Rec List: TLT Holiday Exchange 2024
Today was reveals for the 2024 TLT Holiday Exchange, of which I'm a mod. I spent literally the entire day reading fanfiction and oogling fanart. From this first day foray, here are some of my favorites.
Note: I am a mod for this exchange. My opinions do not reflect the opinions of the moderation team, nor are they an official exchange opinion. All opinions are my own.
FANART
Beach Antics || Adorable comic featuring Harrow's hilariously failing attempts to flirt with hot surfer Gideon. I'm a fan of the line work and use of expressions.
Make It Real || Gorgeous digital painting of Cam and Pal in the moment before a kiss. Black and white and looks like a photograph. I am in awe.
IEA-3008-9 || Gideon and Harrow visit IKEA and find themselves in a zombie infestation. Hilarious and well done.
Try to make sense of this mess yourself || The TLT/Homestuck crossover you never knew you needed. Seriously, this one goes above and beyond.
Griddlehark || Gideon kisses Harrow's neck. The closest approximation of what I'm picturing in my head when I envision these two.
FANFICTION
I have not finished reading everything in the collection, and the recs below are only a sample of everything I have read. Today I prioritized longer fics, the ones that you can really sink into. I suspect these are fics that will get overlooked because of their length or subject matter, so I hope you give them a chance based on my review below.
I'll likely have a second rec list of shorter fics later in the week! :D
The Course, of Course, is the Least Direct || Rated E | 10,899 words | Gideon/Camilla || This fic captures so much character and longing. One of the first things I read this morning, and I was too lost in it to get out of bed for breakfast at a reasonable hour. A fic that doesn't require knowledge of the original source material to understand.
Long DXtance || Rated T | 7,673 words | Gideon/Harrow || HAM RADIO AU HAM RADIO AU! Imagine me and @rnanqo jumping around each other in excitement for this one. This fic captures the rare feeling of being isolated in body but connected in spirit via HAM radio conversations. The dialogue is amazing, and the ending is so satisfying.
well I walked into your dagger for the last time || Rated E | 7,622 words | Gideon/Harrow || This fic is beautifully angsty. I am eating it up and licking my fingers afterward. It's got some banger lines that ripped into my soul. Leaves off at a tense ending but based on what you read, you can see what is going to happen unfold in your imagination.
Adventures in Scientific Inquiry || Rated E | 7,799 words | Harrow/Palamedes || Do not be alarmed by the pairing. This fic does a great job portraying polyamory and platonic sex. It's also a great portrayal of demisexuality (as I've been living it at least), though I'm not sure if the author really intended that. A great way to touch on subjects that are not often explored in fanfiction.
Protocol Violation || Rated E | 7,848 words | Gideon & Harrow || Canon-Divergence where Gideon (Cell Commander Why Mourn We Not in Blood) interrogates a captured zombie (Harrow) about why all the House heirs are going to Eden. Brutally violent and left me wheeling. Could not keep my eyes off it even as I flinched.

lovers to lovers AU. where nothing changes , our love is eternal and unyielding, cannot be broken, not by any force on earth - nothing quite so trivial.

smarter things have also been done in the name of lesbianism but that's neither here nor there at the moment
