Older Favorites 11

This week, we have nine fics that are a little older. If you're newer to the fandom, maybe you've missed them. Or maybe you read these as they were being published, and it's time to revisit! In either case, check them out beneath the cut, and as always, don't forget to comment and kudos!

Attraction is just another form of gravity by Three Gremlins in a trenchcoat (201000, Explicit) Reccer's Content Notes: No Content Notes

Secret lovers overlayed with canon storyline (to a point of divergence)

Reccer says: This was THE fic that for me into SG FF. Read it once for the plot, read it a second time for the crafting. There’s an entire storyline made out of each chapter’s opening section. Heavy BDSM but it’s almost secondary to how well the plot is laid out vs canon.

I’ve been lost before by Toneofjoy (165000, Explicit) Reccer's Content Notes: No Content Notes

Climbing AU coach/student

Reccer says: Amazing writing, one of the best out there.

Two Roads Diverged by InkDippedFeathers (90000, Explicit) Reccer's Content Notes: No Content Notes

Concubine AU, Essek in over his head

Reccer says: Great writing and world building, leads into other stories and series

we learn to live with the pain, mosaic hearts broken by vagabondfirelily (5777, Teen) Reccer's Content Notes: The aftermath of something (not clarified or mattering) is omnipresent

In which Essek is injured, and both he and Caleb need to learn to recover.

Reccer says: It’s a very realistic depiction of how being hurt affects the ones around you as well, and how both parties feel guilty for feeling pain.

heir to the devil's fortune by essektheylyss (divinationwizard) (348340, Teen) Reccer's Content Notes: panic attacks, body dysmorphia, child abuse, dismemeberment

Essek uses the Transmogrification spell to disappear, and finds a tentative home in hiding as the long lost son of the Ruby of the Sea.

Reccer says: There's a mystery, intrigue, and Marion Lavorre. What's not to love?

the breath before the phrase by Kmac Katie (171000, Explicit) Reccer's Content Notes: No Content Notes

Classical music modern au

Reccer says: I have no interest in classical music at all, but I read this a couple of times per year, it’s so good

Whistle song by Chekhov (115000, Mature) Reccer's Content Notes: No Content Notes

Kid fic - the kids are wannabe assassins

Reccer says: Fun story, good writing, keeps you engaged and guessing

till human voices wake us by mousecookie (66080, Teen) Reccer's Content Notes: Graphic Depictions of Violence

The one where Caleb is a Mermaid (and Essek is still a traitor)

Reccer says: The way this AU plays with canon and characterization is so good, I love it. Also, some amazing illustrations by Saturdaysky!

the edge of the blade by jaskofalltrades (56205, Teen) Reccer's Content Notes: No Content Notes

Deirta wants Essek to get married, so he claims he's already wed - to Caleb

Reccer says: I'm a sucker for fake marriages, but there's also political machinations in here, and so much great pining!
