NSFW MacDennis Darkfic Rec List

As with the other rec lists, there are some parameters. No threesomes, foursomes, or majority some pairing that’s not MacDennis. This rec list is NOT SAFE FOR WORK (NSFW.) ALL of these fics have sexual content. Some of them have characters engaging in explicit consensual rape roleplay or full on rape. There is violence, severe mental illness, drug use, and dozens of other content warnings. This fandom is generally really good about tagging so I know that these fics are well-tagged with detailed content warnings that will alert you whether you may be triggered or disturbed by the fic.

Bullet by SubwayWolf: Gun kink! Basically, Mac and Dennis get hard over the gun in Gun Fever and do the logical thing - stick the gun in Mac’s mouth.

by the time the first bombs fell we were already bored by sinnabar (fishtank): This is a series of vignettes about ‘Suburbs.’ It’s hard to describe other than it’s great and you should drop whatever you’re doing and go read it right now.

certain ways to recognize false gold by shipwrecks: So this is a ‘Dennis returns’ fic that’s structured like a Greek tragedy and it has no right to work as well as it does. This fic has some of the best prose I’ve ever read and it has sex so smoking hot you’ll need a fan. The end will keep you up at night staring at the ceiling and chewing over the lives of the characters and your own life as well. Love yourself and go read this.

a loaded god complex (cock it and pull it) by rillrill: A series of vignettes about Dennis that also incorporates the Mac and Dennis relationship into the analysis of his character. Here thar be priest kink and BDSM.

Gangster’s Paradise and Leviathan by ViciousInnocence: Basically, Gangster’s Paradise an AU where Mac is a criminal and Dennis is just some feminine dude who runs into a bit of bad luck. Mac rapes him at gunpoint in a parking garage. Leviathan follows Mac afterwards to sort of see what he’s up to (hint: murder). It’s really rare to see dark!Mac in a fic so I like that the author decided to go there. Content warning for explicit rape.

the spell that you’ve created by peskyfeelings: Okay, I know that everyone has read this one but I’m reccing it anyway because it’s so damn good. It’s just Mac and Dennis being their fucked up selves and then there’s fighting followed by porn at the end. If you somehow haven’t read it yet, go do the thing.

U + Ur Hand by ViciousInnocence: ViciousInnocence is such a gift when it comes to not being afraid to be Naughty and this is no exception. MacDennis feeding kink. Great stuff.

a beachfront of bad blood by castielanderson: I have to admit I am a sucker for fics that beat up on Dennis and you really can’t get much more hard hitting than the first half of ‘a beachfront of bad blood.’ Dennis’s journey is a trainwreck in slow motion and it’s just great stuff. The sex in here is great too and if you are into comfort stuff that element is there as well. But yeah in terms of the hurt aspect especially…...gimme ten more.

tell me that you’re alright by orphan_account: This is part of the ‘Mac and Dennis vignettes through the years’ genre. The trait that distinguishes this fic from some of the others is that the author decided to use that format to beat up Dennis for about 8000 words. Which, honestly, mood.

A Freak Like Me by entropy_can_only_increase: Mac and Dennis kink on the fact that they’re related after Family Fight. The idea makes me laugh - idk how the author came up with it but it’s great. Content warning for incest.

we were born sick by rillrill: Mac and Dennis kissing. Let’s be real - we’ve all read rillrill. You know what to expect.

I Hope You Choke and Die by radicalvodkaaunt: This is a Dennis character study which is a completely inadequate description but it’s really the only description for it. The prose in this is really gorgeous and the Dennis characterization is wonderful and the fic kind of goes in a direction you don’t expect at the end.

Feed Me by orphan_account: This is another fic kinking on fat Mac with bonus big cock and cum inflation. It has all the tasty tropes - Mac being enormous, Dennis being angry, Dennis realizing he’s ~really into this~ etc.

Hand in unlovable hand by goddammit_charlie: This is a suburbs rewrite but one that I think was written before the episode aired so maybe a suburbs. . .write? Anyway, it’s not as dark as the episode but it’s also really interesting and messed up and I like it.

