i’ve decided to establish this institution, in which i will recommend one fic (drabble(s), one shot, fic, etc.) each friday to starlight some of my favourite stories and/or pieces of writing just to support fellow writers and talk about fics i read that, in my opinion, are not talked about nearly enough. it will continue indefinitely and include my entire fanfic anthology which spans through all members past and present of one direction. i’ll include the story, author, a short synopsis, and the reason why i like it.
this week’s gem isssss...
sangria on your lips by @marisa-writes
you can read it here on tumblr
synopsis (as provided by the author): A Los Angeles heat wave. A little homemade sangria. A local R&B radio station. Teyana, and Niall, and some good old-fashioned chemistry.
it also has SIX (6) accompanying drabbles which you can find here
OH BOY LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT THIS GEM RIGHT HERE! it was the year of our lord 2012 and the niall fire flaming in my heart was ablaze like i was in love with the dude and his cute little crooked teeth and then his braces and just everything about him then harry came around mud stomped it out and took his place but this gem right here? it took me BACK like i don’t think i’ve ever wanted niall more than i when i read this. it is so impeccably written (much like everything else she writes) and it’s just everything. and the leading lady is a woman! of! colour! !!!!!!!!! i can not tell you how important that is like we are a much overlooked part of this fandom especially when it comes to fic and to have this be so well written and represented i love it. hats off to Marisa. she knows how much i love her and i need everyone who sees this to go and read it and show it the love and support that it deserves.
