Destiny Trio | Organization XIII | Everybody Else


Destiny Trio

Title: Of Mice and Men
Author: harukami
Notes: The best fic for the best KH pairing ever. Already recced on my lj, fabulous enough to be put here too.

Title: The Problems With Divine Interference Part One and Part Two
Author: reversedhymnal
Summary: Nothing ever goes according to plan.
Notes: Hilarious adorable OT3-y adventure, replete with Greek mythology and win.

Title: A Covenant with a Star
Author: DigitalTart
Summary: Ansem wasn't the only wizard to have dabbled in the magic of the heart. Sora x Riku x Kairi.
Notes: Solidly crafted, a sort of fusion/crossover (KH makes these categories very weird indeed) with Howl's Moving Castle.

Title: Unusual Talent
Author: sister_coyote
Summary: The dark powers have some... particularly interesting applications. NC-17.
Notes: It's fluffy adorable threesome tentacle smut. How can you not love it?

Title: Fly On
Author: syvia
Summary: Time frame- a handful of months after KH2. It should have been a simple trip from the Islands to Hollow Bastion. Random meteor showers ruin everyone’s day.
Notes: Cute and fun and a bit smutty.

Title: A Wish Your Heart Makes
Author: Suppi-chan
Summary: RikuSoraKairi, for 31 Days 'dinner for three'. The funny thing is that he's happier now than he ever remembers being.
Notes: Lovely and aching.

Title: Believe in the Kingdom Come
Author: Tenshi no Korin
Summary: Sora still hasn't found what he's looking for.
Notes: Lovely piece about Sora and Leon, mid-KHII.

Title: Siege
Author: Tabitha
Summary: The Princesses of Heart stretch their legs. Sort of.
Notes: It's just under 600 words, and completely delicious.

Title: she comes to make war
Author: nekokoban
Summary: Kairi knows she could've let someone else fight her battles; she chooses not to.
Notes: Short and lovely.

Title: The Creeps
Author: kunoichi_life
Notes: This is one of those rare fics where a summary would actually ruin it. Sora-centric.

Title: What Remains
Author: Amet
Summary: They are what's left of Sora.
Notes: What happens in the in-between of Sora losing his heart and having it restored. Just gorgeous.

Title: Make the Grade
Author: nekokoban
Summary: In which Sora is no good at math, and Roxas tries to be the Voice of Reason. To an extent.
Notes: It's cute and short and adorable and funny. What more could you want?

Title: Proxy
Author: caseyvalhala
Summary: Mostly a character experiment. Roxas figures it would have been easier if he'd just stayed lazing about in Sora's subconscious. Coming to the surface complicated everything.
Notes: Just gorgeous, especially in the details.

Title: The Best Imitation
Author: moonsheen
Summary: What is there to do after you've saved reality as you know it twice in a row? ...join a school play, obviously. Sora has an adventure of a different sort.
Notes: Keyboard-mashingly funny and adorable.

Title: Chasing Starlight
Author: Rissa
Summary: Being back home isn't quite the homecoming Sora always imagined, and it seems Riku's of the same mindset when a thunderstorm brings an unexpected visitor to his bedroom window.
Notes: The boys being themselves. Lovely with understated slashiness.

Title: Anti Fic (Working Title)
Author: Knowing Shadows
Notes: A gorgeous post-KHII fic, prettily slashy, and, well... look at the title.

Title: Impression
Author: harukami
Summary: Riku/Riku Replica, Namine.
Notes: Quiet and gorgeous.

Title: The Road to Dawn
Author: Ariana Aislinn
Summary: A new journey, with an unknown destination...Riku sets out to seek his destiny, accompanied by King Mickey. Meanwhile, others begin their own journeys, along winding paths that may, eventually, meet... An AU tale branching off from Chain of Memories.
Notes: Very interesting story. Takes a little while to get moving, but stick with it - it's lots of fun.

Title: Another Day in Paradise
Author: Rem-chan
Summary: The battle is over and life can at last go on. But life has a way of never being simple, even over the simplest of things, and not all battles are fought away from home. Life after the fact, KHII spoilers.
Notes: Nicely realistic, very well-written and it's multichaptered. This is a good thing. A very good thing.

Title: A Match Made In Hell
Author: Ri2
Summary: The Keybearers have been forcefully invited to the event of the year: Maleficent's wedding. Yes, you heard me. And you'll NEVER believe who the groom is...
Notes: This is a crackfic. It's an epic kind of crackfic. It... kind of defies description, actually, but is very funny and involves loads of Disney characters - including all of the ones that didn't make it into the games.

Title: What Comes After
Author: Mr. Garbanzo
Summary: Ten years after the defeat of Xemnas, a new threat to the worlds is building... a threat not from the Darkness, but from the Light. Continuation of 'The Thoughts of Zexion,' so you should probably read that first.
Notes: This is good fanfic in the epic sense of things. Its prequel does most of the worldbuilding for the fic, so definitely read it - it's well worth your time.


Organization XIII

Title: Those Lacking Spines
Author: Gexegee of Organization VI
Summary: Immune to a suspicious parasite by merit of their manly looks, Xaldin, Vexen and Lexaeus set out on a journey to save the rest of Organization XIII from the biggest nightmare of all: stupid fanfiction. Slight spoilers for KH2.
Notes: Snarky, snarky satire.

Title: Finding His Footing
Author: Alena
Summary: Demyx is new, and out of sorts.
Notes: This is friggin hilarious.

