River: We both look very handsome tonight. Missy: You know, if you'd just said that I looked handsome, I would have said, "So do you." River: I couldn't take that chance.

Okay I wanna hear your recs for when you just wanna get lost in another world!

xoxo MJ/kiwiana-writes

Oh hey, @kiwiana-writes! These are multifandom, because there are so many good fics out there in so many fandoms that just provide such good escapism catalysts! They're also, to nobody's surprise, all epic AUs. (And also, hopefully you're not surprised that one of your fics is on the list. 💕)

RWRB: Where the Spirit Meets the Bones by milowren [WIP; Alex Claremont-Diaz/Henry Fox-Mountchristen-Windsor, E, 48.7k words] I rarely, rarely start WIPs; this AU is one of few exceptions. Alex's mom buys a Victorian era mansion after the end of her second Presidential term. Part murder-mystery, part romance, part modern magic, all fantastic.

RWRB: A Practical Arrangement by you!! (kiwiana!!) [Alex Claremont-Diaz/Henry Fox-Mountchristen-Windsor, E, 19.8k words] I'm fairly certain that I yelled at you over multiple platforms when I got to the end of the first chapter of this arranged marriage AU... Henry and Alex have been betrothed for three years, and the big day has finally arrived. Just... a phenomenal story.

RWRB: But I love him, whether or no. by @leaves-of-laurelin [Alex Claremont-Diaz/Henry Fox-Mountchristen-Windsor, E, 77.1k words] Henry moves to NYC to help Pez open a bar. He falls in love with firefighter Alex, who works at the fire station right across the street. Super great friends-to-lovers AU. RWRB: All the Old Showstoppers by @cha-melodius [Alex Claremont-Diaz/Henry Fox-Mountchristen-Windsor, E, 20k words] This was one of the AUs that really stood out to me when I first started my deep dive into reading fic in this fandom. Alex skips the royal wedding, and three years later he and Henry meet as competitors on The Great Celebrity Bake Off. Delicious.

Five more multifandom recs under the jump; ask me more sleepover weekend stuff!

MCU: A Story We Must Tell by AHM1121 and MissyRivers [Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes, E, 166.2k words] An epic AU in which ex-military author James Barnes and ex-military lumberjack/fisherman Steve Rogers meet and fall in love. This one took me a couple days to read, and I'm glad I took my time because it's beautiful.

Boyband RPF: The Way You Know Him by Kaelie and Bethann [JC Chasez/Justin Timberlake, M, 191.2k words] This is boyband RPF, but it's so AU that you'll have to squint to recognize the pop stars' personalities. Justin is new to a publishing house, and JC is on the board. I remember when this was first being published, I waited with bated breath every month for The Way You Know Him Day because I loved it so, so much. That has not changed.

Star Trek: Take Refuge in What You Know by CorpusInvictus [James T. Kirk/Spock, E, 120.3k words] Kirk is new to his apartment building and wants to get to know his neighbors. He meets his neighbor, Spock, a loner who suffers from extreme agoraphobia. Kirk thinks he's a beautiful enigma. This one will hurt your heart in the best way. Mind the tags, though.

The Pacific: The History Books Forgot About Us (And The Bible Didn't Mention Us) by callmejude [Mariell "Snafu" Shelton/Eugene Sledge, E, 116.9k words] A canon (history?)-divergent AU in which Eugene and Snafu bond in a different way after one of their squadmates is shot.

Smallville: Family Portrait by tzigane and zaganthi [Clark Kent/Lex Luthor, E, 130.6k words] An AU in which Lex Luthor is orphaned at a young age, and his mother's will stipulates that she wishes for Martha and Jonathan Kent to become his guardians. Slow, slow burn.

Winter Solstice gift for missyriver!

For @missyriver, who seriously had me the minute they mentioned time loops. I will never turn down an excuse to write time travel shenanigans. This story kind of ran away with me, so I've had to split it into multiple parts, but I hope you enjoy it!

Unfinished Business

Like most things in Lan Wangji’s life, it begins with Wei Ying. They fall in together so easily, like it hasn’t been months before Wei Ying’s smile haunted more than his dreams. Wei Ying is ceaseless movement, chaos wrapped in skin and bone, threaded through with laughter. He’s so all consuming in his presence that Lan Wangji could probably be forgiven for not noticing the problem sooner. 

It’s early yet, the bleary gray of predawn creeping in through the window, beginning to chase away the shadows.There’s no real reason to be staring at Wei Ying, sprawled gracelessly across the room’s other bed. He’s obviously there, right where he was when Lan Wangji fell asleep, right where he’ll be for a few more hours if not forced out of bed before he’s ready. Knowing this does nothing to soothe the urgent whisper at the back of his mine, reminding Lan Wangji of how much time passed where Wei Ying was no more than a memory he cloaked himself in, unable to let go. 

There’s no reasoning with the dread that particular thought dredges up when he wakes up with it anchored to the pit of his stomach. Easier, then, to satisfy it, to look while Wei Ying is still near enough to look at. Lan Wangji allows himself to take a silent inventory of Wei Ying tangled up in the sheets.

[wangxianfics]

I'm looking For a fic were Jin Ling thinks Wei Wuxian is being abused by Lan Wangji. If anyone knows I'd be so happy.

Hello @missyriver ! You’re most probably looking for this fic:

Life is Very Long by Vamillepudding (13K, Teen)

(Post-Canon, Misunderstandings, Protective!JL, Protective!JC, Comedy)

Wei Wuxian is a good for nothing, possibly evil, possibly fake uncle. But he's Jin Ling's good for nothing, possibly evil, possibly fake uncle. So it stands to reason that when Jin Ling starts to suspect that Hanguang-jun is mistreating his husband, he immediately recruits Jiang Cheng for a rescue mission.

@vamillepudding

[incorrect-drwho-quotes]

Missy: If I fall…

River: I’ll be there to catch you.

Jack: *looks at Rose* What if I fall?

Rose: Then I’ll fall with you, never leaving your side.

Dhawan!Master: *watches these two interactions*

Dhawan!Master, to Doctor: And if I fall?

Doctor: I’ll be the one who pushed you.
