40 super junior fic recs gah!
From
blizzard4526: Comment on this post. I will choose seven interests from your profile and you will explain what they mean and why you are interested in them. Post this along with your answers in your own journal so that others can play along.
These were mine:
01. asian boy band fanservice - I feel as if this should be self-explanatory. I love my Asian boybands and the way they grope each other, yay!
02. believing in true love - Sometimes I feel as if this is a lie, but mostly I believe in true love. At least for my OTPs and in my writing.
03. teukie's everything - This came right after "Kibum's smile" and "Donghae's hips". I had to include Teukie and we all know how he's my favorite and--yeah. I love it all, including his epic fail. ♥
04. various methods of procrastination - Um, if I didn't major in PoliSci and Intl Studies, I would major in this. And I would be damned good at it.
05. donghae's hips - Just watch him dance. Just do it. Guh.
06. making impenetrable fandom references - I make countless fandom references from all the fandoms I'm in, all the time. No one else gets them, it's okay. (For instance, this blog is a compilation of references from Big Bang (esp. Lies), Super Junior (esp. Don't Don), Harry Potter, Goong OST, and other things besides. I'm so retarded, really, but easily amused.)
07. henry lau (you fuckers) - ELFs piss me off. "Only 13" gets my hackles up. I support Henry Lau, you fuckers. :)
And now, like five freaking million Super Junior recs. aslkfjslk I don't know how this happened. SuJu fandom, stop being so prolific!
40 SUPER JUNIOR FIC RECS
title: apologetic silences by
ivybox
stats: KiHae, PG, angst
summary: he hates the sound of you walking away.
reaction: Uhh...I forgot why I wanted to rec this (this was from months ago) except that it was very well-written KiHae. It's also rather ouchful (which we all know isn't usually my thing), but in that inescapable way. Um, please form your own thoughts about this. I'm just pointing you in its direction because I honestly can't remember what pinged me the first time around.
title: Apples by
sukichul
stats: KangTeuk (KyuMin), PG, fluff
summary: This takes place after the accident while Kyu and Teukie were recovering, but this is actually a happy hospital fic!
reaction: Ahahaha, okay, sorry, I'm so lame and retarded and so easily won over by silly fics when they're KT. So this is recced because 1) I'm a total KT whore, 2) this was cute, and 3) KYUMIN.
title: As Backwards as a Caveman by
dokutoku_ai
stats: KangTeuk, PG, humor
summary: If Kangin was any slower, he'd be living in a cave.
reaction: The title first caught my eye (and then the pairing). This fic is hilarious and I want to pinch its cheeks and cuddle it and pimp it to the world, which I am attempting to do right now. It features all of SuJu and they are all funny and cute and poor Kangin is so clueless. It's so precious, in a totally hysterical way.
title: blowjobs in public places by
loser_no_jutsu [locked]
stats: KangTeuk, R, humor/smut
summary: see title
reaction: asjdlfskjdflask. I requested this for the meme and she killed me with it. I'm so, so sorry to rec locked things (it's her right to keep her writing locked, which I respect, but I'm sorry I keep trying to link you to it). It's so worth it though. She writes a perfect balance of humor, lightheartedness, and hot, hot smut. I kind of shrieked with laughter at the opening paragraphs and then my mind dissolved at the incredible interaction that was her KT. ♥
title: Blue Striped Ties and Curfews by
fading_sun_sock
stats: KiHae, PG-13, humor, HP!verse
summary: “Ravenclaw,” he reminds him, tucking the wand neatly in his own pocket. (“more like Slytherin,” Kibum coughs.)
reaction: THE GLORY OF HP!VERSE. This time featuring Ravenclaw!Hae being sneaky and brilliant in a combination of house traits. Plus making out in the library. Oooh, you know you want to read this.
title: Calendar by
risabet
stats: Eeteuk/Eeteuk, OT13, PG, gen/fluff
summary: Eeteuk reflects over some of the good times.
reaction: I love leader-sshi and I love fics that show how everyone else loves him too. This is cute and extremely heartwarming. I dwell too much sometimes on how hard fame must be and how much they must have to sacrifice as celebrities, but fics like these remind me that there are good times and memories they treasure and would never give up. ♥ Oh SuJu, you are one big happy (gay) family and I love you so much.
title: The Countdown to Forever by
fading_sun_sock
stats: KangTeuk, TeukChul, PG, angst, HP!verse
summary: This is the only way to go. It never would have worked.
reaction: YES YOU READ THAT RIGHT. THIS IS HARRY POTTER VERSE. AND IT IS BEAUTIFUL. Beautifully painful, with the star-crossed love of Slytherin!Teuk and Gryffindor!Kangin and the complete and utter house loyalty that Slytherin demands. There is beautiful TeukChul friendship and more, with a cameo from Slytherin!Hae who makes my heart dokidoki~. I suck at this rec, wow, but it's so well-written and HP!verse, even if it breaks my heart completely. (But possessive!Heechul made me happy.)
title: The coupling of Names and Other Things by
dear_whimsy
stats: KiHae, PG, humor
summary: In which Donghae disagrees on relationship roles.
reaction: Hysterical and cute and I will never tire of fandom!Hae who is so adorable and clueless but also a really good at sex. Such a lovely paradox. KiHae is wonderful and hot and needs more smut written for it.
title: The Cure for Lesbian Bed Death by
halcyon_morn
stats: EunHae(/Min), R, humor
summary: Hyukjae goes to Sungmin for advice, because Sungmin is a whore, at least to the extent that a box full of puppy dogs and bunny rabbits and babies with angel wings can be a whore.
reaction: ...I don't know what to say about this except that it's hot and hysterical at the same time. Oh my god, I love Sungmin. And the very concept of EunHae getting old and married and needing to spice up their sex lives--alskfjlskd ahahaha. Ahahahah. Yeah. Color me ridiculously amused and entertained, and then waylaid by the hot.
