There is SO MUCH YULETIDE FIC, I love this time of year! I'm waiting to make a full rec post until authors' names are revealed, so I don't have to go back and edit the entry later, but I have to direct you guys to this one in particular ASAP:

This story is nice and long, and full of *chef's kiss* beautiful pining. Plus deadly spiders, solid gold bras and hot Olympic athletes.

I also accidentally tripped over, and then obviously had to reread, this classic of Yuletides past:

Four Seasons (4147 words) by Toft
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Oglaf, Old Spice Guy (Commercials)

Watching:

I already watched [tumblr.com profile] longnationalnightmare's Queliot & Margo supercuts of all three seasons of the Magicians, and decided the one thing they were missing that I actually cared about was Penny, so now I'm watching the actual show (for my sins). Up to S1E12 now, and I love Penny, have skipped everything with Julia in it (made very convenient because all her scenes are lit blue), love Eliot exactly as much as I already knew I did, and have enjoyed watching Margo really come into her own as a character. This show is trashy but lovable, exactly how I like 'em.

(So far I've been tracking Penny's characterization based on his outfits.  The more chest is showing, the happier he is.  When he buttons his shirt up all the way, SOMETHING IS TERRIBLY WRONG.)

Re: Eliot's appeal, there is also a great recent meta post from [personal profile] greywash about why he's such a compelling character!

And final question for you all: are there any good active Magicians comms out there?  I would love to chat about Season 4 as it comes out next month, but I suspect running one comm is enough responsibility for me.

Die Young by [archiveofourown.org profile] longnationalnightmare
Fandom: The Magicians
Relationships: Quentin Coldwater/Eliot Waugh
Characters: Quentin Coldwater, Eliot Waugh
Summary: i was gonna die young / now i gotta wait for you, honey
Notes: This vid is legit, and the song is really catchy. Captures motion really well.


Parachute
by [personal profile] thingswithwings
Fandom: Leverage
Relationships: Alec Hardison/Parker/Eliot Spencer
Characters: Alec Hardison, Parker, Eliot Spencer
Summary: I don't need a parachute, baby, if I've got you.
           Notes: Now I want to watch the show, if they really touch this much!


be yourself my ally (15531 words) by [archiveofourown.org profile] imperfectcircle
Fandom: Wonder Woman
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Etta Candy/Diana (Wonder Woman)
Characters: Hippolyta (Wonder Woman), Original Female Character(s)
Additional Tags: Fake/Pretend Relationship, Huddling For Warmth, accidental animal acquisition, Pampering, Fluff, only the faintest hint of plot
Summary: “That’s all very flattering,” Etta says when Diana has finally run out of steam, “but surely you have more qualified candidates than me?”
“You are of the world of men.” Diana looks a little embarrassed. “But not a man.”
-- Diana and Etta go back to Themyscira.
Notes: This is super super sweet and features one of the best plausible misunderstandings I've ever seen. And it wasn't anachronistic! At no point did I have to nope out because of historical mistakes! (I'm real picky. Ask me about elasticated underwear in Peggy Carter WWII era fic.)


Bonus: I'm also catching up on season 4 of DC's Legends of Tomorrow (having not seen any previous seasons). It's... not good. BUT they have Maisie Richardson-Sellers playing a swaggery kinda butch shapeshifter lady who IS good... at wearing leather pants and being hot. So I would recommend the show for specific reasons but not in general.
