#this is my love letter to bd fic writers you fuel my brainworms

[chippuyon]

Do you have any Buddy Daddy fic recs?

*slides in* you have asked the right person my friend(or not I'm very picky about my fanfiction)

My top top recommendation will always be Bored When I Met You by Honorable_mention its just so!! Unique in the way it uses almost purely dialogue to progress kazureis character and relationship arcs. Its absolutely hilarious and thought provoking and permanently altered the way I view kazurei's dynamic. There's a very specific scene and turn of events that completely captured me and had me on the edge of my seat just read it. Also they get a cat!!! CW for implied sex, nothing explicit but it's mentioned.

Then there's the thing about love is that it ruins breakfast by postcardorigami which really captures the domesticity of living in a household where all its members deal with trauma. LOVE their Miri pov and how it gives glimpses into her and Kazuki's upbringings(which is super rare and I always get excited when I find it). Also their Rei is so caring and messed up but trying his best :( CW for an explicit scene and a making out scene, but you'll know when you get there and it's easily skippable.

Another one is to love another person is to see the face of god by farfromthemaddingcrowd which digs into the gruesome details of Rei's past and psyche and how his feelings for Kazuki help him regain his humanity. The domestic scenes are sooo cute and tender :(( CW for torture and gore from Rei's past and dreams.

And to be loved is to be changed by oongist! Very sweet and beautifully worded ep 8 fic about Rei growing to trust Kazuki and eventually Miri. CW for suicidal thoughts.

Out of Stone by Faillen is a short Kazuki character study but packed to the brim with details about his and Rei's childhoods and explores what home means to him. Also partially my inspiration for the kidaddy au!

Last one I'll rec is when life gives you lemons you establish dominance by swallowing them whole by munyusz which is just a very cute and funny what-if-Kazuki-and-Rei-met-Denji-before-Makima au.
