Is there a fic out there when after season 4 Steve doesn't trust/react well to Joyce and Hopper? I just think that him being the oldest and real adult left in Hawkins to deal with and protect the kids would mess him up a bit.

Like, I understand Joyce left because she wanted to protect her blood children and El, but none of the other parents are read in on the situation. She left the rest of the kids after another super traumatic experience where multiple people they knew and cared about died and only Steve, Nancy, and Robin could support them. Not to knock Nancy and Robin, but the show doesn't show them supporting the kids the way Steve does, so it all ended up on his shoulders.

Add in the fact Joyce up and abandons her kids when she learns about Hopper being alive, and then even more terrible things happen, and I feel like Steve would not trust the adults anymore and truly resist ans get upset when they try to parent him or take care of *his* kids.

So I'd anyone has fic recs or wants to write one... let me know...

Ok so it literally took me less than 1 full episode of The Punisher in order to understand Frank's appeal, so I'll be needing fic recs! What y'all got for me, Frankophiles?

How can I find good Hal Jordan-centric fics that are not primarily romances?

The Hal Jordan-centric tag on AO3 has 20 fics, most of which appear to be about pairing him off if the tags and summary are anything to go by.

If I go in the Hal Jordan tag and filter out the common ships and sort by kudos, the first three pages are entirely made up of Justice League Meets The Batfam and a few Batman Identity Reveals. (After three pages I gave up.) Don’t get me wrong, they’re great fun, but not what I’m looking for.

Does anyone have any recommendations? (For the avoidance of doubt, I don’t necessarily mind background ships, I just don’t want them to be the main point.)

I think there's 2 things that have kept me from reading IWTV show fanfic and/or QotD-informed Devil's Minion fic, despite the fact I'm really excited to see where the show takes that ship and the fact the Vampire Chronicles used to be my entire personality growing up:

Adjusting to a prose voice for IWTV characters that's not Anne Rice. Thing is, I used to read Vampire Chronicles fic back before it was banned on FFN! But it's been so long, and it's been so forbidden for so long that it feels weird even thinking to go looking for it and, honestly, Anne Rice's prose style is very accessible to fic readers, that it's a little like having your favorite fic writer in a fandom and then it's just :-/ not all that interesting to try to go read the same characters in someone else's voice, let alone sifting through anything less that NYT Bestseller-adjacent levels of prose. Basically, wherever am I going to find either someone who perfectly captures the show voices OR perfectly captures the actual author's fanfic-adjacent voice?

How to say this gently.... fanfic has a tendency to soften certain characters and polish off the rough edges? In particular with Daniel/Armand, I'm really not all that interested in fluff or soft fic or even get together fic at this point since that's nowhere near where they're at in the show. I kinda just want to see them hashing out all the decades of drama between them more than I actually want to see them hook up just yet? Like, I think there's some hints, if you squint, that Old Daniel is attracted to Armand, but if they did have a relationship, hooo boy, holy shit that means Armand (probably) non-consensually wiped Daniel's mind of what might have been one of the most significant relationships and most significant periods in his life. It means he's been living a lie since the goddamn 70s. Like... that's still lightyears away from a "romance" just yet, that's goddamn knock-down, drag-out, screaming fight that needs to happen before Daniel would begin to worry about things like, "Do I find this person attractive? Do I want to be on the same continent with them, let alone in the same room?"

And the thing is, that is the kind of fic I'd be interested in reading for show-version Daniel/Armand! If anyone has a rec for a much rougher, sharper, more conflict-driven taken on Daniel learning that 70's Devil's Minion happened (all except for him getting turned) that actually includes Eric Bogosian's trademark tough talk with Armand and his take-no-shit attitude, I'd love to read it.

But at this point I'm almost afraid to even go look because so much of the fandom stuff I've seen on Tumblr around Daniel/Armand is (understandably! fandom tends to write what is missing from canon!) more established relationship or fluffy or even flirty but like I don't even see them as flirty at this point? Except in the most hostile hate-fucking of manners from Daniel and the most otherworldly disconnected way from Armand where even he can't articulate what he wants (honestly, what does Armand want? Does Armand know what Armand wants?? I think the most appealing thing about Devil's Minion is that Armand seems like he can be his own weird self around Daniel, especially in QotD but it feels almost like baby steps in terms of his actual sense of self??).

Anyway, this has gotten away from me, but tl;dr if anyone has like really really tonally show or book aligned IWTV fanfic they'd like to rec I'm all ears! Even as I'm still immensely, fundamentally weirded out at being able to read Vampire Chronicles fanfic again after 20 years ^^;;

Looking for Fic Recs

Been wanting to get back into fic for weeks, seeking recs to get me back into the swing of things

Fandoms: Hermitcraft, Life Series (all canon seasons), GIGS/Phasmophobia-verse

Any hard limits? Cheating/aftermath of, Sexual Assault/aftermath of, pregnancy of any form

Ships I'd Prefer to read? Scar/Grian is my OTP, but I'll take most anything! I'll even read fics with 0 shipping at all

Ships I'd Prefer NOT to read? Bdubs/Etho and Grian/Mumbo (<-this includes triads/polyships with them together as well)

Fic Site of Choice? Ao3

AUs I Like? I'm down with basically anything! I like canon compliant, canon divergent, full fledged AUs... I'm weirdly into Demon AUs rn but I doubt there are a lot of those for these fandoms lol. So I'm good with anything ^-^

But I am definitely a slvt for AUs with lots of worldbuilding and/or adaptations of other shows/media using these characters, so if you've got those, feel free to slide em over

Best Way to Give These Recs:

-Reblog with the name, title, and site in the text of the post, and/or the link to said fic in the text of the post

-Reply with name, title, and site of fic

-Send an ask with the link and/or the name, title, and site

(You can technically put the info in the tags, but it's easier for me to read and find when in the actual text of a reblog, if that's okay)

[its-muffin-tyme]

why is it so hard to find pearl and keralis friendship fics :(((((

[pacificwaternymph]

I’ve discovered the concept of AUs where the Dowds are a crime family and now DESPERATELY need recs for that

Preferably ones where the batfamily are also a crime family but I will take anything.

[versasfanficwastedump]

hi beloveds: can i pls have your favorite BatDad fics? please and thank you <3

[emry-stars-art]

regarding your recent post about raven!neil, do you have an good fanfics on ao3 that you would recommend? i am absolutely infatuated with raven!neil and this would soothe my soul 😌

I'm gonna outsource this question automatically lol unfortunately I don't! Not for a lack of them, there's no way there's not great fics out there, but because I, once again, am not a good member of fandom and don't read a lot of fic myself 😅

HOWEVER I did start reading Black As Is The Raven, He'll Get A Partner by nekojita (I think was the user) like FOREVER ago and I never finished it but what I read was really intriguing and well put together! (To be clear it wasn't the fics fault I stopped reading, that was just me putting it down to focus on whatever else I had going on at that time for a bit and never picking it back up like an idiot.) As far as I read it was Jean and Neil actually in the Nest at Edgar Allen, I can't remember off the top of my head if it gets into post-raven stuff

As for other fics the best I can do is recommend scrolling through aftgficrec's blog and checking the tags for it, and also whatever anyone in the replies/etc might recommend! I have wonderful followers and friends with impeccable taste so hopefully something there will speak to you as well :) good luck on your search!!

Seeking hannigram fic recs where Will and Hannibal physically fight. Pre or post fall welcome, preferably no Will/Alana beyond what’s canon (just not my jam, sorry!) Anyone got anything?
