Original Fic Recs
These are all things I discovered because of my lovely circle, communities or a fest I took part in. All are original fics and all are short fics.
The Last Contact - A beautiful short sci-fi fic where humans are the last contact of a dying species and demonstrate the best sides of us for a change. Sad and hopeful at the same time.
Shit Cassandra Saw That She Didn’t Tell the Trojans Because at that Point Fuck Them Anyway - Outstanding, painful, triumphant. Exactly what the title says.
The Skin Keeper - Four ficlets about shapeshifters, all clever and touching twists on the theme.
Best Art Friend; Or, Girls, Goblins, and Everything - In which art is about making it and happiness is found with friends. Hopeful and kind and affirming.
Uncensored - Okay, this is antropomorph fic but I think it still sort of counts. Three of the biggest fanfiction websites in one room. Hilarious.
If Comfy, Warm, and My Size, Why No Sit: A Meta-analysis of Research into the Warm Flat Rectangle by Dr Fluffy Jones - Absolutely perfect. Rigorous research. No peer review notes. Recommended for publication.
wait() - I'm not crying, you're crying. A lonely robot is waiting.
