    randomly fantastic xreader fic that feels so satisfying to read. syndicate wasn’t exactly the best AC game but this just really captured the imagination. the way the author depicted victorian london felt so alive and, despite generally disliking fic with a big focus on small children, i found the little found family so cute.

    incredibly wholesome read with a bit of excitement brought in, as it should with jacob frye!!

    scooped me hollow like i’m a perfectly ripe avocado.

    that fic i read at my desk but really shouldn’t have because i started crying and could not stop and had to pretend to sneeze and that i was having allergies.

    i think the most terrible part to reread would be the beginning when dream seems so content with his life choices all of a sudden and i am haunted by that line about the Dreaming. really liked desire’s arc and lucienne’s and hob broke my heart.

    when he proposed his future ‘husbandry’ i could not stop leaking. really glad everyone was gone for lunch.

    the more i think about it the more i think this option hurts everyone even more than the canon one. at least in canon he objectively just died-ish. here he is still there; he has just totally removed his individuality to serve only his function to an awful extreme.

    anyway, mostly hurt; some comfort!; enormous feels.

    hob spends his post-wwii period becoming a crime lord and, through shenanigans, ends up rescuing dream from his basement fishbowl. found family best family and unexpectedly sweet romance abounds. the plot progresses from there except dream and job are husbands and there’s some level of emotional health going on and the whole thing where their marriage bond(?) just utterly ruins john dee’s day? gloriously satisfying.

    fem!lqg is such a vibe. she’s so pure and resolute and i really do get what sqq means by ‘perfect woman in a perfect world’ and she grows so much from being with him and you can see sqq grow as well.

    and they are so in love!!! the way lqg just shares her vulnerabilities because of that inherent confidence and her trust in sqq is just !!!!!!!

    it’s just such a great relationship. not sure it was as healthy on sqq’s side but i’m also so proud of him for growing past his passive resignation to life and starting to expect and fight for things that he deserves rather than wants.

    i’m just so proud of them both??? and the liu clan grandma was so wonderful.

    this was just a really wonderful liujiu fic.
