OK, since this community is apparently NOT dead (yay!) I was wondering if anyone has any fic recs--particularly NEW/(RELATIVELY) RECENT fics?
I read prolifically in the fandom circa roughly 2010-2013, exploring everything from AO3 and FF.Net to LJ and user-owned fic archives, so I'm already familiar with most of the classics. But since then, I haven't read as much. So I was wondering if anybody had fic they'd rec that has been written 2014-2018?
I greatly prefer Shindou/Touya, but I will happily read nearly any ship if it's good (or gen!) I like longfic over oneshots, but again--if it's good, I'll read it! WIPs are not entirely out of the question, though of course complete stories are preferred. NSFW is OK!
I generally don't like AU much-- I love canon divergence and "what if?" stuff, but settings/scenarios that are way different from the source material aren't really my speed. (However, if you have something truly excellent, like the most amazingly well-researched Heian period fic or a supremely in-character werewolf story, feel free to send it my way and I might check it out anyway.)
Feel free to rec your own fic! I love self-promotion!
Thanks in advance, everybody!

Also laughing a bit at the description of 2010-2013 as the classics. That's at least the second or third fannish revival...there are fics dating all the way back to 1999. But it's wonderful to see the fandom still going strong, almost twenty years later.
