DCU
Bird Calls by tomuri

This is such a nice moment of connection between Dinah and Babs, and I really like how specific to the comics this fic is

Potter’s Magic by Siderea
https://archiveofourown.org/works/68155796

If you like outsider pov, case fic, and Tris as a teacher, this is the fic for you!


Our Flag Means Death
These are all podfics recorded by peasina! I love podfics, I get to walk around with the fics and see them in a new way.

Podfic of: I Need You To Do The Things I Can’t (fic by kingstoken)
https://archiveofourown.org/works/57742792
“What the fuck type of question is that, Edward?”
“An easy enough one to answer, I should think.”
“Fine. It’s my fucking job to keep you alive.”
“Is it?”
After Izzy is injured during a raid, Ed reminds him who he belongs to. Set during the time between seasons 1 and 2. Ed/Izzy

Podfic of: the warmth of your doorways (fic by dinoromance89)
https://archiveofourown.org/works/57743326
Ed still got it! He is definitely going to kill Stede Bonnet and take his place. He needs his first mate by his side. Everything will work out just fine.
(An Izzy POV missing scene at the end of Episode 4 “Discomfort in a married state”) Ed/Izzy

Podfic of: seek not to alter (fic by redshift)
https://archiveofourown.org/works/58310725
Ed finds himself on the wrong side of some unnatural fuckery. Izzy's there too, but not the Izzy he saw before he last closed his eyes; this Izzy is young, wary, and desperately familiar. Ed/Izzy

Podfic of: Mull It Over (fic by sweatervest)
https://archiveofourown.org/works/67973431
The attraction that fizzles between Izzy and Lucius is no secret. Lucius might leave well enough alone, if not for last year when he woke up the morning after Calypso’s Birthday with Izzy’s lipstick smeared over his mouth.
At the market, Izzy haggles for mulled wine spices. Lucius tags along to negotiate a different sort of trade. Izzy/Lucius

Podfic of: Come on, baby, light my plausible deniability (fic by halfeatenmoon)
https://archiveofourown.org/works/67972576
"Anyone ever tell you that's a filthy habit?"
Izzy and Lucius have a smoke together and talk about self-acceptance and being big old queers, and then Lucius burns Izzy with his cigarette. Izzy/Lucius

Podfic of: Five Times Izzy Hands Was Held By Fang (fic by OzzyFeet)
https://archiveofourown.org/works/68188761
...and one time he did the holding.

Today's rec-cember theme is less than 1000 words

DCU (1 fic)
Aerie by irrelevant
https://archiveofourown.org/works/136763
Characters: Jason Todd and Barbara Gordon
Bird of prey.
Exploration of the Babs + Jason, and a what-could-have-been future for them working together


Formula 1 RPF (6 fics)
a crowd by hushpuppybaby
https://archiveofourown.org/works/59866645
Pairing: Lewis/Seb, Lewis/Seb/Charles
Lewis smells different today.
It’s not his usual cologne, but feels familiar anyway.
Charles can almost place it, except he can’t step close and sniff, that’d be weird and worse, obvious.
Charles's longing for Seb and Lewis and Seb/Lewis is delicious

title traditions by trailsofpaper
https://archiveofourown.org/works/50880838
Pairing: Seb-centric gangbang
"It’s tradition,” Michael said into his ear, and Sebastian could do anything, would do anything.
After Seb wins her first championship, he is introduced to a tradition :)

transforming the latent by floretum
https://archiveofourown.org/works/41581038
Pairing: Lewis/Seb
The infamous Sebstache returns. Lewis has strong opinions on the matter.
I appreciated how believable I found their attraction to each other

the wild things cried by laugh
https://archiveofourown.org/works/72195976
Pairing: Lewis/Seb
I kind of like ‘The RedBull’ actually. I think it suits me, Sebastian had said, grinning. The lens in his mask were coloured a deep red. They glowed in the shadows of the blue billboard advertising: HOME AND BUSINESS INSURANCE — FIRE, WEATHER AND SUPE DAMAGE — COMPETITIVE RATES AVAILABLE.
Superhero AU! Specifically, a Seb-as-Red-Hood AU so an intersection of my interests

Hardware by anonymous
https://archiveofourown.org/works/45694984
Pairing: Lewis/Seb
Clearly unhappy with Lewis’ wandering mind, Seb bites down, hard and Lewis yelps. “Jesus!".
“Mhm, just Seb will do.” Seb snarks but he offers a consoling lick to soothe the sting of his little sharp teeth.
"You’re so sensitive,” he sounds a little awed and Lewis sucks his lip into his mouth to hold back the keening noise threatening to spill out. “You’re going to have to be quiet for me, hmm,” A twist and another lick and Lewis has to bite into the meat of Seb’s shoulder. He’s only wearing a t-shirt and Lewis can feel the smirk against his abused nipple.
Nipple play, piercings, fun dynamic

