Day 10
In your own space, share your love for a trope, cliché, kink, motif, or theme. (Or a few!) Tell us what makes it work for you, and why it appeals to you so much. Talk about what you like to see in fanworks featuring that theme most. Feel free to include recs and examples!


I don't know if this actually qualifies as any of these, but some of my favorite things in fics include a) maintaining friendships (because I feel this way in RL about significant others and friends), b) when there is no bashing of the other half of a canon pair for the sake of the ship (like, Tony and Pepper can have a good break up, Pepper doesn't have to be written as a shrew just for Tony and Steve to be together) and c) when there is no friendship/character bashing either (I consider this separate from b mostly because of Teen Wolf fandom - too many anti-Scott fics mixed with Sterek).

this got a tad long )

Day 6

Leave feedback for a fanwork. Or multiple fanworks. It can be as simple as I liked this to a detailed list of all the things you loved about the fanwork. The key is to leave some sort of feedback.

If you've already left feedback in the course of a previous challenge, it totally counts. But you're free to leave more feedback.

Afterwards, leave a comment in this post with the equivalent of "I did it!" If you feel so inclined, leave a link to the fanwork you left feedback for so others can check it out.


[personal profile] jainas had the brilliant idea of posting links to every fanwork they leave feedback on for the duration of the challenge so I'm gonna do that, too. I'm going to start with the ones I've left comments for since Christmas. Check back for more fic links!

I Know Where Babies Come From, Derek (Sterek)
-->I'm pretty sure this fandom destroyed my list of nope kinks.

The One Where Stiles Vets Derek's Girlfriends (Sterek)
-->Yankees fans need not apply.

Treading Water+sequels (Derek/Stiles/Allison)
-->How am I this late to the party on this fic? I need more of this threesome. This is also like, the HOTTEST fic I may have read, ever.

Orbiter Dictum (Steve Rogers/Tony Stark)
-->A little slice of life with the boys discovering each other's feelings.

you're a taker, devil's maker John Constantine, American Gods crossover, genfic
-->This makes me crave all the Hellblazer/AG crossovers. It's also making me crave a whole 'verse expanded upon by this author.

Time, Gentlemen John Constantine, genfic
-->This felt like I was reading a small Hellblazer comic, or a plot of a Constantine (2014) ep.

Devil's Bargain (John Constantine/Lucifer Morningstar)
-->Look, I just need all the fics with this pairing. It's the perfect crossover. You know John would fuck the devil. And Lucy could NOT pass up John's sass, body, or penchant for sinning.

Mokokaikala (McDanno)
-->A steamy build up that went from 0-60 real quick and perfectly.

Taxpayer Popcorn, or How To Catch Up In One Easy Step (McDanno)
-->ADORABLE. I love clueless boys. And then boys not being clueless anymore. And Kono and Chin are also hilarious.

Don't Turn Me Home Again (McDanno)
-->This one requires a little suspension of belief (i.e. some mystical elements) but it's really powerful, seeing Danny's feelings for Steve and a what-if 'verse where Steve is less well-adjusted after everything. Also, I love how the author allows Danny to grow, too, in his relationship with Rachel. It's really powerful, sweet, and emotional with a happy ending.

All the Girls Out On the Stoop (McDanno)
-->For the love of god and all that is holy (or not) GO READ THIS. I now need Veela blood as a plot device in all my fandoms. It's hilarious, smartly written, Kono and Chin are written wonderfully and the build up is SO INTENSE. And the payoff!

the closer i am to finding God (you're a miracle to me) (Superman/Batman) DCCU 'verse
-->Body worship porn but with feelings and fantastic characterization and stunning descriptors.

the curve of your neck (like an invitation) (Superman/Batman) DCCU 'verse
-->This is some A+ BDSM. I've read it twice in 24 hours. So good.

Day 3

In your own space, post recs for at least three fanworks that you did not create.


Well, I'm going to start with, you can check out my tags and any tag with "recs" will send you to a page with recs based on a fandom, pairing, and/or type of rec. I'll say I haven't updated them since the exodus of LJ so I'm sure there are a lot of broken links, but, find a fandom you like and check them out!

But I'm also going to list three specific ones.

Since The X-Files has returned, I present the fic that is canon in my head and how the mytharc SHOULD have ended: Mesabi Ferrum

I've recently been re-obsessed with Sterek fics and can't stop reading them so here's a story I've more recently read and bookmarked: Electricity in the Contact

And finally, just because, the very first fic I bookmarked on AO3. Why yes, this is the perfect OT3 fic for an OT3 I shipped LONG before knowing what an OT3 was, aka Cosmo, Dan, and Kathy from Singin' in the Rain. The characterization is spot on: And Write That Symphony
