I love him and Derek being childhood friends. It's a super cool premise and written beautifully.

There's a lot to love about this fic, but the pining Derek is pretty much the best thing ever. I love that Team Papa Stillinski is also pro-Derek. I'm a sucker for magical Stiles, and the pack that the author invented (plus Derek with cubs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) is perfect. (Also, I've not read a lot where Stiles is an artist, and I fucking *adore* it.)

I don't often directly post the author's summary, but I'm pretty sure for this fic it's illegal not to: In which Kirk is surprised, and Spock learns his lessons well. For this prompt on the kink meme: Kirk's sexual prowess is legendary, right? So really, it was only a matter of time before sombody started marketing it. While on shoreleave, Jim discovers the best selling dildo to ever hit this quadrent of the galaxy; "The Kirk". That's right ladies and gentlbeings, you too can now have your very own Captain-Kirk-Cock.

God, I love this fandom.

(I also recorded a podfic if you're interested. :D)

This fic is fucking *hysterical*. Like, I was wheezing when I read it. (I mean, I broke my 'not on ao3 rule'... again! (and yes, I have a pdf if you prefer that. DM me!) I want to tell you about how in character everything is but honestly, I'm still laughing too much to really go too in-depth.

I don't know that I've ever rec'd a podfic before, but Rose is a delight in all her fandoms. (She has over 700 works posted on AO3). If you like podfics at all, and you haven't heard of her, you're doin' it wrong!) It feels a little odd to wax poetic about someone's voice, but when you listen to her Stiles and her Derek, you'll know exactly what I mean. The original fic is amazing, but Rose's recoding brings different nuances and aspects to the forefront than I would normally notice when I read. I have a helluva commute and have made my way through all her Teen Wolf stuff and am working on the Marvel. :)

I have been meaning to rec this for a while, but I kept forgetting the title.  This is a fusion with Sleepy Hollow, but you literally need to know nothing about it to understand the fic; the author has done a beautiful job of making sure everything works really well.  Mutual pining out the wazoo, some Jealous Derek, the absolutely must-have bed sharing, and as a bonus, Lydia being the BAMF goddess that we all love to read. Plus, road trip fics are my absolute kryptonite.

This is just super cute. I love when they're on a stakeout, but this is the MOST Stiles stakeout you can ever imagine. Derek is growly but Stiles perseveres.

Accidental baby acquisition!  Stiles opens the door to find a baby and it goes about as well as you'd expect, by which I mean that Derek's biological clock explodes when he sees Stiles cuddling this adorable baby, and Stiles is right there with him. Trust me there are all the 'Derek is cuddling with wee baby' moments your heart can handle.  There is a bit of angst but a very happy ending, so worry not, friends!

This fic made me literally facepalm and cringe with secondhand embarrassment for poor Jim.  I know it's pretty popular, so chances are you've already seen a rec, but I had to throw my hat in the ring. Jim has a brain injury and he has no filter when he calls people nicknames. Rand's made me laugh out loud. This whole fic is cute and adorable, and you won't regret reading it.

I was innocently clicking through the 'versatile Derek' tag and stayed for the puns. Stiles is super awkward, as we all expect, but he just tries so darn hard. Derek is Not Amused, only he sort of is. They meet when Stiles is 15, and meet again when they're both grown up and it's just this friends-to-fuck buddies- to lovers thing that makes my Grinchy-heart grow two sizes bigger every time I read it.

Whump! Spock does something and Jim misunderstands and the whump isn't just from the bad guys. I kinda wanted to smuuush their faces together and have them kiss. This features an extremely well-done Spock and the ending really sticks.

I had a request for a Hawke/Fenris, and I haven't forgotten, but I had to bring this beautiful fic to your attention. There are a lot of reasons that I love this fic. I love the language. I know that seems a weird thing to fixate on, but while the plot is basically the two of them in the snow, the way it's described is just beautiful. Hawke is kind of an asshole- true to form- but he's also in love with his mage, and that comes through in everything he does.  Anders is just... he's able to appreciate and take beauty in things that most of the people of Thedas would take for granted, and it's just... ugggh. I love it so much!

kayson || Time in Company || Teen ||IronStrange ||https://archiveofourown.org/works/36044875#main I have such a crazy need for Tony trying to awkwardly make things better that is probably an issue, but fortunately, I also have amazingly adorable little fics like this to feel it out. I love Tony as a mentor to Peter, and I lost my damn mind when Stephen kind of casually does the one up one down when Tony visits to make sure he's not harmed. This is super fluffy (as much as those two can be fluffy) and just an all 'round feel-good fic. #kayson #mcu #marvel #ironstrange #tonystark #stephenstrange #ironman #drstrange #fanfiction #fanficrecommendation #ficrecs #ao3 https://www.instagram.com/p/Cbdv7O6syiF/?utm_medium=tumblr

Each fic works as a standalone(anywhere from 3k to 6k), but altogether it's over 100k.

It starts fairly innocuously- Stiles has a panic attack and Derek helps him through it. But there is a whole lot more here- the start of a relationship, from it's teeny kernel of maybe to both of them being idiots for each other- well. Watching it unfold is just an amazing experience. It has a slightly different take on pack bonding, magical Stiles and has some of the best tropes (if you've followed me you know my faves by now!)

IvanW ||A Clue || Mature ||Star Trek|| https://archiveofourown.org/works/37192744 Okay so yes I'm reccing this because I prompted it but that doesn't negate the fact that this is perfect! I love love looooooooooooooooove jealous Spock, and this one has it very well done. I guess even Vulcans can eventually be thwacked with the clue stick. 🥰 Tags and whatnot included after the title pic! #spirk #spacehusbands #kirkxspock #thyla #startrekfanfiction #fanfictionrecs #kxs, #trekfic, #spirkfanfiction #StarTrekReboot #JamesTKirk #Spock #SchnTgaiSpock #spirkedit #spirkfanfic #startrek #ao3 #vulcans https://www.instagram.com/p/CboLiQNNMbf/?utm_medium=tumblr

kianspo || Papers in the Roadside || Explicit ||Kirk/Spock || https://archiveofourown.org/works/270668 I don't often read AUs, but this is one of them that I truly enjoyed. I'm a sucker for a First Time fic, and this one is put together so well that you hardly notice it's not set on the Enterprise. Everyone is delightfully in character, and the pining (omg so. much. pining.) between Jim and Spock is perfect.

I've reread this fic a few times and every time I pick up something new. I love that Cullen is so, so far from perfect, and I love how much he loves his Inquisitor.
