Ooo, Goodfic!

I come bearing goodfic! by OpinionedAngel on 2010-07-06 01:00:00 UTC Reply

Right, I've decided that before I join in the PPC, I'm gonna try to interact more... but I tend to have trouble thinking of ways to start conversations. So I thought about it and then I realized, what do people on the Board want to see? Goodfic, of course!

The problem is, there are many fics out there, and I'm not exactly sure what everyone here likes, so how about this: you folks recommend a continuum, and I'll dig up some links... maybe.

But first, here's some to start you off:

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3735743/1/TheMomentItBegan - a good (if rather long) Harry Potter story showing how Severus Snape, when given the chance, is able to go back in time and turn his life around.

Here's some for any Gorillaz fans:
<a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2916773/1/RememberMe">http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2916773/1/RememberMe - a heart-rending take on what happened after... a certain event.
<a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3315543/1/AManOutOfTime">http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3315543/1/AManOutOfTime - an odd story giving us some very interesting concepts...

And one more...

<a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4439578/1/KaijuMoon">http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4439578/1/Kaiju_Moon - a Sailor Moon/Godzilla/Neon Genesis Evangelion crossover (no, really) that manages to be enthralling and amusing at the same time.

That's all I got for now. Hope you folks enjoy!

:D

You'll never hear me complain about that. The Harry Potter one might be interesting. Hmm, fandoms...

Well, depending on if you know them, I'm quite fond of Star Trek TNG, DS9 and Voyager, Shrek, Monty Python, most of the classic Disney films, Practical Magic, the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen... and a lot more, but that's enough for now. None of those are fandoms I often (if ever) go and read fanfic for (often for fear of what they've done to my characters), so if you know anything good for them, do let me know!

Glad you like it! by OpinionedAngel on 2010-07-06 14:14:00 UTC Reply

I don;'t know much about the other continuums, but I do know a few Disney fics that are worth reading:

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5492916/1/AbKingdombsbGenesisb (an odd, yet compelling story of a ...certain... traveller winding up in a world beyond his imagination...)
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1580546/1/bFantasiabbCrisisb- a (is finished with a sequel "Dark Storm Dawn"... but that hasn't been updated in ages.)
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3159333/1/ (I HIGHLY recommend this fic, as it is a truly epic tale)
<a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3401956/1/WelcometotheTragicKingdom">http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3401956/1/WelcometotheTragicKingdom (somewhat similar to the one right above it, but with well-written human OCs. Sadly, this one hasn't been updated for a while, either.)

And while I'm at it, how about some Kingdom Hearts fics? ...What? It's Disney-related!
<a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2903858/1/ThoseLackingSpines">http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2903858/1/ThoseLackingSpines (A HILARIOUS send-up of bad fiction that has to be read to understood.)
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3391314 (a great look at how Mickeywent from a simple deckhand... to a great king)
<a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2941935/1/ASorrowofMagpies">http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2941935/1/ASorrowofMagpies & <a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3097594/1/PastoralSymphonyinBlueMinor">http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3097594/1/PastoralSymphonyinBlueMinor (written by the same guy, these are very good, but do have considerable amounts of Purple Prose)
<a href="http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dhcjtmxn1k3rzkkfr">http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dhcjtmxn_1k3rzkkfr (Basically a fan concept of Kingdom Hearts 3 that's so good, you might wish it was a real game. Sadly, it's also lacking of certain details as well.)

Well, that's it for now. Happy reading!

Thanks :) by Sedri on 2010-07-09 01:01:00 UTC Reply

I don't know Kingdom Hearts at all, but the others look interesting; I'll have a look. Cheers :D

Also, good on you for making an effort to interact more; you've certainly made a good start. Keep going - don't be shy! (If you're not sure about how to start conversations, perhaps give your opinion about camera models up near the top of the page, or read and comment on the new missions? It doesn't have to be deep and insightful. :) )

You're welcome! by OpinionedAngel on 2010-07-11 13:38:00 UTC Reply

And even if you don't know Kingdom Hearts, I still recommend "Those Lacking Spines", as it makes fun of a variety of fan fiction concepts ranging from Crack and Darkfic to High School AUs, to yes, even the dreaded Mary Sue.

So enjoy! (And I'll see what else I can find...)
