Title: Send Me Your Studded Heart
Author: NotALemon
Canon: X-Men (Filmverse)
Pairing: Peter Maximoff/Kurt Wagner
Rating: Explicit [NC-17]
Word Count: 67,996
Summary: Peter’s smoking a cigarette out by the dumpster of wherever the hell he is. He doesn’t have a fucking clue, really. Erik’s taking them on some sort of weird father-son road trip through Germany. This bar or whatever was his idea. It’s fucking weird, but he’s glad to spend any time with his father, even though the whole situation sounds like the beginning of a shitty joke. A high school dropout and his deadbeat felon dad walk into a sketchy German bar… He’ll figure out the punchline by the time they leave. (Or: Erik and Peter rescue Kurt from the mutant fighting ring. X-Men: Apocalypse doesn't happen. Instead: slow burn romance, learning to be a father, and found family.)

Title: Fucking Androids
Author: Skalidra
Canon: Detroit: Become Human
Pairing: Gavin Reed/RK900 Upgraded Connor
Rating: Mature [R]
Word Count: 62,548
Summary: The prick in front of the desk is not Connor, on a second look. It's a few inches taller, no tie, only that white jacket over a black shirt with the collar high and tight around its neck. It looks a lot like Connor, but the eyes that rest on him are cold grey, matching the spinning, calm blue of its LED. The lines of its face somehow different with the lack of Connor's big eyes and earnest sincerity. Harder. He glares back, but nothing changes. It's completely still, not reacting, only studying him with eyes that might as well be fucking chips of ice for all the feeling they've got. It looks like it's got a massive fucking steel rod jammed up its ass, is what it looks like.

Recommendation: This was wonderful! And it deserves a full review but I’m pressed for time at the moment so suffice it to say that, it is wonderful and I will probably be back to give it a proper write up later.

Title: Steal Your Heart
Author: darlingest
Canon: My Hero Academia
Pairing: Touya Todoroki/Keigo Takami
Rating: Explicit [NC-17]
Word Count: 61,734
Summary: When infamous thief Hawks announces that he is going to steal the heart of Endeavor's son, everyone expects him to prey on Shoto Todoroki - nobody suspects Touya to be the actual target.

Recommendation: AHHHH! This was so good! Man darlingest nailed Touya as himself but just a little (a lot!) less fucked up. *chef's kiss* I loved confident and flirty villain Hawks, but civilian Keigo is the sweetest bean. I loved that Touya's relationships with all his siblings are so well featured. I loved that Endeavor is not let off the hook. I just loved this whole thing!

Title: How to Seduce a Himbo Who Already Likes You
Author: MoonlightStarlights
Canon: SK8 the Infinity
Pairing: Kojiro Nanji/Kaoru Sakurayashiki
Rating: Explicit [NC-17]
Word Count: 61,302
Summary: Kaoru is bad with feelings, makes an effort and learns about taking his time because love is hard. And it's even harder when you have to juggle loving your childhood best friend and dealing with the constant haunting presence of his ex-friend.

Recommendation: Oh man, Kojiro gets to do what I think we'd all like to do and he also gets some things off his chest that Kaoru really needed to hear. I like that this includes both of their points of view so you get a balanced picture but they both have stuff to work on though perhaps Kaoru is the more obvious. They get there in the end and it is so good and truly satisfying.

Title: Wraith Killers
Author: LadyRa
Canon: Stargate Atlantis | Stargate SG1
Pairing: John Sheppard/Rodney McKay; Jack O'Neill/Daniel Jackson
Rating: Explicit [NC-17]
Word Count: 69,959
Summary: Atlantis ends up with some unexpected new residents.

Recommendation: Despite the fact that I'd seen SG1 first it was Stargate Atlantis that was my gateway to this fandom. That being said, I thought that it was high time I gave Jack x Daniel a fair shake but it seemed fitting to try to ease my way in with a healthy dose of McShep. Also, giant kitties YASSS please. This is certainly an old standby in the fandom, but it is a hell of a lot of fun and the addition of O'Neill and Daniel to the Atlantis expedition is all to the good.

Title: All the Pain of Yesterday
Author: Spikedluv
Canon: Teen Wolf
Pairing: Christopher Argent/Peter Hale
Rating: Teen [PG]
Word Count: 66,025
Summary: Chris retires from hunting and moves back to Beacon Hills with Allison. Or, a rewrite of early season one.

