on the topic of 'good' fanfiction
Inspired by rebekkamaria's ... and older spunbymidnight's posts, here were the results of the Cursed Exile: Uchiha Sasuke Fanfiction Awards circa 2005 (ouch!). I can't guarantee all the links will work as I've copied this directly from the website I used to have. Whether it be the nitty gritty angsty stuff or the ridiculously fluffy and slashy -- these are still definitely still some of the best fandom reads on the net:
Category: Prodigy - Most Outstanding Overall Fanfiction If he's honest, if he looks underneath the underneath, Sasuke knows that there is no such thing as coming back.
Category: Avenger - Best All Around Characterization One night every year, Uchiha Sasuke lets himself mourn the family he lost years ago.
Category: Obsidian - Best Dark and Angsty In the end, Sasuke comes home.
Category: Best Uke!Sasuke The gang meets Kyuubi. Kyuubi is bored. Thank god Sasuke is here to distract him.
Category: Best Seme!Sasuke Naruto on love.
Category: Guilty Pleasure - Best PWP You were never more mine than you are now.
Category: Best Humor Like all good boys, Itachi writes home occasionally.
Category: Best Drama It’s said that beauty is only skin deep and that to truly know a person you have to look beneath the flesh to the soul within the casing.
Category: Shatter - Best Cryfest After 5 long years, the heir to the Uchiha clan is finally back, engaged to a certain pink-haired girl... But old emotions reawaken as the 2 rivals once again meet face to face, eye to eye... And heart to heart?
Category: Lifetime Achievement Award Bestowed on Ninjacat for her contributions to the Sasuke faction of the fandom. Because let's face it: our boy's got a rock star lifestyle of living hard, and (most regrettably) dying young.
Honorable mentions:
Damaetas by Keruri1 (OBSIDIAN)
Technicolor by Asuka Kureru (OBSIDIAN)
Laundry by Gelfling (UKE!SASUKE!)
Push and Pull by ThyLaSlain (GUILTY PLEASURE)
Plan B by Enkidu (HUMOR)
