Strider's Edge by Paratactician (M)
Fandom: HOMESTUCK
Pairing: John/Rose, John/Vriska, John/Dave, Dave/Terezi, Sollux/Aradia
Length: 67k
Author on LJ: n/a
Author Website: On AO3 / On Tumblr
Why this must be read: Strider’s Edge is a worldfusion that takes the beta kids and trolls and slots them perfectly into Oxford University. It’s pitch-perfect on tone, characterization, world-building, drama, and destroying your heart.
By noon on my first Saturday in Oxford, I had achieved two things of note. I had entirely failed to become an official member in full standing of the University; and I had got drunk with David Lalonde. The first of these was, as it turned out, to have absolutely no repercussions whatsoever. The second would be of much greater import in the long term.
