Every Thursday, we have a community recs 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 to make posts of your own, or if you're shy. ;)

(But don't forget, you can most deffo makes posts seven days a week. :D!)

So what cool fic/vid/art have we discovered this week? Drop it in the comments below. Anon comment is enabled.

Five fic recs in five different fandoms from me today!

Batman (comics) fic:
The Rule Stands by Engineerd (11k)
Summary snippet: Damian meets a 10-year-old Dick Grayson, and they become best friends. (seriously adorable, sweet yet poignant time travel fic)

Detective L fic: (I doubt anyone knows this ridiculously tiny and unknown fandom {it's basically Sherlock set in 1930s Shanghai} but I decided to rec for it anyway, especially since I think this fic can be read canon blind)
No other plans for the evening by frith_in_thorns (1.5k)
Summary: Luo Fei's getting looked after by his friends whether he wants it or not. (Wonderfully written fic that perfectly captures the disjointedness and confusion of a head injury and adds in some gentle and lovely h/c)

Guardian (TV) fic:
always now, always slow by emlof (3.5k)
Summary snippet: “Zhao Yunlan,” he says, looking at him with such intensity that Zhao Yunlan wants to flinch away. “When was the last time you slept?” (great exhausted and overtired Zhao Yulan POV)

The Lost Tomb Reboot fic:
The Road Ahead by Hils (2k)
Summary: Missing scene from 1x03. Wu Xie gets sick after being out in the rain. Pangzi and Xiaoge take care of him. (gentle and sweet h/c sick!fic)

The Untamed/MDZS fic:
pitfalls of greed by glitteringmoonlight (3k)
Summary: Wei Wuxian gets kidnapped. Things don't go well from there.... for the kidnappers, that is. (Delightful outsider POV)

kingstoken: (Kirk Spock McCoy)

I DID Wish You Luck by thisstarvingartist
Word Count: 1464
Fandom: Star Trek TOS
Rating: G
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Spock/McCoy, Kirk/Spock, implied Kirk/McCoy, implied Kirk/Spock/McCoy
Summary: Jim Kirk and McCoy were the first of the crew to enter the cargo hold once the shuttle had landed—reasonable, of course, given that they were the captain and the chief medical officer, respectively, and Commander Spock had just returned from a trip which had very nearly cost him his life. Certainly it made logical sense for two of the three most vital members of the ship’s crew to personally receive the third upon his return.
Perhaps less logical were the coursing tears that distorted both men’s vision, as they rushed to his side. He very gracefully stumbled out of the shuttle, each man taking a place at one of his flanks to hold him steady on his feet.
Reccer's Note: A coda to the episode The Immunity Syndrome, only in this their relationships are already romantically involved, or getting close to it. If you ever watched that episode and wished that McCoy had told Spock that he had wished him luck,then you might like this one. Plus, Spock gets some nice care and comfort, even though he, of course, claims he doesn't need it.

Realism as Aesthetic, Melodrama as Law: Examining Melodramatic and Realist Conventions in Supernatural by [archiveofourown.org profile] thisyearsgrrrrl

SPN, meta, 4k

This isn't a particularly light read. It's old. It has a few typos, and I'm not sure all the images actually are there. But those are superficial observations. I love the title, the idea that SPN wants to appear realist but is rooted in melodrama. I love this kind of meta that really discusses things, and I was happy to find this piece. It's interesting even to skim - maybe pick up some ideas that relate to realism or melodrama.

Iron Fist:Bodyguard by Sholio
Canon-divergent AU: the Hand assigns Colleen as Ward's bodyguard pre-season-one.
I only know the fandom via osmosis but this is great, I really loved the character dynamics.

A bunch of art recs from twitter; one Mob Psycho 100, the rest Boku no Hero Academia:

MP100
.Teru/Shimazaki comic by [twitter.com profile] mp_nano; <33

BnHA
These are all by [twitter.com profile] hys_ry, who does super cute and great Hawks/Tokoyami art and I absolutely love their stuff!:
.Blessing; I love the simple style of this, and it's such a cute lil moment. <33
.Tokoyami/Hawks + flowers; very similar to the above, I especially love how they did Hawks' wings here. <3
.Flirting; <33
.Close friend; I love this so much, Dark Shadow being so affectionate with Hawks and confessing his (and Tokoyami's) feelings so openly to Tokoyami's shock is so good, haha! (Hawks' amused reciprocation is super sweet as well!) <33
.Possessiveness; red string of fate! <3
.Tokoyami/Hawks; <33
.Don't let go; I love this a lot, especially with how their hands are intertwined, and Tokoyami's hand in Hawks' jacket. ;u; <3
.Hawks with Tokoyami pajamas; super cute and silly. <3
