Fan Fiction II: Great story! Where's the sequel?

This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I read all of Astolat’s Witcher fic without ever playing the game or reading the books, before the Netflix series came out. [link] There’s 10 of them, mostly long. They’re a big part of why I watched the show.

Oh, Parker, I have a bunch of Goblin Emperor stuff. Hang on-- Well, I thought I did, but apparently I didn't bookmark them? Bad fan. Well, here's one anyway: [link]

It's a WIP but it's charming. Maia runs away from Setheris when he's 16 and becomes a courier. Really great world-building. I'll see what else I can find--I think Victoria P. does some good recs.

Oh, and here's a widely-recced one, The Winter Emperor, in which Maia is abducted and hidden away, and Csevet comes to find him: [link]

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

Yay! Thank you!

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

OK, I've finally watched Good Omens, and !!!!!! I'm full of love and heart eyes and Crowley/Aziraphale squee. I haven't read much fanfic in years, so I'm all out of touch with who the best authors are, but I needs it, precious. Who has some good recs I can mainline??

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I'm not really in the fandom, but I love This Fic, whose full title I never remember, and always just refer to as "Tri-Phasic" in my brain so very, very much.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

That's the big early fandom hit.

Are you looking for slash or no?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

If you want filthy dirty hot excellent Good Omens slash, anything by Laura Shapiro.

This is my favorite Good Omens AU ever ever ever: Slow Show.

And this one is screamingly funny because of the whole online forum thing: The Official Mr. Fell Quarantine Thread.
