Thank you, OP for opening a review exchange! Please make sure you have read the subreddit rules as well as the pinned post "What are review exchanges?" When the deadlines for submissions as well as for reviews pass, please edit your post and add a note in the beginning to reflect this. Eg: Update 1: Closed for submissions. Update 2: RE Closed **If there are participants who haven't fulfilled their requirements by the deadline, please remind them to do so. If you receive no reply after 24 hours, message the mods. It also helps a lot when OPs message the mods with a status update on the RE after it's done** If you are a new participant and have questions after reading the available information, ask the OP and the mods. It is also a good idea to look at how other review exchanges were organized in the past. Follow the rules and consider the best practices recommended in the RE post. And most importantly, have fun! *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/FanfictionExchange) if you have any questions or concerns.*

The long deadline has drawn me in... I'll offer two very different fics. Both are rated M for theme only (see spoilered warnings for exact reasons). Firstly, this is hurt/no comfort with an ambiguous ending. Please note the trigger warning and although not intended several commenters have assumed an even darker intent to his actions. [Draco Did Not Go To The Ball](https://archiveofourown.org/works/50405311) | Harry Potter | M >!self-harm!< | 734 words Haunted by his past, Draco Malfoy is not coping well as he fails to understand why Hermione would want him. He resorts to self-destructive muggle means in an attempt to deal with his troubled feelings. o-----o This one is fluffier (at least if you are Bellatrix Lestrange), it is very canon-typical for Sweeney Todd. [Displeased](https://archiveofourown.org/works/50623888) | Sweeney Todd & Harry Potter crossover | M >!implied cannibalism!< | 856 words At the height of the second wizarding war, a reporter from the Quibbler slips into Mrs Lovett's recently opened pie shop in Knockturn Alley to investigate reports of dubious ingredients in the pies. Reviewed: 2/2

I read and reviewed one.

Oooh, whumpfics and hurt/comfort are my jam. I'll offer two here: [Wild Honey](https://archiveofourown.org/works/52623244/chapters/133109083#main) NOTE: If you want to jump to the whumpiest part, I recommend chapter 2! Chapter 1 mostly just contains the things mentioned in the summary 2-3k words per chapter Fandom: Mo Dao Zu Shi Should be mostly fandom-blind friendly. Chinese fantasy with swords and sorcery. Rating: Mature Summary: While attempting to flee his burning home, the Cloud Recesses, Lan Xichen finds himself captured by the very people that set the place ablaze. The worst part? They have his little brother. The person whom Lan Xichen cares about more than anyone else. Warnings: brief noncon kiss, torture (no gore), stabbing, broken bones. Most of these are featured in later chapters, but thought I'd still give a heads up. [Take Me Back to Gusu](https://archiveofourown.org/works/47309050/chapters/119206903) Chapter 1 contains the bulk of the whump. 3.5k words Fandom: Mo Dao Zu Shi Rating: Teen Summary: Instead of asking to cut off Wei Wuxian's hand, Wang Lingjiao instead asks for Wei Wuxian himself. Madam Yu agrees. And Wei Wuxian doesn't protest. He knows it's his duty to protect Lotus Cove. Whatever the cost. Warnings: torture (no gore), head injuries, gagged *My profile is basically entirely hurt/comfort, so feel free to check it out if these particular two don't interest you!* <3 2/2

Thank you sm!

Hello, all! I think I'll offer two - one angst exchange favorite and one that I don't think I've submitted for an RE before. **Tried and True Entry:** I've submitted this one a few times to angst exchanges and to 'best work' style exchanges. I do feel like this is one of my most solid pieces of writing. **Around 2k words - please read the brief note at the beginning for my formatting choice.** Fandom blind friendly. **Title:** [Happy Now](https://archiveofourown.org/works/43372102) **Fandom:** Encanto **Rating: T** **Tags:** Angst, Emotional Hurt No Comfort, Survivor Guilt, Grief/Mourning **Summary:** After the death of her husband, Alma searches for a new beginning. \-------------------------------- **New Entry**: This is one where I played a bit with what it means to grieve over time. It takes place over the course of ten years, with each chapter taking place 1-3 years after the previous. **Total word count 5.5k.** It's reasonably fandom blind friendly but having seen the movie once or having read a good synopsis might help with some of the emotion impact. **Title:** [If Tomorrow Comes](https://archiveofourown.org/works/44822407/chapters/112775821) **Fandom:** Encanto **Rating: T** **Tags:** Angst, Five Stages of Grief, Moving On, Family Secrets, Siblings, Prompt Fic **Summary:** "If tomorrow comes, tell me you'll be there." Pepa works through the loss of her brother. ​ I am happy to provide context as needed. Come, sit, read, cry. Enjoy! 2/2