title: The Dynamics of Hankyungese by
fading_sun_sock
stats: HanChul, PG, gen
summary: “Hyung,” Kibum said, sounding slightly exasperated. “You know you’re the only one who understands Hankyungese.”
reaction: I've mentioned before, I'm sure, my eternal love for HanChul friendship and relationship? Yeah, this fic conveys a lot of that--the way Heechul and Hankyung understand each other without words (and sometimes with a lot of words), Heechul's possessiveness over Hankyung, Hankyung's conflict between his homes--ugh, this fic breaks me. It references EHB7 (whee) and other things, which make it all the more real and believable, and oh it kills me because I love love love HanChul dynamics. So much.
title: Faith by
joongie33
stats: SiChul, PG-13, angst/introspection
summary: Heechul knew about Siwon's strong devotion to his faith.
reaction: I told someone in a comment elsewhere that I would never tire of religious!Siwon. I was referring mostly to using it as a funny plot device but it's true in a serious light too; I appreciate authors who truly explore the complexity of faith and any relationship Siwon might try to have with any of the other members. I liked this piece especially because it was Heechul, the most atheist of them all, and I think she really got him down. I like how Heechul is fluttering on the edges of maybe, maybe seeing what Siwon sees, and how the end turns it around totally, so definitively Heechul, set in his own beliefs.
title: Fantasies by
hoyah
stats: CinHae, R, smut
summary: Rella in the shower fantasizing about Donghae. (summary mine)
reaction: Ugh, years old but I had to rec it because there's not enough CinHae in the world and not enough of it is smut. Please enjoy Rella in the shower fantasizing about Donghae. Yum.
title: From All the Waiting by
loser_no_jutsu [locked]
stats: KangTeuk, PG-13, fluff/humor
summary: The first thing Kangin thinks is, boys shouldn't wear chapstick. The second thing he thinks is, God, I wish I was chapstick.
reaction: This is a locked fic, for which I'm sorry, but the caliber of writing in this fic deserves a rec. Plus it's high-caliber KangTeuk, so you know I am utterly weak to it. There is nervous awkwardness in this fic, and the uncertain desire, and it was all perfect. Both Kangin and Teukie were so cute and stupid and in love. The little details in the way they touched each other were gorgeous--oh. KangTeuk should be like this all the time.
title: Fuck by
lalapop
stats: KangTeuk, KangChul (EunHae, HanChul), NC-17, angst/smut
summary: He still gravitates towards you on shows, in public, and you take his hand because it's there and you think you feel him shake sometimes and you think that his smile is so real that it hurts you to look at it.
reaction: This is a rather...dark fic. It's broken and unhappy and full of sex that does not bring fuzzy glowing feelings. I kept thinking about leaving a comment but I couldn't find the right words, but-- it's not as complicated as it appears, but it's layered too. It's a really interesting concept and idea; I wish she could tighten up some of the mechanical issues, because then it would be a mindblowingly fantastic fic.
title: Glow (or 4 times Donghae logic rules over all other logic, and one time where HyukMin rules it all) by
24smurfs4u
stats: KiHae, PG-13, humor
summary: KiHae featuring gay cats and the awesomeness of HyukMin. (summary mine)
reaction: Um...I will give you that this is not the most amazing thing ever written. I will give you that it needs a lot of mechanical aid. But, um, it's really hideously adorable. I have this gaping soft spot for KiHae, it's really obvious, isn't it? There are some really, really funny scenes in this. Really.
title: have a wish or two or three by
puppycadet
stats: Shindong, Eeteuk, PG, humor
summary: Considering that he had been alone before his bedroom had been filled with a cloud of smoke; other voices were more than a little alarming.
reaction: I don't want to give it away but this is kind of the key part of the rec: genie!Teukie. ASLKFJDLKJ. I'm dead, dying, so knocked over by her creativity and cleverness and writing. Oh my god, this is hysterical and amazing and I want a genie!Teuk too, please!
title: It's Always Special With You by
facelesspicture
stats: KiHae, R, fluff
summary: Only single people are allowed to kill Zerg on Valentine's Day, damnit.
reaction: Ahaha, see how late I am with fic recs? They've really built up. But this is well-written KiHae, very enjoyable, very fun. Lots of video-game-playing!Kibum, which I always enjoy, and adorable!Hae, and a little bit of meddlesome!Heechul at the end. Hurray!
title: Just a Spoonful of Sugar by
overlysmitten
stats: KiHae, PG, fluff, schoolboys!AU
summary: Kibum just needs two things in the morning: Kibum time and a medium black coffee with a bit of cream and no sugar. Donghae, clearly, doesn’t understand this.
reaction: I don't know why this didn't get recced earlier. Huh. Well, this is fun and cute and features three of my favorite things: long-suffering!Kibum, adorably peristent!Donghae, and coffee. Mmm, coffee is a wonderful thing. I like a sly and playful Donghae. I think we should invest more in this. :D
title: Lick by
i_shiki
stats: HanChul, PG, gen
summary: Heechul's way of helping out. (summary mine)
reaction: Refreshingly non-smutty interpretation of the theme. Capitalizes on an old Chunji conversation that proved Heechul's amazing friendship to Hankyung once again for me. I adore HanChul relationship, I do.
title: Loved Best by
sapphira_angel
stats: KyuTeuk, PG, fluff/humor
summary: In which Leeteuk fails at being the image of an ideal parent, and Kyuhyun insists that he's loved best.
reaction: I love KyuTeuk. And I don't care what she says about this piece and her ability to write drabbles, this is perfect. It treats Kyuhyun as an adult despite his being the youngest of the group; it treats Leeteuk as the self-deprecating doubter he always is, only still cute and laughing and mothering. It references both EHB12 and Change (both of which make me a happy fangirl), and it is pretty much gold through and through. Gah, I love this so much. Go read it and give it the attention and love it deserves!
