ReylosMyMuse

HIIII okay I just checked out my bookmarks!!

Give in To Me by LoveofEscapism: this is SO GOOD they are coworkers and competitors and they hate each other but really they lust after each other aaaaaargh. Also: BEN SHARPIE!

like my heart longs for an ocean by hi_raeth: ABO/co-workers who hate each other but they are also SO attracted. This story is so masterfully written, I fell in love.

America’s Asshole by monsterleadmehome: Ben’s an asshole actor and Rey is his manager. Spoiler: then I become his manager 😎

Kodachromance by voicedimplosives: okay so in this one they have a one night stand and then they are kind of rivals? It probably doesn’t super fit your rec but I loved it and found it in my bookmarks and wanted to rec it!

Diet Coke and Mentos by gopherbroke: this one is exactly what you’re looking for and THEY’RE BOTH ALPHAS!!

Offside by sciosophia: one of my faves fic in the fandom. They kind of hate each other but then they start talking and…

My Side, Your Side by Catchclaw: they are grad students and hate each other I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!!

i’m always in this twilight (in the shadow of your heart) by diasterisms: another one of my favorite fics, again it fits exactly what you want and it’s canonverse!

Forms by Trebia: my fave fic ever!! They literally go from hating each other to being in love it’s SO GOOD.

The deadly thing in my job is to attach too much meaning to everything. You have to have a sense of humor about yourself…I’m definitely trying to figure this all out as I go along, how to craft a career. As things get bigger, I have days of depression, sitting in the house and wondering ‘What are you doing? Is it even relevant?’

The Rules: This is a (by no means fully inclusive) rec list of some of my favorite reylo fanfics published or updated in 2018. Please note that the list is ordered by last update date. 

Head over feet by @ever-so-reylo : “Is it working, for you?” Maybe it comes out a little needy, but Rey tells herself that it’s only because of how low she has to pitch her voice to talk to him. “Or do you maybe want to fake-break up?” Ben doesn’t answer for a second. Then, just as Doctor Phasma takes the mic to thank the speaker and ask the audience if anyone has questions, Rey hears him say, “No. No, I don’t want to fake-break up.”

Embers by @sciosophia: “Me and Ben were…a long time ago. It’s nothing. Ben’s nothing. He’s just a guy.” Just a guy. Poe’s childhood friend; a lobbyist; someone who could run marathons in less than four hours. These were the labels she’d reduced Ben down to; boxes to compartmentalise him in, entirely separate from their relationship. ]

Hypothermia by Lucidlucy: “You hardly find me repulsive, little desert rat,” he said with honey on his tongue, a term that used to once make her blood boil but that she now acknowledged as a warped version of an endearment from Kylo Ren. “Or need I remind you of Takodana?”

Ceremony by LuxLush: An uncharted planet in the Unknown Regions. An ancient ritual stumbled upon by two outsiders. A Sith Temple. Blood, sex, passion, power. A binding even stronger than a Force Bond. A binding that, if broken, leads to catastrophic consequences.

User Not Found by violethoure666: It’s not Rey’s fault that her computer literally never works, but tell that to the grumpy IT guy who never leaves the basement. This was my excuse to write witty online banter and desk sex.

There Will Always Be Hope by Killing_Me_Softly: He pocketed the note and peered into the woven basket set on the floor in front of him. He tried to mask his surprise. It was a child. Or more accurately, a very young infant. Only a tiny sleeping face and a few wisps of dark hair were visible underneath the layers of swaddling.

The Rebel Side of Heaven by @jeenonamit​: “I could teach you,” Rey says, very matter-of-fact. “What it’s all about, I mean. What to do.”Ben stares at her blankly for a long moment, her meaning clearly not registering.When he finally does get what she’s saying, his reaction is immediate and explosive.“What?” he sputters, eyes wide. (In which Ben Solo is an awkward virgin, Rey is a friend who offers to teach him about sex, and nothing goes according to plan.) 

sharp-dressed man by @audreyii-fic: Kylo’s stuff keeps getting shipped to Rey’s apartment, and the resultant miscommunications threaten to destroy their lives – or, you know, at least their summer.Also Kylo wears a suit and Rey is thirsty.Utterly pointless smut garbage. 

Convergence by dietplainlite: Rey and Ben are on a mission to visit an ancient temple of the Force during an important astronomical event. But first, there’s a tiny hotel room, and a tiny bed.

Once, Twice (Always) by dietplainlite: Jedi dropout Ben Solo gets roped into a smuggling mission for the Resistance. He’s surprised at how easy it is to pull off, but his quarry may be even more valuable to bounty hunter and fellow dropout Rey.

Left Handed Kisses by @ever-so-reylo:  “You’re everything,” she thinks he tells her the moment before her brain snaps black from exhaustion. Or maybe she’s just imagining it. A modern AU in which Rey is an Assistant District Attorney working for Leia and Ben is an evil (?) criminal defense lawyer.
