If anyone has good recs pls tell, my faves are Katalepsis, Unjust Depths, and in that vein, anything with trans or lesbians or communists or leftists in general and thats gripping ty :3 wanting to read at work more lol
One of my favourite series of all time is Jean Auel’s Earths Children series, about cavepeople. From the third book on, the protagonist lives in matriarchal, communist societies, free love, everything shared, people can be gay, in throuples, whatever they want. But at the end they discover where babies come from, and the society turns patriarchal and it ends with women clearly about to lose their freedom.
I already recc’d The Years of Apocalypse to you the other day but I’ll put it here again for anybody else reading the thread.
Sunspot is great, lots of gender happening in there.
Noctoseismology and What Little Remains of Terpsichore Ironheart are both good but also very horny trans-centered stories.
I read Sunspot actually a wayy back buf I didnt like it as it seemed too anime-ish and at times very incelish if I recall, was long ago, just didnt like the vibe but maybe I missed the point
Those two look great thank you so much!!
The anime-ish I don’t dispute, Ezzen’s main companions are Magical Girls, and what makes a Magical Girl is a major throughline.
What you were seeing as incelish, I suspect, was actually eggish though.
Fair enough, I read it long ago at the rec of a friend that said it’s awesome, so I don’t remember much lol
I’ve begun reading Noctoseismology as good horny trans stories are peak ty!! :3
Have fun! That author also has other good and trans works that are too horny for RR, like A New Kind of Grind
haha that seems silly and fun ty!! you’re a goldmine of recs :3 I doubt I’ll even have this much time to read lol
Thank you, that’s a very meaningful compliment!
Also on Scribblehub are the works of QuietValerie which are all cute trans lesbian coming of age stories. I especially enjoy Ryn of Avonside, Digital Galaxies, and her current one, Gauntlette.
oo sounds cute :3 ty!!!
I really enjoyed Forty Millenniums of Cultivation
It’s a (3000 chapter!) sci/fi cultivation fic written by a Chinese communist who drinks their respect women juice.
It discusses a lot of concepts in really interesting ways, has good and believable character development, and has a beautiful, hopeful, message, and regular scenery tearing xianxia mecha space battles with the fate of the universe at stake.
Woah I havent read anything mecha but the author sounda cool and the story sounds great ty!!
been recommending this one a lotThanks :3
This is an outside pick but I really like the paradox megacampaign Blood in the Bosphorous. There’s a ton of it https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3603375&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=1
I’m completely clueless about HOI4 styled games didnt know you could do storytelling with it
It might not have quite the same kick if you’ve not been neck deep in ck2 but I can vouch for the epistolary style and the strength of the prose
I thought of another one! I’m convinced this can be read with zero familiarity with caves of qud or touhou, but I have yet to test this hypothesis https://archiveofourown.org/series/2131317
I only know touhou is bullet hell XD Sure tysm!
