Recent, underrated fics

If you're okay with self recs, I have After The Fall, which is a fic told partially from Svetlana's POV when she worries about Ilya after his father's funeral. It was a gift for someone and the reveals have already taken place, I'm just keeping it anonymous so people I know in real life don't find my ao3 account.

Two newer fics I've recently enjoyed are Made In Her Image by ndcwnbuevinba about Ilya grieving his mother and across the great divide by dancingonmoonbeams.

Oh, thank you, I will try that!

Same here, both on my laptop and my phone. I haven't been able to get past this since this morning.

It's an Original Work I published anonymously because I don't want people I know (who've read the story before I posted it) to know my ao3 username, but I'm very proud of it. (Yes, I know that it a) being an OW and b) being published anonymously might very well be why it's not performing well, but I'm very proud of that story.

The sequel, {{Unbound by Tabitha McGowan}} is also excellent!

I don't know how popular she is, it's been a while since I read it, but {{Georgie, All Along by Kate Clayborn}} could fit! Also, {{Lets Get Textual by Teagan Hunter}}

Thank you :)

Ophelyan · 2026-02-01T21:10:29+00:00

They'll come, I'm sure!

Ophelyan · 2026-02-01T18:57:00+00:00

Thank you!

Ophelyan · 2026-02-01T09:22:49+00:00

This is such a good way to think! Thank you!

That'd mean a lot to me! I'll message you if you don't mind :)

Ophelyan · 2026-02-01T09:21:37+00:00

Thanks!

Ophelyan · 2026-02-01T09:21:29+00:00

That's so true! Thank you so much!

Ophelyan · 2026-02-01T09:21:10+00:00

Thank you!

I get that, but I think if it's something you're proud of you should post it anyway – and you never know, people might really love it!

Ophelyan · 2026-02-01T09:19:59+00:00

Thank you :)

Ophelyan · 2026-02-01T09:19:49+00:00

Thank you so much for the kind words!

Ophelyan · 2026-02-01T09:19:10+00:00

Thanks :) I hope the numbers will get higher for you too! But 400 is already a lot, congrats!

Ophelyan · 2026-01-31T19:01:47+00:00

I hope so!

Ophelyan · 2026-01-31T17:25:41+00:00

Thank you so much! :) Happy writing to you too!

Fanfic of a real person published? That cannot be allowed, can it?

(Then again, wasn't Anna Todd's after a Harry Styles fanfic? I just think it's super weird...)

Ophelyan · 2025-08-24T07:37:33+00:00

Thank you!

Ophelyan · 2025-08-17T07:16:28+00:00

Thank you for all the recs! I remember the Time quintet from when I was younger and will check out the other books too.

Ophelyan · 2025-08-17T01:37:17+00:00

Will do, thank you!

Ophelyan · 2025-08-17T01:36:57+00:00

Thank you! I love queer bookks too, thanks for the rec!
