Missed yesterday (I got over 3k on my Stucky AU Big Bang, which, considering how much pain I was in, was pretty amazing. I've averaged around just under or just over 3k whenever I've had a chance to write, this thing is turning into a behemoth) so here's two recs:

the pleasure principle (The Good Place, 15122 words, E) by [archiveofourown.org profile] yasaman
Summary: "When Eleanor makes the offer, she doesn’t expect Tahani to actually take her up on it. A woman like Tahani Al-Jamil is not going to stay at a tourist trap motel with Eleanor Shellstrop, Arizona trashbag."
What happens when Tahani does, in fact, take Eleanor up on her offer to stay with her in her Sydney motel room.

I'm still not through the number of Good Place fic in Yuletide yet, but this one seems to be pertty popular, and it's not surprising: it's Eleanor/Tahani, and a funny look at how terrible feelings are and how much Eleanor doesn't want them.

and

with autumn closing in (Logan Lucky, 2405, T)
Summary: Out of all the possible repercussions of a successful heist, Clyde Logan definitely did not anticipate a relationship with Dayton White being the one that turned his life upside down.

This was such a weird little surprise for me--I was scrolling through the list of fandoms and saw the film title, so I thought I'd see what was there. I barely recall anything about the movie, other than Sebastian Stan's three minutes of screen time, and even then I don't remember much of that besides his yoga poses and how nice he looked in a race driver uniform. I couldn't even recall the names of the characters outside of Seb's, and so wasn't sure if this was Adam Driver's character or Channing Tatum's! But I don't know, it sounded intriguing, and I definitely don't regret reading it, there's a dry, melancholy quality to it that I liked a lot, and I could see it unfolding just this way.

Fun fact -- Logan Lucky takes place in the southern part of my state, and is VERY true to the people and place (my bff and I were sitting in the theater as the lights went up on our phones checking to see if the person who wrote it is either from WV or has family in WV).
