snowflake_challenge 2014 - Day 9

In your own space, rec at least 3 fanworks you thought you wouldn't like (because they weren't your fandom or they pushed against your boundaries or you thought you just wouldn't be interested) but you ended up loving.

1) Need You Like Air
artwork by akamine_chan
Created for a prompt about breathplay-kink-discovery. Bandom.

I haven't been looking at artwork a lot. For me it's mostly about reading stories (says the one who's made artwork for the same gift-exchange), but because it was for a challenge I took part in myself, I wanted to take a look at everything that had been created.

The combination of powerful and sweaty performance-pictures with words that are almost like song-lyrics makes a gripping analogy to breathplay: physical, potentially dangerous and hot.

And - it made me discover A Softer World which I hadn't known before.


2) You want me to leave it there
fic by Philipa_Moss, "Queer As Folk (UK)"

It's not that I thought I would not like a story about Vince and Stuart's future, but I never thought I'd need one. Although recently, I must admit, I wondered about what Vince would make of the new Doctor Who.

But those glimpses in a future life with the same kind of humour and emotion that I remember from the original series - and yes, a mention of the new DW - are really enjoyable.
Same men, same problems - or not?



I can't really think of a third thing to rec. I'm probably not open enough to try and read outside my known comfort-zone. That's probably because there are so many great fanworks there, I can't even catch up with all my bookmarks as it is.
