Length:Medium (12,000)

Author on LJ: faorism
Website: Faorism's A03
Summary: in which Gumball finds himself, and a few other people too.
Review: This is one of the best 'real life' stories I've read in a long time. Which is really impressive coming from the Adventure Time fandom, since it takes place in a post-apocalyptic magical candy/vampire reality.
Gumball is so awesome and Faorism does a great job both taking into consideration what a pink and prim young human in our reality might experiences, and the timing involved with growing up as a teen in the early nineties.
Also awesome is the fact that she doesn't shy away from making the characters something other than traditionally attractive, while still keeping them to their original roots. Just wait till you run into LSP!
Even if you don't know much about Adventure Time, you might want to give the story a try. It's fairly self-contained. Though you might miss out on some of the fannish easter eggs.
