Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to go off about my favs ♥ (This will be a long post!) Also happy to hear you have enjoyed my stuff!!! 

For bonrin, you’ll hit a goldmine by reading @tonguetiedraven’s work. So much great, lengthy (♥) stuff up on ao3! If you enjoyed the Lettersverse aspect of running alongside canon, her Love Sonnet series might be up your alley! Though lots of angsts ahead! Alternatively, the Ryuuji’s Guide to Demonic Boyfriends is cute and fluffy and bound to bring a smile to your face. (There’s plenty of art too right here!)

Some other top favs of mine are:

the_original_n_chan’s The Priest’s Son and the Demon

@fweeble’s I Wanna Be Your Knight (which I am delighted to tell you DOES have a part 3 here on tumblr, but it is more of a ShimaBon perspective (unrequited). It is absolutely endgame BonRin through the series, and so, so good both in writing and characterization. 

You also can’t go wrong checking out @puddingcatbeans‘s works. Gorgeous pieces. You can find them on ao3 here and this is her bonrin tag on tumblr which I think may contain some extra drabbles not posted elsewhere. 

grillantho also has some lovely stuff! and please check out lilynete too, especially  chocolate-coated kisses! (bonrin, yukishima AND izushie)

For yukishima, boy, I am thirsty for content!!!! I live for the day that they thrive as much as bonrin does lmao. 

I will start off with  Alea Iacta Est which absolutely owned my heart, tysm again raven for writing this amazing fic!!

To Know is to Know Nothing At All by @dnainers is so so good, especially if you’re in that Illuminati arc mood. Also this character study of Renzou was also fantastic!

When The Stars Align by dabistears, similarly, takes place in the Illuminati arc and is lovely!

and for the love of god, Jinx Knockout by orsumfenix is INCREDIBLE. Love everything about it and I am looking forward to seeing more of it someday!!! Please check out the rest of her works too because they’re delightful and I love the way she writes Renzou. I think Smoke Point is one of my all time favs.

A hazy shade of winter by @grillantho has my heart, the gorgeous fake dating au that we are clearly lacking more content for!!

look at me by SidewaysClarinet is a fantastic yandere take that I was delighted to see. (It’s also well worth checking out their other works!! Definitely more yukishima in there like surely a way to fall for someone and just one more try, and some other lovely stuff!)

and please anything by KatInnRotato my fav yukishima author. I’ll start you off with their  Blue Skies Make Bad Lies

For Mephishiro, we’re in rough waters here, even less works posted than yukishima!! To make up for it though, SuperiorDimwit has blessed us with The End of the Beginning which is over 500k words and still going strong. 

Nepenthes by Athgalla is also a MUST read. I hear there’s more Mephishiro content to come in the future, right @athgalla-arts??? ♥

Now, I do have some additional recs to mention. They are not ship-centric but, I super recommend checking them out. 

Everything by revoleotion is fantastic too, especially if you’re a big Yukio fan. Amazing characterization. Currently, I am obsessed with lemon boy @revoleotion pls never stop writing ❤️

Similarly, @bluewindfall has some amazing Yukio and Rin centric works that absolutely blow me away. Please check out  I follow your smoldering footsteps in search of a place to rest and Fugacious but also everything else!

If you’re a Shima fan, you absolutely have to read  Oh, my worst emotions. and  Ad terram nullium. and after you fall in love with those, please check out the rest of carefulfleshgnawer’s works. Incredible Toudou and Lucifer character studies, though mind the tags as they can get a bit dark! I’ll be happy to say that whenever I get stuck in any sort of characterization writer block, I go running here to get back in line. And then there’s the art....! @thefoulbeast is a gift that just keeps on giving ♥

Last but certainly not least, if you’ve read my works, then most likely you’ve also read @shiroufujimoto‘s since we write a lot of our fics together, but if you haven’t yet, check out his solo works!  The Turing Test is an amazing yukishima au where Yukio is actually an AI,  Sensei's Lips Are Cherry Flavored is cute, flirty and fun, bound to leave you grinning widely, and more to come...! There’s more wonderful stuff hidden in his writing tag as well ♥
