The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi Reylo fanfic recommendations.
Pre The Force Awakens
Stories that take place during or before the events in TFA. These are AU’s which have Rey and Kylo/Ben meeting before TFA. Events of TFA may or may not take place within the stories.
n. the ambiguous intensity of looking someone in the eye, which can feel simultaneously invasive and vulnerable
Rey’s the youngest detective to be promoted in the Resistance Police Department, and her first case wasn’t looking all that promising until Unkar Plutt was found dead in the old apartments she used to rent. Now, as the jagged pieces of an obscene puzzle start to fall into place, the only way to stop the killer may be to drag herself through her past.
I have a feeling there’s gonna be a lot more of these now that TLJ is out, yay!! Once again, this rec contains fics with TLJ spoilers in it, so if you haven’t seen the movie, skip on over this for now. Will edit as more are found/written; suggestions welcome!
I certainly do!! Here is my Word Count ~90,000 rec, and here are some mature/explicit Reylo fics for you, ranging between 40 and 76 chapters. ❤ Suggestions welcome!
Oh no problem, it wasn’t your English (seriously, it’s great) I just wanted to make sure I understood – because there are varying levels of ‘eating!rey’ that came to mind and I wanted to make sure I steered you right LOL
ON THAT NOTE, nothing quite comes to mind – however I do know two people who I suspect will definitely will have either fics they’ve written or suggestions themselves – @chubbyreylo and @cobwebbing
While a lot of their stuff is more to do with weight gain or size ‘kink’ specifically, I suspect they’ll be able to give some great recs where Rey enjoys food in general as well.
I hope that helps = I’m sorry, I’m sure there are fics I’ve read with scenes like that in them but nothing really comes to mind at all and it’s not something I’ve tagged my bookmarks with.
Oh man oh man, the only tinder AU I’ve read is this one – Swipe Right. They don’t technically ‘meet’ on Tinder though? Might be that one – I did just recommend it in my modern Au post.
If any others come to mind, lovelies, please let us know! =)
@lymra suggested it may be in short order by pontmercy44 – also a good possibility
Happy New Year to you too =) Thanks for the kind words.
Modern AUs! Yes I do, and student/teacher dynamics are one of my favorites so here are a few I dug up for you. This is not exhaustive because I started doing it and then realized I can’t just dump 20 fics on you at once so…
Modern AUs
Swipe Right – yes it’s a tinder AU, it’s also a college!AU
Proclivity – this one kind of has a student/teacher vibe, Kylo is a professor and Rey is a student, but not in each others’ class – and he’s more her editor than anything. Good stuff.
Overnight Sensation – I SCREAMED ABOUT THIS ONE A FEW MONTHS AGO, BUT IT’S INCREDIBLE – KYLO REN AS AN OLYMPIC SWIMMER??!! I DIE.
Like a Technicolor Hue – this is basically an incredible taylor swift!Rey AU with a Kylo hard rocker style and they go on tour. It’s amazing. I recommend it (obviously..)
Her Becoming – um so this one is…beautiful, amazing, and intense and you should read it. basically fbi!rey and criminal!kylo go on an adventure.
English Girls, Approximately – godddddddd what a fic, singer/songwriter angsty Kylo Ren, grown up take-no-shits Rey. Bless.
AQUARIUM – I recommended this on twitter like a month and a half ago as I binge read it and it just lkwejf,wnf – it’s Rey and Kylo doing a modern art piece where they live in the MET’s fishbowl exhibit every day. Strangers. Very good.
Allez Cuisine! – hrrrrng I don’t know what it is but I adore chef AUs, anyway Kylo is a famous chef who loses to Poe (with Rey on his team) in Iron Chef and then it just rolls from there.
Professor/Student
Professor Ren – arrogant professor kylo, shakespeare, and rey in a slow burn. can’t ask for much more (OTHER THAN FOR IT TO BE COMPLETED, I CRY)
Epithumia – visiting professor, sleepy rey, in the secret book room of the library doing research. no really.
Adjunct – visiting professor Kylo Ren, in the theater department. Rey is a set design student. =))
Prompt: The shirtless scene, in reverse. Extremely angsty instead of sexy, because that’s how I roll..
The bond stays closed for several weeks after Crait.
Rey had thought it would be harder, that she’d spend every waking moment stitching together the loose threads of it, warp and weave a barrier to herself just to keep him out.
