Hidden Gems 7: A Shadowgast Rec List
This week we have the 7th hidden gem rec list! Check under the cut for 8 fics that have less than 150 kudos, and don't forget to comment and kudos if you like them!
Moths and Marigolds by Foxtrot66 (1741, Teen) Reccer's Content Notes: Major Character Death
The Clay family welcomes Essek to The Blooming Grove, helping him through a tough time.
Reccer says: A soft, atmospheric and sad glimpse in the future of what Essek's life might be like. I keep coming back to re-read. On top of that the illustrations are absolutely beautiful!
An illusion and the real thing by AFractionIrrational (6376, Teen) Reccer's Content Notes: Imprisonment, Interrogation
Caleb Widogast is less persuasive in the throne room and first meets Essek Thelyss under different circumstances - as his prisoner.
Reccer says: A very compelling and interesting canon divergent AU with those early Shadowgast mutual manipulation vibes
The Dancers and the Dreamers by royalgreen (allyoop) (7671, Teen) Reccer's Content Notes: No Content Notes
The night has finally arrived: it is the Jester and Fjord wedding, an event with no surprises whatsoever. Definitely nothing silly. An absolutely completely normal wedding. There are no secrets and definitely no shenanigans.
Reccer says: It's a Shadowgast-Centric look at the Fjorester wedding, with a lot of Nein-typical shenanigans and a lot of fluff. A very cozy read!
Judgment & Justice by BurdensOfTomorrow (57477, Mature) Reccer's Content Notes: past child abuse, referenced torture
The Trial of Trent Ikithon, former Archmage of Civil Influence.
Reccer says: I love this for the same reason I love highly specific AU's - the author is definitely bringing a lot of passion and experience into their writing, and with expert skill
Insinuation by JustNap (2502, Teen) Reccer's Content Notes: No Content Notes
Caleb and Essek have a very 'serious' talk about what is to come in the future.
Reccer says: This fic is so sweet, funny and heart-warming.
Coming in from the Cold by MorningBright (7165, Teen) Reccer's Content Notes: Panic attacks/disassociation
When Essek suffers a panic attack, Caleb helps him through it in a safe place and they discuss their complicated experiences with cold/snow. Set post-campaign 2.
Reccer says: It's sweet, amazing hurt/comfort
Running in the Rain by Luuuna03 (4637, General) Reccer's Content Notes: No Content Notes
Essek didn't intend to break into Caleb's house, steal his food and fall asleep on his couch. It just sort of... happened...
Reccer says: Great fluff (and not just the cats)
Footsie by Northofthewall (2182, Teen) Reccer's Content Notes: No Content Notes
Essek discovers touch can be magical, overwhelming, addictive, and maybe has a little downside.
Reccer says: Essek losing his ability to concentrate over the smallest touch is just *chef's kiss*

Afternoon light in the University area, closing in on teatime The National and Kapodistrian University of Athens is at the top of the short Korai square leading up from the larger Klathmonos Square. This is the Central Business District of Athens, bordered by the classic neoclassic buildings surrounding the University. Business and office buildings are the main functions in the buildings in the area. This means great offerings of big brand shopping, breakfast bars, lunch and afternoon restaurants, and a very quiet area after business hours. The old Themistoclean city wall build 479 BCE had its northeast limit here. The modern university area is outside the classic city limits. http://www.athens-greece.us/athens-guide/klathmonos-square/ #streetphotography #citywalk #klafthmonos #square #northofthewall #afternoon #soft #university #athens (ved Πλατεία Κλαυθμώνος) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQk4dU3J0FL/?utm_medium=tumblr

Much love and thx to @northmanactual for sending me this gift. We often talk of Fred Bear and his exploits when we are in Maine shooting. I guess I better ask @aron_snyder for help so I don’t shoot myself………I look forward to learning a new skill. #northman #northofthewall #defoor #defoorproformanceshooting #kd4 https://www.instagram.com/p/CUF1GQ8FBM1/?utm_medium=tumblr

