Recent Reads #3, Part 1: Ficlets
Since it is taking me forever to compile this edition, I thought I’d go ahead and release the ficlet part. AO3 fics will follow in a separate post.
Here’s a sampling of ficlets I read and enjoyed between March 4th and 28th, 2018. Where the author included a wordcount/rating, I used that. Otherwise I did my own.
[I might have slept with your robe while you were gone] by @glass-oceans, 556 words, T
Super sweet and soft, with a surprise at the end 😉

Some truly excellent dirty talk, and an amusingly flustered Hux.

I love this characterization of Kylo.
Insubordination by @theweddingofthefoxes, 360 words, M
Hux likes misbehaving, because Ren gives him the finest punishments. This is an absolute treat.
[touch-starved kylo] by @sisterimelda, 855 words, G
This is really really sweet!
My half of Kylo Ren art trade with buddy @feyuca. Her request was High School AU Kylo. I have never drawn an AU before, so that happened LOL.
I imagine he has the perfect life. Well off and well respected parents with connections to be successful. Great genes so he’s tall and strong, his parents probably make him do sports. Yet he’s still a petulant child who thinks he got short changed by society and won’t make any friends.
He won’t even be friends with the only other loser at school, Hux.
(Although they become frenemies later when they end up attending the same college and then get scouted by the same company with a really creepy boss they both try to suck up to)
People on twitter were interested in these, so I thought I’d post the pre-order form here!
These are hard enamel and brass pins. The chain comes with the pair, but if you order a single pin, a star charm will be attached to the bottom. They come with a butterfly clutch for security. They’ll never leave. Never.
They pre-order price is cheaper than regular, so grab them now if you’re interested.
Kylux and Hux pair: $18
Singles: $10
LOOK
Hux opened his door, scattering those thoughts as he circled the car to stand beside Ben, peering up at the blinking neon sign proclaiming their destination as Joe’s Breakfast Shack. The lights behind the S had burned out, a dubious portent for the little diner.
Thunder pealed overhead, the wind picking up, flinging pieces of a discarded newspaper off a nearby bench. Hux tucked his hands in his armpits.
“Is this a date, Ben Solo?” he dared to ask, raising an eyebrow with a smile that felt more hopeful on his lips than taunting.
Ben didn’t take his bait, and instead shrugged out of his black letter jacket. He’d draped it around Hux’s narrow shoulders before Hux realized what was happening.
Hux belatedly tried to sidestep away, but Ben didn’t let go of the lapels. “I’m fine,” Hux insisted.
“You’re shivering,” Ben countered, brow furrowed as he met Hux’s eyes. There was something protective about his gaze.
a scene from chapter 4 of @kyluxtrashcompactor’s fic i can see through you (see to the real you)! please go take a read; it’s an amazing story about “bad boy” Hux and good student Ben and how they meet each other halfway and I love it! PS. thanks to all who came to my first official stream and watched me draw💕 [background image]