Love Thy Neighbor by DulcieFlorbelle: Mac reads from the bible while railing Dennis in a church closet. That’s the whole deal. It’s fantastic.

Heat & Pain by orphan_account: MacDennis figging fic. That’s all that happens and it’s great.

gods require blood by sinnabar (fishtank): Mac and Dennis have sex. Really what makes this fic stand out isn’t any particular kink but sinnabar’s lovely prose.

Cruelty by runningwafers: Another fantastic entry into the genre of ‘Mac and Dennis fight and then fuck.’

each the other’s world entire by quixoti: Okay I know this doesn’t really need a rec because everyone and their mother has read it but if by some chance you haven’t read it, go read it right now. This is an entry into the ‘Mac and Dennis through the years’ genre and quixoti totally nails it. It’s in character, it’s hot, it’s dark, and it has lovely prose.

hell is other people by orphan_account: This is some weird AU that seems to be designed so that the author could write a choking snuff fic without killing anyone? Whatever, I’m into it. Dennis consensually chokes Mac to death in hell (and then he becomes alive again so it’s okay.)

baby, let’s transverberate by rillrill: MacDennis priest kink. Rillrill really needs no explanation - her porn is great and you should read all of it.

Glory Hole by hit_it_with_a_shoe: Mac guiltily sucks a dick through the glory hole while imagining that the man on the other side of the hole is Dennis. It’s great.

Twinkie Filling by peachwentz: An entry into the ‘Fat Mac is kinked on by angry Dennis’ genre feat. feeding kink and come sharing! Wonderful.

remember the things that make you feel by blackmountainbones: I’m a sucker for prostitute AUS so naturally this AU where Dennis is a heroin addicted prostitute and Mac is his john-turned-boyfriend is right up my alley. It’s a great fic and the ending is really dark and interesting.

Tommy Bahama Looks Bad on Everyone by peachwentz: Fat Mac is kinked on by Dennis feat. face fucking and verbal humiliation. God, this genre is so much fun. I love everyone in this bar.

best, finest surgeon by mxingno: Dennis kinks on imagining himself vivisecting Mac. This is such a niche kink and I adore it.

the shame always comes at the worst time by newbensolo: Fat Mac is kinked on by Dennis feat. daddy kink and humiliation. Awesome.

you will be the death of me by orphan_account: Genderswap MacDennis knifeplay. Another niche kink but I’ll take it!

Pretty When You Cry by entropy_can_only_increase: Okay so this is a straight up rape fic so if you’re triggered by that I highly recommend you stay away. Dennis rapes Mac and that’s pretty much it. It’s well-written so if you like dark shit then you’ll be into it!

Days are Gone by orphan_account: This is a ‘Dennis in college’ story where Mac comes to visit Dennis at college and finds out that he’s kind of a trainwreck. The porn in this is very hot and I like the story too.

Good Boy by Megalomaniacal: Good old MacDennis piss drinking kink. It’s not a fandom until you break out the watersports.

a kiss with a fist is better than none by rillrill: Poorly negotiated BDSM! Oh how I love you (in fic.) This is a rillrill fic - again, that’s really the only selling point you should need.

twelve feet deep by haemophilus: Self rec - these are some fill in the blank drabbles for ‘Suburbs’ written by yours truly.

Every Inch of His Tar Black Soul by entropy_can_only_increase: This is a super creepy and in character non-consensual somnophilia fic. Obviously, content warning for rape. If dark stuff is your thing, you’ll like this fic.

your fucking rescue dog by pinkejessman: MacDennis puppy play feat. Dennis putting a leash around Mac’s neck and Mac being subby as fuck. Awesome.

Boots by woollen_pharaohs: Mac chokes out Dennis with his heavy combat boots until he nuts. Great stuff.

