this seems fun so- fic rec bingo, my thread:

this'll probably be done throughout multiple days bc i don't think i can do it all in one sitting. also, there's gonna be a large range of fic types, tropes, and fandoms

1. a fic you love without knowing the source material:

- vampire knight, zero/kaname
- only ever read vol.1 of vk
- I wasn't expecting to adore this fic as much as I do
- warnings: time travel au, unhealthy rs in past (be cautious)

2. a fic with a premise that shouldn't work but does:
Bouquet of Noses by nicowememoney
- bts, taegi
- absolutely ridiculous, see tag "complete and utter crack"
- but it's also hilarious and heartwarming so do yourself a favor and just read it

3. a fic you've reread several times:
The Notion of Falling by smokeshop
- SKAM (norway), evak
- i'm in love with this fic, i actually just reread it again a few days ago

5. a comfort fic
nothing about you is real by bapaldeul
- Wannaone, nielwink
