat]

Modern au assassins creed 3 hcs GO!

• Achilles raised Connor since he was 13 after Ziio passed away. Connor met Haytham officially when he was 17 because Connor vandalized Haytham’s car for ignoring him for so long and when Haytham had Connor arrested that’s when he realized he had a kid

• Haytham and Connor tried to build a relationship after that. The tension between Achilles and Connor got worse with that but to make things worse, Connor and Haytham just don’t get along 😭

• CEO Haytham where Connor just kind of bursts into his office sometimes just to hang out and bother his dad. And when Haytham asks him why Connor’s like “you got 20 years to make up for” so Haytham’s like “ugh”

• Shay is Haytham’s… “traveling representative”. When he comes back to the office he spends a lot of time in the boss’s place…

• company Christmas party where Thomas Hickey gets drunk off his ass. Connor asks why Haytham hasn’t fired him yet. “He’s a good worker. Most of the time.”

• Connor’s assassin recruits are his book club. The other assassins (Ezio, Altaïr, Desmond, Jacob, Evie, Arno, Bayek, Aya, Kassandra, Eivor) are his cousins. You can usually see those cousins doing parkour in abandoned buildings

• Ezio and Desmond were the ones who got Connor to vandalize Haytham’s car btw. Altaïr and Jacob helped and Evie tried to convince them not to but Kassandra and Bayek and Aya and Arno supported but weren’t part of the act LOL

• Connor’s legal name is Ratonhnhaké:ton ofc but he does usually introduce himself as Connor Davenport (Achilles adopted him). After meeting Haytham, Connor hyphenates his last name to “Connor Davenport-Kenway”, which pisses Achilles the fuck off

• Shay, Achilles, and Haytham having the most awkward history ever…and now they share a kid 😭

• Ziio being alive means she goes off on Haytham and Achilles for being jerks to her son…Connor’s like “TELL EM MOM”

• Connor gets picked up by cops a lot bc he and his cousins and his friends keep breaking and entering into prohibited places like old malls or old hospitals…Achilles and Haytham bail him out tho

Oh, hey! How’d you get here?!

Welcome to my little corner of the internet!

⸜(｡˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡

I’m Asteria, but my friends call me Teri and my pronouns are she/her!

Asks and DM's are always welcome! However...

I’m a grown adult, so please if you’re a minor that wants to interact with me, keep it to my ask box only! Take it from someone who was privately talking to grown people online much too young, it’s never worth it! Protect your peace so I can protect mine. ദ്ദി ˉ͈̀꒳ˉ͈́ )✧

I write South Park fics and shit! Here’s what you can currently read on my ao3!

The Song of Broflovski (TSOB)

A parody/retelling of the Trojan War through the exploits of some small town fourth graders. Crass and silly and meant to closely mimic the feel of the show. Great for people who don’t like smut, but DO like toilet humor and kids that cuss!

Exactly Where I Left You (EWILY)

My take on a high school au with a little twist, complete with overly-dramatic teenaged angst, love triangles and sexual awakenings. This fic takes place within the same universe as TSOB, though that isn’t required reading to enjoy this story! Be warned though, this one does contain mild smut.

Remplir Sa Bouche (RSB)

A smut-heavy one-shot I cooked up one day, where Stan works as a private chef for Kyle and his wealthy family. This fic exists well outside of my typical universe, and outside of any concept of decency. If you dare take a bite, then I hope you’ll enjoy your meal. Bon appetite!

La Petite Mort (LPM)

The much anticipated (and equally smutty) sequel to RSB. The story of LPM was originally meant to be included in RSB, but was cut for the sake of keeping that story short. Please enjoy RSB as the appetizer, and LPM as the main course.

Momento Mori (MM)

A one-shot exploration of Kenny working as a mortician, working through regrets from his youth as he prepares the body of Butters’ father. No smut, but lots of gory details on the embalming process, if you’re into that sort of thing.

Other content:

EWILY Extras: Short stories that add to the story/context of EWILY! If you’d like to read them in chronological order, please check them out here!