Just Closer to God (You Can Call Me Your Heaven) by Blink_Blue: So if you’re a MacDennis fan and you say you haven’t read this then I’m just assuming that your eyes are shifting around because it’s so deliciously naughty and you’re ashamed that you loved it so much. Hits don’t lie, guys. This is great stuff. Just a very dark longfic about Mac and Dennis navigating their relationship with lots and lots of porn. There are some dubious consent elements including one chapter where they participate in rape kink consensually. The author marks the chapters where there might be issues so you should be good on that.

land on you (like a sucker punch) by orphan_account: Okay so basically this is an AU where Mac and Dennis never met until one day Mac mugs Dennis in an alley. Only to find out that Dennis is really weird and has been trying to get random dudes to mug and, uh, have their way with him in alleys. They end up having this sugar daddy relationship that involves alley rape roleplay? Fandom sure is weird and wonderful. Anyway, content warning for dubious consent/rape kink - the author clearly marks where stuff that may be triggering or disturbing occurs which is good.

Dumb Luck by SubwayWolf: Deepthoating feat. handcuffs. Simple and hot.

Make Daddy Proud by Megalomaniacal: MacDennis porn feat. cock and ball torture, a lace thong, paddling, and daddy kink. Impressive stuff. Read it, because you’re worth it.

Bodies Lie and Tend to Break and Get Behind Me Satan by woollen_pharaohs: If you ever wanted two novel-length fics that manage to seamlessly blend together a Fargo crossover and vampire deep lore all while being in turns both dark and hilarious then these are the fics for you. Seriously, this shit is impressive and everyone needs to read it.

way too intoxicated to breathe by haemophilus: A pre-Suburbs, post-moving in with Dee MacDennis porn by yours truly feat. resentment, anal, and choking. I dunno, I think it’s pretty good.

Newsflash Asshole by Megalomaniacal: MacDennis feat. rimming. Simple and wonderful. I mean honestly a selling point of any porn is that Megalomaniacal wrote it, them’s just the breaks.

Dennis Sucks Crackhead Blood by melonbug: A Dennis vampire fic that’s both dark and funny feat. sexy blood sucking. If that is your thing you will love this.

In the Land of Gods and Monsters, I Was an Angel by entropy_can_only_increase: Another dark!Mac fic where he rapes Dennis. Obviously, content warning for rape. If you like dark stuff, you’ll like this.

baby, let’s transverberate by rillrill: MacDennis feat. priest kink. If you’re into blasphemy fic this is definitely a fic for you. Also if you’re into any porn I mean, again. Rillrill always has your back.

Merry Fistmas by Megalomaniacal: MacDennis feat. fisting! Megalomaniacal back at it again with the good shit.

set my wings on fire by orphan_account: MacDennis feat. verbal humiliation and spanking. Wonderful stuff.

not like the old days by quixoti: I’m not sure if this road trip fic classifies as a dark fic or not but I love it so much that I’m reccing it anyway. It certainly has a lot of dark elements from references to abuse and mental illness to the fear of getting old. But it has wonderful funny moments too. The end will break your heart a little and make you happy all at once. Note that this actually isn’t NSFW but I forgot to put it on my SFW darkfic list so sorry about that.

It Only Gets Better When It Hurts by Megalomaniacal: There’s so many kinks in this that I don’t know where to begin. Basically, hardcore BDSM. Read the tags for more information - great stuff.

Rent by Microdigitalwaker: A ‘Dennis is a prostitute’ AU that is just delicious. I love these kinds of AUs and Microdigitalwaker delivers.

Tallahassee by orphan_account: This is another road trip fic, which, if I didn’t let on earlier, is one of my favorite tropes. There’s porn in this one that has a pretty dark tone and the end is kind of dark and bittersweet as well. Definitely worth a read.

Go On Believe If It Turns You On by Megalomaniacal: Dennis is a prostitute feat. delicious power play. Simple and smutty and wonderful.

You’re My Bitch (and I’m Your Bastard) by ViciousInnocence: Great MacDennis feat. piss holding and puppy play. The author tags it dubious consent to be wary of that.

