DNW: Please no detailed on page child abuse or Suicidal Ideation

General Likes: Slice of Life, Recovery, Post Canon. Neurodiverse/Disabled/Queer folks worked into the worldbuilding (POV characters are welcome if thats where your muse takes you). Gender as a social concept (this can include discussions of sex related expectations inherent to a persons position in the narrative, trans headcanons, gender bending, A/B/O, etc)

General Mixed Bag: Complete AUs,

   Fandom: ゆるキャン△ | Yuru Camp | Laid-Back Camp (Anime)  
        Kagamihara Nadeshiko & Shima Rin
        Inuyama Aoi & Oogaki Chiaki
        Inuyama Aoi & Kagamihara Nadeshiko & Oogaki Chiaki & Shima Rin
    Summary
    One of my favor comfort shows. I'm a camper and seeing them out in nature scratches the itch. I love their friendships. Both one on one and in a group.

    Its a great low stakes anime that still takes time to show the day to day inconveniences and problems that come along with travel and life.

   Would love anything from a new camping adventure. To life when they are older and stakes are a little higher. Or a day at room camp, dealing with school stuff.

    Fandom: とんでもスキルで異世界放浪メ | Tondemo Skill de Isekai Hourou Meshi | Campfire Cooking in Another World (Anime)  
        Fel & Mukouda Tsuyoshi
        Fel & Mukouda Tsuyoshi & Sui
    Summary
    I'm Anime fandoms only. So don't have familiarity with the later parts of the series. I love the focus on food and trying new recipes. Food and cooking and pets are two of my soft spots so this was a shoe in as one of my fave slice of life shows.

    Reverse isekai with the familiars in modern world. New places to explore. They try to make your favorite recipe. All would be great!

    Fandom: We Bare Bears (Cartoon)  
        Grizz & Ice Bear & Panda & Rager Tabes
        Grizz & Ice Bear & Panda
    Summary
     Older fandom but I similar to the other two I loved the slice of life and unexpected things being thrown in the mix. Even while they usually kept things lower stakes. While still not being afraid to bring in the absurd and partially supernatural.

    Day in the life. The bears go on a trip. Or if you are up for it something post Movie when they aren't the only Bears in the City. For Tabes I just love her whole deal. She's focused, driven, and soooo Neurodivergent. How does that work with adjusting to being friends with bears, big foots, and other talking animals

    Fandom: The Fall of the House of Usher (TV 2023)  
        Lenore Usher & Morella Usher
        Juno Usher & Morella Usher
    Summary
     So my other genre love besides slice of life is horror. And this series just hit the soft spots. So many female characters and avoiding child possession which is a major trigger for me.

    Would love to see a situation where Lemme and Morella get away ahead of the Fall. Particularly if there is a deal loophole that let's Lenore live. Juno, oh Juno. As a fellow chronic pain haver her arc was just *chefs kiss* I'd love some of her and Morellas lives post series. Two women recovering both in body and from getting tangled up with monster husbands.

    Fandom: Zombieland (2009 2019)  
        Columbus & Little Rock & Tallahassee & Wichita
    Summary
    Horror and slice of life. How could I resist. Would love any day or days in the life between the movies. Becoming a family and road tripping across the country

        Hei Xia Zi & Liu Sang
        Liu Sang & Wang Pangzi & Wu Xie & Zhang Qiling
        Hei Xia Zi & Zhang QilingFanfiction
    Summary
    I love the Iron triangle and am always up for adventures or days hanging around eating and caring for each other. Before, during, or after Series. Also seeing them draft prickly hedgehog Liu Sang is  always fun. Hei Xia Zi all the sass and so uncle he can't stop collecting godsons. Adopts one more in Says Lui Sang. Or on being big brother to another immortal adjacent in Xiaoge, dealing with him always forgetting. And then knowing he had new people helping care for him.

    Fandom: 人渣反派自救系统 - 墨香铜臭 | The Scum Villain's Self-Saving System - Mòxiāng Tóngxiù  
        Shang Qinghua & Shen Yuan | Shen Qingqiu
        Shen Jiu | Original Shen Qingqiu & Yue Qingyuan
        Liu Qingge & Shen Yuan | Shen Qingqiu
    Summary
     Shang Qinghua and Shen Yuan the bicker bros. Either with or without transmigration. An author and his harshest critic who also keep bailing each other out is such a fun dynamic.
     Poor Yue Qingyuan give this man some closure and less tragedy. Fixits much appreciated wether that's original timeline without transmigration or some majic Shen Jiu comexs back in canon.
     All the while LBH was in the abyss adventures. Or other brawn and brain hijinks. Including modern AU or reverse transmigration welcome.
    
    Fandom: Free Guy (2021)  
        Walter "Keys" McKey & Mouser
    Summary
    These two have such a fun dynamic. Ready to have each others back but also ready to trip them for the bit. I'd love some pre-movie scenes in the incident bullpen. And to see their view of the game and what it's like from the inside.

General Mixed Bag: PWPs, Complete AUs,

Fandom: ワンパンマン | One-Punch Man
Genos & Saitama (One-Punch Man)
Medium: Fanfiction - Freeform

I love Saitama in all his apathetic and kinda illogical glory. He's living off the grid and keeping a decent house with a strong budgeting instinct. But never noticed he was supposed register as a working hero. He doesn't initially like being followed by Genos as his disciple but also doesn't have any actual plan to escape the relationship.

Kills without much concern, while at the same time having a much higher awareness of the consequences to civilians than most of the other heroes we see, including Genos at the start.

Genos has such an adorable hero worship crush. Will he ever stop blowing himself up?

How do they change to better help each other in general and in achieving their goals.