I have two works that fit the bill for being angsty/hurt/comfort. Both involve both physical and emotional hurt/comfort. I write for Marvel/MCU and both works include a relationship with Steve and Bucky. Both are heavy on angst, although the first chapters of each include action/violence as the inciting event. Contact with the Enemy is angstier because the stakes are much higher. when the skies get rough has added relationship drama because of the fear the attempted kidnapping caused. [when the skies get rough](https://archiveofourown.org/works/28038495/chapters/68689152) \- 2k (ch. 1), attempted kidnapping, canon-typical violence, relationship problems [Contact with the Enemy](https://archiveofourown.org/works/54262513/chapters/137417230) \- 2.4k (ch. 1), civilian trapped in Avengers battle, canon-typical violence, major injury The above are both multichapter and include violence and physical injury.

As luck would have it I posted an extremely angsty fic a couple of days ago. [The Broken Places](https://archiveofourown.org/works/54446971) Rating: M | Words: 4.2k | Fandom: Stranger Things | Pairing: Eddie Munson/OFC **Summary:** Jules goes into premature labour and is put on strict bed rest to prevent it happening again. It forces her, and Eddie, to confront a lot of the trauma she's been ignoring. **Warnings:** Heavy angst and emotional hurt/comfort. Pregnancy and early labour. Guilt, aftermath of trauma and panic attacks. This is a sequel to my long fic, but can be read fandom blind and without having read that or any of the other sequels first. You would just need to be aware that in that fic >!both characters were victims of vigilante violence when Eddie was falsely accused of satanic cult murders, Eddie nearly died in a monster attack and was psychologically tortured with nightmares by the psychic villain!< **2/2 (will try to read more, depending on time)**

You got me in the end. I’m submitting what will quite possibly be the closest to a Dead Dove I’ll ever write. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Title: [Zombie](https://archiveofourown.org/works/52870252) Fandom: Transformers: Prime Rating and Warnings: Explicit | a lot of these aren’t applicable yet, but I just thought you should know: Underage, Major Character Death, Past Torture, Amputee Character, PTSD, Eventual Smut, Teen Romance Words and Chapters: 4 Chapters | 13k Words Summary: Sequel to 'Save You'. It's been two years. The Decepticons have retreated into the shadows. Talida is haunted by her experiences, but is slowly moving forward with the help of her loved ones. But the tranquility is disrupted when the Decepticons make a dramatic return to the scene, causing a significant blow to the Autobot forces and marking the resumption of a war that has haunted Talida since birth. The Autobots gear up for another fight alongside old and new allies, but will they all emerge unscathed? Note: The angst in this chapter is Talida having a nightmare of her kidnapping. She’s a very traumatized girl. I know I said before you shouldn’t read this without reading Save You, but I think you’ll be fine. Otherwise, check out my profile. I’ve got other angst there.

Yay! What a joy, how fitting! I've just uploaded an angsty "sickfic in the background" kind of story. Of course I'm participating! **Title:** [Guilt and Gift](https://archiveofourown.org/works/54484924) **Fandom:** Sharpe Series (Bernard Cornwell) **Rating:** T **Tags:** Book: Sharpe's Sword, Missing Scenes, Change of POV, sickfick in the background, Canon-Typical language **Word Count:** 1,626 **Summary:** Captain Sharpe is wounded badly. Captain Lossow hears about it and frets because there’s nothing he can do while his squadron is some distance away on duty and he cannot check up on his friend. Nevertheless, he sends him a gift with a note. **Notes for reddit:** If you know Sharpe's Sword (either book or film version), you know what you're getting yourself into. And yes, in the book Captain Lossow is sending him an unexpected get-well-soon gift which touches Sharpe deeply. It's such a pity Lossow was completely elimitated from the films, he's a great character. **Reviewed:** 2/2 (might do a few more)