Guilty Pleasure by Megalomaniacal: MacDennis feat. bondage and watersports. What a gift.

tornadoes and earthquakes by whatsupbitches (larkin): Okay this is a Dennis/Country Mac fic but it has heavy MacDennis undertones and it’s so good that I can’t not rec it. Basically, Dennis has rough sex with Country Mac

lips & the things between them by justsaybee (rednoseredhair): This is a deep throating fic that also has spit kink. Which I had never really seen before but the author does a great job with it.

Arrested Development Fanfic Recs

I’m really dreadfully behind on reading so please don’t take my word as gospel. This isn’t all the good fic out there. As a rule if I rec an author just read everything they wrote because I will totally forget to link everything I like.

Étude Op. 25, No. 2 in F minor: Gob is a concert pianist AU. It’s novel length and I’ve read all of it which really speaks to its quality as I can’t reliably read anything longer than 30k.

A Bluth Family History: Really neat through-the-decades fic. I love young Lucille so A+

When the smoke clears: High school Gob/Tony AU. The slow burn in this made me want to die in the best way.

Stupid, Stupid: ‘Michael Bluth has anxiety’ character study. GoldStarGrl really likes ripping my heart in half.

Little Less Bark, Little More Bite: Gob/Tony phone sex it’s delicious.

See you on the b side, babe: Instant classic. If you haven’t already read this go do it.

M’aidez: Lucille character study. I die every time.

One of Gob’s Better Parties: Voyeurism and hand jobs. Gob/Tony.

Sacred Geometry: Young!Gob/Michael hand jobs. I love woollen_pharaohs in any fandom and you should too if you love yourself.

Just take it off, just shed your skin: Gob/Michael porn. It has much kink, very good, yes.

Dance for You: I’m always a sucker for Gob stripping fics ok. I’m not that deep. Gob/Tony.

I Go to Extremes series: I wrote this and other people seem to like it so it’s probably alright. Bipolar Gob stuff but written pre-season 5 so. . .retro? Not canon compliant anyway. Gob/Tony.

Four Parties Gob Went To, and One He Skipped: What it says on the tin. It’s really good. Gob/Tony and Gob/OCs.

Magic, Not Drugs: Classique bipolar Gob fic.

Salutis Populi Suprema Lex: Rare Gob and Lindsey fic. I love it so much.

The Subtle Difference Between Fucking and Fucking Over: Gob/Tony dry humping in a limo. Again I’m very shallow especially because I prompted this fucking thing.

From Here On, Blind: Gob/Tony and Gob/JBJ longfic feat. confused emotions and a lot of smut. Cmere writes AMAZING smut and will show up on this list again because LOOK as we have agreed I’m not very deep.

Second Round’s On Me: Gob/Tony bang on the staircase while Michael is unconscious on the floor because cmere is too good for this world.

Rainbow High: This is a Tony character study and I love it so much.

This Thing That Is Happening To You: Gob tries to figure out how to come out to his family. Gob/Tony. Scioscribe so you know it’s da best.

This is the Backbone of America: Okay so this isn’t just one of my favorite Arrested Development fics. This isn’t just one of my favorite fanfictions. This is one of my favorite stories that I’ve ever read in my entire life. If it wouldn’t cost too much money and garner too many questions I’d tattoo this fic on my body. It’s a Steve Holt/Ann story and I wish there was a less simplistic way to describe it but there we are. Please read this story and read it now.

You’re Not a Fan of My Illusions: Gob is actually magic but it’s fickle. This fic is very sad and hurts my heart.

An Officer and a Gentleman: Stripping Gob/Tony porn again. I love. . .this a lot. Also it has unclothed frottage which is actually kind of a rare breed.

Tricks around the Office: Gob/Gary handjobs and blowjobs in the office. Very hot.

Love Each Other: Okay not to be too extra but the author, singingtomysoul, became like my actual best friend after I read it and chatted her up so that’s how good it is. It forms best friendships. Gob/Tony read it if you haven’t already.

