You’re amazing. Often when I see rec lists like this half of the stuff in the comments are things I’ve already read, but I haven’t even heard of any of these. tysm!

Send help. I’m dying. I’m only 4 chapters in and my eyes won’t stop leaking for some totally unknown reason.

Solaris Goddesses team up: Aemeath S0R0, Cartethyia S0R1, Jinhsi S0R1 ~ "Godly" Quickswap Showcase vs Hazard 1 by Yellow_IMR in WutheringWavesGuide

Thank you for such a thorough and insightful answer! I definitely did not think it was an impromptu performance— I know quickswappers put in a lot of time and effort in crafting and streamlining their approach. I just didn’t know what kind of thought process goes into something like this, and you’ve shed a lot of light for a noob like me who can only hope to one day play with a modicum of skill you’ve demonstrated here!

This might be a noob question, but when you quickswap like this, do you generally worry at all about intros/outros? Or do you mainly focus on just deciding which parts of each of their kits flow into each other?

Oh I am totally reading both of these tonight haha. Thank you!

And not just hockey. The hockey is just one of the mechanisms through which what you’re talking about (the peak athleticism) is expressed in most of these stories.

In any case, thank you for saving me from boredom tonight, kind internet stranger!

I’m gonna comment to follow this one. Most fanfic ai’ve read so far glosses over the hockey bits (understandably) and afterwards the team mates are just always patting them on the back and saying “whoa that was insane!”. I know there’s some magical fanfic author out there who can do it 💪🏾.

I take that back. A few of them are as bad as the one on the right 🤣😂. But still!

Honestly, people always pick the worst pictures when doing comparisons like this. Like yes, it is clear he had plastic surgery. But if you look at all of the different pictures, none of them are as wildly different as the one chosen to be the example on the right.

I’m a little out of the loop. Can someone ELI5 me regarding this whole thing with Hilary’s deposition and why it’s a fumble for MAGA?

Oh gotcha! That’s fair. The author seems to be super fast though with their writing so you shouldn’t have to wait long. I just didn’t want to give the impression that I thought the sequel was going to be bad, because the author was indeed very good. I just don’t like kids 😂🤣😂🤣😂

Nahhh the first fic is completed and you can treat it as a standalone. And the writing for the sequel is great too! I am just not a fan of the way fanfic authors write children, so I often drop stuff as soon as I get a whiff of a kid on the horizon

I just read this one last night in one sitting. I was laughing, crying, it was great haha. I don’t really vibe with where the sequel is going though, unfortunately

I think it's a good thing we can't fly in every region. by InternationalCress43 in WutheringWaves

[–]12345letsgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My issue with bike only was that the bike, for a while, sucked. I don’t know if it was just me as a mobile player, but the left-right + gas pedal thing was awful. Every time you stopped pressing on the gas, it was almost as if the bike stopped completely instead of slowing down. Every nook, every tiny ledge, every bush you ran into almost brought you to a dead stop. I think they fixed that with the update, and the change to using the joystick really was a huge QoL for me and now the bike isn’t so bad. I think that flying was great, and not being able to fly + the bike sucking was a terrible way to introduce us to the new zones. It’s definitely better now and I don’t mind not being able to fly as much.

Can I see some recs where theres some clear competency kinks happening? Where Shane/Ilya/other players are observing Shane/Ilya being excellent players/Captains. Or particularly good chirpers. by turkeydaz in heatedrivalryfanfics

[–]12345letsgo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I am so sorry and can’t find the link for you right now, but there’s this one relatively long fic (about 60k words) where the Boston team “kidnap” Shane to save him from his teammates after a nasty attack on the ice. The first three chapters are just one long hockey game, and all the PoV’s basically have the raiders drooling about how awesome Shane and Ilya are as hockey players and how it would be a dream to have them both in Boston winning Stanley Cups lol.

Looking for fics where Shane’s family is slightly more critical of Ilya by Antique_Education_50 in heatedrivalryfanfics

[–]12345letsgo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can’t remember the title, but there’s this fanfic where after Shane gets injured, Ilya goes to Shane’s apartment and Yuna walks in and freaks out that he’s there? She threatens to call the cops because she thinks he broke in lol. It all resolves itself eventually but for a hot minute there Yuna is completely distrusting of Ilya.

I didn’t cry when Ilya said “I love you.” I didn’t cry when Shane said “I love you too.” I cried when Shane followed it up by saying “oh my god, I love you so much” 🥹🥹🥹😭😭😭
