🐞🐜

Recommend a favorite fic or several from one of your friends, or a fic author you really look up to!

Oh damn- one friend??? One author I admire?? Imma cheat- it’s has to be three or whatever

@ajna-eye-cogitations is one of my favs ofc

Heartlines : a beautiful echo fic thatshows a sweet and emotionally intimate moment between the couple, really putting Max’s romantic -and kinky- side on the table, and being written really poetically as always

Blanco Navidad : a Christmas time fic that is sooooo sugar sweet it gives me a toothache and also is super sexy but in an understated way- weaving together imagery through memories and experiences and emotion instead of physicality

Thicker Than Pod Vapor : a look at the stress and destress Max would feel welcoming his kids into an unwelcome world- lines of this still haunt me, like knowing he will never fully be at peace and believe himself safe nevertheless his children

@rewritingroswell’s fics are also amazing <3

Impulsive Decisions Made Under The Moonlight : for those Max/Charlie cravings :P

The Consequences of Being a Tease : Delvecho- what’s not to love. Also, super sexy as always. And like… my brain short circuits everytime Max calls Maria ma’am. Also, just the decision to make a fun little competition to make Liz orgasm? Instead of an angsty who’s better in bed? Glorious.

I’m Burnin’ Up On You : t4t echo! They’re soooooooo. And then they’re- ugghhh- this fic captrued them so well, their earnest communication, their burning desire. It’s all there and more. Go read it. Please.

Cheating a second time with @ladynox and @beautifulcheat with two joint works and then one individual (cause I can’t not- they’re too good to pick just a few)

The Truth is Right Here : xfiles. Meets rnm. Malexa and Kaliz and mystery. And just- it’s so god. Truly one of the most intricate and well handled stories (emphasis on story not fic!) I’ve ever had the pleasure to read. From Michael and Max pretending to be ghosts, to Liz fiercely gathering mushroom samples, to Kyle bumping shoulders with Max, to Michael buying Maria a tacky bracelet, to Alex accidentally implying a threesome vacation, to Maria wearing Michael’s hat, to all the fucked up alien stuff (and lemurs) and Jesse Manes it’s a wild ride more than worth taking. Go read it. Like truly- even if you haven’t seen the show, you’ll fall in love with these characters.

Dealing With Dragons : Maria is a witch. Michael a dragon. Fate brings them together in a magic forest? What more could one ask for? The answer is a beautifully written fantasy setting that will have you purchasing the inspiration book to sit on your nightstand.

Nox’s Rough Stock : ummmmmm sexy. like so sexy. brain dead type sexy. Maria pegs Michael- need no say more? Well I will- it’s slow and sensual and just so well done. Sorry- your work is so amazing and I’m like ah the smut.

Beautifulcheat’s Surreal Estate : *hides cause I’m behind* Just the best. Like these three girls are perfect in this setting. Not only that but the romance and the ghosts as metaphors is so well done. I’m on the edge of my seat every chapter head spinning to figure out all these mysteries. Also there’s a cute little demon dog. Precious.

Recommend a fic that makes you laugh! A crack fic, or something that's just really funny!

Ohhhhh- I just rec’ed this in like two servers, but Guerenti Gay Chicken in which they have a kid before someone loses????? Perfection.

Delvecho + "Cool" by Dua Lipa happy birthday @dr-lizortecho

[credit: diamond layout is from this edit!]

[piccolina-mina]

Max's house is the perfect place for Rosa to reside while they figure everything out. He's absent, so Liz would want to stay while they figure out how to get him back.

I love that Maria's car is prominent at the location. It means she'll be there too.

I just love the idea of Liz and Rosa moving in temporarily while he's away. Maria gravitates there as well after a while. She likes being close to her best friend and also, it's lonely at home now that Mimi is at a facility.

So the girls all move into Max's house temporarily without consciously meaning to ... it just happens, and when he comes back they kinda never leave.

At first he feels like a stranger in his own home because they made themselves at home over time. There are touches of these women everywhere. And then he caters to them a bit like a good host would, but eventually it feels like it's always been this way.

He loves to drive home after a long shift. Usually Maria is leaving back out for a shift at the Wild Pony. She kisses him on the cheek when he comes in. They weren't particularly close before, but they're connected now.

He died to revive Rosa, and she's just tired of losing people, but he revived her best friend, and makes her other friend happy, and he's her people now.

She's the one who did most of the decorating. Just because. Area rugs. Throw pillows. Knick knacks. Candles. Splashes of color everywhere, and he likes how warm and homey it feels now.