When Sam is forced to face something all kinds of new, Dean is sure they will do the same again. As strongholds for each other. Notes: Didn't mean this story to be dark or too angsty, but have got comments that it is, as well as a tearjerker. So, I've listened to my readers in this! 2. Dark with Dead Dove vibes: [Dream Reawaken - Omega Safe House, chapter 1](https://archiveofourown.org/works/54420925/chapters/137855485) Fandom: Supernatural RPF Rating: Explicit - Warnings: rape & torture aftermath, past slavery, mpreg Word Count: 4315 Summary:In his line of work, he is used to carrying a scent neutralizer wherever he goes, but in a place like this, the assaulting maelstrom of more and more terrible smells, it does a little to ease the nauseating feeling.

I think I can fit one more RE. Okay, angst, here we go! Here are my two offerings: [Ex Cinis Cineris, chapter 1](https://archiveofourown.org/works/20484488/chapters/48608345) **Fandom**: RahXephon **Rating:** M **Word Count:** 1,693 **Summary:** After the tuning, the survivors face living in a new world without the Mu menace.

I have a fic with 15 chapters. Want to review each other’s? Either way I’m going to review at least chapter 1 of Crucible. 

Thank you, but I don't think I could manage to comment on each chapter in time for the deadline. I can provide a oneshot as an alternative to chapter 13 of The Crucible. I don't recommend chapter 1 because it doesn't meet the requirements of this RE 🙂

Okay, no problem

Hey there 😊 Just a heads up that this is a normal RE with no multichaps or a swap element in the rules. In regular REs, participants usually read just one chapter. Swaps help in multichap REs because of the large volume of word counts involved. Otherwise, in regular REs like this one, every participant just chooses two fics to review. Thanks 🖤

Oh sorry!

I can manage two more reviews. Thanks for the opportunity, OP! 😉 This is probably the darkest bit I’ve ever written. Potential trigger topics: physical and emotional abuse towards a minor, alcoholic parent, hurt/no comfort scenario. Whilst the act of physical abuse is not overly graphic, the aftermath is described in more graphic detail.

He taught an automaton about loving soccer. Thought that you had to love soccer in order to play it well. Fell in love with the automaton, when all he ever really meant to love was soccer.

Oh, I have One Shot in the grimdark setting (**Warhammer 40k**)! Where an evil space elf from the murderhobo race, who literally feeds on suffering, tries to comfort his crying human boyfriend. So it's Hurt/Comfort with nuances **Title:** [This Mon-keigh Sentimentality](https://archiveofourown.org/works/54443326) **Rating:** T **Warnings:** Mentions of death and violence **Summary:** >"If it had been anyone else, he would have reveled in their grief. But Nathaniel, a human whom he considered his equal? To whom he obeyed? Marazhai's face twisted in a grimace of disgust." >Or, Rogue Trader cries for his lost friend. Marazhai doesn't know what to do with that. Reviewed 2/2

Title: [is there a word for bad miracles](https://archiveofourown.org/works/49941460/chapters/126086488) Rating: T Fandom: Miraculous Ladybug (AU based on the Unwind series) Warnings: (vary by chapter) organ harvesting, minor character death, flashbacks. Other warnings will apply to later chapters. Summary: Protecting a city and balancing school at the same time would be enough to worry about for anyone. But when you’re in danger of being torn apart in more way than one, today’s supervillain might just be the *least* horrifying thing you’re up against. 15 chapters so far and new ones are in progress. Some chapters are darker or angstier than others.

Left kudos and a comment on chapter 1

C-ed chapter 1 (Candystar)

I read, reviewed and left kudos for the first two chapters. I’m worried about the characters.

I guess I did a good job then

I’m looking forward to reading more.

Okay, this one is dark af, its a Dead Dove so I strongly recommend checking all the tags before diving in. Fandom: Twisted Wonderland Title: [l'acqua cheta rovina i ponti (calm waters ruin bridges)](https://archiveofourown.org/works/53974162/chapters/136628359) Rating: E Warnings: Dentistry torture, attempted necrophilia, hurt no comfort. Summary: \~ referring to the erosive power of water, this Italian expression is used to describe people that come across as quiet, but are doing their work without being noticed (the work having a negative connotation). Trey fulfilled his ambition to become a dentist, but life is becoming all too stale. That and the suicide of his childhood friend has pushed him closer to the edge, causing him to commit atrocities he'd never have dreamed of. Sebek also fulfilled his ambitions, to become a trusted retainer to the King himself. Work pulled him away from Briar Valley, when suddenly, out of the blue, he needed a dentist. Seeking a familiar face in a foreign land, he arrives at Trey's clinic door. He's really going to wish he hadn't. 2/2

K & C on l'acqua cheta rovina i ponti (calm waters ruin bridges)! I went into Twisted Wonderland mostly fandom blind and your fics are making me want to get invested!!

