Fic Recs

Oh boy! I received six (count 'em) gift works, and I can't emphasize enough that they're all recommend-worthy, but I'm going to pick out a few notable favorites. I would like ALL of these fics to be included in the final reading list .

Rewind, Begin Again
Dream SMP | Fic, 2k | Quackity/Wilbur Soot, Quackity & Wilbur Soot

This fic blew me out of the water in so many ways. The POV work is absolutely incredible, the characterization is really spot-on, and the perspective writing is gorgeous. It was a really solid take on one of my prompts. Truly one of my favorite pieces for this fandom ever, I'd highly recommend giving it a look if you're interested in tntduo.

there are worse ways to stay alive
Dream SMP | Fic, 2.5k | Quackity & Tubbo
https://archiveofourown.org/works/51392179

This one requires a little extra reading (less than 2k); it's the direct sequel to another work by the same author that was also a gift to me (which I opted into, medium-wise), and you can access the prequel by clicking the "previous work" button in the fic's series.

this is a must-read if you like cabinetduo. this author truly has such a flair for character studies down, and its a great exploration of their dynamic with each other and the baggage their relationship holds. full of sophistication and worldbuilding, incredible references, and an iconic tntduo psycho-competitive rivalry, you definitely shouldn't miss this one.

[Art] Visit Missy
Doctor Who (2005) | Art / Propaganda Poster | Twelfth Doctor & Missy & Bill Potts

This art was so good I told my therapist about it. I cannot fathom the effort that went into creating such a high-quality work. Also I practically begged someone to make content about these characters, and the fact that the tag has been added to makes me deeply happy. It's super narratively cohesive, as well! Take a look, it'll astonish you.

A Story About You (Not You, the one from before, a different one. You know who you are.)
Welcome to Night Vale | Fic, 3k | Cecil Palmer/Carlos Robles

I think this fic encapsulates the spirit of Welcome to Night Vale in a way that is rare, through POV, format, and general thematic brilliance. I think that it really fits like a glove into the universe that WTNV has created, and if you like the style of the podcast, you will like this fic. I definitely recommend all those passionate about WTNV's weirdness to check this one out.