Just Because You’re Wordless Doesn’t Mean You’re Quiet: One of those AUs where people have a limited number of words they can say per day. Gob/Michael. It’s so good.

I also write fic and stuff.

Also here’s a list of AD fic I orphaned because instead of doing normal reckless things like cocaine in my early 20s I orphaned fanfiction instead.

Feel free to comment with any other fics I missed (I know I missed a lot) or to yell at me for not reccing yours.

SFW MacDennis Darkfic Rec List

Ye asked and ye shall recieve. As with the other rec lists, there are some parameters. No threesomes, foursomes, or majority some pairing that’s not MacDennis. This rec list is safe for work meaning that, in my opinion, you could read this in a coffee shop without worrying people are watching you get hot and bothered or deeply disturbed by the sexual content. Because this is a MacDennis darkfic list, I’m issuing a blanket warning for violence, severe mental illness (and all that entails), internalized homophobia, and, of course, mentions of rape. This fandom is generally really good about tagging so I know that these fics are well-tagged with detailed content warnings that will alert you whether you may be triggered or disturbed by the fic.

without it life is a wasted time by singingtomysoul: The premise of this is that Dennis comes home from a date super pissed off and in a murdery mood and Mac tries to stop him from leaving the house by tackling him to the ground. It’s creepy and wonderful.

cultverse by brandyalexanders: Okay so this is basically an AU where Dennis is the leader of one of those 70s free love cults and Mac and Charlie are his disciples. Over the course of the fic, you start to get a growing sense of discomfort as you (and Mac + Charlie) start to realize the cult is messed up. It’s unfinished but don’t let that deter you - it absolutely works just as it is and it’s really worth a read.

Man Shall Not Live By Bread Alone by peskyfeelings: A character study of Dennis’s eating disorder that doesn’t pull any punches regarding the portrayal of how awful he is but also does make you feel kinda bad for him.

if we weren’t such good friends i’d wish you were dead by rillrill: This one is a character study/series of vignettes that is centered around Dennis scratching Mac in ‘Charlie Work’ but is also an exploration of their past. I like that it goes into detail about Mac’s past here and I like both of their internal monologues a lot.

swear to god the devil made me do it by orphan_account: Just two short fics that are kinda dark moments in the lives of Mac and Dennis. The first one is an argument and the second one is a discussion after sex. Simple fics but I like em.

the way it was by porterville: A related fic to the one above. Just a discussion between Mac and Dee about how Mac is struggling to handle Dennis’s treatment of him in season 10. I like that this one is from Dee’s perspective. Mixes things up a bit.

Pedal to the Metal by porterville: Dennis steals Dee’s first car, picks up Mac and Charlie, takes it on a joyride, and crashes it. Dennis’s internal monologue is honestly terrifying and the fic hits hard.

i’m not sorry, just unsound by singingtomysoul: An aftermath of Family Fight fic. Basically, Dennis becomes obsessed with how he lost and Charlie and Mac have to figure out how to make him snap out of it. Great character work in this one.

you bring me down (hey I’m not listening) by orphan_account: Post ‘Suburbs’ fic. Dennis, angry that Mac is pretending his fucked up behavior in the suburbs didn’t happen, thinks the answer to overcoming that repression is to goad Mac into hurting him. Strange idea but worth a read.

Synchronicity by Blink_Blue: A Dennis returns fic that takes a dark turn. This fic will lull you into a false sense of security before punching you in the gut. Massive content warning for discussion of and reaction to offscreen rape and trauma.

I Feel So Proud When the Reckoning Arrives and its sequel I Taste Jasmine On My Tongue by orphan_account: This fic takes Dennis’s delusion that he’s God during ‘Charlie Rules the World’ and twists it into something very dark by interpreting it as the beginning of a manic episode. Mac indulges his insane proselytizing and pretty soon it spirals out of control in ways you might not expect.