You can listen to music I associate with the EWILY boys and their arcs on my Spotify!

The EWILY boys also got Pinterest boards! Featuring a WIP board for RSB/LPM (˵ ¬ᴗ¬˵)

Current WIPs:

FartGate

Avec Ses Yeux

And many more ideas currently waiting for their turn in the oven!

(˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧

Since you’re still here, I’ll share some other things about me!

I’m a double Scorpio, Aries rising and INFP!

I primarily ship Style (or Stanky if you prefer) and Bunny, but I also dabble in Bendy and Yentlman. And Creek, of course. Canon kings.

Though South Park is my primary focus, I also like a lot of other cartoons! I’m also a big fan of Bojack Horseman, Moral Orel, Clone High (the first season rip), Futurama, Smiling Friends, ATLA, Castlevania, the list does kinda go on. Feel free to chat with me about other shows!

I am also an anime enjoyer, though I don’t keep up with a lot of the modern popular shows. Hands down my favorite shows have been Ouran High School Host Club, Black Butler (the manga is better hehe), Madoka Magica, Panty & Stocking, Spy Family, Aggretsuko and Clannad!

Very casual video game enjoyer. Some of my favorite games include TFBW (obviously!! A masterpiece!!), The OG Spyro trilogy, Bayonetta, Assassin’s Creed (especially Odyssey, you KNOW I’m a Classical Greece girly), and The Sims.

I listen to just about any kind of music, but I’m especially partial to pop-punk and k-pop. My absolutely faves of all time are BTS, Twice and FOB.

I’m not afraid to block people, or tags for that matter. Won’t yuck your yum (too much) but if I don’t wanna see it, I won’t be seeing it.

Thank you for reading this long-ass post! I hope you have fun here!!

[inevitably-johnlocked]

Trying to organize my ask notebook better since I've run out of space under general fandom asks and I would like to know what fandoms you are in so I can ask the correct people about the correct fandoms.

I think my main ones are Bagginshield/The Hobbit, Sherlock/Johnlock, Dragon Age Inquisition, {Pippin/Faramir Merry/Eowyn}/The Lord of the Rings and I dip my toes in a few that I currently can't remember but ones I don't engage in canon at all are Good Omens but only for Crowley/Azirapheal ship, Stranger Things but only for Steve/Eddie ship, The Witcher but only for Geralt/Jaskier things and Ladybug and Cat Noir but only for Adrinette .

Also do you like getting asks that are or include story ideas or snippets?

*Asks are sent for fun, no pressure to answer within a certain amount of time or at all.

Hi Lovely!!!

OH GOSH OH GOSH OKAY, I'm actually part of a lot of fandoms!!! I'm not very active in a lot of them these days but I LOVE asks about them. My main active ones I either participate in or lurk in currently (with my preferred ship in the brackets):

BBC Sherlock (Johnlock)

Good Omens (Ineffable Husbands)

Moon Knight (Layla / The Moon System)

Loki Series (Mobius / Loki)

Red Dwarf (Lister / Rimmer)

Detroit: Become Human (Hank / Connor)

Here are the other ones I still adore and visit frequently, and was a big part of the fandoms:

Darkwing Duck (Drake / Morgana)

Sonic SatAM (Sonic / Sally and Bunnie/Antoine)

TMNT 2005 and TMNT 2012 (Casey/April in '05, none in the other. Leo is my fave character in both series. He always has the best character developments and stories)

And here are some other fandoms I check out and love and adore:

Kingdom Hearts Series (Sora / Kairi, but my fave character is Roxas)

Avatar: The Last Airbender (Katara / Zuko. I'm STILL SALTY that it was literally RIGHT THERE and the much better ship and they still went with the boringest one)

Assassin's Creed Series, more the modern era RPG games but I love pretty much all of them. My fave one is Black Flag, though. I loved it so much.

Our Flag Means Death (Stede/Ed)

And some other random fandom things:

Stitch is my favourite Disney character of all time, and Maleficent is my favourite Disney Villain.