title: Marry U by
himekohimura
stats: KiHae, PG, humor/fluff
summary: Donghae hates losing.
reaction: Ahahahahaha. Omg! So cute, so incredibly cute and funny. Oh KiHae, please always be cute and funny (unless you are giving me porn in which case you are allowed to be smoking hot). Gah, this was hilarious and excellent and made me roll with laughter. I love Donghae. I love Yesung. I love Heechul. I love everyone!
title: A Matter of Kisses by
avirjin
stats: KangTeuk, PG, drama/romance, schoolboys!AU
summary: In which Park Jungsu is the playful 'bad' kid and Kim Youngwoon is the head of the School Disciplinary Committee.
reaction: Holy crap. I am weak for schoolboys!AU like you have no idea--it was probably all the BL manga that did it to me. Kangin as part of the Disciplinary Committee kind of kills me with glee and amusement, though, especially in his relationship with everyone else. The KT is flirty and perfect, hitting just the right notes of schoolboy interest without getting too--I don't know. ::flaily hands:: A slight bit of angst and misunderstanding as all schoolboys' love stories must have, lots of kisses, and a cute resolution. I love this fic, it's adorable. I wish more people wrote schoolboys!AUs. :(
title: A Matter of Time by
taylormercury
stats: ShiHae, R, smut
summary: He's been trying to seduce you for awhile, it's only a matter of time before you give in.
reaction: Hm, also old, but for the people who have trouble trawling for fic. This is sexy ShiHae and that is all you need to know, ohoho! I mean, yes, it's also well-written and kind of tragic, but please ignore that part in favor of the hot. I mean, I'm not fixating...::shifty look::
title: maudlin midnight by
ianinna
stats: KangTeuk (KyuMin), PG, um :D
summary: something is wrong. something is VERY wrong.
reaction: I saw this one coming just because I read another fic like it, but it doesn't really take away my enjoyment. Worried!protective!Kangin ftw~ ♥ And then the ending, ahaha.
title: Mending Bridges by
butterflyweb and
nemesis_cry
stats: ShiHan, R, drama/angst, Jang Ri In's MV!verse
summary: Picking up where the gunshot left off and continuing down one possible route. What if Hankyung wasn't killed? What if Siwon just got the whole thing horribly, horribly wrong?
reaction: I can't be coherent about this fic twice in one day so let me just c/p my comment:
Okay, okay, totally weeping and hurting but incredibly happy right now. The MVs were brilliant but they were awful for the heart, and this fic was the perfect remedy. Fuck that, it's the epitome of MVverse fic and nothing will ever top it. The two of you captured the entire feel of the story, of the ties and friendships between the three (thank you for not neglecting Yeonhee or her importance to either of them while not making her a major sticking point the obviously-destined ShiHan). I am also kind of incoherent over Siwon's personality because I think you pinpointed it, the mix of arrogance and neediness, the cold mask he wears while pushing people he loves away but the way he loves to touch when he gets a hold of them. It's just--so--gah. Not the Siwon of RL of course, king of skinship and puppyish adorability, but the perfect Siwon of the MV.
I like their fighting because it hurts, like it should. I like Hankyung's insecurities and doubts and unhappiness, because it rings true. I like the references to heroes and their dance troupe and performances. And boooyy do I like the sex. ♥
But it's really the story that makes it. It's the relationships and the hurt and the gradual realization that maybe it wasn't as it seemed. It's more than about just the ShiHan, it's about Hankyung and Siwon as individuals, reacting to the events of the MVs. This is beautiful, truly. I adore it.
title: Of Broom Cabinets and Contradictions by
fading_sun_sock
stats: Donghae-centric, PG, humor/awesomeness, HP!verse
summary: Donghae is pretty sure it didn’t take any of the other boys this long to be sorted, and for a moment he fears that the hat will never decide where he belongs and he’ll just get thrown out of the castle all together because he doesn’t fit in anywhere—
reaction: ALSKDJFDLK HARRY POTTER/SUPER JUNIOR FUSION. BE STILL MY HEART. Okay, obviously, you've already seen the other two recs for HP!verse, but this was the one that began it all. Donghae getting sorted! And because Kendra couldn't decide where to put him, she's going to write him in all of them. Gleeeee. ♥
title: Of Eeteuk's messy piles and lack of calmness on a stressful morning by
wordplay712
stats: KangTeuk, PG-13, fluff/romance
summary: Eeteuk is a mess, sometimes losing his own mind in the process of losing everything else, but it's okay.
reaction: The first sentence won me over because I can totally see Teukie as this person. I believe it. And that makes the rest even better to me, because Kangin is the type to be there to pick up the pieces for him. Even without the romance, the platonic relationship between Leeteuk and Kangin is dependent like this. It's kind of beautiful, but I'm a fangirl. It's kind of unhealthy, but it's real, and people depend on people.
title: Of Video Games and Religion by
dokutoku_ai
stats: EunHae, PG-13, humor
summary: Who'd have thought that video games could lead to this?
reaction: I love the retarded banter of best friends. Donghae and Eunhyuk are so, so cute and stupid and boyish and I fangirl madly. This fic stole my heart and I'm having trouble getting it back because I love boys playing video games, being stupid, cheating, kissing, yes yes yes. All that. Also, best video game advice ever: don't crash, you complete idiot
title: A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words by
halcyon_morn
stats: SiHan(/Chul), NC-17, humor/smut
summary: Siwon and Hangeng always make out when they're drunk.
reaction: Favorite OT3. Having sex. There's a video camera involved in here too. askdflkd guh, please don't expect a coherent rec, okay? Just. Wow.