SOMEONE WANTS TO CUT A HOLE IN YOU AND FUCK YOU THROUGH IT, BUDDY by blairkitsch: Dennis is a serial killer. The MacDennis relationship in this fic is really interesting - you’ll think it’s going in one direction and then it swerves into another. I also really enjoy Dennis’s characterization. Massive content warning for violence.

objects in motion by sinnabar (fishtank): An analysis of the Mac and Dennis relationship from the perspective of Dee in season 11. Ridiculously good - I love sinnabar’s prose.

The Talented Dennis Reynolds by DollBones: This is a 16K Dennis character study and it’s great. The MacDennis relationship weaves in and out of it in really interesting ways. I love DollBones’s characterization of Dennis a lot.

If you need a breather after reading all this stuff, feel free to read my chapter from EVERY MACDENNIS FIC EVER entitled ‘The One Where Dennis is a Tragic Figure.’

Tune in next time for the NSFW version of this which will be longer as this fandom loves pornography.

CharDee Rec List

You asked for CharDee recs and I shall deliver. A preface to this that super super gooey fluff isn’t necessarily bad (in truth, I don’t know the quality of the super gooey CharDee fics because I don’t click on many of them) but it’s not my cup of tea so some of my recs may be a bit more off the beaten path! However, I am happy to rec what I like.

As with the other rec lists, there are some exclusion criteria. None of these fics are majority MacDennis, DeeDennis, or any sort of threesome or foursome. A few of them do have MacDennis as a VERY minor side pairing, but if the fic was > 50% MacDennis it was excluded.

Charlie Bangs Sweet Dee by yuffiehighwind: Exactly what it says on the tin. A classic if you’re looking for really hot straightforward CharDee smut.

Without Losers, Where Would the Winners Be? by Marks: A Charlie and Dee fic about how they were friends in high school. I really like the characterization in this fic - the idea that they’re two messed-up misfits that found each other when they were young just works. It’s also a nice change-up from Mac and Dennis meeting being the way that the whole gang got together. Plus, I like that young!Dee gets to have a friend!

Sexual Cannibalism by dacmennis: This one is Naughty. Basically, Charlie and Dee have sex during ‘Manhunters’ and satisfy The Hunger by taking big bites of each other.

You Should See What My Friends Do by yuffiehighwind: A morning-after fic that’s in character in its depravity but sweet too.

Charlie and Dee Become Jewel Thieves by yuffiehighwind: A gen-ish fic that’s just really fun. Romance and sex can be great but I love seeing what plots people come up with when they want to try something else.

Don’t Know When, But by hrtbnr: This is a tasty treat from one of my favorite genres - the gang in their early 20s. It’s just Dee and Charlie having a chat when the gang comes over to hang out and I like it.

Prom Night by WeirdItalianPlumber: This is another high school one. Charlie and Dee hang out on prom night. I love the characterization in this. It’s sweet but they’re also little trash bags together and I’m love it.

4:27 AM, February 15th by dear_monday: Charlie shows up on Dee’s doorstep drunk out of his mind after ‘Tends Bar.’ I love the character interactions in this one. It’s a very simple fic but it knows what it is and it knows how to be itself perfectly.

We’re Throwing Off Sparks by WeirdItalianPlumber: CharDee angry sex. It’s so hot!!! I love it.

amateur by golden_goose: This fic is so interesting. Basically, ambiguously-asexual Charlie learned a lot about sex from Dennis’s creepy sex tapes and has a really weird and completely fucked up idea of what sex is. Dee sort of helps him along in the encounter when he’s really skittish about having sex. It ends with some really interesting confused feelings between the two as Charlie realizes he’s still not sure he liked it. Quality stuff.

What, Like It’s Hard by GoldStarGrl: I’m not going to have to sell this on hardcore CharDee stans because you’ve all read it but for the uninitiated - it’s a Legally Blonde AU and it’s 10000x better than it has any right to be. There’s some background MacDennis but it’s primarily CharDee with some delightful Charlie and Mac interaction. Trust me, it’s great.

