snowflake_challenge - Day 13
Post a rec for at least three fanworks that you did not create. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.
What have I read recently (i.e. last year) that impressed me or made an impact?
1) "
Document" by azurejay (and chimeras)
Bandom, Fall Out Boy
23.910 words
Summary:
The one where Patrick is not a girl.I read this after I'd seen a documentary about a trans tenager, and lots of the personal subjects of that doc I found in that fic again. Combined with brilliant writing and "boys on tour" I enjoyed reading it very much.
2) "
That one regret is you" by thescrewtapedemos
Bandom, Panic At The Disco
13.969 words
Summary:
There’s a witch living way out in the woods (that’s Spencer) and there’s someone running blindly through said woods (that’s Brendon) and that’s about where the similarity to a fairytale ends (there’s a cauldron but Spencer only uses it to make soup so Brendon’s pretty sure it doesn’t count).Citing my own comment: "Your summary had me already, but then your story turned out not only funny, but also heart-wrenching and really lovely.
I'm glad I found it."
3) "
Six Years On" by speakingwosound (sev313)
One Direction (Band)
46.582 words
Summary:
All it takes is Harry standing in his doorway and Louis remembers, in technicolor, why he’s spent so long being angry and guilty. Because the alternative – the bone-deep, missing-a-lung, constant ache of missing him – is unbearable.
Six years after One Direction breaks up, Harry wants to publish a tell-all book.Yes, my journey through AO3 from author to author to author's bookmarks has also lead me to One Direction fic. Although I'm not keen on their music, only know about three songs, have avoided to look at many pictures online, I enjoyed reading some of the fics. After all they're a - erm, a GROUP NOT A BAND (my pet-peeve) and the touring-, gang-mentality-, found-family tropes are all in there.
This is a future-fic with lots of pining, misunderstandings and feelings, ending in a three-way relationship that really appealed to me.
[insert witty concluding statement here - today I don't seem to able to write them - see also last posts.]