Rosa casually walks out of her the guest room to raid the refrigerator. She gives him the head nod. They eventually found a rhythm over time. It's not as awkward and stilted.

She always has jokes and a bit of attitude, but he likes it. She's snarky with a dry humor. She makes digs about him being the law harassing citizens all day. Takes a jab at him being any form of authority moral or otherwise. They're less heated though. She's all angsty teen who flips him off but respects that he treats her sister right.

Liz curls up on the couch and reads. He sits down next to her and puts her feet in his lap. She didn't cook that night, but she'll draw him a bath later. It has become her thing. He's not sure what kind of healing properties she imagines a hot bath has, but she insists on them since he has been back.

He indulges her. They all have. Maria leaves him bath oil blends she makes herself along with a salve for his bum shoulder. He's the healer, but there's something about Maria's presence that is soothing. He can't explain it.

Max cooks a lot. Some days they rotate, but he does it most. He likes to cook for them, but it often makes him nervous too. Rosa is the one who challenges him most. He denies the remarks about unseasoned food -- takes them in stride, the "whatever you say, Blanco" he waves off too.

She'll never say it's good, but she eats and doesn't rummage through his cabinets for additions. It says it all.

Not that he minds because what he could lack in seasoning, he can make up for with his impressive assortment of hot sauces. He's proud of them.

Max cooks dinner later. He drinks out of the mug Rosa lowkey made for him. An alien pig. She drew all over it, and neither of them openly acknowledges it's his favorite mug.

She kinda made a mural on his wall too. She dismisses it as boredom and an attempt to get under his skin, but it's stunning blacks, reds, blues, and violets. She doesn't think he notices, but she keeps adding on to it. It creeps across the wall, vibrant and mesmerizing. Some days he just sits and stares at it and smiles into his mug.

For dinner he uses the herbs Maria has grown in the garden she started in his backyard. No, not those herbs. Although, they fell into a pattern of him looking the other way when she takes a moment to relax.

It's a complicated contraption she has arranged that is suitable for the desert life. Sometimes he tries to help tend to them, but plants are not susceptible to his healing hands.

Rosa has noise cancellation headphones for the evenings. They all found out the hard way how thin the walls are and how loud Liz is. She goes on long walks in the desert. Some nights Maria accompanies her.

Once, they made a makeshift tent in the desert and roasted marshmallows in a bonfire. The girls talked about adventures they got into growing up. They laughed, even Rosa, and let the desert air and stargazing lull them to sleep.

Max is an early riser. Sometimes his shift starts early. He let's Liz sleep in, but every now and then they squeeze in a quickie before she rolls over sated and dozes until her alarm goes off.

Mornings are usually quieter. They're the most like how life used to be when it was just him and his thoughts.

Rosa sleeps late, some nights she has nightmares, and they long since learned to leave her be in the aftermath.

If he times it right, Max makes breakfast before he leaves and it's still warm when the girls get to it.

Sometimes he and Maria cross paths in the morning. She's a bit of a nomad who breezes in and out at will. Often she stumbles in late after closing up. She's all soft snores, tangled curls and limbs sprawled on the couch.

He drapes a throw over her so often it carries her scent.

Other times she's coming in on his way out. He finishes up making her a smoothie and puts in her mason jar.

She hands him a cup of coffee just the way he likes it that she picked up from their favorite shop.

They don't always say much. They never really need to. She flashes him her brilliant smile and gives him random words of encouragement that always make him feel good.

Occasionally, he trips over someone's shoes (usually Rosa's) on his way out and swears a little, but it never sours his mood.

He smiles a little at Maria's car parked next to his, still hot from the leisurely drive.

And as he pulls away, his arm resting out the window as he cruises into town those dark and lonely days of the past have all but faded away like a distant memory.

Roswell, New Mexico Polyam Fic Rec List

Roswell, New Mexico has a ridiculously good cast with an enormous amount of onscreen chemistry. This has resulted a huge number of viable ships. This list recs some of my favourite polyam fics.

Kaliz = Kyle Valenti/Max Evans/Liz Ortecho

Malexa/Milexa = Michael Guerin/Alex Manes/Maria DeLuca

We Were Bound To Get Together by @myrmidryad (25,376 words)- I love this fic so much. ​I wrote a detailed fic rec. It's about Michael and Maria navigating their relationship and working out where Alex fits in. Because Alex is important to both of them and there was no doubt that room would be made for him.

was it all too much, or just not enough? - colfield (@colfields ) (3,449 words) - Where Michael learns to trust, Alex learns to give up a little control and Maria is surprised. Explicit.