Let’s Trash Our Whole Afternoon by dear_monday: It’s kind of hard to explain this fic but basically this takes place in a magic world of dear_monday’s own creation and the fic involves CharDee and tarot cards. To get the full effect you should read Magic Like What’s In the Movies first (one of my favorite fics in the entire fandom - I’m kinkshaming all of you for not making it more popular) but you don’t have to. Delightfully strange, in character, and moving. I love it.

Chick Lit by SubwayWolf: Awkward failbot phone sex. I love this fic - it really makes me laugh.

I'm Terrified Something's Gonna Happen (even though I know it will) by actualbabe: This is a bipolar Charlie character study that basically sticks you in a point in time and takes you along for the ride with his racing thoughts. It’s really interesting and unique.

Dee and Charlie Go to a Club by WeirdItalianPlumber: Dee and Charlie go to a club and have sex in the bathroom. Very hot A+.

Figure It Out by rissalf and SilentSinger: This is a long CharDee WIP with just wonderful character work and plenty of smut to go around. Content warning for stalking in one chapter. The authors clearly label where it is because they are awesome.

Sweet Denial by AnthraxValentines: CharDee orgasm denial with a buzzing cockring. Holy shit, so fucking hot. If you aren’t sweating by the section where they’re out to dinner in public I don’t even know what to say.

CharDennis Rec List

Oh CharDennis, how I love thee. Just like the CharlieMac rec list, there’s no threesome fic here. Reclists with threesome (or moresome) fic will come in time!

Illegitimi Non Carborundum by GoldStarGrl: Charlie and Dennis get high and bond over how they’ve both had shitty stuff happen to them and how their brains are both kinda weird. A simple concept and executed really beautifully.

Mac’s Banging the Waitress by ceralynn: This one takes Dennis and Charlie hiding on top of Charlie’s bed in ‘Mac’s Banging the Waitress’ and adds a layer of humping into the mix. Very entertaining and pretty hot.

Bitten by chwheeler: So basically this is after ‘Stranded in the Woods’ when Charlie and Dennis are in the airplane. Dennis tries to convince Charlie to give him hickeys. Charlie feels so pressured that he ends up biting Dennis violently out of anger. . .basically exactly the way Dennis wanted. There’s an element of sexual coercion here so proceed with caution.

Mutt by AcidicMusings: Puppy play CharDennis. The Dennis characterization in this one is just delightful. This isn’t usually my kink but I love how the author portrays it - it really works for the CharDennis dynamic.

The word of the day by howlinglight: Charlie and Dennis are in an Atlantic City hotel room, and they give each other hickeys. I enjoy howlinglight’s prose a lot and the portrayal of the characters (and their neck kissing) is really fun too.

oh, and I’m your boy by gayrichmac: The daddy kink fic CharDennis deserves.

we’ll call it dignified by PsycheDalia: Charlie says he’s not attracted to Dennis. So, Dennis and Charlie go to the back room, Dennis does a strip tease, jerks Charlie off, and teases him until Charlie nuts. It’s amazing.

got drunk on you and now i’m wasted by PsycheDalia: During ‘Boggs,’ Charlie and Dennis hide out in the back of the airplane. They end up dry humping. Wonderful.

we are vain and we are blind by PsycheDalia: Charlie and Dennis dry hump in front of Chase Utley. Again, wonderful.

Chemical Smile by rissalf: Dennis jerking off to the idea of nutting in Charlie’s face. I will admit this fic hits me right in the id.

light headed by mediarahan: Charlie and Dennis dancing and flirting in the back office. Great stuff.

Bonnie/Mrs Mac Rec List

It’s unfortunate that there are so few fics for Bonnie/Mrs. Mac, and that even more of those fics just make these characters side characters in juggernaut fics. HOWEVER there are some that fit the bill and I am more than happy to rec them.

Still by Neurofancier: This fic deals with the before and after of the funeral in Mac and Charlie Die. Something really unique about this fic is that Mrs. Mac doesn’t talk until one line at the end that really, really hits home. There’s a sense that the whole world is moving around her that starts the minute the fic opens with a jarring phone call that’s just blank dialogue and morphs into a scene where still, she’s quiet. Absolutely beautiful.