Marriage/Engagement Shadowgast Recs
This week, we've got eleven fics that deal with marriages or engagements! Check them out behind the readmore, and as always, if you like them, don't forget to kudos or comment!
A fic that celebrates birthdays and traditions while slowly realising that Essek's path is entwined with Caleb's.
like coloured indigo inscribed with my name by KmacKatie (30648, Teen)
Reccer's Content Notes: No Content Notes
Reccer says: Rich Dynasty worldbuilding and wonderful character moments between Essek and the Nein, it really is about Essek learning what family is and how that family is Caleb.
Caleb and Essek end up in an arranged marriage, with each side having their own goals and secrets
A Tapestry of Stars by Cinderstorm (95903, Explicit)
Reccer's Content Notes: Choose Not to Warn, Referenced past abuse, WIP
Reccer says: A sci-fi arranged marriage AU with spies, suspicion, political intrigue, and some genuine affection in the mix - there's a lot to love!
It's about the wizards building a life together and having important conversations and having hot sex.
the endless string of summer storms that led me to today; began one afternoon with you, long ago and far away by MarsBar2019 (22801, Explicit)
Reccer's Content Notes: No Content Notes
Reccer says: It is a great balance of domestic wholesome fluff and hot sex. The wizards deal with the realistic and difficult questions of building a life with the person you love in beautiful ways together. From home buying, to discussions of having children and getting married. All the grownup relationship topics + kinky sex.
Caleb's plan is to leave when he starts getting old. Essek has a different plan.
One day, Liebling, we'll be old by The_Rogue_Bard (4877, Teen)
Reccer's Content Notes: No Content Notes
Reccer says: I can't say everything I like without spoilers, but I can say this. I like the seeing what the Nein are like 20-30+ years in the future. I like how sweet and romantic Essek is.
Caleb and Essek are happy and in love, and decide to take the next step. The customs of the Empire and Dynasty are rather different, however, and what is a wizard meant to do except research how to propose to his partner, with some help from friends along the way?
of blossoming hearts and glittering souls by quinn_of_aebradore (77995, Teen)
Reccer's Content Notes: No Content Notes
Reccer says: This is a beautifully written fic with so much character! There are lots of soft moments between each of the characters, and the last chapter DID have me tearing up.
Caleb and Essek visit Una and Leofric's graves. Essek asks their permission to marry their son.
Permission to Send by Nienna19 (1107, General)
Reccer's Content Notes: No Content Notes
Reccer says: It is so sweet and romantic. I like that Essek is the one to propose and I liike how he does it.
2 weddings, 1 fic. A private ceremony with family. A public ceremony with even more family.
All this time love, I sublime love, to the feelings in my mind by onyxshinigami (17041, Mature)
Reccer's Content Notes: No Content Notes
Reccer says: Soft vibes. Warmth and Happiness. A found family. A touch of fashion for visual interest.
Caleb proposes to Essek after suggesting he take his surname.
Hold you in my hands like hot tea by Technojuicebox (970, Teen)
Reccer's Content Notes: No Content Notes
Reccer says: Cute and fluffy wizards in love!
Caleb and Essek have a normal conversation (that ends with a proposal)
A Perfectly Ordinary Conversation by Northofthewall (317, Teen)
Reccer's Content Notes: No Content Notes
Reccer says: It is short, sweet, cute and funny.
After Essek is injured and comes to Caleb for help, Caleb proposes a certain solution.
and then two recs each for these last two:
stars align (hearts beat in time) by flashhwing (2823, Teen)
Reccer's Content Notes: No Content Notes
Reccer 1 says: I liked it! Reccer 2 says: Very cute, very sweet glimpse into a possible future for the wizards!
Five times Caleb and Essek get married to other people and the one time they get married to each other, kinda.
I Do, Five Times Over, I Do by TormentaPrudii (Illustrated by Cha Cha Rae) (2450, Teen)
Reccer's Content Notes: No Content Notes
Reccer 1 says: I love the pining, the misunderstandings, the cultural differences, the art. There is so much here to love. Reccer 2 says: It's a beautiful fic full of longing and love.

In recent years, I’m finding myself traveling to places I’ve visited before. I prefer this as a photographer because you can take a step back during return visits (having taken the “obligatory" shots from the initial excitement during the first go) and challenge yourself to find some unique angles and perspectives. Here’s another shot of Reynisfjara captured via drone I probably wouldn’t have thought to capture (nor have the time to) during my first visit. And, btw, Game of Thrones is back in less than a month! #northofthewall #westeros #reynisfjara #iceland #classicjourneys #travelwithfathom (at Reynisfjara) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvM77WUgt7o/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=lofvpaawyevq
