💖 2024 Steddie Fic Recs 💖

@thefreakandthehair and i were talking about how so many of the fics we can name off the top of our heads are from right after the show came out because we were still actively making rec lists back then, so:

in no particular order i present to you an incomplete list of fics i love that were published or completed within the last two months

short fics (<10k)

Found God In A Tomato by @beetlesandstarss 5.7k | rated M | fluff, text fic

syrupy sweet strangers to first date fic. without spoiling anything, eddie is a flustered cutie and steve is a fuckin' menace who's lucky he's so hot

he tightened he grip by @steddieas-shegoes 1.3k | rated E | crack not treated remotely seriously

Mickala beloved your commitment to the bit makes me wanna commit myself to you 💍

Slide It In by gayhandshake 1.8k | rated E | multimedia crack

another truly impeccable work of crack fic, i laughed so hard at the first image that i made it the icon for my private discord server

what's that sound? (there's a funny man at my door) by @jewishrat420 4.8k | rated M | spicy six text fic

laughed out loud at this fic so many times i really don't know what else to tell you. as a matter of fact, i went to look at my bookmark note to see what else i had to say about it when i read it, and my note just says "fucking hilarious i laughed out loud like 6 times" 💀 did not do not will never know what else to tell you except that the phrase "the goyim of gender" just randomly pops into my brain once every four or so days now

medium fics (10-20k)

In the Kitchen or the Tulips by @teddywesworl 44k | rated E | telepathic soulmate AU

this fic said "watch me flip this trope inside out like a freshly cubed half of an avocado" and then DELIVERED. i finished this fic and then stared at the side of my husband's head for long enough that he looked over and went "wtf are you doing" lmao hush baby i am contemplating the implications

they're going to send us to prison for jerks by @greatunironic 16k | rated E | social media AU

okay firstly the premise of this fic is so specifically and delightfully unhinged; love that i'm not the only one who looks at a random tiktok account and manically whispers to myself "there's a fic in there somewhere." secondly the execution is a 10 outta 10 outta 10 outta TEN

long fics (50k+)

Sneaky Link by @morningberriesao3 152k | rated E | onlyfans au

the sex is HOT the boys are dumb as goddamn ROCKS what more do you need? oh, what's that? you do need more? sick because this fic also has: the tags "cum slut eddie munson" and "everyone is gay (because i say so)", chrissy the homophobe slayer being the cutest little spy, and jason getting his ass whooped, like, spiritually. on a spiritual level. physically unharmed but that boy's soul is missing teeth do u understand what i am saying

podfics!

it was love, love alone read by @reena-jenkins 21min | rated E

am i technically reccing my own fic on my own fic rec list? you bet your sweet ass i am, i don't even care how tacky that is reena's performance is hilarious and deserves to be listened to at least 40 more times while doing the dishes

relax (lay it back) read by @flintandfuss 1hr 10min | rated E | yogi dom steve x sub eddie

listen if i'm already being gauche then i gotta include my internet wife's belated birthday present to me, like i gotta. morally and lustfully obligated.

Schiava by @teddywesworl read by aheada_lettuce 1hr 30min | rated E | kas!eddie AU

and lastly, if you want more recs (like, 348 more specifically), you can browse my full list of public st bookmarks here

Marya and Colm sharing embarrassing baby and toddler stories of Wylan and Jesper to the other Crows who are eating it up

Anytime either of them start to complain about something Kaz is doing, he just gives them his hundred yard stare and whispers any number of the embarrassing child stories he now knows about. Both of them shut up real quick

Inej is a little more gracious about it, but she still finds opportunities to tease them about it

Nina just can't stop laughing for like a week straight

Matthias doesn't outright tease them, but now he understands why Wylan keeps handing him small bugs and various frogs whenever they go outside literally anywhere

#kaz: this is excellent blackmail mr fahey thank you #six of crows #crooked kingdom #leigh bargudo #grishaverse #soc #ck #marya hendriks #colm fahey #wylan van eck #jesper fahey #kaz brekker #inej ghafa #nina zenik #matthias helvar #for context on the last one i like to think wylan has a fascination with bugs and frogs #and he used to catch them when he was little #and now he just hands them to matthias because matthias has never seen most of these animals before

@nicoforlifetrue‘s Rotten Relfections fic has carved out a space in my brain and just lives there now.

have you ever thought that furina is a perfect cut for a spy... she literally mastered acting, is quick-witted, an excellent observer, resilient, and slick. no one do it like her.

