Challenge #6 of

was to rec something created by someone else!

In honour of my slutty slutty fandom ways, I simply went to my AO3 history and picked some pages in random and collected 10 fics in 10 different fandoms, all which I remember enjoying for a variety of reasons. Please note that this is more like a sampler and not any kind of 'best of the best in given fandom' because I Read A Lot and am not that organised.

(Also, you wouldn't think to look at this list but I don't just read porn! And yet...)

Any time, any place, any way by yantantether (Guardian, Shen Wei/Zhao Yunlan, E) - Zhao Yunlan is away on a conference and missing his hot bf. Initiating phone sex is such a great idea. Things escalate. This is happens to be the most recent fic I've read that fit the criteria! My id and the author's share the same gutter so pretty much everything she writes is Relevant To My Interests and this is no exception. It's a pwp but one with playfulness and tenderness in addition to the filthy sex (which ticks many things of my kink list such as bruises, manhandling, power play).

Dream A Little (Wet) Dream Of Me by skintightsocks (Glee RPF, Chris/Darren, Chris/Darren/Lea, E) - Told you've I've been on Glee nostalgia tour. I like this author's everything, would highly recommend pretty much all their fics. This one just happened to be on my randomly selected page. This one is a lot of banter and pumpkin-carving and sharing of sex dreams ("I had a dream Lea and I double-teamed you," Chris blurts out) and phone sex and it's just very... Easy? Angst free and fun (and funny) and I actually like how there is no traditional 'then they got together' ending here, just... Some hot young people having hot fun.

I don't gamble but if I did I'd bet on us by ships_to_sail (Schitt's Creek, Patrick/David, T) - A delightful AU in which Patrick is a DJ for local radio's folk hour and David has a car radio that's stuck and Opinions on the music he's subjected to during his late night drives. This is so cute with spot-on characterisation and genuinely adorable meeting/identity reveal. Also, the sound-track is pretty good and introduced me to some new music.

they'll say we're in love by psikeval (Hamilton RPF, Jonathan Groff/Lin-Manuel Miranda, E) - Genuinely sad there isn't more fic for this pairing and there's a part of me that is still playing with that bdsm!AU idea for this pairing but so far have resisted. Anyway, this is a lovely friends-to-lovers slide with flirting and pining and text-messages and it's just stomach-swoopingly wonderful.

Only When Spoken To by CaptainWeasley (Brooklyn 99, Amy/Jake, E) - This is one of my favourite canon couples and absolutely rife with femdom potential. Which is realised beautifully in this filthy, filthy established relationship smut with role play, rules and excellent verbal humiliation. As the summary says 'Amy is now a sergeant and Jake is definitely into it.' The fic is definitely hot, but the love and trust between the two of them is really what gets me going. Happy sigh.

Ryan Number One by quackers (Buzzfeed Unsolved, Ryan/Shane, E) - Shane accidentally sends a rather explicit text to the wrong Ryan... Ryan can't stop thinking about it. A delightful frolic through the 'oh wait, my bff isn't as straight or as vanilla as i thought and now i have some feelings' trope and listen kids, I Am Here For It, especially when it also includes some sexy, sexy first time d/s.

Follow You Down by kirk_spock_in_the_impala (ryokoyuy) (Witcher, Geralt/Jaskier, M) - This definitely incorporates book/game canon that I know nothing about but it doesn't really matter, because it's essentially a bdsm!au where Geralt is both a sub and a Witcher and he never thought that combination would have a happy ending but turns out Jaskier has a thing or ten to teach Geralt and his family. Hello, have you met me? 146k slow burn friends-to-lovers bdsm!au is like delicious crack to me. This is also angsty, has some trauma recovery, more family feels than you can shake a sword at and is just utterly, utterly lovely.

Love in all its Forms
by Branwen_Blaidd (Sense8, all canon relationships but Wolfgang/Kala/Rajan centric, E) - When the show solved the seeming love triangle with a loving threesome I (literally) screamed in delight. The fic picks up the morning after and offers a long and loving exploration of the new relationship dynamic between them (dating, parents, therapy, intrigue!) as well as giving time for all the other relationships and friendships and cluster love. Absolute comfort read with changing povs.

I’ll Never Let You Go (If You Promise Not to Fade Away) by rabidchild67 (Grimm, Nick/Monroe, M) - Groundhog Day AU where Nick keeps dying and Monroe keeps trying to save him. Fun and deliciously angsty version of the timeloop trope with some pining and happy ending. Much enjoyed.

The Birthday Muffin by Lily_Dragon (Broadchurch, Alec/Ellie, T) - They are such human disasters who in this share not just painful history but also a birthday, which they navigate with much awkwardness, accidental innuendo and pining.

kat_lair: (GLEE - too hot for this sweater)

Things that have kept me sane and entertained and happy lately:

- This delicious James McAvoy picspam

- Interesting musings about fame and real person fandom

- Doing two mixes for the Mixtape Exchange (one for Psych, one for gen theme of 'slow slide to madness/evil' *g*). Also really looking forward to receiving mixes for all three of my prompts.

- Dwarves from The Hobbit

- Reading fic in various fandoms. I think next week is possibly Kat Recs All The Fics: Round 2, so you might want to mentally prepare yourselves for another week of fic recs. Hardship I'm sure.

- Trying to write some fic. Have over 2,000 words of ridic George/Mitchell (Being Human UK) rentboy!fic done that I'm trying to finish... Also, I just found four handwritten pages of Gus/Shawn (Psych) rentboy!fic on a notebook. Apparently I'm working on a theme. And that theme is male prostitution.

- Rewatching all of Glee. I don't even care, it's my happy place right now and I still have ALL THE FEELINGS about Kurt. And Blaine/Kurt. Also Brittany/Santa. My favourite scene of season 2 is the Kurt&Blaine duet at the Regionals, especially because of Puck's/Mark Salling's face in the audience when he's watching it, how unashamedly emotinal he is. I have a theory that it is actually more Mark Sallig being a GIANT SAP WITH HEART-EYES than any acting in character.

- Speaking of Glee... A confession: I'm having a massive celeb crush on Darren Criss at the moment. I can't help it, he's just so geekyandscruffyandhotandhewritessongsohgodiwanttobakehimcookiesandthentiehimtomybedand... Um. Anyway. I may or may not have folder titled in 'Darren Criss Sex Riot' on my laptop, and these may or may not be just some of the photos from there.

IT'S A DARREN CRISS SEX RIOT )


That's it from me for now. All contributions of recs and sexy pictures will be gratefully accepted and used responsibly for the maintenance of mental health.
