Mud and Sand - no author rating, but it is on the kmeme so it's likely to be explicit at some point - (anonymous - DA kmeme author)

WIP, but what a work. Each word counts in this one, folks, and groundwork for detailed plot has been laid out.

If the author finishes continues and completes with the same style and exquisitely rich texture, I will rec it to the moon and back. I give it a Hot Damn.

*crossing my fingers the author finishes*

Oh, this is different... in a very good way.

Told from Justice's first-person POV... brilliant idea, there.

Unjust - Corbie - E

Fear has become our Circle; anxiety our templar.

New author to me... very nice, clean work. Plus, you know... it's Fenris.

Suckerpunch- Inyri Ascending - T

&

Bound - M

I had time to peek at another story by the same author, looks like someone I need to follow.

I don't tag vignette-type fic. Except when I do.




Challenger - mille libri - T-rated




This hurt to read. Going to go cry in the corner, now.

So... more slashy, smutty goodness from littleblackdog


What's extra nice about this is the smattering of details we get about Circle life. Very nice.





Windfall - (it's on the kmeme, folks, it's gonna be explicit)

Every once in a while, I stumble upon a writer's collective works and am rewarded with an overload of lovely, lovely reading.

A few posts back, I did a 'reading' post on 'Mud and Sand' which is a WIP on the DA kmeme. Well, after clicking a different fic elsewhere, I realized (after some brilliant deduction, namely links) this was the same author.

So, today's reading is all about spicyshimmy (links to AO3 page). All of these stories have the same stylization which I am having a devil of a time describing. I wanted to say 'robust', but no, that conjures up images of burliness, or something. Complex? Textured? Rich?

Typically, this many words for the amount of plot would have me passing... so, I think my enamorment (and blathering) should speak for itself.

The fics below are ones I've read and liked. They're set with the Anders' POV,  for which this writing style seems tailor-made. Anders having an extremely descriptive (and yes, self-involved) inner monologue when he's not Justified very much works for me.

Stories are listed as M on AO3. Probably the mom in me, but I want to mash them up to E. Take that as you will.

SECOND AS A FARCE


Rearranging the furniture, tidying things up  a bit and putting this here:

MUD AND SAND


And a sequel WIP, which has this reader boggling... and beginning to wonder if the author is secretly not human.

GODS OF ANTIVA


And, in a *how the hell did I miss this* sort of way, a WIP on the kmeme:

OMNIA OMNIBUS
