clearing out some stuff from my browser, mostly from snowflake recs, I think

I Am the Night by Chash
Brooklyn Nine-Nine/DCU | 2,026 words | G | Jake Peralta
Summary: A new vigilante rises in New York City. The official position of the NYPD is that he's a criminal.
Jake Peralta thinks he needs a sweater.
+ Great ensemble care-taking fic, cute, A+ crossover.

closer by lucystonersix
Buffy the Vampire Slayer | 3:30 | PG-13 | multiship
Song: Closer by Tegan and Sara
+ All of the ships, so many.

#blessed by thehoyden
Buzzfeed RPF | 9,363 words | NC-17 | Ryan/Shane
Of course Shane would rather not work; he’d like it to be like the good old days, and who wouldn’t? But a demon’s gotta eat, and he can’t even get a discount on his rent because it turns out it’s a lot harder to influence faceless companies with ominous dreams. Ergo: gainful employment at Buzzfeed.
+ Fun. I loved this.

Love, That Loosener of Limbs by amatalefay
Doctor Who | 253 words | G | Bill Potts/Sappho
Summary: “Like, finally here's a poem that isn't just some bloke whining about how a beautiful girl won’t give him sex, and it's basically ‘sweet mother, I’m too gay to do my chores, blame Aphrodite’. Like, honestly? Most relatable thing I’ve read in years.”
Bill meets Sappho.
+ This was super cute and fun.

darkness by KatrinDepp
Doctor Who | 2:10 | PG | The Doctor
Song: Evidence by Falling Up
+ Some day when I am more over my personal hiatus from the show I will sit down and have thinky thoughts about the theme of this.

Happy Holidays, scorpling! by anonymous
Good Omens | art | G | Crowley and Aziraphale
+ exchange art for scorpling with a yet-unrevealed creator, sketchy and dreamy and lovely

Stately Homes of Wiltshire by waspabi
Harry Potter | 57,582 words | NC-17 | Harry/Draco
Summary: Malfoy Manor has mould, dry rot and an infestation of unusually historical poltergeists. Harry Potter is on the case.
+ I cannot remember if I have read this or not but I am excited about it. Plotty-looking thing! A house!

The Crossroads by The_Spoony_Bard
LOTR | art | G | Mairon and Eönwë
+ I am not a Silmarillion person. I have not read it. This is gorgeous. The ink work, and then the colour. Stunning.

"elevator music" by k8+therobot
Marvel | 3:04 | PG-13 | Steve Rogers
Song: The Girl From Ipanema by Eartha Kitt
Summary: "when she passes, I smile, but she doesn't see"
+ I love the idea behind this, and Eartha Kitt. (Still super-distracted by how much I love her, have not processed this thing.)

Judith and her Maidservant by Siria
Marvel | 1,146 words | PG-13 | Dora Skirth
Later, Dora would think back on it and realise that clinically speaking, she had died.
+ Fix it fic for the Venom film I haven't seen - satisfying and just generally awesome.

Mr. Holmes: Beekeeper by Educated inYellow
Mr. Holmes | 4:02 | PG | Sherlock Holmes
Summary:A vid exploring the themes of the film Mr. Holmes (2015), starring Ian McKellan.
Song: The Beekeeper by Dessa
+ An excellent argument for watching that film, chock full of feeling.

Bootleg Turn by leupagus
Rivers of London | 4,641 words | NC-17 | Peter/Thomas
Sahra and Jaget have taken to texting or emailing me specs of the interior of a Jaguar Mark 2 followed by a long string of question marks. It makes me wish I had an answer for them. But more than that it makes me wish I had better friends.
+ Car sex and them messing with each other a bit en route to that.

The Quiet Gentleman by Antares
Stargate: Atlantis | art | G | John/Rodney
+ Regency AU and I have nostalgia. It's great.

Linguistic Ambiguities in Vulcan Ethical Codes by elumish
Star Trek | 5,770 words | PG-13 | James T. Kirk
The thing people always forget is that it was a Vulcan ship that reached Tarsus IV first.
+ riff of lazulisong's Graduate Vulcan for Fun and Profit, secretly smart Kirk fluent in Vulcan, cute?

firefly by peradi
Star Wars | 4,483 words | PG | BB-8
Summary: Humanity is infectious, Finn makes friends with droids, and K2 cannot get any rest: the story of how Rogue One flies again.
+ Robots/humanity fan club.