My oldest fandom is the Sonic the Hedgehog fandom. There was a time I had to play every Sonic game ever made, until they got bad for awhile. I participated in the fandom when I was in my teens and early 20s, and wrote a fairly popular fanfic series based on the Sat AM series (which I argue is still the best Sonic TV show ever, and it's Sonic/Sally forever for me, I don't like Amy Rose at all). My fave character from the games is Shadow though, followed by Knuckles and then Sonic LOL.

Kingdom Hearts Series is my fave video game series of all time, followed by Skyrim, then Assassin's Creed. I AM that idiot who will buy all the games of these series Day One. I love the worldbuilding in all three of these series and they're ripe for AUs.

I Love the MCU, despite its flaws. I usually see every single Marvel movie or show when they come out. Aside from the MCU fandoms listed above, my other faves are Antman 1 and 2, Guardians of the Galaxy 1, Avengers Endgame, Doctor Strange, Hawkeye, and Falcon and the Winter Soldier.

Fruits Basket (Kyo / Tohru). I actually love the revamped 2019 series, as it follows the manga and it was completed.

Ranma 1/2 (Ryoga / Akane) is my fave anime though. The manga is really good, I read the whole thing in one night on one of those translation sites.

I also love Dragon Age: Inquisition!! Not super familiar with much of the lore since I've only played it once, but I loved it. The world was so interesting and I want to play The Vielguard, though I might wait until it goes on sale since it's not a must-play at the moment for me.

There's SO MANY MORE I could add, HONESTLY, but I'll be here forever listing shows and nostalgia that still makes me SO happy. I LOVE talking about fandoms so I love getting these kind of asks! I can write more if you'd like LOL.

AND to answer your final question, YES, LOVE THEM. I add them to my 'writing prompts' tag for my or others' reference if a spark of something comes to me, AND I love getting story snippets because even if they aren't, they feel like little gifts for me, you know? Because someone took time out to share them with me, you know?? AHHH, so yes, if you or anyone else has them, please share them!!

Thank you for this ask, I love talking about my other fandoms!! Please feel free to ask me more about fandoms, all!!

[neechees]

in god of war au and fanfiction what do you to see

Like what kind of things have I seen? I don't frequent fanfic that much, but I've seen some stuff. Both horrific (I'm sure you can guess what, proshitters ruin everything), and fun and good. I have yet to see a gow/assassins creed crossover. Lots of modern AU's, but I don't read them because I like historical stuff & don't understand why modern AU's are so popular for historical settings.

Yeah idk I don't read fanfic a whole lot! Im waiting for updates on my faves rn tho

[asteraegis]

well i colored it, happy birthday month to my fave boy ♡♡♡♡

heres the clean ink version too

[cherrybombfangirlwrites]

Hey! Happy Blorbo Blorbsday! In a modern AU what would your OCs favourite movies or games be?

@bloodlessheirbyjacques

Hey, Jacques! I'm gonna do my FSF babies for this one, and it ended up being less specific movies and more just what their movie taste is in general, but oh well:

Tris: Doesn't really watch movies or play games much, but she likes "a slice of life" movies, mainly comedies or just silly little sitcoms. She also wouldn't be opposed to something historical, depending on what time period it is and how it's written.

Prince Kaye: He likes rpg games, particularly of the more medieval kind, and he's also partial to movies where the dog dies (read: Where the Red Fern Grows and Old Yeller), he does cry but doesn't mind that he does.

Snow: She likes fantasy, but specifically the 80s flavor of fantasy that's just weird all over and feels like a fever dream with crazy special effects. Her faves are Pan's Labrynth and Neverending Story. It's not her favorite but she also likes Willow.

Lan: technically not movies, but they like anything Shakespeare. Particularly adaptions of Shakespeare that are a little controversial on the accuracy, they like to analyze it. Their favorite is the 1990 adaptation of Hamlet with Mel Gibson. They're also partial to anything theatrical, so they will watch movie musicals and go to Broadway plays (Elliot goes with them).

