Sorry this is a few days late, I had the draft of my 2024 fic reading stats almost ready to go on Jan 1 and only had to add in a couple final numbers, but I wasn't as prepared with my Dec recs post and in between holiday stuff and spotty internet, I didn't manage to put it together in time.

Anyway, here's some of the fics I enjoyed in December:( MCU and Enchanted Forest Chronicles )

Here are some of the fics I enjoyed in January:( Beyond Evil, Kinnporsche, Until We Meet Again/Between Us, Fire Island, Knives Out!, K-pop RPF, MCU )

Just experimenting with using Markdown syntax in Dreamwidth via some quick and dirty omegaverse recs. I don't read tons of omegaverse, but when I do I tend to favor:

detailed or unusual worldbuilding
a light-hearted tone
good smut
some combination of the above

( MDZS, Marvel, Yuri on Ice )

I'm a little bit early in my time zone, but I figure it's already the 14th in European and Asian-Pacific timezones, so💕Happy Valentine's Day💕if you celebrate. In honor of the holiday, and since I've been picking through my vids a bunch recently, I decided to share ten of my favorite ship vids for ten of my favorite ships.

As you scan the list below, you'll note that not all of these ships had happy endings and the content of the vids does reflect that. They are all love stories, but not necessarily all fluffy or cute ones.

⚠️ for potential visual triggers, spoilers, and canon-typical violence and blood in some of the vids

None of these vids contain voice or sound clips from the source material.

( On to the vids! 8 fandoms, 10 ships )

Happy Lunar New Year! 🧧🎆🧨 Here are some of the fics I enjoyed in January:( MDZS, Cherry Magic, Painter of the Night, MCU )

I enjoy fanfics in which an author with very specific knowledge uses that knowledge to bring their stories to life with interesting and immersive details. It always reminds me of that famous George R.R. Martin quote:

A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies. The man who never reads lives only one.

I find it really fun to glimpse another life like this. I'm not sure if there's a name for this particular genre of fic, but it's similar to the Take Your Fandom To Work challenge (AO3 tag) and that's how I usually refer to it, although the specialty knowledge doesn't have to be work-related and can be from a hobby, interest, or some other source.

I recced a few fics like this back in July and August, and will rec another in my upcoming October monthly recs post, so I decided to make another themed rec post to gather them all in one spot, and to add a few more from past fandoms. I'll add to this post as I read more (or remember more) examples of this genre.

( Step into the world of Ren Faires, art conservators, marine researchers, architecture students, fashion designers, and more )

Here are some of the fics I enjoyed this month:( MDZS, Word of Honor, Nirvana in Fire, MCU )
