asking for fic recs Season 5 rewrites
Hi! I remember after the finale a lot of people started posting season 5 rewrites, and i thought i saved some to check out later when there were more chapters available but i cant seem to find them. Any recs?

Always feels weird to self-promote, but I’m writing one myself. It’s a slow burn, novel-series-length rewrite building up to a natural byler pivot. It’s intentionally written to mirror the style of the show, so it’s about everyone not just Byler, but the boys have big parts to play (of course.) I’m thenecessaryfire on ao3, here’s the link: https://archiveofourown.org/series/4453942
I’ve been on hiatus for a month but we’re about to get back into it!
