Nat Trying To Survive The Whole Winter With Just Jackie & Ben & Travis & Javi While Spiralling From Lack

nat trying to survive the whole winter with just jackie & ben & travis & javi while spiralling from lack of purpose (meet me in the woods on ao3)

There are people out there that aren't?

Fuck it i’m coming out as a multishipper

I was going to write up a big list of JackieNat fic recs but AO3 went down so I'm gushing embarrassingly about my favourite JackieNat authors instead (my AO3 mutuals)

inthequietlight (I don't think they're on Tumblr):

Wonderful AUs. Like, super well thought out and full of life (even the zombie one lol) Their attention to detail is actually amazing. It frequently shocks me, seriously

Such sweet and complicated relationships between Jackie and Nat in all of them, and even Jackie's parents in a few. Strengths and weaknesses slot together so perfectly without dipping into codependency.

They've managed to write multiple OCs that I really care about too which is honestly wild

Warm and caring and slow building solid love, both platonic and romantic

@annoyedb101 tempi69 (such an amazing username):

They are so cruel, always hooking me into a fic and then doing it again and again. Demon Jackie, masc Jackie, situationship Jackie, ex wife Jackie. Seriously desperately need more

I don't know what it is about the way they write but it draws me in so hard. I'm barely stopping myself from begging for new chapters (I would never)

I even watched HotD so I could read one of their fics

Can't pin down a mood across all their fics, every one is so different!

@passionpita-taylorsversion passionpita (only put last because everyone should already know them):

All of their fics are like puzzles to me, pieces from the past constantly being slotted in to give context for the present, and clues for the future that are almost obvious in hindsight (I still miss most of them). "Drive it like you stole it babe" is seriously underappreciated and it's full of those

A thousand hints and callbacks and lore and references to tiny things that make paying full attention so rewarding.

Also it's completely unsurprising they're a published poet. I'm in love with the prose of their fics.

Melancholy, anxiety, dread, and brief windows of happiness that are all the more worth it

Hope this wasn't too weird? kinda hypomanic atm

silly little story where all the yellowjackets died in the cold freeze that came during doomcoming & the alt survivors Jackie Nat Ben Travis and Javi go through it 🤗

I love LATG so much!

I finished reading Lacey and the grudge by passionpita on ao3 IT WAS SO GOOD. and then ao3 went down when i was trying to give kudos😔
