Working on my fanfic article for Talking Writing...

... and I would very much appreciate it if you could comment with a link to your favorite work of fanfic ever.

Doesn't matter what the subject is/what type it is/what it is about.

My original idea to write about the craft of it has turned into me writing about my personal relationship with it... based mostly on seeing the other pieces for the

It is HARD to choose. I'll think about it.

Of course, the right answer is "my fic" because I am awesome. yo.

[ewlyn]

Ha. Yes you are.

Or a couple fics. The ones you keep going back to, you know what I mean?

Harry Potter Fandom

The Shadow of His Wings, Harry/Draco, abandoned WIP last updated in 2007. Why would I include a WIP on this list? Because even unfinished it's one of the best fics I've ever read. It KILLS me this hasn't been finished. Bonus: Has an outtake that is Remus/Weasley Twins which is shockingly hot and believable.

Cambiare Podentes: Invocare, Harry/Snape, underaged slave fic. Yes, I know how that sounds, but this is a brilliant fic started by one author but remixed and completed by Jordan Grant. I can't tell you how many times I've read this fic. The second novel, Cambiare Podentes: Mardure is good, though not as stellar as the first novel. But if you read Invocare, you have to read Mardure, because you really need the (thank you Paul Harvey) rest of the story.

SPN

The Last Outpost Of All That Is, Sam/Dean, apocafic. Not just one of the best fanfics ever, one of the best things I've ever read period. I hold my breath every time I read it.

[ewlyn]

That SPN one is one of my favorite fics of all time.

Thanks darling! ♥

...okay...I won't bother with J2 fandom, so have a couple of Inception and H50 links!

Inception Fic: we were once cinema gods in the night Eames is an actor, it amuses me.

H50 - To the Shore Steve and Mary own a surf shop ♥

Jon's Bookstore okay, this is actually a bandom fic, but I absolutely adore it. Idk what it'd be like to read it now, since I read it approximately forever ago, but it was pretty damn amazing.

I need to add two more and then I'm done:

HP
A Soft Spot for Lost Causes, Ron/Draco--Draco is damaged, having been used as a sex slave by the Deatheaters. Ron helps him recover. Gloriously H/C. This fic lured me into HP fandom, and my OTP has been Ron/Draco ever since.

J2
Your Brains Are No Match For My Tractorbeam, Jensen/Jared--This fic not only lured me into J2, it also introduced me to the Big Bang Theory.