title: Playing for Keeps by
phasera
stats: KiHae, PG-13, drama, casino!AU
summary: While gambling with Donghae, Kibum discovers that there might be more at stake than just his job.
reaction: I was super intrigued and engaged by this AU. Gambling and gang leaders and nightclubs are hot, and made hotter by the boys in them. I loved Donghae’s irreverent personality, easy, careless, casual, but sharp all the same. I loved Kibum too—trying to be so serious, weak for Donghae, sulking a little inside, mostly responsible, hot in a suit (uh, I mean). There's a lot of detail into the environment and each action and word exchanged between Donghae and Kibum, which paints a very vivid picture of what’s going on and where. Also lots of teasing glimpses of longer backstory, of the bigger story that we never quite get to see, but it's all so fascinating. I hope to see more of this AU, so I'm super happy that she says she wants to continue after she finished her Goongverse. :D
title: Ponytail Pulling by
i_shiki
stats: Eunhyuk/Heechul, PG-13, humor
summary: "You are so fucked, Lee Hyukjae. So fucked," Heechul hissed.
reaction: I don't know where this pairing came out of but this fic hit me over the head with it and made me fall in love. Heechul is priceless and cruel, as always, and Hyukkie--well, he puts up with so much abuse in SuJu and in fics, the poor thing. I am so easily entertained by his tragic life and also Heechul's princessy ways. Also, I kind of died multiple times at the phone call to Hyuk's mother telling not-quite-lies. You have to read it to understand and appreciate properly. But omg, ahahaha.
title: push by
i_shiki
stats: Hankyung/Hyukjae (past HyukSu), PG-13, UST
summary: He loves watching Hangeng like this.
reaction: Hyukjae plays semi-voyeur here but it's hot. Hankyung is hot, all the time, I believe this. The flickering memories of HyukSu are also hot, as are Hyukjae's "x-rated thoughts" about him and Hannie, haha. Man, I randomly like this pairing a lot.
title: replacement by
facetiously
stats: KiChul, PG-13, humor
summary: kibum knows this is a bad idea.
reaction: Pointless entertainment. I'm amused. But Heechul always amuses me. So I'm easy, so what?
title: rinse and repeat by
puppycadet
stats: Eeteuk/Eeteuk (KangTeuk), PG, humor/fluff
summary: Looking back on it, he couldn't help but to think that was probably where he went wrong.
reaction: Everything she writes is so damned original, I can't stand it. She takes the prompts everyone else has used and turns them into something so creative, so refreshing, so amazing. I love this fic. I can't decide whether to be horrified or gleeful at what Teukie has to go through, but it's amazing and perfect all the same. She writes the crazy situation convincingly realistic, but without going heavy on the possible-angst aspect, for which I am always glad. (Plus, KT! :D)
title: Sickness by
jaded_skys
stats: Kangin/Kyuhyun gen, KyuMin, PG-13, college!AU
summary: Kyuhyun at his first univeristy party. (summary mine)
reaction: alskfjlsk drunken SuJu boys at a college party, oh my God. I'm so happy she's turning this into a series because, glee, glee. Her Kyuhyun is adorable and such a freshman; her Sungmin is non-girly (except for his drinks) and aggressive; Heechul is touchy (yum); and Kangin is hot hot hot. He would be the best, most solicitous drunk college boy ever. ♥
title: Sooner Than Later by
lampshadehat
stats: CinHae, PG, angst
summary: Donghae comes home. (summary mine)
reaction: This drabble broke my heart into a million pieces. Twice. Because I hurt every time someone mentions Donghae and his father, and it's worse when someone mentions Heechul's accident right after. This is a very painful but extremely poignant drabble. Please read it. It'll make you appreciate your life.
title: Soothing by
dear_whimsy
stats: KangTeuk, PG, fluff
summary: It's snowing.
reaction: It is so cute and happy and fluffy and heartwarming, I am incoherent over it. It's really just a small piece of writing but it really struck me when I read it (because I was incoherent with happiness over something else but hey, still awesome writing). What mostly got me was the touches, the quiet, wordless touches they always seem to share, small gestures and leaning on each other, speaking of trust and comfort and oh. I am such a KangTeuk fangirl at heart, what can I say?
title: Spinning by
luvmeanddespair
stats: ShiHan (HanChul), PG-13, angst
summary: Han Geng spins, and all Siwon can do is watch.
reaction: I am totally going to be utterly lazy and steal
dear_whimsy's comment as a rec (because she said it better than I):
He spins
First off, the repetition was beautiful. It really set the mood. Often times I think there's the possibility of it getting stagnant or whatever, but it fit absolutely beautiful here. And the break in the pattern: He stops. and immediately followed up by the reverse - it's a little breathtaking.
The characterizations were well-done too. I thought you captured Hankyung's habitual sweetness but strong stage personality very well, and Heechul was, well, Heechul.
They spin, the both of them—and it makes you so dizzy that you’re sick.
A dazzling, bittersweet, aching kind of line to end on.
title: Ubiquitous by
murasaki_plum
stats: KangTeuk, PG, fluff/humor
summary: Ubiquitous: existing or being everywhere at the same time : constantly encountered.
reaction: Because KT is everywhere, it's true. And the obvious answer...is the right one. It's gotta be. Ahahaha. I'm sorry, is my bias showing?
title: Warmth by
ff99ff
stats: KiHae, PG, movie!verse fluff
summary: Kibum has a reason why he puts up with Donghae, his lazy, unreliable roommate.
reaction: The main reason I recced this (while it is a fluff, feel-good bit of KiHae) is primarily because it's post-HS movie!verse. Oh my god, why did no one consider this before? These boys are allowed to graduate from Neul Paran! They're allowed to have a relationship after and beyond and keep it in the gloriousness that is the movie universe. I marvel at the idea.
alskfjdlks UGH I AM DONE WITH FANDOM FOR TODAY. ::collapses:: Oh, except for the part where I wrote 12 Super Junior drabbles last night and this morning. :/
12 Super Junior drabbles
pairings: HyukSu, KiHae, EunHae, CinHae, KangMin, KyuTeuk, KiHyun, SiHan, SiHanChul, SiChul, Leeteuk/everyone
rating: from PG - NC-17
genres: humor/crack to hurt/comfort and random sex too
Aaand goodnight.
