A Study in Fic: The World’s Most Random Rec Post 

Hello, dear followers. First of all, we want to thank everyone who sent us supportive messages after we went on hiatus. We’d especially like to thank those of you who promptly exploded angst-clouds of despair all over our dash and inbox. Your tears were delicious 

It’s so wonderful to know that y’all miss us when we’re gone.

As some of you may remember, about four score and seven years ago, we promised you a list of the fic submitted during our fandom-wide scavenger hunt, A Study in Fic. 

Seeing as those submissions numbered somewhere in the low hundreds (and we didn’t ask for quality), we figured it would be best if we vetted them a bit first. So here, for your reading pleasure, is the Study in Fic Rec List.
