HARD TO PICK JUST ONE but/so i will go with the LONGEST fic i read this year which was also LIFE-CHANGING and it is.....

Root Rot! https://archiveofourown.org/works/47045674/

it's an ot8 fic and every POV is so well-done and distinct and interesting... i love the way the storylines develop and intersect over time.... the plot and pacing is perfect, the humor the angst the romance the friendship the found family... the life lessons.... it's a really beautiful and also fun story and everyone should read it today! call in sick and read it

i want to read more super long ones like this so feel free to recommend me some if anyone is reading this too! there is something so satisfying about spending time with characters for that long
