Tantai Jin Apologist

It's been a while since I've done any kind of recs list post, so I thought I'd have a go at this. Instead of trying to pick just 10 fics as my favourites (Difficulty level: Impossible!), I decided to base it on which fics seem most overlooked, so I chose fics from my bookmarks that had under 500 kudos

Fandoms included: ATLA, SVSSS, MDZS, Watership Down, Star Wars, Good Omens, Untitled Goose Game
All are complete, with a variety of ratings & themes (ranging from chill G to E with archive warnings)

Rating: G
Wordcount: 4,363

Not having the imagination to see what this implies the angel miracles the box away and continues with their daily duties, blissfully unaware that the horror that had originally been hiding in the box has already been unleashed.

Rating: E
Wordcount: 4,513
Description: Wei Wuxian sucks a string of hickies around the base of his throat, a perverse necklace that matches the one Wei Wuxian wears. Lan Wangji can’t help the way the corner of his lips curl at the giggle his husband gives when he draws back to look, happy that they are both enjoying themselves.

Wordcount: 7,757
Description: In another version of events, perhaps, someone comes to his aid. Someone saves him, and he does not have to face degradation again, and again, and again. This is not that story.

Fandoms: SVSSS
Pairing: Moshang
Rating: T
Wordcount: 891

Rating: M
Wordcount: 6,111
Description: An alliance of young cultivators are looking for Xin Mo, and want Mobei-jun to tell them where and how to get it. It goes pretty badly for them, starting with the fact that their demon bindings and truth potions work.
How do you torture a demon enough to make them shut up?

Title: Amongst the Crystals

Title: The Warm Embrace of Long, Sharp Teeth
Fandoms: Star Wars
Pairing: Reylo
Rating: E
Wordcount: 18,847
Description: There are stories on Jakku that every child knows. Younglings who wander off into the cold, barren night and never come back. Ever-shifting monsters, too terrible for the mind to hold.
Stay close to the fire, my darling, stay close.
Rey knew these stories, too. She just didn't realize she was in one.

Fandom: Star Wars

Relationship(s): Reylo, platonic Roselo

Summary: Kylo Ren is forced to flee the First Order when Hux stages a coup, but any hope he might have had of reconciling with Rey is dashed when his former troops move on the Resistance, wiping them out. Unable to sense Rey in the Force (& so believing her dead), he vows revenge & declares war on the whole First Order, with the help of only a very confused Resistance technician, a couple of droids, & some porgs.

OR: Kylo Ren goes on a rollicking revenge rampage against a whole army & somehow becomes the new face of the Resistance as a result. BB-8 is so done. R2-D2 is even more done. Rose Tico isn't sure she signed up for this shit. But at least the porgs are happy.
