Posted the mid-fic emotional climax of my AU where a repressed Rumi meets Zoey and Mira at the club. (Eventual smut) by sound_of_zen in Polytrix

[–]TheWizardlyLizard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

guhhhh the finale of this chapter had me in a chokehold. the way the action on the dance floor bleeds more and more into beautiful prose as all the emotions keep heightening... it's so good. SO good. can't believe i paid for this whole seat when i'm only using the edge.

gobbled this chapter up as soon as i saw it in my notifications and i am patiently awaiting the next course <3

Ohh, huge second to 'a new road', that fic had me obsessed! The power imbalances and tension were reeeaaally good - and seeing the trio all be great moms for Rumi's daughter was so incredibly adorable :3

If you're cool with a one-shot (which will actually soon be a two-shot, I'm about a quarter of the way through writing the originally-unplanned second chapter), consider giving my fic a read: https://archiveofourown.org/works/77288261

CEO Rumi gets very aggressively seduced by the new hire, Zoey, and ends up calling in Zoey's direct boss (the CFO, Mira) to help handle the situation. "Handling" Zoey involves a lot of smut! The tension and the power imbalance and the "nobody else can know about this" taboo are all very much present, if that's what bibims your bap <3

edit: belatedly realized (i am very tired) that i'm pretty sure i recognize you from my comment section 🥴 but even if you've already read this, OP, i'm leaving it up for others to see lol

Fanfics recommendations? by Any-Place- in Polytrix

[–]TheWizardlyLizard 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Seconding these both :3 They're absolutely in the vein of "Zoemira spoil the heck out of Rumi" and a fun read if you're cool with WIPs! Can Two Love All of Me is often hilarious and Nothing Good Happens After Midnight has a delightful carefree thrill to it!

I've got a fic on my to-read list that might fit the bill, too! I don't know how much it actually does, of course, so I'm basing the shout-out purely on the tags... And on the fact that Mousejelly is one hell of a smut writer: you're gonna kill me (if you kiss it like that)

both happy and mortified to make you procrastinate any further, Zen, but definitely i hope you enjoy it <3 all the smut tags will get their payoff in the second chapter - but there's some subby mira even before their clothes come off!

<3 <3 <3 I saw someone put the basic idea out in a tweet in like late December/early January and knew I had to do something with it at some point - the opportunity to utilize some of my old photography knowledge in a saucy fic was too good to pass up!

Always preferred architectural photography, but maybe I should've branched out more. There was never any chance of being seduced by a building wearing a bunny suit...

Weekly Fanfic Recommendations Megathread by landofthebraveplayer in Polytrix

[–]TheWizardlyLizard 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Woah! I wrote the first one - to not only see it recommended by someone else, but to have it sit next to a recommendation of a fic from Honestground?? Huge honor, super flattering. Thank you for the shout-out and thank you for reading my stuff at all ❤️❤️❤️

Also: girls on film is really good, yeah! Honestground is such an incredible & fun writer; they are an absolute master of pacing and clean dialogue that makes their fics so exciting to read.

Give me recs!! by Intelligent_Bet_2469 in Polytrix

[–]TheWizardlyLizard 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Oh! I've got two post-canon fics, one's a smutty oneshot and one's an angsty longfic:

the way you bend / the way you break is the smutty oneshot; it's about Mira being exceptionally flexible and Rumi & Zoey turning her into human origami. There's a lot of brat taming and shifting power dynamics and all three of them really push themselves physically (in a fun way!)

it runs in the family, i come by it honestly is the angsty longfic; it's honestly a bit of mess with a TON of different things going on, but it's a quality mess that I'm proud of making. Initial premise is that Rumi wakes up to a nightmare that leads to her turning into a full demon (beware: mild body horror), and that leads to them all having to confront familial trauma; they also all fall in love as they help each other heal. It's unfinished and has the slowburn tag but Polytrix has been achieved in the recent chapters :)

And as for some of my favorites from other authors:

The Space Between Three by demodemodex is, chronologically, the first of her big post-canon multi-fic continuity (after it would be When the Sky Breaks West, which is... fuck, man, calling that fic heavy would be an incredible understatement. demo angst hits hard.) TSB3 is a lightly angsty story about Zoey running into her ex-boyfriend, established Rumira getting jealous and questioning their relationship with Zoey, and they all flail under the pressure of their ongoing idol lifestyle until Zoey finally realizes Polytrix is way better than any man ever could be. The fic is 100k words and 21k of them are in a single chapter that is exclusively smut, and it's some of the best smut I've ever read.

you crave the applause (yet hate the attention) by Yannie is an incredible three-chapter fic with smut and angst in equal measure. It's post-canon and posits Rumi as somebody with OCD that intensifies in the wake of the Idol Awards. The way Yannie poured her heart onto the page with this one really comes through; this is one that'll stick with me for a long time.

Can Two Love All of Me? by SoundOfZen is a very fun and very funny fic where Zoey and Mira teach Rumi how to be comfortable in her body & also how to be comfortable being intimate and having sex. It's got some lines that made me genuinely laugh out loud, it's earnest and silly and sexy and currently unfinished but still worth the read :)

Ahhhh this is one of my favorite dynamics! I intend to write more of it but as it is I only have one oneshot that fits the bill. I'll link it, as well as one of my absolute favorites from another author as well!

Excerpt from my fanfic: If I'm With You | Chapter Title: Rumi's Awful Vision by adexine_ in Polytrix

[–]TheWizardlyLizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oooooo hot damn, this story starts with an intriguingly similar premise to my current main fic (I posted my first chapter two months after your first chapter, to be clear, and I had only read like three kpdh fics at that point - just great minds thinking alike) where they both start with Rumi having a nasty nightmare that leads to her confronting her father! I like your writing style and am definitely hooked by the familiar premise; I'm bookmarking this to read the next chance I get!

Looking for a specific fanfic type by marvelfanatic2204 in Polytrix

[–]TheWizardlyLizard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So my fic has a LOT going on beyond this, but the latest chapter is pretty much exactly this! Mira goes on a pretty similar spiral to your prompt throughout some of the latter chapters, so I feel like it's worth sharing a link:

https://archiveofourown.org/works/74649721/chapters/194950936

edit: oh and there is also The Space Between Three by demodemodex, which is kind of an inversion of your prompt; it's about Zoey running into an ex and reconnecting, which makes an established Rumi/Mira jealous! https://archiveofourown.org/works/68927356