These were mine:
01. asian boy band fanservice - I feel as if this should be self-explanatory. I love my Asian boybands and the way they grope each other, yay!
02. believing in true love - Sometimes I feel as if this is a lie, but mostly I believe in true love. At least for my OTPs and in my writing.
03. teukie's everything - This came right after "Kibum's smile" and "Donghae's hips". I had to include Teukie and we all know how he's my favorite and--yeah. I love it all, including his epic fail. ♥
04. various methods of procrastination - Um, if I didn't major in PoliSci and Intl Studies, I would major in this. And I would be damned good at it.
05. donghae's hips - Just watch him dance. Just do it. Guh.
06. making impenetrable fandom references - I make countless fandom references from all the fandoms I'm in, all the time. No one else gets them, it's okay. (For instance, this blog is a compilation of references from Big Bang (esp. Lies), Super Junior (esp. Don't Don), Harry Potter, Goong OST, and other things besides. I'm so retarded, really, but easily amused.)
07. henry lau (you fuckers) - ELFs piss me off. "Only 13" gets my hackles up. I support Henry Lau, you fuckers. :)
And now, like five freaking million Super Junior recs. aslkfjslk I don't know how this happened. SuJu fandom, stop being so prolific!
40 SUPER JUNIOR FIC RECS
title: apologetic silences by
stats: KiHae, PG, angst
summary: he hates the sound of you walking away.
reaction: Uhh...I forgot why I wanted to rec this (this was from months ago) except that it was very well-written KiHae. It's also rather ouchful (which we all know isn't usually my thing), but in that inescapable way. Um, please form your own thoughts about this. I'm just pointing you in its direction because I honestly can't remember what pinged me the first time around.
title: Apples by
stats: KangTeuk (KyuMin), PG, fluff
summary: This takes place after the accident while Kyu and Teukie were recovering, but this is actually a happy hospital fic!
reaction: Ahahaha, okay, sorry, I'm so lame and retarded and so easily won over by silly fics when they're KT. So this is recced because 1) I'm a total KT whore, 2) this was cute, and 3) KYUMIN.
title: As Backwards as a Caveman by
stats: KangTeuk, PG, humor
summary: If Kangin was any slower, he'd be living in a cave.
reaction: The title first caught my eye (and then the pairing). This fic is hilarious and I want to pinch its cheeks and cuddle it and pimp it to the world, which I am attempting to do right now. It features all of SuJu and they are all funny and cute and poor Kangin is so clueless. It's so precious, in a totally hysterical way.
title: blowjobs in public places by
stats: KangTeuk, R, humor/smut
summary: see title
reaction: asjdlfskjdflask. I requested this for the meme and she killed me with it. I'm so, so sorry to rec locked things (it's her right to keep her writing locked, which I respect, but I'm sorry I keep trying to link you to it). It's so worth it though. She writes a perfect balance of humor, lightheartedness, and hot, hot smut. I kind of shrieked with laughter at the opening paragraphs and then my mind dissolved at the incredible interaction that was her KT. ♥
title: Blue Striped Ties and Curfews by
stats: KiHae, PG-13, humor, HP!verse
summary: “Ravenclaw,” he reminds him, tucking the wand neatly in his own pocket. (“more like Slytherin,” Kibum coughs.)
reaction: THE GLORY OF HP!VERSE. This time featuring Ravenclaw!Hae being sneaky and brilliant in a combination of house traits. Plus making out in the library. Oooh, you know you want to read this.
title: Calendar by
stats: Eeteuk/Eeteuk, OT13, PG, gen/fluff
summary: Eeteuk reflects over some of the good times.
reaction: I love leader-sshi and I love fics that show how everyone else loves him too. This is cute and extremely heartwarming. I dwell too much sometimes on how hard fame must be and how much they must have to sacrifice as celebrities, but fics like these remind me that there are good times and memories they treasure and would never give up. ♥ Oh SuJu, you are one big happy (gay) family and I love you so much.
title: The Countdown to Forever by
stats: KangTeuk, TeukChul, PG, angst, HP!verse
summary: This is the only way to go. It never would have worked.
reaction: YES YOU READ THAT RIGHT. THIS IS HARRY POTTER VERSE. AND IT IS BEAUTIFUL. Beautifully painful, with the star-crossed love of Slytherin!Teuk and Gryffindor!Kangin and the complete and utter house loyalty that Slytherin demands. There is beautiful TeukChul friendship and more, with a cameo from Slytherin!Hae who makes my heart dokidoki~. I suck at this rec, wow, but it's so well-written and HP!verse, even if it breaks my heart completely. (But possessive!Heechul made me happy.)
title: The coupling of Names and Other Things by
stats: KiHae, PG, humor
summary: In which Donghae disagrees on relationship roles.
reaction: Hysterical and cute and I will never tire of fandom!Hae who is so adorable and clueless but also a really good at sex. Such a lovely paradox. KiHae is wonderful and hot and needs more smut written for it.
title: The Cure for Lesbian Bed Death by
stats: EunHae(/Min), R, humor
summary: Hyukjae goes to Sungmin for advice, because Sungmin is a whore, at least to the extent that a box full of puppy dogs and bunny rabbits and babies with angel wings can be a whore.