Cassandra: Might be a little on the nose, but the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy (the other movies do not exist), and the Little Mermaid. Even if she wasn't a pirate and a former mermaid, it still feels right for her adventurous and clever personality. Plus she has a little fictional crush on Elizabeth, Will, and Prince Eric.

Erica: Rom-coms. She's a hopeless romantic and loves to have a good laugh, of course she loves romcoms. She also ironically likes Hallmark movies, just because she loves to criticize them as she watches and ship the two guys in the love triangle that the girl is backed into (because let's be honest, those two guys always have some kind of sexual tension going on).

Prince Monty: Indiana Jones movies, they're exactly his idea of fun. He also likes The Mummy and the Mummy Returns from the 90s. He loves the thrill of adventure movies (typically featuring archaeology or ancient curses), and he has a bit of a fictional crush on Rick O'Connell in the Mummy movies. (Hestia hates him for his taste in movies, and they always fight on movie nights when it's one of their turns to pick). He likes adventure video games as well, like Legend of Zelda and Assassin's Creed.

Max: Not much of a fiction guy, he prefers nature documenteries and other nonfiction media. He does, however, like any movies with Robin Williams in them, those movies are very comforting to him (me too buddy). His favorites are the Night at the Museum and Jumanji (the original one in case that wasn't clear).

Elliot: He's a theater kid like Lan, literally anything Shakespeare, theater, or musicals kind of media. His favorites are Twelfth Night, As You Like It, Hamilton, Hadestown, Music Man and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. This boy is a theater kid, and Lan is right there with him. They go watch musicals together.

Hestia: She and Tris are similar in that they like more "slice of life" and "realistic" stuff. She also likes things that are a bit more historical and classic literature type movies. Her favorites are Little Women (she prefers the 1994 version, but isn't opposed to the 2019 version), Anne of Green Gables (prefers the 1985 adaptaion), and Pride and Prejudice. They have a bit more fantasy but she also likes Anastasia (the movie) and Disney's Alice in Wonderland.

Raven: ..... Princess Bride. He loves Princess Bride. He doesn't really like watching new stuff sometimes, so he usually sticks to a few movies that he knows and loves. He loves Princess Bride for many reasons, but the big one is that he projects his and Sapphire's relationship onto Westley and Buttercup a little too much. He also likes Encanto, Lego Batman, and Nightmare Before Christmas. He also likes to play Legend of Zelda and Super Mario World, but doesn't play video games very often.

Sapphire: Her hyperfixations change every week, and she never sticks to one genre. However, if she's in between hyperfixations or can't choose because of choice paralysis, there are some movies she likes to fall back on: The Rescuers and The Rescuers Down Under, The Lego Movie, Coraline, Antman and the Wasp, Thor: Ragnarok, Clue (1985), Wall-E, and Lilo and Stitch.

Triveya: Loves the Lord of the Rings movies, and anything else fantasy. Anything magical fantasy is her jam. She also likes the Tales of Arcadia series (Wizards is her favorite show in the franchise), Hocus Pocus (the original), Wandavision, Tangled, and the Owl House series.

That was a fun question @bloodlessheirbyjacques , thank you!

[ask19thcentury-doctorgilbert]

so since i’m replaying bioshock for the ??th time let me share one of my fave AUs for dr. gil as a doctor who was originally invited to rapture to help with the little sister program but quickly turns rogue and starts stealing the girls away because neither his stomach nor his conscience could handle the fucked up shit they did to these poor orphans. i can see him working with tenenbaum once she goes rogue too, helps her formulate the plasmid that lets you rescue them instead of harvesting them, and just takes care of the girls’ health in her safehouse

i have so many videogame based aus for dr. gil, i got one for prey (the modern one), assassin’s creed, mass effect, and fallout

Headcannons/similar: AMA about 🌊 Abby/Ellie or 🩺 Abby/Nora or Abby, Ellie, Dina or Nora individually bc I love thinking about them!

Abby/reader requests are limited: I basically started to take them on as a ⛓ kinky referral service 😅 sometimes when @kittycat-beans gets requests outside of what she’ll write. Please request Abby/reader elsewhere first (see recommendations below) unless either:

You are sure what you want is gonna be too obscurely kinky for other writers or

You’re wanting a Gender Neutral (GN) reader fic and/or are trans/enby/intersex/et cetera and are more comfortable requesting from me for that reason.

