I'm feeling unusually chatty lately...
Anyways, to counter my more serious topic, a fun and bubbly one! That's right, it's post your favorite fanfic time! Doesn't matter what fandom, post it up! Here's mine:
Fandom: X-Men: Evolution
Author: King of the Worthless
Title: Brotherhood Five: The Fugitive Nine
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4190186/1/BrotherhoodFiveTheFugitiveNine
Even though it's located in the Pit, I think it's awesome. It's like a spin-off of Evolution, focusing on the Brotherhood instead of the X-Men. Plenty of action and humor, with a good plot and good grammar--whoda thunk?
For fans of the Doctor Who audios
What Was Lost in the Eye of the Storm by moonmama
Singapore, 1941. A most unusual patient turns up at a British military hospital, with no memory of how he got there. Two planets, two wars, and countless timelines converge on one tiny pocket of reality where two lovers struggle to find their past, knowing they have no future.(Eight/Charley-quite possibly the best thing I've ever read on here.)

But I'm rather fond of this one
Fandom: X-com
Author: Hobbes
Title: X-com, The Unknown Menace

Fandom: crossover between Ranma 1/2 and Sailor Moon (yeah, I know)
Author: Fire
Title: Destiny's Child
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/26926/1/Destinys_Child
This, I think, is one of the best fukufics I've ever read, with the possible exception of one or two which are still in progress, and I'll need to see how they end to decide if they're better. Namely, Contrast Match and A Time Apart.
Sure, it has Ranma collecting entirely too much stuff, but the idea is that the events of Ranma happen well in the past, and they're entirely less... momentous, and he's been hanging around collecting things till now.
Besides, he kinda needs it to match power levels properly.
My favourite fic is usually what I read last, same as favourite game, favourite book, favourite film, favourite music. I usually have some form of Top Ten (Thousand), but it's usually what I've read last.
Disturbingly, that makes my favourite fic Agony in Pink.
...and most of them are by a small number of authors.
The Bleach Ficlet: Dare To Live and Saiyuki Serial: Beautifully Broken Evolution by LJ's Iron Dog are among my favourites. Her two-part Orgy Fics are what introduced me to her writing, and they're the best cross-fandom eight-man orgies I've ever seen written.
Another favourite writer of mine is Dracoqueen22, and her large number of Bleach fics, especially her Of Violence fic, which is the best story on the topic of spousal abuse that I have ever seen in any fandom. Dracoqueen22 is also on ffn under the same name, which I no longer frequent all that often.
Unless, of course, I'm tempted there by DelMarch. I might be biased here because she primarily writes about my two favourite characters, but she is a good writer whose work I love reading.
A Shadow of What Was is another of my favourites. It's pretty long, and not yet finished so it may take anyone who attempts it a while to read.
And, of course, there is the Poignant Pevensie Porn series, as well as the Seamus/Dumbledore fic written by our very own Pads and Trojie, that can be found on this post, below all the PPC stuff.
This one's my favourite at the moment. Nearly died laughing the first time I read it. Probably not work-safe, as it features a lot of gratuitous sex for comedy purposes:
