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.

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):


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.

Rec 1: AR Protects His Family
Team: (AR<3PM<3WV)
Creator: Main Round 2 entry
Why I’m recommending it: This picture is so simple yet so powerful. It's has clear cut lines and coloring, it's nothing fancy and that's what I love about it. It shows such a powerful message that really makes me have a bad case of the ~feels~ in such a small piece! AR is clearly doing his best to protect his family as you can clearly see, he wants to make sure their safe. This is something we can all empathize with, a need to protect loved ones! Seeing such a powerful thing that we all feel played out with these characters is really heart warming.

Rec 2: Monster Under The Bed
Team: (Dave<3Kanaya<3Rose)
Creator: Main Round 2 entry
Why I’m recommending it: The story from the start felt really powerful to me, in a way I didn't understand. It's almost like something about this felt very familiar to me, like it was something I grew up with. (I mean the basic storyline, and not the classic monster under the bed thing.) I loved the whole play through, I'm telling you this is great! The way Rose and Dave don't react oddly at all to a monster being in their room is very typical of their characters. It makes me really sad that she was 'weird' and just knowing they'll die :/ Definitely a good story to read, though your heart might explode.

Rec 3: Whisper
Team: (Aradia<>Tavros)
Creator: Main Round 2 entry
Why I’m recommending it: My heart hurts from this, I started tearing up a little bit. The art is really nice, clear, and pretty. The story of it is very nice, basically Aradia gets Tavros to do her a favor and it's just to find the scrapbook she had of them together. Literally the saddest thing, it doesn't get sadder than team charge.
