augustusgloopswag. Gen, lots of characters. Song by Saint Motel is a swinging upbeat number with lots of brass, aka the PERFECT song choice for this franchise. I think I've watched this five times already. CW for some brief/implied gore, but this goes fairly light relative to the movies. Just a really fun time.

Lawrence/Adam, 36k. After they both survive Saw I, they have a lot of recovering to do. There are a number of fics in the tag on this theme, but this is the first one I read and probably my favorite. I enjoyed the slow progression, the character voices, and all the little details, and I especially enjoyed one of the late reveals. Just really satisfying mutual h/c and recovery.
rematch byunstuckintime
Lawrence/Adam, 22k. Adam is in a time loop. His ankle is chafed, he’s craving a cheeseburger, and he may or may not be falling for Dr. Lawrence Gordon. It’s the worst day of his life—and there’s no end in sight. What a terrible period of one's life to live over and over again! What a great fic premise! :D This hits all your basic time loop beats, but with an extra kick because of how things end every time. I enjoyed the angst and relationship development a lot.
Ley lines byturnabout
Lawrence/Adam, 37k. Seven years after surviving Saw I and several thousand miles away, Adam is really unhappy to run into Lawrence again. I apparently am a huge sucker for reunion fic, and this one is really fun as they work through their respective damage. Plus, the sun-soaked Arizona setting is a nice contrast with canon.
Year of the Pig byfiddlestick
Lawrence/Adam, 4k. Kramer, a man in Adam’s friend’s apartment building, died expectedly and without mystery. He left little behind save for a typewritten film criticism of The Gordon Record. HOUSE OF LEAVES AU. This is short but sweet, by which I mean angsty and creepy in the best way. Adam plays the role of Johnny Truant, which IMO is a huge improvement, with all Adam's trauma and backstory. This is definitely a very remixed version of the novel. I love the gradual reveal of how much of Saw canon applies here, and the ending is perfect, very much in the spirit of the book.
