2. You may not recommend material created by members of your own team.


3. Each recommendation must include at least three full sentences about why it’s awesome. Please use the format specified below.


4. You may recommend as many sets as you like, so long as each set has at least three recs in it.

Rec 1: untitled Dave♥Rose; surreal horror + slice of life
Team: Sollux♥Terezi
Creator: rieduentant
Why I’m recommending it: There's something really creepy about this. You'd think that with all the horrorterror fiction in the fandom, that it'd get old after a while, but this story twists it in the creepiest direction and makes it feel brand new. You're never quite sure if Dave's actually experiencing the things he's experiencing, and somehow it all seems so day to day at the same time.

Rec 2: The Single Glimpse – Dave♥Rose; southern gothic + lovecraftian horror
Team: Dave♥Rose♥Terezi
Creator: magnificentbastards
Why I’m recommending it: Any story where Dave is uncomfortable is cool by me. This plays it perfectly because while you can tell he cares about Rose a lot, he's also absolutely terrified of the connection to the horrorterrors that she has. She's mostly okay with them talking to her and changing her, but you get to see the whole thing through Dave's eyes, which makes you the reader uncomfortable as well. Really cool fic.

Rec 3: untitled Dave♥Rose; rule 63 + lovecraftian horror
Team: Dave♥Rose♥Terezi
Creator: herfortythieves
Why I’m recommending it: I love these character designs. Love short haired girl Dave and a suit redesign of my favorite Rose dress. Also you can really tell how uncomfortable Dave is through the straight face, with her arms crossed as the tentacles get closer. I'm sure Ross is about to show her up and then call her a wuss.
