Snowflake Challenge: Day 2
This one is a little rough for me, because (as I mentioned in the last entry) I've been reading more books and less fic. This is what AO3 bookmarks are for, I suppose. ;)
Day 2
Rec at least three fanworks that you didn’t create.
Okay, it's confession time. Although my primary fandom is The Flash I don't... read any fic. I really want to! And if you read fic in that fandom and want to leave me recs that would be great!
change my friends to enemies (show me how it's all my fault) by saekhwa.
This was written years and years ago, but it still gives me happiness. an X-Men(First Class)/Losers crossover in which Roque gets mutant powers and a new family with the X-men. It's Roque/Armando and has healing and redemption and Roque fighting to let people back in. Dark stuff happens, but there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Warnings are at the end of the fic.
Drunk Minds Speak Sober Hearts by m4x_87.
One of the few finished coldflash stories I have bookmarked on AO3. Barry gets whammied by Rainbow Raider, but it's lust instead of anger. This gets explicit near the end, and tbh the first chapter isn't that great until about half-way through? But it has solid Cisco voice, a charmingly scheming Leonard Snart, and a Barry Allen who knows exactly how to get under his skin. I re-read this today for this rec list, and it still made me laugh.
those three words over even "I love you" by QLaLa.
My second coldflash recommendation. Set during the episode "Family of Rogues", Barry decided to go undercover on a heist with Lewis and Leonard Snart. Leonard had feelings about this. There's snark and sexytimes and accidental feelings. It's lovely. Also explicit. Read this if you haven't already, you won't be disappointed.
For my last rec, I really have to go with The Night War: 60th Anniversary Edition by praximeter.
If there is one MCU fic that should be required reading, it's this one. Bucky Barnes' wartime memoir, and—guys, guys, just read it. It's painful and genuine and it's about loss and hope and love and how war changes people. It technically says it's Steve/Bucky, but honestly I consider this to be one of the most beautiful gen novels I have ever read.