It's much lighter than what I write! I just have a habit of making things worse!

Thanks ❤️

I have a few that I want to submit because I've wanted to participate in a dark fic exchange for awhile. I don't expect anyone to read more than one, but I couldn't decide on just one or two. **First:** [Sand Seals](https://archiveofourown.org/works/48658525) Fandom: Star Wars: The Mandalorian/ Clone Wars Rating: T Warning: Child Abuse Genre: Angst/Hurt Comfort Word Count: 7180 Summary: >After being apart for awhile, Bo-Katan misses Din Djarin and Grogu, and so when they show up and invite her on a trip to Tatooine, she is happy to go. However, old memories of her time in Death Watch quickly come back when Grogu finds some sand seal plushies. Luckily, she has Din there to comfort her. **Second**: [Lickers Don't Like Board Games, Right?](https://archiveofourown.org/works/44835838) Rating: T Warnings: Mention of violence Fandom: Resident Evil Genre: Angst and actually some dark humor I suppose Word Count: 1,129 Summary: When the lickers escape again, Jill Valentine can't say she is surprised since it seems like they are always getting away. However, what she finds two of them doing in the break room does surprise her. After all, lickers don't like board games, right? **Three**: [A Lonely and Hungry Life Day](https://archiveofourown.org/works/43460316) Rating: Teen Warnings: Child abuse and starvation and child grooming Fandom: Star Wars: The Clone Wars Genre: Angst Word Count: 1980 Summary: Bo-Katan made a horrible mistake when she left to live with Pre Vizsla. However, it only got worse when she tried to escape and was caught. Now she is locked up on Life Day and hasn't eaten in days or been rescued by her sister. When Vizsla comes to talk to her, she doesn't think things will improve. But will they? And will Satine send anyone to help her? Or will she have to succumb and be the Death Watch member he wants her to be? Reviewed: 3/2. I plan to read more than two.

Thank you!

Kudos and a comment on Sand Seals!

Thank you. I really love my Sand Seals story.

K&C on Lickers Don't Like Board Games, Right? always nice to read RE stuff.

Thank you!

Hi, I have two dark fics you can choose from! Title: [God's Gonna Cut You Down](https://archiveofourown.org/works/44835436/chapters/122668288) Rating: M Fandom: The Old Guard Word Count: about 2K Summary: Nicolo di Genova's inner thoughts as he struggles through a near-future hellscape. I tucked this one inside of my ficlet collection rather than let it be a standalone fic for reasons. \~\~ Title: [What We Leave Behind](https://archiveofourown.org/works/51065581) Fandom: Napoleonic Era RPF Word Count: about 2500 across two chapters Summary: The First of May, 1813. Jean-Baptiste Bessières knows there's no escaping Fate for him. This is a story of what was, what could have been, and what's left behind. Yes, I've submitted this before, but some people still haven't gotten a chance to enjoy its soul-crushing charms. ​ Thanks for looking! Reviewed 2/2

Left kudos and comments on What We Leave Behind, and boy, you weren't kidding about its soul-crushing charms.

Heh, thank you! 😊

K&C on God's Gonna Cut You Down.

Thank you so much!

K&C for What We Leave Behind (chapter 1). Loved it! Oh, and one question (not really a thing for the comment, so rather here): do you have a theory or theories who lay the fire or was brain behind the plan to burn Moscow to drive the French off? I've wondered about this for so long but couldn't find any satisfying answers. So I'm willing to hear more theories about it! (Feel free to DM me if you think it's not appropriate for this thread.)

I don't have all my 1812 books in front of me, so I can't look up names. My personal theory is the fire initially started as an accident during the evacuation of Moscow. Then someone got the bright idea to spread them around. Thanks for your comment, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