Recommendation: *flails* Oh my God this was so good! Uh, I love Chris and all of his old friends, and oh man, I love the whole Romeo and Juliet thing that Chris and Peter have going on. I love that actual functional adults deal with the things (instead of Derek and assorted teenagers ;)). But most of all I LOVE that Derek is supported and taken care of by the real adults like the traumatized young adult that he is, it soothes something inside my heart. So freaking good!

Recommendation #2,502

Title: Queen of Hearts
Author: DiNovia
Canon: Star Trek VOY
Pairing: B'Elanna Torres/Seven of Nine
Rating: Mature [R]
Word Count: 63,507
Summary: Seven of Nine asks B'Elanna Torres for personal assistance. Never knowing the perfect Borg to need assistance of any kind, B'Elanna is intrigued and agrees. What she discovers changes everything she thought she knew--about Seven, about herself, and about life.

Recommendation: This was SO Awesome! I loved this so much! I love the domestic space lesbians. ;) I love that the Borg children get a little more fleshing out, I love that their relationship with Seven and later B'Elanna are so important. I love all the little details of the OC aliens. But the best part is the wonderful building of the relationship between Seven and B'Elanna (and that no one is vilified in the process).

Title: This Flightless Feeling
Author: pamdizzle
Canon: Gotham
Pairing: Oswald Cobblepot/Jim Gordon
Rating: Explicit [NC-17]
Word Count: 61,037
Summary: A flightless bird and a Police Captain walk into a wedding... Or, the one where Jim and Oswald pose as a couple to foil the Riddler. Takes place somewhere between four and five years after season 4.

Recommendation: This was so good! The pretentious destination wedding, Bruce and Selina being too cute, Barbara brings all of her sass, Oswald being his clever self, and Jim makes a rather great boyfriend actually. I love that it was mostly about Jim and Oswald's relationship, but that it still had a bit of plot that slipped in. And the sexytimes, hot like burning. Also, shout out to the mild Smallville crossover.

Title: The For Family series
Authors: ilyena_sylph & Merfilly
Canon: Star Wars - the Original Trilogy/The Clone Wars
Pairing: Ahsoka Tano/Captain Rex "CT-7567"; Obi-Wan Kenobi/Commander Cody "CC-2224"
Rating: General [G]
Word Count: 69,001
Summary: An exploration of what Darth Vader will do for the child of Padmé when he realizes she exists.

Recommendation: I've always rather wondered how things would have gone if it was Leia that Vader had realised his connection to first, and this is a marvelous take on that. Especially because it includes Ahsoka and how she and Vader go about repairing their relationship.

Title: This Thing of Darkness
Author: maggiedragon
Canon: Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them
Pairing: Percival Graves/Credence Barebone
Rating: Explicit [NC-17]
Word Count: 66,183
Summary: Percival Graves knew he would have to pick up the pieces that Gellert Grindelwald had left of his life. He didn’t expect Credence Barebone to be one of those pieces.

Recommendation: This is wonderful, I can definitely see why it’s top shelf. All of the added detail is so rich, I love the OCs they are so well executed. Percival and Credence heal together, and there is a nice slow build. Also plenty of action, some of it harrowing, but the ending after a brief stint away is really satisfying.

Title: Winter's Children
Author: Neery
Canon: Captain America/MCU
Pairing: Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes
Rating: Explicit [NC-17]
Word Count: 66,888
Summary: When their attempts to recreate the super soldier serum failed, Hydra started trying to breed Captain America clones from his genetic samples. Unfortunately, the serum’s effects aren’t passed down genetically, so instead of an army of tiny Captain Americas, they get a bunch of tow-headed, asthmatic, allergic, immuno-compromised little Steves. And then the Winter Soldier stumbles across Hydra’s failed experiment…

Recommendation: This was so good, OMG! All of the tiny “Steves” were so recognisably Steve but at the same time still very much their own characters. The soldier is the scariest nanny/mommy that has ever been, that doesn’t stop him from being the best though. I love that even though the soldier is the one rescuing the kids, it’s the kids who really break through his training and help him remember and re-humanize him.

Title: A Dog's Life
Author: ornategrip
Canon: Daredevil/MCU
Pairing: Frank Castle/Franklin ‘Foggy’ Nelson
Rating: Explicit [NC-17]
Word Count: 68,706
Summary: One day Foggy came home and Frank Castle was on his couch.

Recommendation: This answers a burning question left over from season two, what happened to Frank’s dog? Well, Foggy happened and I can only think that is a good thing even if he finds himself sharing joint custody with Frank. It hurts my heart that Matt and Foggy don’t reconcile but there is a measure of catharsis from how it all went down between them. Domestic Frank is the cutest thing ever.
