Community Recs Post!

Every Thursday, we have a community post, just like this one, where you can drop a rec or five in the comments.

This works great if you only have one rec and don't want to make a whole post for it, or if you don't have a DW account, or if you're shy. ;)

(But don't forget: you can deffo make posts of your own seven days a week. ;D!)

So what cool fancrafts/fanvids/fics/fanarts/podfics/some other kind of fanwork have we discovered this week? Drop it in the comments below. Anon comment is enabled.

Three brand new (from the last two or so weeks) MDZS/Untamed fics from me today:

Every Mother's Son by Chrononautical (11k)
Summary: When the former Madam Lan hears that the new Sect Leader Lan married a criminal who is kept in the same house where she once lived, she has only one choice. She has to return to Cloud Recesses to rescue Wei Wuxian! (Set post-canon, an excellent take on the 'what if Madam Lan lived but escaped' AU)

if love was red, then he was colorblind by locketofyourhair (33k)
Summary Snippet: On soulmates and fate and the rules on which you should live your life (A canon compliant soulmate fic with interesting world building and a look at what might and might not be different as a result)

The Needle and the Nail by littledust (119k)
Summary Snippet: Wen Qing turns up at Dafan Mountain at the same time that "Mo Xuanyu" does. She can't remember the past thirteen years, and every time she tries, she ends up in incredible pain. There must be a curse at work. Fortunately, Sect Leader Jiang has offered her his unconditional assistance. (Recently finished, this is a wonderful look at what if WQ didn't die when she turned herself into the Jins with a great WQ POV and voice)

the flood
Word Count: 27,199 words
Fandom: Our Flag Means Death
Rating: M
Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings (there is some suicidal ideation in there, with Izzy thinking it might be better to let the sea claim him)
Relationships: Izzy/Ed/Stede
Summary: Bonnet opens his mouth to say something, thinks better, closes it again, and, in one very visible sign of defeat, his shoulders drop just so. His hand moves, slow like approaching a dangerous animal, but Izzy doesn’t look away from the tired gaze of the rich fop. He can’t. He feels that hand fall on his hair - greasy and unwashed and thick with salt -, feels Bonnet’s nails scrape pleasantly at his scalp, and in the silence, they look at each other. The hand on his hair feels good, so good Izzy could go right back to sleep, but Bonnet…Bonnet isn’t done. Bonnet is never done.
“Edward loves you. You know that, right?”
The world spins on its axis.

Israel Hands has one more horrible no good day, and it changes his life.
Reccer's Note: Izzy almost drowns and it opens up some feelings. This has the popular Steddyhands trope that Ed and Izzy were once in a relationship, and I like how it was done here. I like a lot of things about this fic, recognizing Ed and Izzy's screwed up relationship, Izzy's softening towards Stede, the flushing out of Izzy's back story and how it incorporates Jack, as well as other classic pirates Anne Bonney, Mary Reid, Sam Bellamy, etc., Izzy's unspoken friendship with Ivan and Fang (they bring him canes from they find on whatever ship they raid!), and the aftermath of the toe incident. I wish there had been more dialogue and discussion between characters at some points, but the fact that there isn't also feels very Izzy.

The Untamed/MDZS

Fic:

The Second Jade of Lan’s late but incediary sexual awakening by KizuKatana
Wangxian, WiP, E-rated, College AU, getting together, horny!Lan Wangji
Alternate PoV to the truly hilarious Su She eats his heart out. We see Lan Wangji fall for genius exchange student Wei Wuxian, which includes coming to terms with his horniness and actual romantic/sexual interest in another person, jealousy of Mianmian, pining, and Lan Wangji using his words. WIP but updates regularly and is close to being finished.
Might even have been recced here already, but there was an update this week and it seems there isn't that muhc more to go.

Friends with Great Benefits by FrameofMind & Jo_Lasalle
WangXian, E-rated, 15k+, Cloud Recesses Study Arc, first time, (accidental) voyeurism
On the worst field trip known to the cultivation world (and Lan Wangji specifically), a bit of extracurricular study takes an unexpected turn.

Best Laid Plans by ilip13
WangXian, E-rated, ~ 21k, modern AU, established relationship, switching, porn with feelings
Maybe if Wei Ying is sweet enough, generous enough, loving enough now, then Lan Zhan will forgive him for the disaster that had been earlier.
Oh, who is Wei Ying kidding. Bad sex is forever. No one forgets it. He certainly hasn’t; all of his failed past attempts are currently parading themselves in his brain, like a fashion show of bad dick maneuvers.


Art:
- A lovely Wangxian comic by lotuslate
- A dark Jin Guangyao and Nie Huaisang by poiverine
- Soft WangXian by maalidoesart
- And new Wangxian art by Foxking/狐狸大王a has dropped!


KinnPorsche

Fic:

Night Call by vesna
KinnPorsche, E-rated, 32k, stripper AU, getting toegther
On Kinn's birthday, Kinn is dragged by Tae and Time to a strip club, where he gets a private dance from a man who calls himself Jom. Kinn is smitten. Things spin out from there.

Provisional Eternity (https://archiveofourown.org/works/46373620) by loquaciousEscapist, Namjoon/Yoongi, ~46k words.

I love the author's ability to come up with vibrant settings; this story has a lovely amount of pining and many funny moments, too.

Reunion fic becomes so what now fic becomes Golden Age of Piracy apocalypse fic. Stede Bonnet entered piracy just as the English started cracking down and the East India Company notices that the New World* has a lot of potential for generating a lot of cash. Real history, Jenkinsian history, and a whole lot of epic pirate stuff. And hey, Treasure Island!

*Not, of course, new to the people who already lived there.

This time I'm rec'ing a whole Leverage series - which I haven't even finished reading yet, lol, but it's quite enjoyable in general:

Providing Leverage by CharFire
A series of one-shots which can either be read separately or together. Some are Parker/Eliot slanted (though from the ones I've read so far, in my opinion it's easily read platonic), others are just general team feels.