#one day one praise for furina #of course she does acting best BUT with her skill set and personality she would excel anything #and yes she lacks physical strength but with intense training i think she would catch up #shes just #amazing #girlboss dressed like a girlfailure #furina #furina de fontaine #genshin impact

[brittlebutch]

btw Still thinking about the moment where Tula first realizes she's literally, mechanically unable to keep up with / catch Jaysohn when he bolts and runs his full speed. That revelation that she's not fast enough to stop him, or get alongside him, much less get in front of him to protect him if he needed it. The dread terror of it. :(

#N posts stuff #dimension 20 #d20: stupendous stoats #burrow's end #Siobhan said it almost like a joke but then Aabria put Weight behind it and oh boy. oh boy. there's Terror there babey!!!!!! #sure hope that doesn't come back in any significant way in any significant scene. ........... #It's like the moment in ep 2 when Tula's initiative fell behind Both Lila and Jaysohn and the only thing she could do was Watch #as they both jumped into the battle ahead of her. because she couldn't keep up with them... #look Sometimes catching a recurring theme in an actual play show doesn't necessarily Mean anything bc of the improv nature of it #but Obviously the dice also tell stories. and Aabria is a Fantastic GM. and the players are Excellent at role play. so it's..... 👀 #certainly not off the table. G-D i'm so invested in this season i'm fully gonna lose my mind no matter what happens lmao #i'm on the edge of my SEAT

The Catch was a baseball play made by New York Giants center fielder Willie Mays on September 29, 1954, during Game 1 of the 1954 World Series at the Polo Grounds in Upper Manhattan, New York City. During the eighth inning with the score tied 2–2, Cleveland Indians batter Vic Wertz hit a deep fly ball to center field that had the runners on base poised to score. However, Mays made an over-the-shoulder catch while on the run to record the out, and his throw back to the infield prevented the runners from advancing. The Giants won the game 5–2 in extra innings, and eventually the World Series. The Catch is regarded as one of the greatest plays in baseball history.

waahhhh the hunger games movies only cared about the love triangle waaaahh the movies are so reductive waaaaaaaah they made it all about the romance waaaaahh WRONG U CRYBABY. STOP CRYING.

gary ross didn’t make the first scene a quick cut from seneca’s faux intellectualism to prim’s horrified screams for you to say the films only cared about romance

#i genuinely don’t understand people who say this #the films are EXCELLENT. they clearly showcase the horror and class warfare #they are clever and detailed #the romance is an important part of the story so of course they included it? #the hunger games #catching fire #mockingjay

[my-name-is-apollo]

I think this is the only account that details the contest between Apollo and Zephyrus and it's amusing:

Hyacinthus was a beautiful youth from Amyclae. Apollo saw him, Zephyrus too; and both were caught by his beauty. Each of them was generous in the way he had: Apollo shot arrows and Zephyrus blew. From the former there were songs and sweet pleasure; from the other panic and confusion. The youth inclined toward the god. Zephyrus was jealous and armed himself for combat.

- Palaephatus, On Unbelievable Things (trans. John Brady Kiesling)

I'm imagining Zephyrus, overzealous, blowing the wind so hard that it almost sent Hyacinthus flying. That is why he got scared of Zephyrus lol

#Apollo #Hyacinthus #Zephyrus #Zephyrus: *goes all out to show off and tips Hyacinthus over* #Apollo: *catches Hyacinthus before he falls* #k-drama music plays in the background as they look into each other's eyes and fall in love #Zephyrus: *sad wind noises* #look Zeph maybe if you had a hobby and excelled in something other than blowing winds #you could have had a chance

hey in your Lights Out au, does Wally still eat with his eyes? & if he does, is that effected by the fact that he's, you know, missing one?

that is Such a good question that i Have Not considered! i'd assume... yea!

#excellent thought it has me Thinking.... #bc im of the belief that the puppets dont really Need to eat? #like i doubt theyd die or become malnourished if they didnt? #which is good bc in this au they'd run out of food super quickly #i mean wally would be fine. he'd just start eating the houses #but anyway yes yes Yes i do believe it would affect Wally's ability #it probably took a lot of concentration when he was first calibrating to the change #and he probably could only eat half a bite at a time instead of a full one... #man this poor dude has to partially relearn hand-eye coordination / eating / art / perspective #sally fucked him over oopsies! she didnt mean to! #rambles from the bog #wh lights out au #yk its probably even harder for him to 'eat' things predominantly on his left side #since more left eye power would be used for those... #catch him whipping his head to the side like an anime character about to fuck someone up

[binah-beloved]

Binah isn't particularly good at verbally expressing herself. she much prefers actions over words, since to her, words are easy to say without meaning, so she shows her love mostly through small gestures- sorting some of your books so you don't have to, carrying you to bed when you accidentally nod off on your desk, leaving you hot cups of tea- it's a peaceful little routine

still, she knows how encouraging a few kind words can be, your own sweet remarks being part of the reason she can get through difficult days, and it's not so much that she has nothing to say, just that she's bad at speaking it aloud

so instead Binah writes a book, a small journal filled with every reason she loves you and every time she thought of you fondly. in a few days she runs out of pages, tying a ribbon around the book and leaving it on your desk for you to discover

sure enough, you approach her later in the day crying happy tears, and Binah merely hums and pulls you close in a strong, soft hug, no words needed

#project moon #lobotomy corporation #library of ruina #binah #binah lobcorp #binah library of ruina #the compliments she writes are long and wonderfully verbose and flattering #they're almost like poetry #sometimes you catch her staring at you from across the room #that's when she's thinking about how much she adores you #you and binah exchanging meaningful little gifts is excellent