Things I don’t do:

Choking (overly normalised in so many fics when it’s actually hella dangerous irl, and I’m just bored of it)

Vanilla sex (I just don’t find it interesting to wanna write about)

Threesomes or group sex (Too many limbs and other body parts to keep track of)

Assume people are cis, assume people have particular body parts or combos thereof, assume people are not intersex or assume people are a given gender. If you want Abby/reader smut that explicitly refers to the body parts or genitals you have, you gotta tell me what those are. Ditto with gendered language or other language you don’t like. I can keep request details private if you let me know in your ask you don’t want it to be published. You can DM me requests to avoid the ask box limits if you’re comfortable doing so or dw about sending me a ton of asks to stay anon. I’ll write whatever body/gender/lack of gender you want, regardless of whether it’s common or not.

Ship hate (And I’m sick to death of people equating fiction about fiction with actual crimes against actual humans. Just DLDR (Don’t Like, Don’t Read), it’s not that fuckin’ hard.

Kink shame. (Fuck people who do this, but in the pejorative sense, not the sexual sense. I don’t know how well I’ll do at something until I try, but I’m open to having a go with basically any kink, even the ones most writers don’t take requests for, so go for it!)

Make fun of anyone (even actual dickheads) for how they write or speak ever. Please feel absolutely free and welcome to talk to me regardless of your level of English.

Mock any honest question whatsoever. Not sure what I mean? Perplexed by my weird British slang? Abbreviation got you like “wtf”? You can always ask. Please do.

Other things I can do:

I am open to beta reading TLOU fics: DM or send an ask and we can discuss this

Answer questions, give advice or offer feedback about writing autistic characters with sex lives, writing AutDHD characters, and/or other atypicalities that I have, DM or send an ask.

My Requests:

Requests I’ve made that were written by other wonderful writers:

Nora’s Office: Abby/Nora smut 🩺

Green-eyed: Ellie/reader smut 💚

You Can’t Keep An Eye On Me 24/7: Abby/reader bondage smut 🔐

Sweet Girl: Abby/reader hair braiding fluff 💆🏼‍♀️

[horsyunicorn]

fanfic authors tag game

Tagged by: @eclecticmuses​ thank you! Amazing to see Alastair, Fitz and Jemma at 2:25 PM on a week day

Tagging: @ladysmaragdina​ @matredaen @sashacore and anyone else - if you see this and would like to do this, go ahead!

Ao3 name: horsyunicorn (misthios-managed)

Fandoms: Assassin’s Creed. (I’m currently writing but haven’t posted for: Mass Effect (2 works) and Dishonored (5))

Number of fics: *highly nervous sweating* I’m just a tiny baby writer! I have but one. It has three chapters and they are WILDLY varying in length. I’ll answer these following questions based on those.

1. Fic chapter you spent the most time on:

dream 26 “the Misthios and the Vase” - this chapter has a proper intro, middle and ending; it has multiple scenes, quite a few more characters, and a lot more action than the other two chapters (although I wrote chapter 25 after chapter 26 - they don’t follow so closely like episodes of a serialised tv show). I wanted to get the description, feeling, and action just right. it also took a lot of words to describe what I wanted to happen!

2. Fic chapter you spent the least time on: dream 25. About 25 minutes I’d say. I based this upon a minute or two of gameplay so it was very easy to write.

3. Longest fic chapter: dream 26 again. I think I‘m being influenced by eclecticmuses because I’m used to fic chapters being near or just over 10k in order to feel properly satisfying and descriptive.

4. Shortest fic chapter: dream 25. I didn’t feel the need to make this any longer. It was just the right length as is.

5. Most hits: dream 24. I guess this is the most generally appealing chapter I’ve written? I suppose that the level of sensory immersion and description I achieved in this chapter was acceptable for my readers?!?

