ace!fic for my darling Nell

So to get this reccing party started, I am starting with a set of fics dealing with asexuality for my darling zeenell. Because NELL MADE THE MISTAKE OF VENTURING INTO THE AO3 TAG UNACCOMPANIED, and I think it is my duty to keep her from doing that again for a while. ♥ (Some of these I know I've recced before, but I am going to rec them again for completeness sake.)

Gen Fic

so you were never a saint. (12319 words) by paperclipbitch (James Bond, gen, teen) - Q's life is SO CONFUSING to him, but it turns out that he's rather fond of it, in the end.

love is for children and other lies (30095 words) by fahye (Avengers, gen, teen) - Natasha's life before, during, and after the Red Room. (Mix of comics canon and movie 'verse, relationships happen, but aren't really the point.)

Forty Years and Eight Pounds (The Skin Hunger Variations) (2419 words) by bironic (SGA, gen, teen) - John just wants to be touched, but doesn't know how to ask for it for many varied reasons. (Oh bb. I KNOW THIS FEEL.)

Relationship Fic

Electric Feels (12779) by TardisIsTheOnlyWayToTravel (Avengers, Coulson/JARVIS, teen) - the implications of JARVIS being a fully cognizant AI are actually REALLY adorable.

'Til Break of Day (8083 words) by bendingsignpost (The Hobbit, Bilbo/Thorin, teen) - Thorin introduces Bilbo to the joys of snuggling.

Waiting for Duke Nukem Forever by flyingthesky (Bandom, Mikey/Pete, mature) - Pete and Mikey just fit together nicely. If this fic, or some variation of it, didn't actually happen in real life, I will turn in my tinhat.

To live for a moment in unison (9623 words) by SidneySussex (Avengers, Clint/Coulson, teen) - wherein two people who think they are broken discover that either they are broken in complementary ways, or they are not broken after all. Either way, they don't have to break up, which is a huge relief.

and the rivers shall give up their dead (9384 words) by raven (BBC Sherlock, John/Mary, John/Sherlock, teen) - Emotional constipation, polyamory, and people not actually being dead. It's like a trifecta of some my most favorite things! :D

Your Moral Crisis is Stupid (8354 words) by Stochastical (BBC Sherlock, John/Sherlock, explicit) - coercion works both ways Sherlock. It's not that John minds you being ace, it's just that he minds you not telling him. (Also John is being a little stupid, but we love him anyway.)

Allowed (42576 words) by the_ragnarok (Inception, Arthur/Eames, explicit) - All relationships have boundaries, their's just has a few more around the sexual components.

Mosaic (6297 words) by isabeau (X-Men, Charles/Erik, teen) - you know, there are very few couples that I could believe of having quite THIS level of miscommunication. Charles and Erik are one of them, and they are kind of adorable when you want to bop their heads together.

Dulce Domum (2649 words) by busaikko (SGA, John/Rodney/Jennifer, all) - Rodney and Jennifer just want John to know that they are 100% OK with having a group marriage with him.

Relationship Fic involving Kink

Here You Come With Your Open Hands. by (3817 words) by lannamichaels (Les Misérables, Enjolras/Grantaire, mature) - a modern AU wherein Grantaire is sick of having to reexplain his boundaries every time he wants to sub for someone, Enjolras is insufferable, and maybe these two crazy kids are entirely meant for each other.

The Paths of Desire (4936 words) by telesilla (SGA, John/Rodney, explicit) - Pain is GREAT, and John and Rodney come to an understanding that, despite the fact that they have different definitions of what they get from it, they can still work together on this.

Indecorous (55424 words) by basingstoke (BBC Sherlock, John/Mary/Sherlock, explicit) - Written before Mary was introduced on the show, so not canon compliant at ALL, but I think I like this version better any way. Mary and John and Sherlock explore a poly triad, and kink, and being emotionally honest with each other. Possibly one of my most favorite fics in any fandom ever.

Into the Unknown by flyingthesky (The Social Network, Mark/Eduardo, mature) - I mean, going into an unnegotiated D/s relationship is a pretty bad idea ANYWAY, but it's Mark and Eduardo, so even though the story doesn't end with the tragedy, the fact that you know it's looming the entire time somehow makes the whole story seem even more fraught than it already was.

A Country That Has No Language (7818 words) by language_escapes (St. Trinians, Polly/Kelly/Annabelle, mature) - EVERYONE IN THE WORLD should go read all of Chosen and Defined, but this should stand alone pretty well. Kelly and Polly and Annabelle complete each other in different ways, and sometimes those ways involve wax. \0/

The Parity of Zero (4101 words) by busaikko (SGA, John/Rodney, explicit) - Caning is great, and everybody can get something out of it, even if they don't want to get off.
