School started last week, which has made me pretty useless. It's the first time I've attempted anything academic in close to fifteen years, so I've been to exhausted to do much but stare at shiny things. Thusly, recs:

The Hobbit:

Clue:

Sirens by sairobee [Mrs. White, Miss Scarlet, Yvette]

Ficses:

Moments Between Waking by keelywolfe [The Hobbit; Bilbo/Thorin, adult]

This is part three of a series; if you haven't read the other two, they are pretty flawless. This one is also fantastic, and bonus points for a spot-on Balin cameo.

break me like a promise by honey_wheeler [Game of Thrones; Jon/Sansa, adult]

Most Jon/Sansa fics hinge on a Targaryen reveal, where they get married after Jon's true parentage is discovered and build a relationship while working through the weirdness from being raised as siblings. This takes it in a different direction; Jon and Sansa have been married a few years when they find out Jon is Ned Stark's bastard after all, and they have to decide how to move forward.

Transition by musesfool [Teen Wolf; Sheriff Stilinski/Melissa McCall]

THIS IS THE SHERIFF/MELISSA FIC I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR MY WHOLE LIFE.

Sleep Well by lanimalu [The Hobbit; Balin, Fili, Kili, SPOILERS]

got_exchange is having a Comment Fic Meme.

Feelings-wise, that first piece of Hobbit art is pretty rude, to the point that when I first saw it I screamed NOPE NOPE NOPE and tried to cover my monitor with my hands, despite how beautiful it is. I said on Tumblr last night that I don't think I'll live to see the third movie, because the fandom is going to kill me before time with a cleverly-deployed gifset about the heart and loyalty of Durin's sons, or whatever. I feel like that fanart has justified my predicitions, just bury me in black.

( snipped for spoilery stuff )

I bring recs, in the usual array of fandoms.

Ficses:

Where The Heart Has Been by youremyqueen [Game of Thrones; Jon/Stannis, adult]

Many ASOIAF fans -- myself included -- think Jon will survive the mutiny at the Wall, simply because the plot isn't finished with him yet. This fic basically presumes the opposite; Jon does survive, but the plot doesn't really care. He doesn't get the Wall back, or fly into the sun and become Azor Ahai, or bump into Dany and her dragons. He's just living, only he doesn't really know how to do that without some sort of duty driving him. Stannis is absolutely glorious in this; he has no time for Jon's shit, because his life has been a huge ball of suck since before Jon was born.

Tea and Anarchy by irisbleufic and eldanis [Good Omens; Aziraphale/Crowley, adult]

In which Aziraphale and Crowley retire to Jasmine Cottage and open a tea-house, and everything about it is perfect. The tea descriptions alone are worth the price of admission, never mind that every single word of this is fantastic.

Icebound by pherede [The Hobbit; Fíli/Kíli, adult]

So, one day I was browsing the Fíli/Kíli tag at AO3 thinking 'I hope there's hypothermia fic where the warming process results in frottage that's half desperate and half guilty,' and THEN THIS HAPPENED. It's everything I've ever wanted -- belivable hypothermia, smoking hot porn, beautiful language, and tons of emotion packed into a small space, and the underlying idea that Fíli followed Kíli into that crevasse in the first place because he intended to die with him, as it should be.

Artses:

Thranduil Grieves by candragloomblade [The Hobbit; Thranduil (Spoliers)]

Untitled by candragloomblade [The Hobbit; Thorin/Thranduil, NSFW]

King Under The Mountain by kaetiegaard [The Hobbit; Thorin]

Tear by em-mika [The Hobbit; Thorin, Fíli, Kíli]

And him, Bofur by sephiramy [The Hobbit; Bofur]

Untitled by mcbaah [The Hobbit; Bofur]

Treebeard by suzanne-helmigh [Lord of the Rings; Treebeard]

Melkor calls Mairon to the dark side by phobs-heh [The Silmarillion; Melkor/Sauron]

Untitled by kreugan [Teen Wolf; Jackson]

Untitled by kala-fiorek [Teen Wolf; Derek/Stiles]

Benjen by tamiart [Game of Thrones; Benjen]

The Making of the Marauder's Map by viria13 [Harry Potter; MWPP]

Friends by milgoncalez [Harry Potter; MWPP]

Untitled by minhaamigaoculta [Harry Potter; Regulus]

Sirius and Regulus by nisiedrawsstuff [Harry Potter; Regulus, Sirius]

When we could be diving for pearls by irisparry [Jon/Stannis, PG13]

Okay, so. This is basically the hardboiled, 1930's Stannis-is-a-film-noir-private-detective AU I have wanted my entire life. Davos is his right hand! Melisandre is the psychic consultant he never listens to! Jon runs a low-market bar he inherited from the Old Bear. Glorious AU scenario is glorious, and also absolutely flawless in execution.

Teen Wolf fic:

What Desperate Times Call For by taelynhawker [Derek/Stiles, NC17]

This is wonderful in ways I can't even explain.

I Forgot All The Rules Today by entangled_now [Derek/Stiles, NC17]

This. UGH THIS. It's a perfect mixture of angsty and filthy-hot.

Teen Wolf art:

Little red has pointy teeth by daunt [Derek/Stiles]

I usually leave the art recs to themostepotente, but this is so amazing I had to pass it on.