reaction: ...I don't know what to say about this except that it's hot and hysterical at the same time. Oh my god, I love Sungmin. And the very concept of EunHae getting old and married and needing to spice up their sex lives--alskfjlskd ahahaha. Ahahahah. Yeah. Color me ridiculously amused and entertained, and then waylaid by the hot.
title: The Dynamics of Hankyungese by
stats: HanChul, PG, gen
summary: “Hyung,” Kibum said, sounding slightly exasperated. “You know you’re the only one who understands Hankyungese.”
reaction: I've mentioned before, I'm sure, my eternal love for HanChul friendship and relationship? Yeah, this fic conveys a lot of that--the way Heechul and Hankyung understand each other without words (and sometimes with a lot of words), Heechul's possessiveness over Hankyung, Hankyung's conflict between his homes--ugh, this fic breaks me. It references EHB7 (whee) and other things, which make it all the more real and believable, and oh it kills me because I love love love HanChul dynamics. So much.
title: Faith by
stats: SiChul, PG-13, angst/introspection
summary: Heechul knew about Siwon's strong devotion to his faith.
reaction: I told someone in a comment elsewhere that I would never tire of religious!Siwon. I was referring mostly to using it as a funny plot device but it's true in a serious light too; I appreciate authors who truly explore the complexity of faith and any relationship Siwon might try to have with any of the other members. I liked this piece especially because it was Heechul, the most atheist of them all, and I think she really got him down. I like how Heechul is fluttering on the edges of maybe, maybe seeing what Siwon sees, and how the end turns it around totally, so definitively Heechul, set in his own beliefs.
title: Fantasies by
stats: CinHae, R, smut
summary: Rella in the shower fantasizing about Donghae. (summary mine)
reaction: Ugh, years old but I had to rec it because there's not enough CinHae in the world and not enough of it is smut. Please enjoy Rella in the shower fantasizing about Donghae. Yum.
title: From All the Waiting by
stats: KangTeuk, PG-13, fluff/humor
summary: The first thing Kangin thinks is, boys shouldn't wear chapstick. The second thing he thinks is, God, I wish I was chapstick.
reaction: This is a locked fic, for which I'm sorry, but the caliber of writing in this fic deserves a rec. Plus it's high-caliber KangTeuk, so you know I am utterly weak to it. There is nervous awkwardness in this fic, and the uncertain desire, and it was all perfect. Both Kangin and Teukie were so cute and stupid and in love. The little details in the way they touched each other were gorgeous--oh. KangTeuk should be like this all the time.
title: Fuck by
stats: KangTeuk, KangChul (EunHae, HanChul), NC-17, angst/smut
summary: He still gravitates towards you on shows, in public, and you take his hand because it's there and you think you feel him shake sometimes and you think that his smile is so real that it hurts you to look at it.
reaction: This is a rather...dark fic. It's broken and unhappy and full of sex that does not bring fuzzy glowing feelings. I kept thinking about leaving a comment but I couldn't find the right words, but-- it's not as complicated as it appears, but it's layered too. It's a really interesting concept and idea; I wish she could tighten up some of the mechanical issues, because then it would be a mindblowingly fantastic fic.
title: Glow (or 4 times Donghae logic rules over all other logic, and one time where HyukMin rules it all) by
stats: KiHae, PG-13, humor
summary: KiHae featuring gay cats and the awesomeness of HyukMin. (summary mine)
reaction: Um...I will give you that this is not the most amazing thing ever written. I will give you that it needs a lot of mechanical aid. But, um, it's really hideously adorable. I have this gaping soft spot for KiHae, it's really obvious, isn't it? There are some really, really funny scenes in this. Really.
title: have a wish or two or three by
stats: Shindong, Eeteuk, PG, humor
summary: Considering that he had been alone before his bedroom had been filled with a cloud of smoke; other voices were more than a little alarming.
reaction: I don't want to give it away but this is kind of the key part of the rec: genie!Teukie. ASLKFJDLKJ. I'm dead, dying, so knocked over by her creativity and cleverness and writing. Oh my god, this is hysterical and amazing and I want a genie!Teuk too, please!
title: It's Always Special With You by
stats: KiHae, R, fluff
summary: Only single people are allowed to kill Zerg on Valentine's Day, damnit.
reaction: Ahaha, see how late I am with fic recs? They've really built up. But this is well-written KiHae, very enjoyable, very fun. Lots of video-game-playing!Kibum, which I always enjoy, and adorable!Hae, and a little bit of meddlesome!Heechul at the end. Hurray!
title: Just a Spoonful of Sugar by
stats: KiHae, PG, fluff, schoolboys!AU
summary: Kibum just needs two things in the morning: Kibum time and a medium black coffee with a bit of cream and no sugar. Donghae, clearly, doesn’t understand this.
reaction: I don't know why this didn't get recced earlier. Huh. Well, this is fun and cute and features three of my favorite things: long-suffering!Kibum, adorably peristent!Donghae, and coffee. Mmm, coffee is a wonderful thing. I like a sly and playful Donghae. I think we should invest more in this. :D
title: Lick by
stats: HanChul, PG, gen
summary: Heechul's way of helping out. (summary mine)
reaction: Refreshingly non-smutty interpretation of the theme. Capitalizes on an old Chunji conversation that proved Heechul's amazing friendship to Hankyung once again for me. I adore HanChul relationship, I do.
title: Loved Best by
stats: KyuTeuk, PG, fluff/humor
summary: In which Leeteuk fails at being the image of an ideal parent, and Kyuhyun insists that he's loved best.
reaction: I love KyuTeuk. And I don't care what she says about this piece and her ability to write drabbles, this is perfect. It treats Kyuhyun as an adult despite his being the youngest of the group; it treats Leeteuk as the self-deprecating doubter he always is, only still cute and laughing and mothering. It references both EHB12 and Change (both of which make me a happy fangirl), and it is pretty much gold through and through. Gah, I love this so much. Go read it and give it the attention and love it deserves!
