any nurseydex fics on ur mind lately? I find myself thinking about them more lately but seem to have read everything for them!
to be honest i’ve not been reading too many new fics lately, i’ve mainly been writing. hopefully some of my own fics will be out there and on your mind early next year!
but here’s some from the amazing folks on this here site that stay on my mind. most of them aren’t new, i’m not very good at keeping up to date, but hopefully there’s something new for you here that you’ll love!
under the cut because this got long <3
a comprehensive guide to not talking about it by @alocalband
Nursey tried to kiss him.
Derek Nurse tried to kiss him.
The more Dex thinks about it, the more absolutely ridiculous it sounds.
one of my favourite fics of all time. just perfect. read anything by them actually, they’re all brilliant! this one though, i revisit it so often i could recite it by now.
to be alone with you also by alocalband
Will and Derek spend their junior year learning how to live together, learning how to be friends, and, eventually, figuring out that they'd like to be more.
im not going to list all of their fics (even though i could) but this one needs listing. always on my mind.
marie, hold on tight (and down we went) by @petedavidsonscock
Nursey says, “I’m melancholic as fuck right now, bros.”
Chowder opens his mouth to prompt him to continue, but Dex elbows him and mutters, “Don’t encourage him.”
short but so, so sweet. they’re best friends!!! also poor chowder. his endless over it-ness is one of my favourite nurseydex tropes
counting stars (what we could be) also by petedavidsonscock
Nursey has spent the last four years pretending to believe in astrology to annoy Dex. But with graduation coming up, the bit has to come to an end. Luckily, Dex is probably going to take the news in a really chill, normal, casual way.
this made me laugh out loud. nursey would totally do this and it would absolutely play out in this exact way. hilarious
in front of the same bathroom mirror by @geniusorinsanity
It's not surprising that sharing a room changes things, but neither of them expect the most important conversations in their strange, awkward friendship to happen in their shared bathroom.
(Or: five conversations Dex and Nursey have in a shared bathroom, and one in bed.)
UGH! just something about nursey and dex learning to live alongside each other and talking about the important things and being BEST FRIENDS. and kissing. obviously. this is another fic i reread every month or so
too much (extra) by @denois / @sexydexynurse
Dex nodded, not moving his gaze from the path in front of them. "Well, if there's anything I can do to help, I've got your back."
Snorting, Nursey's mouth let out the first words he thought without his permission. "Not much you can do unless you're going to date me."
i was smiling all the way through this and so i think more people need to read it. it’s super cute. dex wooing nursey is honestly one of my fave things because he deserves it!!!!
kiss my chapped lips and call me yours by @omgdexnursey
Dex prefers things that are easy, simple, and straightforward.
Nursey is none of those things.
angst warning, but also CUTE WARNING. this is a really sweet story. because nursey is SO MUCH and dex doesn’t get it until he does. but them learning to take care of each other and being soft… i need a minute
i’m sinking fast (it’s alright)
Dex blinks up at the ceiling a few times, trying to reckon with himself and the constant loop of what are we doing what are we doing what are we doing spinning through his dehydrated brain.
When he turns his head, Nursey's already dozing off. Dex sighs, gazing back up at the ceiling, puzzled by the warm press of Nursey’s leg against his, the very insistence of them sharing a bed.
Friends don’t do this, he thinks.
the character development in this is just. i love it. the journey through the seasons, the passage of time… gorgeous
i’m a fire and i’ll keep your brittle heart warm by @jennybeantime
It's senior year and No, Dex is Not attracted to Nursey and No, he is Not going to do anything about it.
use a taylor song as your fic title and you’ve got me. obsessed with how soppy and cute this story is. obsessed with dex having absolutely zero self control. obsessed!!!!
can’t hide from you like i hide from myself by @andtimestoodstill
In which Dex has only applied to jobs in cities that Nursey has applied to grad schools in. They are Not Together.
oh gosh, their banter and interactions in this are so charming, chowder and the others included. even the arguing (there’s arguing!! angst warning!!!). i really enjoyed this, i never read much later fic but this is a great example. adorable
