Day 8

In your own space, share a favorite piece of original canon (a TV episode, a song, a favorite interview, a book, a scene from a movie, etc) and explain why you love it so much.
I mentioned in the Day 6 post that To The Moon is one of my favorite small fandoms. To The Moon is an indie video game series by
Freebird Games that follows two doctors from Sigmund Corp a company that grants wishes to dying people. Here's the trailer for the first game.


I got introduced to the series by a fan in Ace Attorney fandom after they used a song from the soundtrack on their fanmix for one of my works and also said I'd probably like it because it has an autistic character. Later I learned it also hits my narrative kinks for odd couple partnerships and pop culture references.

Day 3

In your own space, post recs for at least three fanworks that you did not create.

This is mostly old stuff, but it's the fics I usually reread a lot for one reason or another.

Summary:

Ever since Carlos was little, he and his daemon have been fans of Dr. Lyra Belacqua. Both as the most groundbreaking experimental theologian of the 20th century, and as the heroine of dozens of fantasy-adventure children's stories (based very loosely on her own mysterious childhood).

But Lyra's true legacy is still bigger than Carlos ever imagined...until he took a team of scholars to study Rusakov particles in the most theologically interesting community in Hispania Nova. Now his own day-to-day life is full of things like angels, witches, hooded spectres, portals between worlds, vague yet menacing branches of the Magisterium, and a man who walks around without his daemon and can read an alethiometer as easily as a stop sign.
