Fandom Snowflake Challenge: Day Three
Day 3
In your own space, post a rec for at least three fanworks that you did not create. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so. See if you can rec fanworks that are less likely to be praised: tiny fandoms, rare pairings, fanworks other than stories, lesser-known kinks or tropes. Find fanworks that have few to no comments, or creators new to a particular fandom who maybe aren't well known or appreciated. Appreciate them.
Remember that recs don't have to be long or eloquent or ~deep (although if you are skilled at those types of recs, please don't hold back! :D). Squeeful capslocking, a bullet-pointed list of reasons you love a thing, audio or video rambles, a string of reaction gifs, even just a set of links with a header saying "these are great examples of X trope/kink/pairing/fanwork"... Create a themed list or just link to things you happen to like. Rec more than three things if you want to! Have fun with this. Share stuff you love!
You know me! I have a ton of recs lined up all the time. Here are 8 really good ones!

Title: Post-Raid Celebration
Pairing(s): Lucius/Dolohov/Draco/Macnair
Rating: NC-17
Contains: Nudity, orgy/gangbang, blowjobs
Why I loved it: The art is spectacular. I love the colours and how Draco and Lucius are so pale and practically hairless, and flushed along their torsos and faces, while the other two are bigger and thick and hairy. Draco's such a people pleaser in this art (myself included) and his cute pink little willy poking out of his boxers gives me great pleasure.

Title: Seas Between Us Broad Have Roared
Pairing(s): Ginny/Blaise
Rating: NC-17
Contains: infidelity, breathplay, anal sex, semi-public sex, spanking, belting, bondage, dirt talk (including name-calling), BDSM (dubiously safe & sane and not explicitly consensual), subspace
Summary: "We both know you were hoping and praying Potter would get called in tonight so you could come to me and get what you really need. What he won't give you. So can we drop the charade?"
Word Count: 4800
Why I loved it: God! I don't know how I feel about myself by how hot I found this fic. Pay close heed to the warnings if you have squicks or triggers. Blaise is such an arse in this, and totally takes things too far, but Ginny longs for it, returns to it, wishes she could get it from Harry and never will. At the end you see cracks in Blaise's mask and it's emotional and gripping and just gorgeously deviant.

Title: Friendly Advice or listen to the podfic at podficced by Mab
Pairing(s): Harry/Draco, Draco/Astoria
Rating: R
Contains: Violence against women, domestic violence, dubious morals
Summary: When Called to St. Mungo's in a case of suspected domestic violence, the last person Auror Harry Potter expected to see was a badly beaten-up Astoria Malfoy.
Word Count: 6000
Why I loved it: This fic is so sad in its stark realism. I feel pain for all the characters involved. If Draco could only take Harry's "friendly advice" there could be hope for all of them in the future. As it is, I can only see grief if things continue as they have done. It leaves me full of feels and I took great pleasure in making it into an audio fic. Vaysh's storytelling is compelling and so fulfilling!

Title: Give and Take
Pairing(s): Harry/Draco, Hermione/Ron, Dennis Creevy, OFC, OMC
Rating: NC-17
Contains: non-con between Harry and almost every other character in the story
Summary: War changes people, and Harry is no exception.
Word Count: 3300
Why I loved it: Harry is so dark and twisted in this fic, he's longed for the rush of power over other people and wants to feel ashamed after he first experiences it, but after he gets away with it, the addiction starts. It's brilliant how he sees the hypocrisy of what he does, joining the Aurors and rising to the top, while playing off other people's ability to see a monster in their midst. I just love this sort of mental twisted plot. It's fantastic.

Title: Double Date
Pairing(s): Lily/James, Remus/Sirius, Lily/James/Remus/Sirius
Rating: NC-17
Contains: group sex, voyeurism, established relationships
Summary: What Lily wants; Lily gets.
Word Count: 5000
Why I loved it: okay.. I have said in the past that I'm just not into marauders era fics.. Allow me to eat those words. This fic is so damn hot and kinky and just lovely. I love how the friends pair off, but are still drawn together to the point they bring it into the bedroom. Lily really shines in this for me, and I love how the author portrays James as well. If you're up for a good time, give this one a go!

Title: Dominance
Pairing(s): Percy/Oliver
Rating: PG-13
Contains: slight hints of D/s relationship
Summary: There is far more to Percy and Oliver than anyone else knows. It's their little secret.
Why I loved it: There's something about Mayfly's style that I can't get enough of. The colours are brilliant and I simply adore Percy's curls and Oliver tied up in the background yanks a rather embarrassing sound from my throat. nggh!

Title: Drip
Pairing(s): Sirius/Remus
Rating: NC-17
Contains: rough sex, post-sex fingering, drunken/tipsy sex, hair pulling, half-dressed sex, explicit nudity, handjob
Why I loved it: Oh. My. God! *keysmash* *stares* This art is very much NWS! The desperation and urgency in the characters expressions, partnered with a very porny close up of the mmmm… action, makes this a piece of art you will not want to miss! But please, not in front of the kids!

Title: Glass Slippers
Pairing(s): Hermione/Lucius, non explicit Hermione/Fenrir, Hermione/Ron
Rating: R
Contains: Repeated rape heavily implied, Character Death, Dark, Torture implied
Summary: Hermione gets ready for Christmas, but there's something lurking in the shadows and this year is going to be a Christmas like no other.
Word Count: 2200
Why I loved it: Gah! This fic! It's so much … what's the phrase… In her Mind Palace, (that will have to do.) I just ache with the hand Hermione has been dealt, but seeing how she uses her brain to survive by looking at life through a different perspective, it's quite beautiful and shows how strong she is. This fic is dark, but it's not horribly graphic and I thank the author for that!

And I've see the Ginny/Blaise one mentioned before, but yeah, I'm not sure I could handle it.
I commented on the Oliver/Percy art. I need to look into more Oliver/Percy.