title: Marry U by
stats: KiHae, PG, humor/fluff
summary: Donghae hates losing.
reaction: Ahahahahaha. Omg! So cute, so incredibly cute and funny. Oh KiHae, please always be cute and funny (unless you are giving me porn in which case you are allowed to be smoking hot). Gah, this was hilarious and excellent and made me roll with laughter. I love Donghae. I love Yesung. I love Heechul. I love everyone!
title: A Matter of Kisses by
stats: KangTeuk, PG, drama/romance, schoolboys!AU
summary: In which Park Jungsu is the playful 'bad' kid and Kim Youngwoon is the head of the School Disciplinary Committee.
reaction: Holy crap. I am weak for schoolboys!AU like you have no idea--it was probably all the BL manga that did it to me. Kangin as part of the Disciplinary Committee kind of kills me with glee and amusement, though, especially in his relationship with everyone else. The KT is flirty and perfect, hitting just the right notes of schoolboy interest without getting too--I don't know. ::flaily hands:: A slight bit of angst and misunderstanding as all schoolboys' love stories must have, lots of kisses, and a cute resolution. I love this fic, it's adorable. I wish more people wrote schoolboys!AUs. :(
title: A Matter of Time by
stats: ShiHae, R, smut
summary: He's been trying to seduce you for awhile, it's only a matter of time before you give in.
reaction: Hm, also old, but for the people who have trouble trawling for fic. This is sexy ShiHae and that is all you need to know, ohoho! I mean, yes, it's also well-written and kind of tragic, but please ignore that part in favor of the hot. I mean, I'm not fixating...::shifty look::
title: maudlin midnight by
stats: KangTeuk (KyuMin), PG, um :D
summary: something is wrong. something is VERY wrong.
reaction: I saw this one coming just because I read another fic like it, but it doesn't really take away my enjoyment. Worried!protective!Kangin ftw~ ♥ And then the ending, ahaha.
title: Mending Bridges by
stats: ShiHan, R, drama/angst, Jang Ri In's MV!verse
summary: Picking up where the gunshot left off and continuing down one possible route. What if Hankyung wasn't killed? What if Siwon just got the whole thing horribly, horribly wrong?
reaction: I can't be coherent about this fic twice in one day so let me just c/p my comment:
Okay, okay, totally weeping and hurting but incredibly happy right now. The MVs were brilliant but they were awful for the heart, and this fic was the perfect remedy. Fuck that, it's the epitome of MVverse fic and nothing will ever top it. The two of you captured the entire feel of the story, of the ties and friendships between the three (thank you for not neglecting Yeonhee or her importance to either of them while not making her a major sticking point the obviously-destined ShiHan). I am also kind of incoherent over Siwon's personality because I think you pinpointed it, the mix of arrogance and neediness, the cold mask he wears while pushing people he loves away but the way he loves to touch when he gets a hold of them. It's just--so--gah. Not the Siwon of RL of course, king of skinship and puppyish adorability, but the perfect Siwon of the MV.
I like their fighting because it hurts, like it should. I like Hankyung's insecurities and doubts and unhappiness, because it rings true. I like the references to heroes and their dance troupe and performances. And boooyy do I like the sex. ♥
But it's really the story that makes it. It's the relationships and the hurt and the gradual realization that maybe it wasn't as it seemed. It's more than about just the ShiHan, it's about Hankyung and Siwon as individuals, reacting to the events of the MVs. This is beautiful, truly. I adore it.
title: Of Broom Cabinets and Contradictions by
stats: Donghae-centric, PG, humor/awesomeness, HP!verse
summary: Donghae is pretty sure it didn’t take any of the other boys this long to be sorted, and for a moment he fears that the hat will never decide where he belongs and he’ll just get thrown out of the castle all together because he doesn’t fit in anywhere—
reaction: ALSKDJFDLK HARRY POTTER/SUPER JUNIOR FUSION. BE STILL MY HEART. Okay, obviously, you've already seen the other two recs for HP!verse, but this was the one that began it all. Donghae getting sorted! And because Kendra couldn't decide where to put him, she's going to write him in all of them. Gleeeee. ♥
title: Of Eeteuk's messy piles and lack of calmness on a stressful morning by
stats: KangTeuk, PG-13, fluff/romance
summary: Eeteuk is a mess, sometimes losing his own mind in the process of losing everything else, but it's okay.
reaction: The first sentence won me over because I can totally see Teukie as this person. I believe it. And that makes the rest even better to me, because Kangin is the type to be there to pick up the pieces for him. Even without the romance, the platonic relationship between Leeteuk and Kangin is dependent like this. It's kind of beautiful, but I'm a fangirl. It's kind of unhealthy, but it's real, and people depend on people.
title: Of Video Games and Religion by
stats: EunHae, PG-13, humor
summary: Who'd have thought that video games could lead to this?
reaction: I love the retarded banter of best friends. Donghae and Eunhyuk are so, so cute and stupid and boyish and I fangirl madly. This fic stole my heart and I'm having trouble getting it back because I love boys playing video games, being stupid, cheating, kissing, yes yes yes. All that. Also, best video game advice ever: don't crash, you complete idiot
title: A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words by
stats: SiHan(/Chul), NC-17, humor/smut
summary: Siwon and Hangeng always make out when they're drunk.
reaction: Favorite OT3. Having sex. There's a video camera involved in here too. askdflkd guh, please don't expect a coherent rec, okay? Just. Wow.
title: Playing for Keeps by
stats: KiHae, PG-13, drama, casino!AU
summary: While gambling with Donghae, Kibum discovers that there might be more at stake than just his job.
