Every Thursday, we have a community post, just like this one, where you can drop a rec or five in the comments.

This works great if you only have one rec and don't want to make a whole post for it, or if you don't have a DW account, or if you're shy. ;)

(But don't forget: you can deffo make posts of your own seven days a week. ;D!)

So what cool fanvids/fics/fanart/other kinds of fanworks/fancrafts/podfics have we discovered this week? Drop it in the comments below. Anon comment is enabled.

BTW, AI fanworks are not eligible for reccing at recthething. If you aware that a fanwork is AI-generated, please do not rec it here.

Content notes: Caps used are my own from season one, gem effect rainbow background is from a public domain image search, text is from Kaleidoscope by The Veronicas. Font used is (true love).
Artist notes: I’m now working in Pixelmator Pro on Mac and I'm still very much learning how to use it including any tips and tricks not included in Apple's documentation and I’m more used to working in Photoscape X.

kalloway: Warrior of Light from Origins with Lensflare (Final Fantasy)
[personal profile] kalloway
Except I've mostly lost track of dates so I'm basically tossing out the old advent and will start over with counting down to... idk, Xmas? all over again?

Dragon Goes House Hunting 9 (Kawo Tanuki & Choco Aya) - still cute, still gonna be glad this is ending next volume.

Polite Society - this was honestly really fun even if it wasn't entirely what I was expecting and I think it'll likely end up as a frequent comfort watch just because it's so delightful and over the top.

Know Your Ships (2011 Edition) - my father picked up a bundle and this was a duplicate of what he had, so I now have a fancy, if outdated, Great Lakes Ship reference. \o/

Nobunaga Concerto - JFF film, this is a movie wrapping up a television series, and the movie does the quickest three minute recap and then just runs with the bonkers isekai premise. It was okay, but probably lost a lot without having seen the series.

Bleach S1 - I actually had expected to watch this and then put it in the sale bin but I really enjoyed it. Maybe I'll pick up the next set and see how far I get before I fall off like I always do. Bleach has a really good beginning.

Every Day A Good Day - JFF film, this one was about tea ceremony and was a nice enough culture drama. About a young woman learning tea ceremony and how she kept with it over the years.

Mobile Suit Gundam Wing Endless Waltz: Glory of the Losers 6-11 (Katsuyuki Sumizawa, Tomofumi Ogasawara) - the whole middle and getting to the end! Lots of little differences and explanations for things that felt vague in the anime. Gorgeous art and fun extras, too.

Confetti - JFF film, this one was absolutely wonderful. About the youngest member of a traveling theater troupe and how he enrolls in a new school for the duration of the troupe's stay in a town, but he doesn't tell his classmates about his life.

The Prince and the Dressmaker (Jen Wang) - reread to finally write something for [community profile] small_fandoms since I've meant to for actual ages. This is still delightful and full of yearning.

Tsukipro The Animation 2 - still idols and fun songs, but things get a lot weirder in this one and it's a lot of fun.

Let's Go Karaoke - JFF film, live-action adaptation, about a yakuza guy recruiting a teenage choir member to teach him how to sing. It's not BL but it's also not not BL, or something. I ended up watching the short anime version afterward and while it does some things different, they're both really good.

Heavy Metal L-Gaim (Box Set 1) - L-Gaim is getting a domestic release (or just has) so I wanted to watch this ancient bootleg set and see if I actually liked it enough to get the proper version. Unfortunately the translation on this is pretty poor and I'm not sure how I feel about the story. There are a lot of interesting things but also a lot that... eh. But absolute banger of an OP, if nothing else. I do have the second set but it's vanished from the pile by the TV so ???

Carole & Tuesday - since I picked up the fancy box set, I wanted to do a quick disc check and this is always so, so good. I don't think I've ever actually put this show away because I always want to watch it again. Fabulous music, fabulous everything.

Last night's new Daredevil: Born Again was one of the better written of the Born Again series. It's kind of a low bar, though, and there were a few weak bits in the teleplay by Devon Kilger and Jesse Wigutow. But I appreciated how the story got weird at points.

leanwellback: lestat and louis embracing, louis's arm cradling the back of lestat's neck and kissing his temple (vc- i'd tell them put me back in it)
[personal profile] leanwellback
My soul hoards its treasures
Vast and unending as the night sky
A sky so different to these eyes
Than the eyes that first beheld it
Aeons of wisdom earned, then locked away
Life after life, death after death
Places and people and passions it clings to
Things I've loved so long I couldn't say
When or how I fell
I don't believe in love at first sight
But I do believe in recognition
My soul will see with all of the eyes
That came before and say "hey,
I remember you."

[personal profile] leanwellback
The winters seem to feel longer these days
Is it simply that we're not having fun
That makes time grounded, refusing to fly
That keeps Helios from raising the sun

How could anyone blame Persephone
If she wanted to stay below the ground
Warm and safe and treasured by her husband
Away from man-made, cacophonic sound

But sure as the world still spins, stars still shine
The rivers stay flowing and birds still sing
As bleak as it seems when the days are short
The seasons turn and change with everything

The flowers sleeping in their cold, dark beds
Triumphantly raise their delicate heads

[personal profile] leanwellback
an open door is an invitation
a closed door is an answer
but a window is an insight
a chance to breathe
a chance to see
what's on the other side
without committing to a knock
without having to unlock

[#298 | Disappearance] Challenge Post

Challenge 298:
DISAPPEARANCE
These days, it’s not easy to disappear. There’s legal records, digital records – it’s hard to vanish entirely. But it’s still not impossible, and some people find it much easier than others. Before cellphone cameras, it was a lot easier, and in a world without modern technology, or with much better technology, it might be easier still.

Do your characters want to disappear? Or are they looking for someone who’s gone missing? How hard is it to vanish, for them? How hard is it to find someone who’s disappeared?

Write a story about a disappearance.

BONUS GOAL: “It’s like he just disappeared into thin air.”

If your submission features this line, it will earn an extra point to be tallied in voting!
