bokuaka fic recs
only one person asked for this, but that's enough for me! however, compiling this list has also given me the chance to locate fics i read and loved during quarantine but did not, for whatever reason, bookmark or otherwise save...
i will say that my past experiences with 'dead' fandoms has made me perhaps a little too forgiving of blips in characterization, but i genuinely enjoy/ed reading these gems
all recs are complete
hit-never-miss authors
norio
mocaw
mystictwirl
canon compliant
soft blue by graninlynch (g ∣ ~6k words). akaashi can draw well and bokuto finds out in an invasive way.
slow on the uptake by dalyeau (m ∣ ~1k words). akaashi realizes his boyfriend is hot. pwp but it's so beautifully written it doesn't feel that way. this author is very popular, too; however, i haven't read too many of their other works!
denouement by ftld (t ∣ ~9k words). akaashi's struggles with coming out to his parents about his established relationship with bokuto.
wisdom (perception) check by allicanseeispink (t ∣ ~12k words). an incredibly lovely piece wherein bokuto watches a movie and introspection occurs. this is part of a series that i've yet to read, but i read and understood this as a stand-alone fic. wonderful authorial voice. everyone should read it.
the strange music of your heart by caniculeo (t ∣ ~18k words). akaashi falls first. i must say, i love love love the fukurodani interactions in this one.
alternate universe
what a hoot by moonyfest (au - college/university & wrong number ∣ t ∣ ~2k words). delightful little chat fic.
red tattoo by choir (au - soulmates ∣ t ∣ ~2k words). soulmate-identifying marks but with a twist! platonic kuroaka and minor kurodai.
running, running, running by deusreks (au - archery club ∣ t ∣ ~4k words). a lovely get-together piece.
it's a miracle when our worlds collide by darlingwendy (au - soulmates ∣ nr ∣ ~6k words). oh nooo i sped past you on my way to work but you're my soulmate :((
first train home by marras (au - ghost & age changes ∣ t ∣ ~10k words). akaashi takes the train, and an apparition sits beside him. poignant but beautiful.
never bleed, never grow by sketchedsmiles (au - bodyswap ∣ g ∣ ~27k words). a glorious bokuaka & iwaoi body swap.
static by twinkrevali (au - robots & androids ∣ g ∣ ~8k words). i think about this fic way too much...bokuto is the engineer, and akaashi is the android. kuroken sequel and bokuroo prequel.
quiet by silvercistern (au - fairytale ∣ e ∣ ~41k words). as the author describes, "a meiji-era retelling of the fairytale the six swans." this writer is also very popular, as well as the story. but if you're into the fairytale/fantasy scene and haven't read this one, it's a delight.
right in the head by mysecretfanmoments (au - zombie apocalypse ∣ e ∣ ~52k words). bokuaka against zombies.
the hands we're given by lessonsfrommoths (au - zombie apocalypse ∣ m ∣ ~37k words). also bokuaka against zombies. this one becomes plot heavy and is very inclusive of other characters. it's part of a hq!! vs zombie universe/series, and there is a sequel to this specific piece that is ~70k words.
