FANDOM: Sonic the Hedgehog
FIC LINK: Bee buzzing on AO3
AUTHOR LINK: Noiat
RATING/WARNING(S): G for General Audiences
WIP?/WORD COUNT: Completed One Shot / 1,241 words
MAIN CHARACTERS: Charmy, Espio, Vector

FIC SUMMARY: Sometimes bees communicate with each other by buzzing, caused by the vibrations of their wings. Charmy discovers this and wants to try communicating with Espio through buzzing.

RECCER'S NOTES: A short and sweet moment at the Team Chaotix Detective Agency, where Charmy is his usual excitable self, Espio is an annoyed older brother who just wants peace and quiet, and Vector sleeps the whole time but his presence is still felt in spirit.

Every Thursday, we have a community post, just like this one, where you can drop a rec or five in the comments.

This works great if you only have one rec and don't want to make a whole post for it, or if you don't have a DW account, or if you're shy. ;)

(But don't forget: you can deffo make posts of your own seven days a week. ;D!)

So what cool fics/fanvids/podfics/fancrafts/fanart/other kinds of fanworks have we discovered this week? Drop it in the comments below. Anon comment is enabled.

BTW, AI fanworks are not eligible for reccing at recthething. If you aware that a fanwork is AI-generated, please do not rec it here.

Wishing everyone Merry Christmas (if you celebrate) and a Happy Thursday (if you don't.) 😉
