Saturday Night Recs
Dec. 25th, 2021 09:38 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
Merry Christmas to those of you who celebrate it (or don't mind being well-wished, whether you celebrate the holiday or not). It also happens to be the last Saturday night of the month, and I've had a lot of free time in the past week to catch up on a backlog of fic that I've read and enjoyed or found interesting enough to add to my database.
I haven't had the opportunity to watch the new Matrix film out, so other than one or two *mildly* spoilery fics which were posted on the day it came out, I've not been reading new Matrix fic since it came out. All of the Matrix fic below was written using the first three films only, or (in the case of a few AO3 fics) some of the promo material. If you want to avoid all spoilers in this post, then avoid any Matrix fics with AO3 links and you'll be fine.
( Icon guide )
( Explanation of ratings )
( Content warnings and spoilers )
( Ships )
Below are the recs:
( Chronicles of Narnia (books) / Lord of the Rings (books) )
( Spiderman / The Matrix )
( The Matrix )
If any of the links above no longer work (and are inaccessible via the Wayback Machine), please let me know so I can flag them as "Dead" in my database, thanks!
Enjoy! :)

Community Recs Post!

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 deffo make posts of your own seven days a week. :D!)
So what cool fic/podfic/fanart/fanvid have we discovered this week? Leave a comment below. Anon comment is enabled.

Misc fandoms & crossovers I read & saved
May. 23rd, 2021 03:42 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
These are all the fics from miscellaneous fandoms and crossovers that didn't fit in my other posts. All complete, not flagged in my database for anything in particular.
As always with my db-generated lists, ratings are all converted to a single system for convenience:
Fanfiction.net - G through R
AO3 - PG through X (though the occasional child-friendly fic I mark G)
anything without a rating (AO3 or other site) - Unrated
There are few enough of these that it wasn't too hard to put ships - most of them are unusual enough that I remembered what they were about.
( Chronicles of Narnia [books] / Lord of the Rings [books] )
( Deep Impact )
( Gold Diggers )
( Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman / Smallville )
( Smallville / The Pretender )
( Stick It (2006) )
( Misc. Crossovers )
If any of the links above no longer work, please let me know so I can flag them as "Dead" in my database, thanks!
Enjoy! :)

Re-read favorites
Sep. 4th, 2020 08:41 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
I can't count the number of times I've read these fics… I've got lots of favorites, but all of the ones on this list are ones I will just browse to on my hard drive (I save everything I like reading) and pull up to read, because I remember the author and title straight off, lol.
I left out anything that was a perma-WIP, or where I couldn't pick even just *one* of the many fics I love by an author. Those are better suited for a thorough recs post on another day.
( Leverage )
( The Lord of the Rings (books) )
( The Matrix )
( The Pretender )
( Rizzoli & Isles )
( Rookie Blue )
( Smallville )
( Sue Thomas F.B.Eye )
( X-Men Original Movieverse )
I ended up skipping Alphas and Push entirely because as much as I enjoy re-reading fics from those fandoms, I have a lot of "I love reading these" rather than a few really strong standouts - or in the case of Alphas, I have one that I'm saving for the rarepair post I'll get to another day.
And I couldn't even *try* to come up with a list for Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman. I've read and re-read SO MANY of the fics over the years (it was one of my first fandoms) that the list would be ridiculously long. Suffice it to say, I'll have to make a recs list just for that fandom sometime. But that might be a while, lol.
