#sc fics

So I certainly haven’t written anything aside from allusions within some fics but you can just dig around for that.

As for tender/sexy recs:

peaceful quiet... by @language-of-love (this one is the epitome of tender/sexy)

Feel it Like a Flood and Tuesday Morning by @fraudulentzodiac (gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous)

He Sees You by Distractivate (not sure if your implications were for tender/sexy-specific moments, but this is worth the read for the scene toward the end)

my heart was broke, my head was sore (specifically chapter 3, which is gorgeous) and Room Three by @blueink3 from the Sex Motel series.

Thanks to @vivianblakesunrisebay and @missgeevious​  for tagging me.

Post the first line of the last 20 things you’ve written. The lesson here is.....I don’t have great opening lines 😂

Dan stares at the screen, the single line patiently blinking, waiting for Dan to imbue it with a sense of purpose.  (Tiny Spaces)

Dan finally forces himself to sit down on the sofa—to stop pacing. (Starring Role)

Dan has never been in New York for a winter storm before—the city gets quieter than he ever thought possible, blanketed in a sparkling silence. (Cold Open)

David’s screen lights up with the name he’s been expecting for the last five minutes. (Ex Post Facto)

Stevie shows up for Powerpoint Night with a bottle of Arbor Mist and a glint in her eye. (#PowerpointNight #FYP)

It started like most things in Dan’s life—with a joke. (Making Room)

“Honey, you got a package,” David calls out, setting it on the small bench by the door. (Big Block of Cheese Day)

“Oh um, I hope you don't mind if my boyfriend joins us?” Heather asks, and David regrets every life choice that has led to this moment. (How Sweet It Is)

“Patrick?” David calls out when he gets home. (Within Reach)

David gives himself a final once over, admiring his costume. (The Original Hot Chili Sauce)

“David, can you come help me?” Patrick calls out from the backroom.  (Say My Name (Ch. 6))

Noah snuggles in closer to Dan’s side, his hair smells like citrusy pine and his stubble is just present enough for Dan to feel when Noah nuzzles against his chest. (Look How Far We’ve Come)

Dan can tell by the light streaming in that it’s early. (Love in the Morning)

“That’s a new sign.” Dan thought he was prepared for this trip down memory lane, but the closer they get to Goodwood, the further he is from okay. (Memory Lane)

“So,” Patrick sets down his paintbrush and murmurs into David’s ear. “Wanna fool around?” (Ours)

Dan hugs his dad one more time, he can’t believe they fucking did this, that so many people believed in him when he didn’t believe in himself yet. (Victory Lap)

David collapses on the tiny bed, fitting around Patrick, resting his head on his chest. (Five Golden Rings)

“Where are we going again?” Patrick scoots over across the back seat of the cab and fits himself into David’s side. (Slice of Life)

The doorbell rings, and Dan has a sudden strong wish that it’s Noah—here first, before everyone else. (Happiness is Next to You)

I was tagged by @yourbuttervoicedbeau

I tag @popfly @thegrayness @doublel27​ and literally everyone who created this year!! (im so bad a tumblr so please pretend i tagged you directly)

1. Putting Down Roots — Patrick plants a garden, wears jorts and pouts a lot. David loves him. This is one of the longest things I’ve ever written and 

2. Slice of Life — David and Patrick visit New York and eat a lot pizza. I was really proud of how much of New York I packed into this fic, and it made me want a lot of pizza. I have since had Lucali, and can confirm, the best.

3. How Sweet It Is — A new vendor melts David Rose's heart. This was my very first AU and it was so so fun to take canon and weave into this prompt for Frozen Over 

4. Look How Far We’ve Come — For the prompt "Dan takes off for a month to be a Noah Reid “groupie” Writing tiny glimpses into what this would look like without turning it into a 10k fic was a good challenge.

5. You’re So Soft — Patrick and David have some drinks with Patrick's high school friends. This fic is short but I am weirdly attached to it.

“This is Patrick—he’ll be joining us! He’s a horologist.”

David nods and sticks out his hand. “David. I’m the ceramic conservation and restoration expert.”