The Burning House by woollen_pharaohs: Okay so warning that this drabble is a very dark and sort of magical realism look at their relationship. But it’s really good because woollen_pharaohs is amazing. Content warning for violence, mentions of murder, and arson.

Looking Like You Just Woke Up by haemophilus: This is a series of vignettes I wrote and I don’t like complimenting my own stuff so I’ll leave you with a comment and you can decide if you like it. “i love the way you wrote mrs mac's voice!! that's something that seems like it be really hard to do but your approach was excellent. the pacing and the way you worked with/around events in canon were also really great!! and i loved all the dialogue and the events you chose etc.... this was so good” - driedflowers

CharlieMac Rec List

Okay so these fics are the Charlie/Mac fics I like. There are more Charlie & Mac gen fics as well as Charlie/Mac/Dennis fics that I enjoy but for simplicity I just narrowed it down to Charlie/Mac (and one Charlie/Country Mac - it’s just too good to leave out). There’s also a few fics with background pairings - Mac/Dennis, Dee/Dennis primarily - that I excluded to zone in on the CharlieMac goodness. Hope you enjoy!!! Feel free to add onto the list if anyone has any other recs. I am but one person and though I have read many fics, I have not read them all.

Every Day Is Like by wintercoat: This is an entry into one of my favorite genres - Charlie and Mac just fucking around Philly. The fic is so in character and the mood to it is just. . .absolutely gorgeous. I love the Charlie perspective and the playfulness but also furtiveness of it all. The sex is definitely on the ‘M’ side rather than the ‘E’ side.

Mac and Charlie Get Unstuck by AnthraxValentines: A smutty extension of Mac and Charlie: White Trash. The Mac in this one has my heart and the smut is hot.

Drop Those Pants by Megalomaniacal: An extension of the anus smuggling scene in Dennis and Dee Get a New Dad feat. rimming which is just so much fun. Megalomaniacal writes great porn in general and this is no exception.

Chimichanga by thelilnan: This is one of those smutty fat Mac feeding fics. If you are into that sort of thing, you’ll really like it. I think it’s an entertaining read regardless - thelilnan has nice prose and the character interaction is fun.

Echo Zones by woollen_pharaohs: Okay so this is technically a Charlie/Country Mac fic but there’s MAJOR CharlieMac subtext and I guarantee this thing will give you all of the feelings. The descriptions of the setting in this fic really make it - they’re so evocative and you really feel like you’re there. Read it and then read it again.

anything but temptation by clymenestras: This is another entry into the genre of Charlie and Mac fucking around Philly. I love clymenestras’s prose to pieces. Not smutty but worth a read.

Just Ask by pringlesaremydivision: A simple premise: Mac glimpsed Charlie’s dick one (1) time at the gym when they were younger, saw he was hung, and now well into his adult years has not stopped thinking about the D. Obviously, they bang.

The Came Out Swinging series by sohapppily: I love this entire series but holy cow is Blow Off a Piece of This City just the best. Basically, just Mac and Charlie fucking around when they were younger - my exact cup of tea. No smut but worth a read!

The Lost Art of Keeping a Secret by silentsinger: Mac describes a sexy dream he had about Charlie in a confessional with Rickety Cricket. Very original and hot!

It’s Okay to Cry by ShiversTheNinja: Smutty feelsy CharlieMac! This fic is so great and hot. Content warning that this one is high school. The author says that Mac and Charlie are eighteen but I know with high school fics the high school part can be a dealbreaker anyway.

let’s try to not squander this by jim_morrisenpai: This fic is honestly what post s12 CharlieMac fans deserve. It answers the question of what their dynamic will be when Dennis is gone! I swear I was waiting around for that until jim_morrisenpai showed up on my doorstep and delivered. No smut but a good read.

Take This Hand And Show My Fingers Where My Heart Is by sheepcleanser: Post Mac and Charlie Die fic that has some Mature level smut. I really like it.
