Art

Batman & Superman comics

Shadow and Light. Clark Kent & Bruce Wayne. Rated G.

A beautiful, moody painting with a fun theme. I especially love Clark's glasses.

A Game of Thrones

a foreign invasion. Yara Greyjoy/Ellaria Sand. Rated T.

Gorgeous, hot art of Yara and Ellaria kissing. It's mostly worksafe but you can see a nipple if you look closely, and I know I did.

Fic

The fic is mostly dependent on knowing canon, but you could read "Archie Meets Pavlov" and "Worrals Takes a Chance" without knowing more than the first is about very young male WWI pilots and the second is about very young female WWII pilots. They both very much have the feel of the canon, but with sex.

Biggles - W. E. Johns

Archie Meets Pavlov. 1527 words. Algy/Biggles. Rated M.

Biggles and Algy seize some opportunities in WWI. Very hot, very funny, and understatedly heartbreaking. It sounds exactly like the WWI stories if they were R-rated

Three Kisses. 1898 words. Algy/Ginger. Rated T.

What it says on the tin: three kisses across three time periods. Sweet, touching, tender.

A Song of Ice and Fire - George R. R. Martin

Dreaming of Dragons. 1376 words. Rhaenys Targaryen (daughter of Rhaegar & Elia) & Balerion (cat) & Balerion (dragon). Rated G.

A beautiful, dreamy story in which Rhaenys has a gift that saves her.

Tillerman Cycle - Cynthia Voigt

remember me to one who lives there. Maybeth & her friends and family. 2455 words. Rated G.

A cleverly structured and beautifully detailed set of vignettes from Maybeth's life, with prose and concerns that are uncannily like Voigt's.

True Detective

True Colors. Marty & Rust. 771 word. Rated T.

An absolutely pitch-perfect funny-tragic vignette of synesthesia, barbecue, and bickering in a car.

Worrals - W. E. Johns

Worrals Takes a Chance. Frecks/Worrals.

A very funny and sweet get-together in a Canadian Swiss shack. Frecks' dialogue is particularly hilarious.

Let me know if you enjoyed anything!

Some of these are my birthday gifts, some are from the Trick or Treat Collection, and some are just things I recently enjoyed. I hope you find something to enjoy too. If you do, please kudos or comment and make the creator happy.

(I did not sign up for Trick or Treat this year, but I did write three treats (can you guess which they are?) and I've been enjoying browsing the collection.)

(You will note a lack of Biggles. This is because I have enough Biggles fic recs for its own post.)

Art and Fic

Watership Down - Richard Adams. Rabbit-of-the-Moon, by Zdenka. 100 words + art. Silverweed dreams of the moon.

Art

There was a ton of art I loved in the Trick or Treat collection. To browse just the art, sort by wordcount and start at the end.

Star of the Ballet. In another universe, Degas paints darling gorilla girl ballerinas.

The Endless Halloween. Sandman TV. A lovely autumnal portrait of Death, in an outfit she would TOTALLY wear.

Ladies' Games. House of the Dragon, Rhaenyra/Alicent. A great example of how hot a scene can be when everyone is modestly clothed, seen from the waist up, and not doing anything overtly sexual.

a delightful family portrait and a study in badassitude. SPY X FAMILY. I don't know the show but the art is GREAT.

Similarly, I bounced off the Locked Tomb books but I still enjoyed this cool animation of Gideon and this lovely portrait of Nona.

Haircare. Alien vs. Predator. Continuing the theme of me living under a pop culture rock, I've never seen the movie but clearly you don't need to in order to enjoy this tender portrait of a Predator doing his beloved's hair.

Fic

Candyman (Original). the girl made of fire. 348 words. The stories they tell about Helen.

Earthsea - Ursula K. Le Guin. tomorrow will not be too late, by victoria_p (musesfool). A beautiful look at Tenar through the years.

Original Works/Lovecraftiana. A pair of delightful Original Female Character/Eldritch Horror With Lots of Tentacles stories, both sweet and hilarious. In which Shoggoths have nothing on grad school and Roommates-to-lovers on Halloween.

Julius Caesar - Shakespeare. for always I am Caesar. 532 words. Gorgeously written.

Iron Fist. Pumpkin Problems. 991 words. Ward gets turned into a pumpkin. Need I say more?

Rebecca - Daphne du Maurier. As Sank I Senseless by the Dreadful Shore. 1587 words. Absolutely pitch-perfect narrative voice, a chilling post-novel story.

The Sandman TV. A Place For One (Or Two). 852 words. A lovely and very cozy story about Dream and Lucienne's developing friendship.

The Stand - Stephen King. Cheap Thrills, by Maidenjedi. 1354 words. An unsettling, wistful look at one of my favorite pre-flu characters, Maria the Oral Hygienist.
