Bonus Round 6

Recs

Hey, shippers! This is the last bonus round, which we’re all very sad about. So let’s talk about some of the awesome stuff created throughout the HSO!

Rules

1. Rec at least three fanworks from the main or bonus rounds! They do not have to be connected to each other in any way.


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.

Title & Rec Format
If you are doing a fill, use this format in your title.
FILL: TEAM [YOUR SHIP]
Replace [YOUR SHIP] with the name of the team YOU belong to; please use the characters and quadrant, not whatever portmanteau or nickname you've come up with.
If your team name is not in this format and in the title we cannot guarantee that it will be counted.

The content of the post should be in this format (extend as necessary):
<b>Rec 1:</b> (title) <b>Team:</b> (the team the creator belongs to) <b>Creator:</b> <b>Why I’m recommending it:</b> (please be as specific and descriptive as possible!) <b>Rec 2:</b> (Title) <b>Team:</b> (the team the creator belongs to) <b>Creator:</b> <b>Why I’m recommending it:</b> (please be as specific and descriptive as possible!) <b>Rec 3:</b> (Title) <b>Team:</b> (the team the creator belongs to) <b>Creator:</b> <b>Why I’m recommending it:</b> (please be as specific and descriptive as possible!)

Posts not using this format in the title will be understood to be unofficial discussion posts, no matter what they contain. They, like all comments on the comm, are subject to the Wank Policy.

First 5 entries in each post: 30 (per entry)
Entries 6-10 in each post: 20 (per entry)

some round 1 things that I couldn't vote for at first because sector

Rec 1: Says the Dragon to the Mama Cat (http://hso2012-r1.dreamwidth.org/7039.html)
Team: Nepeta<3Terezi
Creator: Round 1 Team Entry
Why I’m recommending it: First off, the art is gorgeous. The style is super adorable, and I really liked the use of colour as well. Second, with good-looking comics I often find that the writing is... not that good, but this is not the case at all. It's pretty simplistic, but I think it really works, well enough to stand on its own, although it's obviously even better together with the illustrations.

Rec 2: Bets Worth Taking (http://hso2012-r1.dreamwidth.org/6223.html)
Team: Aradia<3Rose
Creator: Round 1 Team Entry
Why I’m recommending it: I don't think I even considered Aradia<3Rose before I read this entry, but now I ship it?? One of the things that really sold me on this fic is that it manages to establish the AU and do a lot of exposition in such a short time without it seeming trite at all, which is pretty impressive if you ask me. I really enjoyed it. Also, the dialogue is really enjoyable.

Rec 3: Sopor Face (http://hso2012-r1.dreamwidth.org/7749.html#cutid3)
Team: Gamzee<3Roxy
Creator: Round 1 Team Entry
Why I’m recommending it: It made me laugh. I'm generally really impressed with people who are good at rewriting songs to fit fandom stuff, and whoever did this is def. one of those people. I just wish there was more. Also there's pretty art, so you have something to stare longingly at while you listen. Generally really well put together.
