A FIC A DAY - Day 89
Nothing Softer Or More Flexible by colazitron (27k words)
Even is suffering from writer's block. He has to write and film a short film on love. He finds unlikely inspiration in an old essay from one Isak V. It was a pleasure coming back to this fic.

an act of exploration

Summary:
David has a crush on Hans' flatmate, which is fine because he hardly ever sees him so it's nothing to worry about. Then he's suddenly there at their queer youth club's Christmas party with a sign taped to his back that reads "kiss me".
Info: 5k | General | Christmas, pining
Notes: That idea is honestly such a funny one! I really enjoyed reading this through David’s POV, how nervous he actually is around Matteo, even though it probably doesn’t show. A great christmas spirit fic!
Sneak Peak:
“Oh, David! There you are!” Hans calls. “Come over here and help Matteo finish up with the decorations, I've got to go check on the kitchen team.”
David freezes, heart pounding in his chest. “I can do that,” he suggests.
“Nonsense,” Hans says, waving him off. “You're helpless in a kitchen and we all know it, but our butterfly here could definitely use your artistic eye, since he has absolutely no aesthetic vision himself.”
Matteo rolls his eyes at Hans' declaration and the consoling pat he gives his shoulder, but he doesn't protest. There's no way David can get out of this without looking like a jerk, so he doesn't try. And it's not that he doesn't want to spend time with Matteo, it's just that the prospect of it makes him at least as nervous as it gets him excited, if not more.
Still, he makes his way over and lets Hans pile the wall ornaments he was already holding into his arms.
“Perfect, thank you so much. I'll be back in a while, sweetlings!”

We’re doing a Christmas in July feature! Today’s fic is a strangers to lovers oneshot. If you like it, please consider leaving it some love in the form of kudos/comments!
let’s have a team talk - colazitron / @fille-lioncelle (5k words)
Even is out for some non-alcoholic gløgg with his friends when he catches sight of a pretty blond boy. His friends do what all good friends would: play matchmaker.
Notes & Ramblings:
This is a super cute alternate first meeting for our two boys featuring the balloon and boy squads being pushy and some run-ins with a Christmas tree
Everyone is really in character and I love the group dynamics in this fic; everyone in balloon squad (including nonbinary Mikael!) feel so individual, but also their interactions as a group are just totally spot on
I love how comfortable and honest Even and Isak are with each other from the start, they clearly get along very well and it’s entirely fitting for their dynamic
This fic is also very well paced and I’m in awe of how natural and organic the development of Even and Isak’s relationship feels despite the relatively short length of the fic
Overall, a really sweet and heartwarming fic that you can easily wrap yourself in when you need something straightforwardly fluffy!
Favorite lines:
“Do you want to kiss me, Even?” Isak asks, hand still holding Even's.
“Not if you're still tipsy,” Even says, teasing a little, but also not.
Isak smiles at him.
“No, I think it is actually just you,” he says quietly.
Even sees the crash coming before it does, watches as Isak whirls back around and trips over the uneven ground, hands flailing out to keep his balance and taking one of the ornately decorated Christmas trees down with him when he loses out against gravity and falls to his knees with a dull thud. He's sort of in Even's path, or maybe Even's path took a little detour. The scenic route, if you will, what with Isak still on his knees in the snow, pushing himself up from his hands to examine the damage he did to the Christmas tree. It's one of the smaller ones, at least. Barely taller than waist-high, which is really not the best choice of decoration for a crowded area if you ask Even. “Are you okay?” he makes himself ask, kneeling down to pick up some of the (plastic, at least that choice was a smart one) ornaments that Isak knocked off the knocked-over tree. There are a few people watching them, a group of girls whispering behind their mittened hands, but Even notes uncharitably that noone but himself came over to offer Isak help. “My knees or my pride?” Isak asks, voice heavy with sarcasm in a way that startles a laugh out of Even. “I mean, whichever you need more,” Even quips back, eyes going wide when Isak looks up to meet his gaze with an equally wide-eyed stare. “Um. I mean,” Even says, wracking his brain for a way to take the innuendo back out of that sentence and drawing up frantic blank after frantic blank.

Fic Recs: Fluff
Some of my faves (and boy are there a lot):
PART 1
1. California Sold (isthatyoularry) - Notoriously closeted boyband member Harry Styles is famous on a global scale, meanwhile Louis, as his best friend, is back home in Manchester, living the typical life of a 24 year old. When Harry needs Louis with him in LA, a publicity stunt gone wrong changes their friendship forever.
2. These Sweet Thoughts (adelagia) - Featuring Louis as Ariel in a production of The Tempest, Harry as a happily overworked pastry chef, Niall their cheerleader, Zayn their less vocal but equally enthusiastic cheerleader, Kinder Surprises, stiff peaks, and someone getting punched by mistake.
3. We Can Take The Long Way Home (eleadore) - “Fertile,” Louis says, and then laughs because it sounds stupid to say out loud. He hasn’t ever really thought of himself in those terms. Baby-making terms. It’s just one of those things his body can do, like exercise, or go without tea. Doesn’t mean he will.
4. I’ll Crash Until You Notice Me (stylinsoncity) - Louis sets off to Barbados to oversee the massive resort his family owns known as Sandy Hill. For years, he’s been looking for a change in the monotony of his life, seeking adventure and perhaps love too. What he doesn’t expect is the bright eyed boy who spills a milkshake on his shoes.
5. Smoke And Mirrors (colazitron) - Louis and Harry meet on a night out and find they can help each other out by pretending to be a couple. It just might get Louis’ mum off his back and Harry’s maybe-ex to want him back. Simple plan, right? Wrong.
6. My Kingdom For A Kiss (Tonight You’re On My Mind) (ab_hinc) - Zayn and Louis make a friendly wager and it goes too far, Harry’s a baker with a heart of gold and really great hair, Liam is an overworked PA who just wants to enjoy his holiday and Niall is completely at ease, as always. An accidentally married AU mixed with a splash of modern royalty.

