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 DIRK<3JAKE<3JANE<3ROXY

Three femslash recs!

Rec 1: the ghost of rockschool
Team: Aradia<3Jade
Creator: Round 1 entry
Why I’m recommending it: This piece has it all: striking art, gorgeous prose, body horror. Aradia<3Jade is my secret vice and this fic did a great job illustrating why they should hang out a ton and maybe kiss. It's a completely excellent use of the prompt, too!

Rec 2: Two Alien Girls Making Out On A Pile Of Zombie Corpses
Team: Nepeta<3Terezi
Creator: Round 2 entry
Why I’m recommending it: fraymotif's distinctive style works so well here, giving the movie poster pose a feeling of vibrancy and motion. The slightly twitching hand in the right corner is a great detail. My favorite part is probably the creative zombie kills you can extrapolate from the corpses, though, including the one with Nepeta's claw glove still embedded in its skull. Hott.

Rec 3: To Catch a Thief
Team: Terezi<3Vriska
Creator: Round 3 entry
Why I’m recommending it: This could work just as well as a Terezi♠Vriska entry, but you get the red of it all in the way that Vriska's clearly about two seconds from finishing that note off with "XOXOXO pick up some milk please!!!!!!!!" God, though, what isn't gorgeous about this? Look at the tiny Batman pose in the bottom of the Terezi section; look at the artful way their constellations got worked in; look at the fond "HMPH" at Vriska's 8-ball breaking. Everything's intentional but it's still dripping with life!
