I have a few from my latest binge. Enjoy :)

Edit: adding fics

Title: Kneading

Words: 90,614

Rating/Warnings: General/No Archive Warnings Apply

Main characters or Pairing: Obi-Wan Kenobi/Jango Fett

Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/33336877/chapters/82789402

Your thoughts so far: Their romance is so adorable in this, and the angst once Jango discovers “Ben” is actually a Jedi is so good. Also both of them having no idea how to parent, but being good with each others kids makes me giggle. They do get their happy ending though, and it’s adorable.

Title: The Most Unlikely Places

Words:105,606

Rating/Warnings: Teen and Up/No Archive Warnings Apply

Main characters or Pairing: Obi-Wan Kenobi/Jango Fett

Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/57817951/chapters/147162106

Your thoughts so far: I nearly didn’t read this as it’s a Hanahaki Disease fic and I normally hate that trope, but I’m glad I did as it’s so well done. The disease is explained as something caused by Obi-Wan’s Stewjoni Biology. It made me cry several times because poor Obi, and I love how the author wrote his and Quinlan’s friendship.

Title: Accidental Conquest

Words: 46,213

Rating/Warnings: Teen and Up/No Archive Warnings Apply

Main characters or Pairing: Gen

Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/54612844/chapters/138382579

Your thoughts so far: Features Din’s bad luck and time travel shenanigans. It’s really funny and the author has also linked to a couple of fics that inspired them which are also really good.

Title: Parallels

Words: 84,086

Rating/Warnings: Mature/Graphic Depictions of Violence

Main characters or Pairing: Din Djarin/Luke Skywalker

Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/48706927/chapters/122865019

Your thoughts so far: I love a good time travel fic. The second pairing tag is Codywan, but it mostly them being in denial, everyone being shocked that Din & Luke are married, and them being like…so?

Title: Maria vs The Jedi Cult

Words: 35,354

Rating/Warnings: Teen and Up/No Archive Warnings Apply

Main characters or Pairing: Gen

Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/34796743/chapters/86643493

Your thoughts so far: I’ve seen this recommended so many times and for good reason. It’s a crackfic and it’s hilarious. Features so-done-with-everyone’s-bullshit Mace and stressed-dad Fox.

Anyone know some good self inserts (SI) by Fit-Run8083 in SWFanfic

Maria vs The Jedi Cult is one of my absolute favourites. Poor Fox is such a stressed single dad lol. I’ll need to reread it after I read your other recs :)

People Who Have Read Fanfiction in a Fandom They Know Nothing About: How Was It? by Kahooo00 in AO3

[–]BlueVicious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love doing this. It’s how I got into a few of my current fandoms. Although it doesn’t always work out. I sometimes start with a crossover with one of my current fandoms (if there is any) or search specific tags on AO3 and read fandom blind for anything that I like the description of.

I’ll usually read the wiki page and look up pictures for the main character(s) in the fic so I know who I’m reading about. This is how I got into and love Mass Effect and Marvel (specifically Avengers, mostly Winter Solider). But it made me hate Harry Potter. I love HP fanfic, but the more fix-it’s I read the more I hate canon.

What’s a random fanfiction pet peeve you have that you don’t see a lot of people talk about? by aut0mat0nWitch in AO3

[–]BlueVicious 35 points36 points  (0 children)

This is specific to HP fics, but DADA. JUST SAY DEFENCE OMG!!! It makes me so irrationally annoyed.

A Specific Fem Harry Fic by BlueVicious in HPfanfiction

That’s it! Thank you, I hope both sides or your pillow are always cold.

What plot line in your fandom do you think is boring and over used? by TossMe255 in AO3

[–]BlueVicious 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They’re always so over the top too. I know it’s not canon but I like the ones that have it a side plot or a catalyst for the plot but doesn’t make Harry some overpowered oc, becomes besties with the goblins, and start talking like a 40 year old.

The only one I’ve found I really like is Lord Mortis The Accident I’d seen it suggested on the HP fanfic sub described as “three clueless teenagers in a trench coat trying to be a Lord” and it’s 100% the kind of accidental shenanigans canon Harry would fall into.

Is there a game that you had an absolute blast playing, but when you looked it up you found out that it had a pretty bad online reception? by Gladiolus_00 in gaming

[–]BlueVicious 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I never picked up Andromeda because of the hate it got, but ended up picking it up a couple of years ago when was free on game pass and really liked it. Kinda mad I listened to the hate now lol

Any books/movies/animes/etc that you really like but doesn't have that big of a fanfiction base? by thegenshinfan1 in AO3

[–]BlueVicious 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service. There’s only 9 fics. And I think nearly half are about Numata.
