June 2024 Fanfic Recs
Here are some of the fics I enjoyed in June:
Beyond Evil Fic Recs
grand days, Lee Dongskik/Han Juwon, 7k, explicit
Word of Honor Fic Recs
The bread of strangers, Ye Baiyi/Xie Wang, 24k, explicit
K-pop RPF
roll for initiative, Kim Kibum/Choi Minho, 4k, explicit
Overall, I had another slow reading month and felt like I was having trouble finding new stuff that piqued my interest, so I ended up doing some rereading, including the least of it (ATEEZ OT8, 15k, explicit, originally recced July 2023), two bad cats (Word of Honor, Yexie and Wenzhou, 6k, teen, originally recced April 2023), and you're like heaven to touch (Yuri on Ice, Victuuri, 3k, mature, originally recced in December 2021).
Happy reading!
Beyond Evil Fic Recs
grand days, Lee Dongskik/Han Juwon, 7k, explicit
The woes of having a visibly younger partner—one who’d been diligently schooled in a foreign country, was fluent in no less than four languages, and in an overwhelming gesture of sincerity had publicized the evidence that brought down his own father and given Lee Dongsik back his life—was that the locals gossiped about them incessantly.
Word of Honor Fic Recs
The bread of strangers, Ye Baiyi/Xie Wang, 24k, explicit
“You’ll be embarrassed when you remember all this, later,” the kunze says. “Get up and come with me.”
“I’ll do no such thing,” Baiyi insists. He crosses his arms over his chest. “Remove yourself from my mountain.”
“Your mountain?”
“Yes. Get your own,” Baiyi says.
[An omergaverse au wherein Ye Baiyi travels to his own future, and is surprised at what he finds there.]

They were all figuring this out as they went along. That didn't stop Kibum from wanting to flip the table every time Minho opened his mouth.

WOH ending spoiler
I have never really forgiven him for his role in Gu Xiang and Cao Weining's deaths.
Yet he's still such an interesting character that I'm always very intrigued by the fix-it possibilities that arise if he can be persuaded to make different choices.
I had the same reaction to Yexie as you. They'd make such an odd couple, but I can see the potential there! If you tweak canon events just right...
Anyway, this particular fic was written by an author who's written a number of my favorite fics across multiple different fandoms. She fell really hard for Xie Wang in the drama, and has written more than 20 fics about him, most of them Yexie. I've enjoyed a bunch of them and recced several in my Yexie tag.
Actually, looking through it quickly just now, it looks like ALL the fics I've recced in that tag were written by her. 😂
