So I finally started reading Sansukh and omg it is just as good as everyone says! I was gonna wait until it was done but there’s only 5 chapters left and the last one posted wasn’t a cliffhanger so I can be patient (like Thorin and Bilbo) for the rest!
And there’s so much art and related fic and music to make you cry and a podfic I want to audition for once they open submissions again.
I’m not huge into the Tolkien fandom (My preferences are stories that ignore everyone fucking DYING at the end of the Hobbit because NO NO NO JRRT YOU BASTARD NOPE FINGERS IN MY EARS LA LA LA LAAA and do good fix-it work, or genderbent Hobbit stories) but this one…yeah, this one sucked me in and I read it in 3 days and it still has FIVE CHAPTERS TO GO. *waits at fic window with huge misty sad Hobbity eyes for the last chapters*
Go five it a try. It’s interesting, even if JRRT stuff isn’t normally your bag.
oh my GOSH i just discovered that you are reading it and I am fangirling so hard rn
*fans face* oh my gosh oh my gosh HI and also THANK YOU!
Commission for @sorrel-ly (who I can’t tag for some reason). It’s Dwalin and his wife Orla, as she appears in “Sansûkh” by @determamfidd. If you haven’t heard of this fic yet, then go read it!
OH MY EFFING GOD WOW!!!
look at them! Holy shit I love you both, I love the way you draw Orla, Sparkle! AND YAAAAH THEY ARE BOTH SO KICKASS AND SO TERRIFYING – and so secretly made of marshmallow lmao
The Service by rutobuka (E, WIP, fem!Bagginshield, sex work, honestly read the tags, this fic is so goddamn hot, hottest thing I’ve ever read, I love it)
The Sons of Durin by KivrinEngle (T, modern au, sorta crime family but idk that doesn’t 100% descibe it, doesn’t have a lot of romance but the action is good)
A Literal Roll in the Hay by GayForWerewolves (E, one-shot, trans male Bilbo, Dwarves have sensible gender concepts i.e. everyone is what they say they are so being trans is no problemo)
Hearts Will As Hearts Must by determamfidd (G, one-shot, also Kiliel and Gigolas, Gigolas is kinda the main ship here but Bagginshield has a big role, this is just such a sweet and good lil fic) (lil fic my ass it’s 10k)
and then a fic I always rec bc it just is so damn good:
Sansûkh by determamfidd (T, WIP, long as balls but honestly it’s the best fic ever, it’s the biggest blessing ever to grace this fandom, and I have so many feels about it and I want everyone to read it because it is so so so so good)
