figure skating recs for darkgloom

[acchikocchi]

How I acquired this knowledge: during a stressful week sometimes you just want to read a lot of really ridiculous fic covering every trope known to man.


darkgloom is informed on Johnny/Stéphane so these are all Johnny/Evan. Starred are particularly satisfying.

Warning: all of these are in progress except for parallel universe #2, pairs, and sochi. but they update quickly.

-- the marriage of convenience*
-- the one where johnny gets amnesia
-- the one where johnny wakes up in a parallel universe*
-- the one where evan wakes up in a parallel universe*
-- the one where they're a pairs team
-- the one with the soulbonding at sochi* <-- THE ONE I WANT TO ACTUALLY HAPPEN uh minus the soulbonding
-- the parent trap AU
-- its backstory* <-- omg SO GOOD may possibly be my favorite for characterization
-- the one where evan wants johnny to teach him to be more genuine
-- the one with the leaked sex tape

other:
-- anything by favorite bandom writer jocondite, especially the johnny/stéphane cinderella AU

The problem with reading Johnny/Evan fic is, well, Evan. Who on a personal level is turning out to be such a tool it's almost endearing - is he seriously that clueless or is he hyper-aware and full of double meanings?? - but as a skater NO, NO, A THOUSAND TIMES NO. And, like, reminding myself EVERY DAY that he won gold (and nationals, and -- ) is so horrifying.

Someday I will wake up and the new scoring system will all be a bad dream.

Anyway, pairing-wise, I've always been incredibly fond of Lambiel but as usual I'm drawn to the train wreck instead. ._.

If you are avoiding the cut you may have a heartbreaking fanvid instead. T_T

*dies* Kind of exactly why I started with Johnny/Stephane first... I saw the cute youtube clips and the pics where Johnny looked like he was on Stephane's lap.

I miss the days with Plushenko and Yagudin :/

thank you for the rec list!! ♥

EVAN IS A LIFE RUINER WHO RUINS LIVES.

But adorable some of the time.

SO CONFLICTED!

I need skating icons.

THE MARRIAGE ONE IS THE GREATEST THING EVER

but see, my problem is not with evan's toolishness - i am cool with tool. i'm in a fandom with chad michael murray who epitimises tool. it's just - did even have to be such an orange tool?

I understand, when I was stressed this last week I went and read Harry Potter fanfiction as;k;a which has been around for so long pretty much everything has been writeten. T_T

AHAHAHA oh Mer. Evan's tool-ness kills me but it is also what has endeared him to me. D: I ship Johnny/Stephane like burning but Johnny/Evan fic is, in general, better/more. :(

ALSO, I am the only person who writes hetfic in FS fandom apparently. I wrote PChan/Yuna and Stephane/Shizuka for the meme but I can't ever post it anywhere because all the comms are for slash! :(

i want there to be more of the one where they get accidentally drunken married so badly it's a little ridiculous.

......i somehow regressed into skating fandom over vacation, googled "figure skating fic recs" just now and found this post. MER WHY WEREN'T WE FRIENDS BEFORE 2011 wow. so fandom. very otp. much telepathy. amaze.

but seriously, stephane is my favorite (predictably enough, my favorite skaters are always the super-artistic-but-not-technically-stellar ones) and yet i can't stop reading johnny/evan. what is this saucery.