I Was Just An Only Child of the Universe (And Then I Found You) by @haloud , MayGlenn (WIP). Found family, lost family, reunited family. This ones got it all (so read the tags!!). It's our favourite polyam family roving space in their ship!!

Mylex = Michael Guerin/Kyle Valenti/Alex Manes

open up my eager eyes by @haloud (series total - 44,525 words). It is impossible for me to overstate how much I love this fic series. It is so, so, so good. This is my detailed rec post for this series. It's a series of interconnected fics which have a variety of vibes that all still work together. It's about how Alex and Michael and Kyle comes together and then how their relationships grow and develop over time.

Conversations in the Crashdown -  darkangel86 (6,491 words) -  a bit of a talk fest but one where some very necessary things get said by all involved. No porn.

A little more conversation - BeStillMySlashyHeart (@bestillmyslashyheart) - a series of connected ficlets that somehow ends up with multiple couples trying to bed Kyle Valenti. Gen (despite the topic).

“I think we should stop seeing each other” (@el-gilliath​) - Michael’s insecurity rears it’s head and Kyle and Alex have to communicate with him. Great characterisation, a bit of angst but a happy ending.

Formilex = Michael Guerin/Alex Manes/Forrest Long

There are plenty of other polyam ships that I haven't listed, mainly because I haven't read them, so can't rec. But I'd love if people added their recs for the missing ships:

Kylubel = Kyle Valenti/Maria DeLuca/Isobel Evans

Marosabel = Maria DeLuca/Rosa Ortecho/Isobel Evans

It takes nothing to get me back on my Maria, Liz, Max (delvecho) OT3 bullsh!te. 😂 But really ... 👀

[dr-lizortecho]

oh, wait till you see my baby move

[dr-lizortecho]

also, not that anyone cares but there’s an au where Maria is a lawyer and Max is a stripper tangled up in a murder case (Noah Bracken) and she has to represent him pro-bono for her company -cause no one else wants to- and then she’s falling in love with him and realizing at the same time he might have actually murdered this guy

[dr-lizortecho]

Some Delvecho for @rnmafterdark Day One: Alien Anatomy (cause not even a reference to Liz “experimenting” on her alien boyfriend was a loss)

“It’s for science-“ Liz repeats her mantra “-sexy science.”

Maria snorts, “that’s the only motivation? Nothing to do with oh ‘Maria post channeling lightning his dick was vibrating’?”

Liz all but pouts, looking down at her drink as she swirls the thin black straw. There’s a long stretch as she either sobers up or starts reminiscing a little too hard about the way Max’s body had been a live wire underneath her hands. How after he came he’d collapsed into his mattress in a fuzzy haze for hours while Liz just soaked up the warmth of his skin.

“Snap out of it,” Maria laughs, snapping her fingers in front of her girlfriend's face.

Liz arches a brow with her lips pursed in amusement. “You mean to tell me you don’t want to see what it’s like? See him drop all those inhibitions and just- he’s high, he’s high and the sex is electric.”

Maria shakes her head with a laugh, grabbing at Liz’s drink. “It’s time to close up, love.”

“So?” Liz waggles her eyebrows, giving Maria her most sultry look. The same heaviness in her dark brown eyes she got when she pinned Maria to their mattress, wrists above her head before latching onto the pulse point on her throat.

Maria snorts. “We both already know that if Max is ready and willing I’m up to it.”

It was inconvenient at best. Max’s house was situated so far from Roswell, from the Crash Down and even further from her lab at Deep Sky. The only true convenience was it was located on the west side like the Wild Pony, making Maria’s commute easier- even if double what it was when she stayed at her own place.

But it was hard to deny that an extra fifteen minutes on the road was worth waking up cocooned in the king sized bed and the lovingly crafted breakfast Max always had prepared the moment Liz had finished applying her makeup and securing her hair in a messy bun. Or for Maria the morning cup of coffee with cream hearts and a sweet kiss to the cheek as she mentally prepared for a long day of shaking down customers.

They had ironed out mornings like these to a science. Bodies moving in almost perfect sync, Liz silencing her alarm and crawling out of bed first, while Maria grumbled and rolled over and away from Max, freeing him to fry bacon and start the coffee pot, while getting her last precious hours of sleep before having to open the bar.
