Here's my list of some of the fics that I hardcore fangirl for fangirl_tour.



Fandom: Harry Potter
Title: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Do Over
Author: va32h
Link: www.fanfiction.net/s/4072698/1/Harry_Potter_and_the_Deathly_Hallows_Do_Over
Rating: K+
Status: Complete
Summary: Fidelius? Fixed. Camping? Cut. Elder Wand? Eliminated. A rational Lupin. Hedwig lives! Slytherin redeemed! Snape doesn't die in such a lame way! The seventh book as I'd have written it. Canon ships.
Why I fangirl this: If Snape must die, let him die with dignity. If Hogwarts is attacked, let all the houses protect it. If the Golden Trio must go on an adventure, let there be a foreign hag! va32h fixed a lot of what I thought was incomplete or unsatisfying about the final book AND it's a great read.

Fandom: Harry Potter
Title: Pumblechook
Author: wartcap
Link: http://ashwinder.sycophanthex.com/viewstory.php?sid=13652
Rating: Suggestive
Status: Complete
Summary: Professor Lupin cast at the Dementor on the Hogwarts Express - and so begins the tale of Pumblechook.
Why I fangirl this: The love of Pumblechook and Myrtle is hilarious and endearing, and the SSHG action doesn't hurt either. Who would have thought the story of a Dementor would be so wonderful?

Fandom: Harry Potter
Title: The Weasel and the Kneazle
Author: Davesmom
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1048175/1/The_Weasel_and_the_Kneazle
Rating: M
Status: WIP
Summary: Ginny finally gets a pet of her own. But the little creature seems to have two personality flaws; she has a nose for trouble and seems to like Draco Malfoy.
Why I fangirl this: Davesmom is the author who made me love HP fanfiction as a teen. I returned to her stories over and over for comfort reads. Her writing will always hold a special place in my heart, and I still find her stories enthralling.

Fandom: Harry Potter
Title: Therapy Buddies
Author: Jade Okelani
Link: http://fanfiction.portkey.org/index.php?act=read&storyid=388
Rating: R
Status: Complete
Summary: Draco and Ginny visit a shrink.
Why I fangirl this: A purely physical love/hate relationship between Draco and Ginny undergoes therapy, and the result is Jade Okelani writing a lovely portrayal of their vulnerabilities. Plus hot angry sex!

Fandom: Smallville
Title: Vast
Author: amelia-kay
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/590703/1/Vast
Rating: M
Status: Complete
Summary: Chloe and Whitney deal with what it's like to be far too human in the presence of a would-be Superman and his ideal lady love.
Why I fangirl this: I explored the Smallville fandom for about a month when the show was in its first season due to my love of Lex Luthor, but this Whitney/Chloe story is the one that stays with me. The plot is well thought out, and it highlights how good they are together (and how bad Clark and Lana are for their self-esteem). The quarterback and the reporter are at their tetchy best bantering and falling in love.

Fandom: Twilight
Title: Reading Between the Lines
Author: brynna82
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4664486/1/Reading_Between_the_Lines
Rating: T
Status: Complete and ongoing
Summary: A collection of Alice/Jasper one-shots.
Why I fangirl this: Bella and Edward got their own bestselling book series, so I like reading about the other Cullens in fanfiction. brynna82 explores the relationship between Alice and Jasper in these high-quality snapshots.

Fandom: Labyrinth
Title: A Little Place of Forgetting
Author: Lee Velviet
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/943032/1/A_Little_Place_Of_Forgetting
Rating: K+
Status: Complete
Summary: Sarah and Jareth meet in the Oubliette, but it isn't called 'a little place of forgetting' for nothing.
Why I fangirl this: From one of my favorite Draco/Ginny writers, this one-shot's romantic yet creepy tone is so like the movie's tone that it could have been an outtake. Jareth and Sarah are completely in character, and it's definitely thought provoking.

Fandom: That 70's Show
Title: Season 8 Redo
Author: tanith75
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2960445/1/Season_8_Redo
Rating: T
Status: WIP but it's episodic so it ends in a satisfying place
Summary: A new, happy version of the end of Season 7 and all of Season 8. ED JH never break up. Forget about Eric and Kelso leaving. It doesn't happen here!
Why I fangirl this: Hands down, this is my official Season 8. tanith75 uses script style to make her episodes feel more authentic, and she manages to capture the humor of the show perfectly. Most importantly, Jackie and Hyde get the chance to grow into their relationship and eventually attain a happily-ever-after.

Fandom: That 70's Show
Title: Jekyll and Hyde
Author: random-flores
Link: http://www.mi-destino.net/imperfect/fiction/misc/70s_jekyllandhyde.html
Rating: PG-13
Status: Complete
Summary: The students at Point Place High knew senior year meant changes. They just weren't prepared for how many there would be.
Why I fangirl this: random-flores has high school language down pat with the gossiping, the judgments, and the interference from the popular crowd. Jackie and Hyde are marvelously in character, and I love the references to Zen. Wanna read it? Whatever. That's cool.

Fandom: Lord of the Rings
Title: Elanor's Revenge
Author: Juliediane
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1704116/1/Elanors_Revenge
Rating: M
Status: Complete
Summary: Determined to punish Haldir for toying with her sister’s affections, Elanor undertakes to teach him a lesson. Will she succeed? Or will Haldir turn the tables on her?
Why I fangirl this: This epic Haldir/OFC makes me shmoopy. You know what I mean? Tender heartaches and dreamy sighs follow in the wake of a chapter. The authors skillfully plot the romance and create a wonderful Lothlórien community.

Fandom: Gossip Girl
Title: If Only
Author: TheMusicLives
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4021298/1/If_Only
Rating: T
Status: WIP
Summary: How would things have been different if Blair had spent the night in Chuck’s suite instead of going home after their infamous limo ride? Season 1 slightly rewritten from “Seventeen Candles.” CB, TV Universe.
Why I fangirl this: Finally succumbing to GG after a year of resistance, I was instantly taken by Chuck and Blair, two total Slyths, as they schemed and maneuvered through NYC society. The show's writers enjoyed tormenting fans (me) for the longest time by keeping them apart; TheMusicLives brings them together sooner and allows them to navigate the obstacles as a couple. A very satisfying AU.

Fandom: Veronica Mars
Title: Something Like Fate
Author: carissima
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2739615/1/Something_Like_Fate
Rating: K+
Status: Complete
Summary: LoVe, AU. Lilly never had an affair with Aaron, so she didn't die, but somehow, things still work out the way they're meant to for Veronica.
Why I fangirl this: Lilly is one of my favorite VM characters despite the fact that she's been dead since before the series began, so nothing could be better than a story where she stays alive. How live!Lilly influences events are great, and the banter does Veronica Mars proud.

Fandom: Veronica Mars
Title: Broken Toys
Author: theohara
Link: http://community.livejournal.com/veronicamarsfic/248315.html
Rating: NC-17
Status: Complete
Summary: Duncan/Veronica, Lilly/Logan, Logan/Veronica, Logan/Veronica/Lilly, and quite possibly the kitchen sink. Porny, angsty, fluffy, and weird.
Why I fangirl this: What the summary says. Read this and then everything by theohara, especially the Virtual Season 2. She really gets the noir edge of the series and believably blends it with reality. This story is intense, heartbreaking, and smutty. In-character threesomes are hard to find, but everything is pitch perfect here.

Thanks to scatteredlogic for creating this community and to the other reccers for hours and hours of entertainment!
