Hank’s Boots ‘n Bombs Rec List
Night Before Christmas by Anonymous [NSFW] The quintessential Boots n Bombs fic. Has everything: crying, reunions, hurt pride and bruised hearts, fantastically tender sex. Prose that will stick with you for years to come. Basically this fic made me start shipping them in the first place, and I reread it every now and again and remember why.
Slainte Mhath, Slainte Mhor by tanyart Not explicitly romantic but you should read it anyway. Heavy angst following the WAR! as Soldier tries to recover, with some help from his team. Every time I read it I forget how it goes and my heart breaks all over again.
Fable’s End by someonehasto Established relationship during the end of the robot wars. A delicious foray into death, grief, and learning what they would do for one another. Even beyond that, an absolutely wonderful Demo-centric.
Best Worst Friends and Auld Lang Syne by Innwich This follows Demo and Soldier post-canon where they fulfill their destinies of being grumpy old men. (And resolving their feud, of course)
Drabbles From Vegas by Lightspeed [NSFW] This one is exactly as the title implies, where Demo and Soldier go to Vegas and have shenanigans that only they can get up to. Excellent for some laughs.
Demo and Soldier: Fifty Themes by Ofdensocks A loose collection of one-sentence fics, though they have a story buried within them.
some weaknesses by strangebirds Short and sweet Soldier-centric, I feel it captures a slice of the BnB relationship I always want to see, mainly the differences the way the two process emotions–and the WAR! in general.
Here are some more sorted by Fluff, Angst, and Smut:
