This is just a handful of stuff that lives rent free in my head. I read a lot of fanfic so if you’ve got a way to narrow it down - ship, fandom, trope, etc - I can do something a little more tailored. I know you said any fandom is fine but I’m gonna stick with hrpf at the moment unless you want recs for other fandoms.

Fic recs:

two kids, you and me by myownremedy is probably my must read when it comes to hrpf. Set during the 2016 season it’s Sid+Flower platonic soulmates Sid/Geno potential romance. It’s one of the earlier hrpf fics I’ve read and it solidified SidFlower as one of my favorite dynamics. I’m a sucker for soulmates and platonic soulmates is just *chefs kiss.* If you read nothing else from this list, read this one.

Garrote by Downjune Moving away from fic specificly, there are a handful of authors from when I first started reading hrpf back in 2017 that I will read anything they write and Downjune is one of them. This fic makes me feel insane about Grilled Cheesby. It’s such a good magic/curse au and it’s genuinely terrifying at times. It’s so good.

To Be Seen Alright by Deastar. Idk if you could do a hrpf rec list without mentioning Deastar. The stuff is long, complex, and will make you cry. This series lives in my head rent free. It’s a BDSM AU featuring sub!Sid figuring himself out through his early years in the league. Some of the stuff gets pretty heavy and Sid has a lot of internalized shame so mind the tags.

Spare Change for Parts by pikasafire there’s not a lot of SidKris out there but this one asks - if Sid isn’t a hockey robot, what if Tanger was - and it works. There’s no tags so cw some medical and injury stuff. If you’re squeamish about ppl poking around the inner workings of an android while it’s concious this isn’t for you

Behind Every Great Fortune by orphan_account Leverage fusion with hrpf characters

Do We Get What We Deserve by withershins I should probably say more about this than team poly werewolf au set during the 15-16 season but honestly I’m not sure what else there is to say

defined by their histories by sequestering. This isn’t in my top top, but I think you’d like it. If you liked early 2010s avengers mixed media fic and enjoy omegaverse and hrpf then this is the fic for you. The story focuses on the first omega in the nhl (Sid) but it’s told through the lens of emails, forum posts, news headlines, reddit, etc etc. It’s a lot, but the outside POV is so good.

Nesting Habits of Penguins Goalies by VelvetPaw goalie nesting is my shit and this is a good series featuring pens goalies. If you like this I’ve got more nesting recs.

Home Is Where by Bluejay141519 this is a platonic nesting fic but it lives in my head rent free and is right there when I think about nesting logistics and what communal or platonic nesting would look like

thanks to all who have sent me awesome podcast and book recommendations etc. my next question is this - what is your all time favourite, must read hockey fic rec? I'm keen for any pairing, any team.