6. Most kudos: dream 25. I am very surprised by this because of how quickly I wrote this and threw it up on ao3. I guess that not everything requires tons of rewriting??

7. Most comment threads: tied between dream 24 and dream 25.

8. Fave fic you wrote: Definitely dream 24. It’s the cutest, the most well-balanced, and the cosiest, I reckon.

9. Fic you want to rewrite/expand on:

At some point when I have motivation, I’m going to write about how Enyo and Kassandra met. I’m also going to fill in some of the gaps between dream 0 and dream 25 with fun or sad or interesting chapters based on things that happened to me in game.

I’m also going to write bits and pieces set after dream 25 about

10. Share a bit of your WIP or share a story idea that you’re planning: here’s a bit from my Dishonored 2 Modern!AU, in which Alexi and Emily didn’t grow up together, but instead meet for the first time at work where Emily is an overworked underpaid accountant, and Alexi is a security guard:

“They’re bullying me,” said Emily, looking 3000% done. “They’re playing a sick game on me, because someone found out my last name.”

“Why would that matt- what is your last name?” asked Alexi, instantly curious.

“NEVERMIND what my last name is, it’s all a conspiracy!” Emily had dramatically dropped her customer service persona with the door closed.

“Okay. Um. Why do you have car-parking forms in here as well?”

“Look,” said Emily, in the voice of someone explaining why Santa no longer existed this financial year to a five-year-old, “car parking is managed by security staff, i.e. your lot. But casual, part time and full-time employees pay for parking through a monthly deduction from their salary meaning Payroll has to be involved when applying for a parking permit meaning I have to have these forms in my office right here.”

“Oh.”

“Now can you please leave me to sort out your new wages. And open the door, people get suspicious if I close it during the day.”

ten awesome fics 🙌

tagged by @clotpolesonly to list 10 awesome fics!!! not a ranked all-time-favorites thing, but just fics form any fandom that i love, but um, these will probably be my all-time faves anyway (they’re not ranked though). Most of them aren’t actually from any of my usual fandoms, because sometimes I just like to read mindblowing fic, you know? And most of these mindblowing fics often show up in tiny fandoms with little drama and incredible authors who kinda pop in, drop a fic, and vanish back into their own regular fandoms.

(Limiting the number of Batfam fics on this list was really hard omg I should do a Batfam fic list at some point)

Can the City Forgive I Hear Its Sad Song by @victoriousscarf (Dick Grayson/Jason Todd, DC Comics) --- Hoooooooly shit guys this one’s fucking incredible (I mean this author’s incredible in general but this fic). Even if JayDick is not really your thing, you should absolutely consider giving this a shot. I know this is a JayDick fic and that relationship is great (like holy shit great it’s written really well), but what’s really fucking incredible in this is the Bruce and Dick relationship. The DC fandom, particularly the older DC fandom, used to put out some fucking incredible Bruce/Dick relationships, but this one, I think this is the closest thing to their canon relationship that you can get. Bruce and Dick aren’t even anywhere near each other throughout 98% of this fic but you can sense their relationship overwhelming everything else anyway. They’re not in love, they’re not really family, they’re not really friends, they can do without each other, but they love each other more than they’ll ever love anyone else, they are family, and they are friends, and most of all, they do need each other whether they want to or not. I can write a dissertation of Dick and Bruce’s relationship obviously, but the worldbuilding in this fic is also cray, and the plot, particularly the ending, blew my mind. The main story is COMPLETE, but I’m loving the AU of this AU too, even though it’s a WIP right now. Such an excellent read, I can’t emphasize it enough.

1000 Days by @zarabithia (Dick Grayson/Clark Kent, DC Comics) --- (full series linked in the masterlist) Okay, you know how there’s that one fic that can make you ship something so hard it becomes an OTP? This is that fic. This series is the definition of “writing makes the ship”. Before this I never even considered Dick/Clark and now it’s a DC OTP like what? How did that even happen? Except it is that good. And the crazy thing is that it works, with a canon premise. It’s not even an AU! Dick meets Clark when he’s just a baby Robin, and the series works through the entire timeline as Dick grows up and makes friends and faces life issues and becomes independent of Bruce, and the slow, realistic development of his relationship with Clark as he grows from the little boy who was starstruck by Superman, into his own, adult person. (Also the Roy/Dick friendship in this is bomb.)

