recs meme
I'm still on hiatus from monthly recs, but I did a handful over on Tumblr in response to an ask game. Check them out!
If anyone here would like to play, here's the list:
1 - Recommend a fic that lives in your brain rent free.
2 - Recommend a fic that is not posted on AO3.
3 - Recommend fic that is less than 5,000 words.
4 - Recommend a fic that is over 50,000 words.
5 - Recommend a gen fic (no pairings).
6 - Recommend a fic that does something cool with format or structure (epistolary, social media, 5 things, non-linear, etc.)
7 - Recommend a fic that uses a trope you love.
8 - Recommend a fic with an interesting premise/concept.
9 - Recommend a fic from a book fandom.
10 - Recommend a fic that is more than 10 years old.
11 - Recommend a fic you think is a hidden gem/deserves more reads.
12 - Recommend a fic that formed or changed your opinion on something (characterization, backstory, relationship, etc.)
13 - Recommend a fic you've re-read multiple times.
14 - Recommend your favorite fic.
15 - Recommend any fic of your choice.
I've technically already done 1, 5, 6, 7, 9, 11, and 13, but I'm happy to take repeats. Fandom requests are also welcome, if it's one I share.

4 - Recommend a fic that is over 50,000 words.
Okay, it took forever to find something long enough I didn't think you'd read, but here's a Spiderman fic that hasn't made it to Pinboard yet: the long game. AU where Peter is Tony and Pepper's biokid who got kidnapped very young, and he's been having a really shitty time of it, but he's still such a good kid underneath. Tropey to the max!
8 - Recommend a fic with an interesting premise/concept.
Resurgo - in which Dick Grayson becomes an Olympic gymnast as his teenage rebellion instead of Nightwing. ♥
OR
Closed Loop System - darkly funny Murderbot fic about some OC SecUnits on assignment, told through a Minesweeper game.
12 - Recommend a fic that formed or changed your opinion on something (characterization, backstory, relationship, etc.)
Okay, I'm sure you've read this one but it's the one I always think of first for this question: A clarification of range, which was just so so formative for my internal Tim Drake characterization, not to mention my Tim/Kon OTP 5eva.