I can't tell you enough about cinnamon
Author: colazitron
Summary:
Matteo, David, and some mistletoe. What could this possibly lead to?
Info: 2k | General | Christmas feels, friends to lovers
Notes: First christmas rec this year! Such a cute getting together fic! I especially love the characterizations, both of them being careful and vulnerable but in the moments that count are bold and brave.
Sneak Peak:
But to say that Matteo’s heart isn’t pounding a little in his chest, that he’s not waiting for David’s judgement of all this chaos, of his friends, his found family with slightly bated breath would be a lie.
And it’s dumb, Matteo knows that. David is a friend, and he’s probably not going to run away just because they’re all a little overly affectionate. He’s not even Matteo’s friend, first and foremost - or at least it wasn’t Matteo who brought him into the group. It was Sara, ironically enough, who met David through a student film project he’d been directing and she’d been cast in.
It’s just that Matteo and David really hit it off, in a way Matteo hasn’t hit it off with anyone since… well, maybe ever. Or maybe Jonas, but Matteo doesn’t think it really counts as the same thing when you’re both six years old.
It definitely counts with David, who’s clever and funny and sweet and just dorky enough that the fact that he’s also ridiculously handsome isn’t too intimidating. Or maybe it’s just that Matteo forgets all about how very far out of his league David is when they’re together because everything with him feels… easy. Even when Matteo feels like his insides are melting in a hot panic because he’s made a fool of himself one way or another, David never laughs at him. Never cruelly.

This week is the first week of our Pride Month feature! Today’s fic discusses the possibility of Isak being asexual. If you like it, please consider leaving it some love in the form of kudos/comments!
When You Say Sexy, I Say - colazitron / @fille-lioncelle (4.5k words)
There's something that has been weighing on Isak's mind for a while, and a cabin trip he and Even go on ends up being the place to adress it.
Notes and ramblings:
In this fic, Isak and Even discuss sex and Isak’s relationship with it during a cabin retreat
Personally I think this fic handles the topic of asexuality extremely well and realistically, depicting the challenges of being in a relationship where both parties have different relationships to sex in a way that to me feels very true to life
This is a difficult conversation to have, but an important one, and I love that you can feel how much love and trust there is between the boys - their ability to communicate well is so mature and heartwarming to witness
In a fic that’s entirely about a conversation between the two characters, characterization is crucial, and I definitely think it’s nailed for both of them here, particularly in Isak’s inability to articulate certain things he feels very strongly and Even’s anxiety over possibly hurting Isak and forcing him into things against his will
Overall, a really well executed discussion of a topic that is both important and often overlooked - definitely check it out if you don’t mind second person!
Favorite lines:
“I like you more than I like sex,” he says. He looks like he believes it, and you try to believe him too. “I like you more than I don't like sex,” you say.

This week, we’re reccing fics with Even’s POV set in canon. Today’s fic is a short oneshot. If you like it, please consider leaving it some love in the form of kudos/comments!
The one where Isak is cold and Even has ways to warm him up - colazitron / @fille-lioncelle (2.5k words)
Isak and Even snuggle under the duvet to warm up. Even also has a thing for Isak’s legs.
Notes and ramblings:
This is a sexy and sweet pwp from Even’s pov with a great mix of love, lust, and happy banter.
I love the references to Isak and Sana’s friendship in the beginning, to Even’s friendship with Elias, and Mama Bakkoush. These casual nods to canon frame their relationship within a warm, happily domestic backdrop.
It’s really refreshing to read a non-penetrative sex scene in a pwp, and the sex perfectly fits with the overall feeling of the fic, which is that of being cozy, warm, and lazy, snuggled under a duvet.
The comfortable, relaxed intimacy between Even and Isak feels really in character for them, like a natural progression from the “Hjernen er alene” clip.
Note: This fic is E-rated.
Favorite lines:
“That why you missed me?” Isak teases in a low voice that makes Even laugh softly.
“Yeah,” he says, shamelessly, because Isak knows it’s both the truth and a lie. It’s never what Even misses most about Isak, but it’s always something he misses too. Their relationship has always been physical, and Even sees no point in pretending they don’t both enjoy being physically intimate with each other. He’s not a believer in the idea that it somehow cheapens the deep emotional connection they have in any way.
Plus, sex with Isak just feels fucking fantastic.
