Thursday Recs

[soc_puppet]

Hello again for Thursday Recs!

Since it's Thanksgiving in the United States, where I live, I'm linking to the Lakota Law Project and the Wôpanâak Language Reclamation Project. They're good organizations that do important work.


Do you have a rec for this week? Just reply to this post with something queer or queer-adjacent (such as, soap made by a queer person that isn't necessarily queer themed) that you'd, well, recommend. Self-recs are welcome, as are recs for fandom-related content!

Or have you tried something that's been recced here? Do you have your own report to share about it? I'd love to hear about it!

Summary:

Ah. The Asshole Dog is loose again. Lan Zhan knows that it is not the dog’s fault for being an asshole, but The Asshole Dog is the reason Lan Zhan had a fence put in at a significant personal expense, because the alternative was allowing his garden to be destroyed and for Bunny to be menaced on her leashed outdoor adventures. Unacceptable. The Most Beautiful Man in the World cringes at the barking, scooting further away from the door through a sea of a dozen broken eggs and leaving a yolky trail in his wake.

“Fuck,” he whimpers, curling into a ball, both hands wrapped around the back of his neck as if to—as if to protect himself, Lan Zhan realizes. “Fuck, fuck, fuck, please—” The Most Beautiful Man in the World begs, voice ragged. He’s definitely hyperventilating now, from what Lan Zhan can tell between the audible sobs. There’s another bark from outside, and The Most Beautiful Man in the World flinches bodily, making a terrified sound that Lan Zhan feels behind his ribs.

Or: A meet ugly, a dog, and the beginning of something wonderful.

Summary:

Wei Ying glances at his reflection in the mirror—yep, still him, all messy black-brown hair, red pointed ears, and sleep-squinty eyes—and yawns, wondering what Lan Zhan made for breakfast and what kind of sappy-ass note he left with it—

Wait.

Wait.

Red pointed ears?

Wei Ying blinks twice, shakes his head, and looks at his reflection again. His reflection looks back at him, hair mussed and eyes wide and ears pointed straight up and forward in alarm, his tail puffed out as he evaluates the threat—what the fuck, his tail?!

Or: Wei Ying's been both human and fox his whole life, but not like this.

I’m a couple chapters into that first story and loving it; thanks for the rec!

I've just started reading Last Night At The Telegraph Club by Malinda Lo, and Oh, but it is wonderful. Pretty clearly setting up the main character to have a queer awakening any chapter now :)
