We return to Hogwarts for a special Christmas episode of Shiprecs. Audrey was expecting a ton of pushback for suggesting this super-dark and angsty Christmas tale, but instead she discovers that we’re all sluts for Snape and Christmas-y misery. And all Abby wants for Christmas is McGonagall fics.

Mira’s Marvel pick is a funny and romantic Darcy Lewis/Loki fic by AnonymousMink. Notably, Darcy Lewis does it with Loki when he’s in his true (frost giant) form, and it’s actually kind of sweet. And we discover that frost giants are ribbed for her pleasure.
We recorded this episode the day before the Loki Disney + show premiered, so enjoy our clueless speculation about what may be in the Loki series.
Note: This is our second Marvel pick, but our first was lost to audio issues. So if we mention Abby's pick or Loki the "Marshmallow Boy" that's why.

We’re going 90s for this special halloween episode and reading a three-part Spike/Buffy story by Verity Watson. Is it acceptable for vampires to kill people? Were cargo pants ever sexy? Why is Spike/Buffy called Spuffy and not Spiffy? That last one is not a rhetorical question, I’m genuinely asking.

In this episode we vote on the best of the eight stories we read in the Star Wars fandom. Choosing was difficult because the Star Wars fandom really knows how to get down. Audrey gets judgemental about butts. And we introduce our next fandom, Marvel! We’ll be taking a break before posting any Marvel episodes, so if you have recs for us in the Marvel fandom you can contact us as always at [email protected]. We’re looking for explicit stories over 30k words.
The ladies love this sweet, slow-burn romance between Mando and Luke Skywalker. Author PepperPrints takes extreme liberties with Star Wars sequel cannon, the future of the Jedi order and the Mandalorians, and we eat it uuuuuup! And Audrey does some bitching about the sequel trilogy in this one so for the record: Reylo for life!!!
Drink Pairing: Yerba Mate Whiskey Toddy
In this Obi-Wan Kenobi/reader insert fic, the Force finally reaches its full sexual potential. Also, Obi-Wan gives the hottest goddamn apology ever. We were straight-up discombobulated by the sex in this story and had to edit about 45 minutes of girlish tittering out of this episode.
GuardianAngelCas, if you ever need an organ or something, hit us up. Can’t vouch for the livers but I’m sure some of us at least have some decent kidneys.

The Hunter Gets Captured by the Game
Although the version we really want is not on Spotify, it is the Massive Attack version (i.e. the one from the Batman Forever soundtrack dear god I’m old)
We have a ton of fun with this crack-ish Reylo fic, in which Kylo Ren moonlights as a romance author and Rey can't get enough of his books. Emo author Kylo Ren doodling "Rey" and hearts into his glittery notebook during First Order meetings is an image that will stick with us unto the grave.

Mira’s latest pick is a Mando/reader insert. It also happens to have the most serious subject matter we’ve ever tackled on the show, as the reader character is deeply traumatized. We are varying degrees of not ready for that. And one of us is apparently a sociopath. Guess which one!