(No) Vacancy by tabris
https://archiveofourown.org/works/37652599
Pairing: Seb/Mick
"What are you doing?" Mick asks incredulously as Sebastian makes himself comfortable.
"No more seats left," Sebastian says, gesturing. Smirking. "And you looked cold."
Seb having an amazing time at Race of Champions and taking Mick with him :)


Hockey RPF (2 fics)
misery and company by Gertika
https://archiveofourown.org/works/54957052
Pairing: Leon Draisaitl/Connor McDavid
It’s not like he doesn’t know they’ve lost the game when he walks up to the plate. The opposing team’s closer has been on it tonight and they’re three runs down, on two outs and have no runners in the bottom of 9th. He knows.
Baseball AU!!

repairs by Snickfic
https://archiveofourown.org/works/5109956
Pairing: Sidney Crosby/Evgeni Malkin
Geno settled next to Sid and slanted a glance each way. No one paid much attention. Then he pulled off his left glove and shook it over Sid’s lap, and out of it dropped a finger.
Lovely body horror + devotion (to hockey? to each other? to both?)


Our Flag Means Death (6 fics + 1 podfic)
'til the night i held you by carribeancrocs
https://archiveofourown.org/works/55152229
Pairing: Izzy/Jim
Izzy is still wearing his Calypso makeup, though it’s gone a bit smeary in the Caribbean heat. He’s also still buttoned up in his all black ensemble, though his cravat is askew, and Jim can see the line of his neck, covered in a sheen of sweat.
“What are you staring at, Jimenez?”
Set in the hours after "Calypso's Birthday" in Season 2.
Excellent connection :)

twinkle twinkle little star by toadheart
https://archiveofourown.org/works/52944286
Pairing: Izzy/Wee John
The crew commits some corpse-related crimes
Resurrection rituallllll

sentimental by kaelleid
https://archiveofourown.org/works/54276085
Pairing: Izzy & Jim
Jim’s the one that finds it, after Roach cleans the body.
Sweet fic of Jim honoring Izzy after his death

Louder Than Words by Delphi
https://archiveofourown.org/works/51441574
Pairing: Fang/Izzy
Izzy sees to Fang's leathers and lets an act of service do the talking.
Very nice look at how Izzy expresses his love for Fang

Marriage Material by Delphi
https://archiveofourown.org/works/50074480
Pairing: Izzy/Jackie
Jackie kicks back for a leisurely smoke and gets to know Izzy better.
Just such a fun dynamic here!

veritas, reduci by redshift
https://archiveofourown.org/works/38870532
Pairing: Ed/Izzy
In Vino Veritas
Izzy says something true. Ed realises something painful.
Painful in the best way
+ Podfic of the same by peasina
https://archiveofourown.org/works/52697491


A Song of Ice and Fire (3 fics + 1 podfic)
Home To A Place You Have Never Been by Netgirl_y2k
https://archiveofourown.org/works/2262060
Characters: Sansa + Shae (show-verse)
There's a camp follower here, claiming to be a friend of Lady Sansa's.
A lovely canon divergence + reunion

Salt wife by Nary
https://archiveofourown.org/works/196235
It was a stroke of luck that she'd been the one to capture the girl. Any other ship, any other captain, and she'd have been handed over to the crew, or sold to a Lysene slaver, or, if she was lucky, killed outright.
Asha takes a salt wife (or, maybe, a salt wife takes her)
+ Podfic of the above, also by Nary
https://archiveofourown.org/works/67711041

he loves me not by eidetic
https://archiveofourown.org/works/17385242
Pairing: Jaime Lannister/Brynden "Blackfish" Tully
Jaime had been but a boy then, a young squire ostensibly meant to deliver a message from Riverrun.
Painful reunion, with Jaime's past hero worship of the Blackfish clashing with their current circumstances


Supernatural (1 fic)
The Burden of Perfection by victoria_p (musesfool)
https://archiveofourown.org/works/62090
Character: Anna Milton
Anna is hungry.
Anna Milton indulging in human things


Tennis RPF (1 fic)
crush by nymhciv
https://archiveofourown.org/works/64014877
Pairing: Naomi Osaka/Iga Świątek
"Are you okay?” Naomi asks, quiet and concerned.
Iga startles, straightens. “Of course!” she assures Naomi, wincing. Of course Naomi would catch her being dramatic, after she’s already been awkward out on court. Of course Iga can never be normal around her crush.
A sweet start!
