Hello anon! Thank you, and thank you for trusting my taste too haha.

Hmm let’s see... this is hard because our fandom has many very solid writers in it. But it’s a blessing, really, I’m not complaining. I need to read more fics though because I know for a fact that I’m missing out on some solid bangers out there 😤

Now, do bear with me because this is my first time using hyperlinks in a retrospring answer, hopefully everything worked out ok :’D

• Starlight On The Water by ceasefire

Another EiEd banger from Momo. I picked this one in particular because when I read it, I just had to pause sometimes, to take it all in and be wowed by how she painted the visuals and set the mood. And that word choice... it made me think that I still have a long way to go as a writer haha.

• Safe with you by kingtopyakumo

This is a great example of what I meant when I mentioned what I like about fanfiction. We’re talking a non-canon pairing (YakuQuin), switching and how another character could’ve lived through a canon event PLUS... it’s really hot and it’s all in character (in my opinion). Loved it.

• The "something borrowed" series by museaway

It’s Daster. BUT WAIT, WAIT HEAR ME OUT!! It’s not just a one-shot, it’s multiple chapters about their relationship AND so many extras and additions, all penned by someone who writes them so well. Each new "something" makes me so happy. And I love how Muse handles their dialogue... even if you’re not sure, check it out! You might be pleasantly surprised~

-Just a taste... by Yuutfa

This is a modern AU YakuEi fic! The setting is fleshed out so well, you can really see how much care and love went into it. I loved watching their relationship progress in this specific setting and also how Rin was included and handled.

Worth To Venture by isamijoo

Soooo... this one is a one-shot Dante/Eiden/Edmond threesome. I like the idea of Eiden basically coaching his clan members through threesomes and some of the Dante lines had me shouting lol. It’s good sexy food is all I’ll say, check it out if that sounds fun to you~

Finally, I still think fondly of Flowers on you and I wanted to recommend it to you anon but... I think it’s gone from AO3, I’m afraid. But if you’ve read it, you know what I mean :’)

As I said above, I would like to read more fics this year (I already have a long "Marked for later" list I need to check more often) so if you or anyone reading this has any recs for me, feel free to shoot them my way <3
