Thursday recs: A few fics in different fandoms

[sholio]

Slipping in under the wire here with a few things I've read lately that I liked! And also, scioscribe wrote my glorious Just Married gift fic and it is still excellent.

Heavy is the Head by glorious_spoon (Agent Carter, 2500 words)
Season 1-era Dooley POV on the trio. Really fun.

Blue Square by primeideal (Stranger Things, 1K words, Steve & Robin)
This was written in a tag-based exchange for the tag "Two Characters Who Don't Like Each Other Grudgingly Share A Ski Lift", and it delivers gloriously on that premise, as well as nailing the show's fun weirdness.

don't leave me hanging on like a yo-yo by firstaudrina (Stranger Things, 1300 wds)
Post-S3 Max & El friendship. Really sweet.

Hallway Light by snickfic (Captain Marvel, 1100 wds)
Pre-movie Carol & Yon-Rogg backstory, with a great glimpse of Hala and a perfect balance of genuine camaraderie and underlying creepiness.

I can't see any reason not to turn these posts into an open reccing thread, so tell me about anything you've found lately that's good!

ooh, Agent Carter rec!

:D :D

Aww, Dooley! We hated him at first, but the actor turned in such a good performance, and the way he went out was tear-inducing.

[sholio]

Yeah, the actor really knocked it out of the park. Sometimes that's the difference between a character who's simply loathsome, and one with a lot of nuance.

For some reason I missed the fandom, and I've never seen Stranger Things, so I had one of those gloriously fandom moments of deep confusion about whether this was a crossover involving El from White Collar and Max from Black Sails (or from Dark Angel.)

[sholio]

Hahaha. I love those weird little fandom moments. XD