Fandom: Gundam Wing
Trowa Barton/Chang Wufei/Duo Maxwell/Quatre Raberba Winner/Heero Yuy (GW)
Duo Maxwell/Heero Yuy (GW)
Chang Wufei/Duo Maxwell (GW)
Medium: Fanfiction - Freeform

One of my oldest fandoms. I love how different each of the boys povs/motivations are despite working together towards the larger goal. During or post war are both great. Would love some more cultural discussions of the different colonies. Or some sick/wounded fic of them taking care of each other.

Fandom: Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood & Manga
Greed/Ling Yao (FMA:B)
Medium: Fanfiction - Freeform

These two have such an interesting relationship. And Greed in general has a very interesting take on relationships and ownership. I'd love to see something where Greed survives. But anything character centric about these two would be great.

Maria Campbell/Katarina Claes (My Next Life as a Villainess)
Medium: Fanfiction - Freeform

Katarina's unfailing ability to take over romantic storylines and sweep a girl off her feet. While remaining so oblivious. This is a great fandom for general worldbuilding. Or an A/U sapphic meet cute.

Rereading

1. Brood by Jackie Polzin

Fandom: The Untamed
Relationship: Gen; Background Wei Wuxain/Lan Wangji
Length: 32k
Warnings: Canon typical Violence and sexism

Author's Website: MarbleGlove

Summary: The Elders of the four Great Sects: Jiang, Nie, Jin, and Lan. (for some definition of "Elder")
Sometimes, you just have to know when to stop pushing so hard. Work smarter, not harder, etc.

Review: Fix it for the Untamed that revolves around various cultivators focusing on their own health and chronic conditions rather than sect nonsense.

Fix its are common in any Tragedy canon and the Untamed is no exception. Though most of the time this focuses on making someone more powerful rather than giving up on power.

In addition to my love of seeing something different in the fixit genre. MarbleGlove is known for these types of AUs. But I particularly love this AU because it both has a lot of humor and is inherently about showing kindness both to others, and more importantly to yourself.

Rest is Revolution Series

Fandom: Epic NPC Man
Relationship: Gen
Length: 7.5k
Warnings: No Archive Warning Applies

Author's Website: Fresne's AO3

Summary: It started out as a simple fishing trip. Something to do to get away from all the toxicity. Guildeluec9 didn't expect anything more.

Then there was a lot of fishing.

Review: Bit of a self indulgent rec. Cause this one was actually written as a gift fic to me. But it is Very very much a fic who loves it's source material with tons of lore and cameos for any Epic NPC man fan to enjoy. Even if you arent as fishing game theme obsessed as I am.

If you aren't familiar with the Epic NPC man universe but do play Multiplayer games in the swords and magic style you mat still enjoy the fic as it plays into the same themes of satirizing the genre as the Epic NPC skits do.

Good. Nice. Fishing.

Falling Back in Love with Being Human by Kai Cheng Thom
Dept of Speculation by Jenny Offill

Fandom: 人渣反派自救系统 - 墨香铜臭 | The Scum Villain's Self-Saving System - Mòxiāng Tóngxiù
Relationship: Luo Binghe/Shen Yuan | Shen Qingqiu
Length: 22k
Warnings: Canon Typical Violence (Including past child abuse)

Author's Website: Neery's AO3

Summary: Luo Binghe has it all: the respect of the cultivation world, the home he always wanted, and Shizun's love. There's just one problem: if Shizun ever finds out he's a demon, it's going to ruin everything.

Review: Neery is one of my favorite authors. I've followed them in a number of fandoms and always enjoy when we end up in the same one at the same time. Luo Binghe's voice is impeccable and Neery does such a good job of Knowing both what is factually going on in the story and showing how fact of Binghe's understanding is. Playing with an unreliable narrator which such a skilled hand that you start to jump along as he jumps to conclusions.

Also Shen Yuan as such a mythical beast fanboy.

The More You Don't Know

Fandom: Tortall - Tamora Pierce
Relationship: Keladry of Mindelan/Nealan of Queenscove/Yukimi noh Daiomoru
Length: 70k
Warnings: Canon Typical Violence

Author's Website: lady_ragnell's AO3

Summary: In a just world, Nealan of Queenscove would still have been a third son. In a just world, he would have been in love with Keladry of Mindelan. This isn't a just world, but he can dream about it.

Or, the Kel/Neal/Yuki manifesto.

Review: Am I a Kel stan? Absolutely. Do I normally read ship fic for her? Not really.

So this fic snuck up on me a bit. But my huge soft spot for situationship romances drew me in. Lady Ragnell has a great Neal voice. Part knight, part healer. All loyalty and to sharp tongue.

The fic spans the last two of Kel's books and the peace after. And we see Neals love for both partners grow from a potential to full bloom with Yuki beside him growing into her own love.

We're Leaving Our Shadows Behind Us

Talk about an unexpected joyous moment you experienced last year.

I was able to get a new cat in the summer of 2024. He's a good boy. A real Original Red Bull flavored orange boy. All the energy but not a lot going on between his ears.

There has been a lot good moments with him. He came to me with barely treated Hyperthyroidism so he was skin over barely padded bones. By late in the year I got to see him with a little pooch belleh. And most days when I'm home, either off or WFH he's will be within arms reach or right on top of me. Both my other boys are more independent. Which isn't a bad thing, but it's nice to have a lapcat again.

Other good things, were the start of a new job. One where I wasn't covering for multiple open jobs. And I was able to fund a new sewer line, as I continue to work towards getting my home easier to live in and more like I want it in general. And a new mobility aid that is easier on my body than a wheelchair.

There were hard things, politics, getting sicker, family stress, etc but mostly in a personal space the world was kind.