reaction: I was super intrigued and engaged by this AU. Gambling and gang leaders and nightclubs are hot, and made hotter by the boys in them. I loved Donghae’s irreverent personality, easy, careless, casual, but sharp all the same. I loved Kibum too—trying to be so serious, weak for Donghae, sulking a little inside, mostly responsible, hot in a suit (uh, I mean). There's a lot of detail into the environment and each action and word exchanged between Donghae and Kibum, which paints a very vivid picture of what’s going on and where. Also lots of teasing glimpses of longer backstory, of the bigger story that we never quite get to see, but it's all so fascinating. I hope to see more of this AU, so I'm super happy that she says she wants to continue after she finished her Goongverse. :D
title: Ponytail Pulling by
stats: Eunhyuk/Heechul, PG-13, humor
summary: "You are so fucked, Lee Hyukjae. So fucked," Heechul hissed.
reaction: I don't know where this pairing came out of but this fic hit me over the head with it and made me fall in love. Heechul is priceless and cruel, as always, and Hyukkie--well, he puts up with so much abuse in SuJu and in fics, the poor thing. I am so easily entertained by his tragic life and also Heechul's princessy ways. Also, I kind of died multiple times at the phone call to Hyuk's mother telling not-quite-lies. You have to read it to understand and appreciate properly. But omg, ahahaha.
title: push by
stats: Hankyung/Hyukjae (past HyukSu), PG-13, UST
summary: He loves watching Hangeng like this.
reaction: Hyukjae plays semi-voyeur here but it's hot. Hankyung is hot, all the time, I believe this. The flickering memories of HyukSu are also hot, as are Hyukjae's "x-rated thoughts" about him and Hannie, haha. Man, I randomly like this pairing a lot.
title: replacement by
stats: KiChul, PG-13, humor
summary: kibum knows this is a bad idea.
reaction: Pointless entertainment. I'm amused. But Heechul always amuses me. So I'm easy, so what?
title: rinse and repeat by
stats: Eeteuk/Eeteuk (KangTeuk), PG, humor/fluff
summary: Looking back on it, he couldn't help but to think that was probably where he went wrong.
reaction: Everything she writes is so damned original, I can't stand it. She takes the prompts everyone else has used and turns them into something so creative, so refreshing, so amazing. I love this fic. I can't decide whether to be horrified or gleeful at what Teukie has to go through, but it's amazing and perfect all the same. She writes the crazy situation convincingly realistic, but without going heavy on the possible-angst aspect, for which I am always glad. (Plus, KT! :D)
title: Sickness by
stats: Kangin/Kyuhyun gen, KyuMin, PG-13, college!AU
summary: Kyuhyun at his first univeristy party. (summary mine)
reaction: alskfjlsk drunken SuJu boys at a college party, oh my God. I'm so happy she's turning this into a series because, glee, glee. Her Kyuhyun is adorable and such a freshman; her Sungmin is non-girly (except for his drinks) and aggressive; Heechul is touchy (yum); and Kangin is hot hot hot. He would be the best, most solicitous drunk college boy ever. ♥
title: Sooner Than Later by
stats: CinHae, PG, angst
summary: Donghae comes home. (summary mine)
reaction: This drabble broke my heart into a million pieces. Twice. Because I hurt every time someone mentions Donghae and his father, and it's worse when someone mentions Heechul's accident right after. This is a very painful but extremely poignant drabble. Please read it. It'll make you appreciate your life.
title: Soothing by
stats: KangTeuk, PG, fluff
summary: It's snowing.
reaction: It is so cute and happy and fluffy and heartwarming, I am incoherent over it. It's really just a small piece of writing but it really struck me when I read it (because I was incoherent with happiness over something else but hey, still awesome writing). What mostly got me was the touches, the quiet, wordless touches they always seem to share, small gestures and leaning on each other, speaking of trust and comfort and oh. I am such a KangTeuk fangirl at heart, what can I say?
title: Spinning by
stats: ShiHan (HanChul), PG-13, angst
summary: Han Geng spins, and all Siwon can do is watch.
reaction: I am totally going to be utterly lazy and steal
He spins
First off, the repetition was beautiful. It really set the mood. Often times I think there's the possibility of it getting stagnant or whatever, but it fit absolutely beautiful here. And the break in the pattern: He stops. and immediately followed up by the reverse - it's a little breathtaking.
The characterizations were well-done too. I thought you captured Hankyung's habitual sweetness but strong stage personality very well, and Heechul was, well, Heechul.
They spin, the both of them—and it makes you so dizzy that you’re sick.
A dazzling, bittersweet, aching kind of line to end on.
title: Ubiquitous by
stats: KangTeuk, PG, fluff/humor
summary: Ubiquitous: existing or being everywhere at the same time : constantly encountered.
reaction: Because KT is everywhere, it's true. And the obvious answer...is the right one. It's gotta be. Ahahaha. I'm sorry, is my bias showing?
title: Warmth by
stats: KiHae, PG, movie!verse fluff
summary: Kibum has a reason why he puts up with Donghae, his lazy, unreliable roommate.
reaction: The main reason I recced this (while it is a fluff, feel-good bit of KiHae) is primarily because it's post-HS movie!verse. Oh my god, why did no one consider this before? These boys are allowed to graduate from Neul Paran! They're allowed to have a relationship after and beyond and keep it in the gloriousness that is the movie universe. I marvel at the idea.
alskfjdlks UGH I AM DONE WITH FANDOM FOR TODAY. ::collapses:: Oh, except for the part where I wrote 12 Super Junior drabbles last night and this morning. :/
12 Super Junior drabbles
pairings: HyukSu, KiHae, EunHae, CinHae, KangMin, KyuTeuk, KiHyun, SiHan, SiHanChul, SiChul, Leeteuk/everyone
rating: from PG - NC-17
genres: humor/crack to hurt/comfort and random sex too
Aaand goodnight.