Roadtrip Vigilantes by Beabae (beabaseball) (Dick Grayson & Bruce Wayne, DC Comics) --- I. I can’t. This one just. I love it so much Bruce and little Dick and running away from the League so they can stay together -lays down on the ground and cries-

Republic of Heaven Community Radio by @bicatperson (Carlos/Cecil, Welcome to Night Vale, His Dark Materials, Fusion) --- If you’re into Welcome to Night Vale and are familiar with His Dark Materials please do yourself a favor and read it. Incredible storytelling, incredible writing, incredible plot, incredible representation. There are like, two white characters in this, and the culture is marked out very clearly as Not White. Loved everything about it. Loved every character (but loved Cecil the most).

Sass-Badger Verses Son-of-No-One by @bewareofchris (Malik Al-Sayf/Altaïr Ibn-La’Ahad, Assassin’s Creed, Modern AU) --- I know nothing about Assassin’s Creed other than that they jump really high and wear cool outfits, but you don’t need to know anything about it either; this fic stands on its own two feet. This fic made me care about whatever plot point or character or relationship it was focusing on at the given time instead of only on the overarching plot or the romance or one or two characters. The storytelling is, frankly, the best I’ve read in a very, very, very long time.

A Deeper Season by lightgetsin, sahiya (Miles Vorkosigan/Gregor Vorbarra, Vorkosigan Saga) --- Fanfic series for the Vorkosigan Saga, which is a series of novels? Don’t know anything about them at all, never read ‘em and, after this fic, can never read them, because the original novels can’t possibly live up to this? This is my canon now. Amazing, amazing story. Amazing, amazing characters. Very unique take on a royal romance.

A Tithe to Hell by Aja (L/Light, Death Note) --- Okay, you do need to know the canon for this one. Basically, what if L was even more paranoid than he actually was, and L and Light’s, er, relationship, continued past episode 26. In case you haven’t guessed, this is my new canon for Death Note. I can never go back. Best characterization, amazing storytelling, incredible dialogue, and did I mention the characterization???

Single Use Weapon by @fahye (Jack Benjamin/David Shepherd, Kings) --- Fahye is one of my favorite authors of all time and this is, hands down, my favorite thing they’ve ever written, which is crazy, picking a favorite was really hard all their stuff is so good, but this is the one that’s going to stick with me for a long time I think. I love a good spy/double agent story, and this fic has the best plot and characterization of any spy(ish) fic I’ve ever read. It’s so good, guys, The way Jack is written, it’s droolworthy for so many reasons.

Whispers from the Rye by @@somniumquiesco (Wolfram von Bielefeld/Yuuri Shibuya, Kyou Kara Maou) --- ajshdkjafldksalkdsjl I don’t even know what to say I started reading this when I was a teenager and nearly ten years later I still read it over and over again. I’ve changed, my tastes have changed, but my love for this story has not changed one bit.

Shadowlord and Pirate King by Footloose (Merlin/Arthur Pendragon, BBC Merlin) --- Epic space adventure AU the worldbuilding in this is so fantastic it’s got magic, space pirates, assassins, intergalactic war, political intrigue, pirate politics, a prophecy, and a thousand other really fucking great things. The Merlin fandom and Footloose in particular regularly put out insanely amazing stuff, but this is the peak. I would pay actual money for this fic, which is more like a novel really. (Also @mushroomtale‘s art is A++++++ gorgeous as usual but extra gorgeous because I love this fic the most? Also the art goes so well with the fic in terms of style and tone too???)

One day I will probably be able to write an actual PhD dissertation on Bruce and Dick’s preboot relationship but today is not that day, so I’m going to sadly turn this over to @storiesintheashes, @ice-tiger-kitten, @procellariidae, @naiadique, @girlwithribbon, @merkitty, @imonajourney, @mtblackbearfic