Title: XIII Drabbles for Friday the 13th
Author: Schala-Kitty
Notes: Ranging from the creeptastic to the hysterically funny to the adorable.

Title: A Sorrow of Magpies
Author: Luc Court
Summary: Every Organization has to start somewhere. A look at the Nobodies and how they learn the rules of an existence they never expected.
Notes: Slow and rich and moody.

Title: The Plotbunny of Doom: The Renegades
Authors: abby_sarajane, chigrima, and silvestris
Summary: Too caught up in their internal power-struggles, they never realized the number or might of their converging enemies until it was too late. Down came the Castle and just barely they escaped with their lives. As they recognized the full width of the disaster caused by their arrogance and carelessness, they knew from now on former enemies and allies alike would thirst for their punishment. In short, they screwed up. And so they ran.
Notes: A massive, now-complete multi-authored fic featuring the not-as-dead-as-they-used-to-be Castle Oblivion gang, with all of the tension, bitchfighting, and awesomesauce that goes along with them.

Title: There Wasn't
Author: Tabitha Dornoc
Summary: Some small part in his mind told him it should have been harder, really, to capture the heralded hero of the keyblade... Axel gets Roxas back the good old fashioned way.
Notes: Amazingly brilliant and disturbing.

Title: Waiting
Author: A Spot of Bother
Summary: They promised to meet in the next life but they have to find each other first.
Notes: It's got confusion and romance and lots of Axel/Roxas, and in the hands of a less skilled writer, it wouldn't be nearly as much fun as it is.

Title: The Violet Room
Author: Sarehptar
Summary: While working a psychology internship, Myde is given the challenge of analyzing Ienzo, a mysterious patient who spends his days writing on the walls of his hospital room. But when the story of 'Zexion' and 'Demyx' starts to sound familiar...
Notes: A WIP that's laying itself out in intriguing ways.


Everybody Else

Title: To Rise After Falling
Author: syvia
Summary: Everyone knows what happened to Sora and Riku. What happened to those who gave them a helping hand during their quests? What were they up to while the Keyblade Bearers crossed worlds and fought Heartless?
Notes: A lovely fleshing-out of the background setting and characters.

Title: Under the Sea
Author: de_yaten
Summary: It was all just a big misunderstanding. A big, wet, scaley misunderstanding.
Notes: Hilarious and adorable Ariel/Eric. Emphasis on the hilarious.

Title: If At First You Don't Succeed...
Author: pengiesama
Summary: In which Ansem the Wise proves to be otherwise.
Notes: We approve of hysterically funny crack!

Title: Radiant Garden AU
Authors: syvia and osmandias
Summary: Kairi's grandmother passes away while she's still a very young girl, and her care falls to King Ansem and his six apprentices. This event causes several changes in each of their lives- among them, an end to experiments better left undone.
Notes: Lengthy, well-written, in turns hilarious and adorable.

Title: The Mouse Who Would Be King
Author: Lynx of Organization VI
Summary: The story of how Mickey Mouse became king of Disney Castle is not the fairy tale it may first seem.
Notes: This is just wonderful, and incorporates loads of stuff from the old Mickey cartoons.

Title: Knight of Flowers
Author: Zachere
Notes: It's the fandom's only Goofy/Aerith pairing, and it's absolutely beautiful.

Title: Kodak Moment and Night Garden
Author: Isabeau
Notes: Queen Minnie and Riku. Could use a beta for little grammar things, but these (and the other dabbles posted with Kodak Moment) are just lovely.

Title: Killer Instinct
Author: Chibi Nataku
Summary: [PreKingdom Hearts] Born from alternative means, the relationship between Cloud and Sephiroth starts as last members of their race. They were meant to rule the planets, but something gets in the way and creates a severe rift between them.
Notes: Nifty, but not for the weak-of-stomach. Also could use a beta, but the occasional misspelling and miswording are easy to overlook.

Title: Aftershocks
Author: Razrantha
Summary: KH1 Postgame. Leon and co. find themselves in Hollow Bastion trying to pick up the pieces in a town that's lost nine years. Plotty, with yaoi undertones. Pairings are a slow burn.
Notes: Vaguely AU, but absolutely lovely.

Title: Tamatebako
Author: Karasu Kurokiba
Summary: Yuffie and Vincent, on begonias, becoming gelatin, the secret rum room beneath Cid's garage, and the color orange. Oh, and the sword in Yuffie's stomach. That too. [oneshot]
Notes: Lovely and painful. Assumes a FF background for the KH characters.

Title: But That Was In Another Country
Author: Guardian1
Summary: Sometimes the good guys don't win against unstoppable odds. Yuffie Kisaragi and the last stand: before Traverse Town, there was the Planet, and before Sora, there was AVALANCHE.
Notes: Crosslisted in the Final Fantasy VII section. Lovely and tragic and gorgeous.

Title: Accordance and Kingdom Darkness
Author: Hane
Summary: Keyblade Master = Prophesied Savior of the Universe. Unfortunately, he’s also a fourteen year old boy. What the game and the manga left out. Warnings: language, containing semi-spoilers for KH2 in later chapters, massively effed up timeline. Eventual yaoi (multiple pairings), vague crossovers with obscure novels by Gabriel King.
Notes: These loosely-interconnected fics are fucking fantastic. They are also incomplete, which is a fucking tragedy.

Accordance V
