cold december night

author: poodleyeol (link to ao3) (also poodleyeol is me) rating: nc-17 length: 8k genre: christmas!au, office!au, fluff, smut summary: maybe sehun really is a robot, because it’s taken him way too long to realise that his irritation at chanyeol has actually been love this whole time.

read it here notes: yes, i am reccing my own fic bahaha ^^;;;;  this is slightly based off the sitcom the office, but its also christmas-y because i love. christmas. i tried to make it wholesome but then they ended up banging in the closet dont ask me how...

i'd rather stay and burn forever than find a stray heart to love

rating: nc-17 genre: angst word count: 8k side pairings: one-sided!chansoo warnings (from the author): internalized homophobia and queer angst, biting summary: and this chanyeol thing, it doesn't make much sense, considering just how much sehun likes girls

notes: this. fic. is. so. painful. but i swear it’s worth it ;-; 8k probably isn’t really that long but it feels like an eternity when you’re screaming at all the characters, but it makes the ending all the more satisfying!

i’ll drown my beliefs

author: sikkie words: 2k genre: angst..? fluff...? summary: it’s normal to look at your best friend with adoration, right? to think they look incredibly beautiful under the bright lights of the firework display? chanyeol reasons to himself that this is just yet another example of how supportive and loving their friendship is. he’s sure that the feeling is mutual, in a best friend kind of way. just bros, nothing more.

notes: this fic is so short and sweet >< in fact the length of it is perfect. chanyeol in this fic is so great.

excess baggage

author: nina16000 (link to their ao3) rating: m (on ao3) words: 13k genre: sky pirate!au (treasure planet!au??), action summary: pirate captain chanyeol visits the sky island of el dorado, searching for a legendary treasure, but ends up bringing disaster onto his ship instead.

notes: actually more platonic!chanhun, but i really enjoyed this fic so i still think it’s worth reading, the banter between chanyeol and sehun is really funny and it makes their relationship in this fic really great and interesting. very action packed, which isn’t usually something i’d go for, but in this fic it REALLY works! and the au is sooooo cool, very ‘treasure planet’ (at least i think, it’s been a while since i’ve seen that movie). the author mentioned they might make a long, multi-chaptered sequel... so fingers crossed ><

all my loving (i will send to you)

rating: pg word count: 8k summary: chanyeol's life is a repeat of grey colours and a colossal amount of paperwork.

notes: this is one of the fics that i’m most excited about reccing!! it was written for a chanhun fic fest a bunch of years ago (2015 i think?) so i’m not sure if many people have found it, but it is one of the cutest things i’ve ever read in my life. i don’t even know what else to say about it, just please do yourself the favour of reading it, now, i promise it’ll make your life better ;U;

notes: technically this is a series of fics, but linking each one would take forever because there’s SO MANY (i’m pretty sure there’s more coming, too ;U;) these are all so fluffy and so cute, i’m up to about the 4th or 5th one, but i’m loving them all so much that i know that they are all going to be amazing ^^ and also... it’s christmas, so i love it. i especially wanted to rec this now, because it’s ongoing and i hope people are watching out for it, and because it’s december so it’s the best time to be reading some christmas fics ;U;

it’s the season of giving (so give me attention)

author: kaisoochateau (link to their ao3) word count: 12k genre: crack, fluff, christmas!au rating: pg-13 (for sexual references) summary: sehun and jongin are crushing on two of the workers at the mall’s christmas display, and there’s only three weeks until the season’s over and they won’t get to stare at their tight festive costumes anymore.

notes: so it’s only fitting that the first fic i rec is this... this was my xmas present a few years ago from my girlfriend, and it’s still... probably my favourite chanhun fic of all time (mostly ‘cause she knows exactly what i like in fics.. ehehe oops). it’s funny, it’s soft and fluffy, sehun is hilarious, chanyeol is incredibly charming, and most importantly, it’s CHRISTMAS~!
