| Author | Name | Game | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ixx | FF7 - The Sentry Objective 2 3 | FF7 | (Weiila)A story centering around a man named Zymon, hunted by Shinra, living in the Midgar slums selling materia and giving information to Avalance. Not the best pick of career, but what to do in the world of Final Fantasy VII? There's some harsh language, so younger readers should skip this one. Everyone else, enjoy! |
| James L. Aevermann | Time Screwed Fanfic | Misc | (Weiila)A crossover starring characters from Final Fantasy 7, 8, Tactics and Chrono Cross. One seldom sees even a somewhat serious crossover, but they tend to be good, and this one is promising if incomplete for the moment. With both humor and serious matters, as the heroes find themselves trapped in a strange world none of them really recognize (though it does seem a little familiar...). |
| Jenova's Witness | Join the Lifestream | FF7 | (Weiila)The flower girl in the pink dress from Final Fantasy 7 looses her consciousness and takes her first steps in the world beyond, to be greeted by a somewhat surprising entity. There's no revolutionary plot in this fic, but it's a very interesting talk between Aeris and the power. |
| J2/18/2006eremy Chapter | Pupu's Saga | FF8 | (Mazrim) An extremely long, almost novel like Fanfic in the world of Final Fantasy 8, after the game's end. Every character is explored fully, and Pupu's Saga has a gripping plot, well-developed characters, an exceptional understanding of the Final Fantasy 8 world, as well as his own brand of quite hilarious humor. A must read! |
| Joker Loire of the Turks | Machine Gun And White Flowers | FF8 | (Weiila)A prelude to FFVIII, starring Raine and Laguna. The tale about how the bumbling moron with the world's biggest heart and the collected barowner met and fell in love. Very sweet for being one of Joker's creations, thumbs up for that too! |
| Joker Loire of the Turks | Meteora | FF8 | (Weiila)What's an "albumfic", then? Well, you've got one right here! It's liek a songfic, 'cept its a very long fic and each chapter has a song from an album. I might be wrong about this, but since I've never seen one of these before this might be the first fic of its kind :) Rinoa and Squall's relationship will go up and down while Linkin Park plays their songs and the other heroes try to help out in various ways. |
| Joker Loire of the Turks |
Penultimate Force Prologue 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 Epilogue | FF8 | (Weiila)Another FF8 fic by Joker, and in this one something I've never seen done before is introduced; the Church of Hyne and it's servants, with confession booths and holy writings. Rinoa has disappeared, leaving only a letter of explanation - containing a few strange phrases - behind. By this, Squall has been so depressed that the rest of the gang, especially Quisis, have been forced to fight like animals to keep him alive. But just in time for his careful steps back to reality, strange things begin to happen. Garden accepts a couple of questionable murder assignments and a new meaning is given to one of Ultimecia's riddles. It seems like forces above nature are at work. |
| Joker Loire of the Turks | Private I | FF8 | (Weiila)Selphie's lucky socks are stolen, and Irvine takes up the case in pure, paranoid, over-analysing and suspicious Dick Tracy rip-off style. Say your last prayers, Balamb Garden... especially with an old fashioned Pink Panther/Inspector Clouseau assassin on the loose as well. |
| Joker Loire of the Turks | Retaliation 1 2 3 4 5 Epilogue | FF8 | (Weiila)Dark beyond belief about Squall, who after the tragic death of Rinoa that he believes he himself caused is running through the underworld of humanity in a wild hunt for the truth. He's aided by mysterious phonecalls, but the informants are secretive and he has no idea who he can trust. As his old friends begin to fall before his helpless eyes he is also accused of murders he was the sole witness of. |
| Joker Loire of the Turks | Retaliation: Afterpiece Noir Prologue 1 2 3 Epilogue | FF8 | (Weiila)Dark with a capital D is the sequel to Retaliation, it hasn't got Noir in its title without a reason. I don't recommend people with paranoid tendencies to read this, because you'll have a field day... Squall's attempts to get on with his life in peace are completely smashed by the murder of his new girlfriend, and he's thrown back into the Netherworld of humanity in the hunt for the murderer. *checks list* Eh, we're gonna need more game-characters... |
| Joker Loire of the Turks | Retaliation: Endgame 1 2 3 4 5 Epilogue | FF8 | (Weiila)Yes, this really is the end of it, Joker says. The ultimate conspiracy will finally be revealed and solved, the person behind everything will be taken cared of... er... NOW we're REALLY out of game characters... anybody have a Phoenix Down? Not much more I can add really, if you've read the other parts of the Retaliation trilogy, you probably know the drill already. |
| Joker Loire of the Turks | Revenge | FF8 | (Weiila)Here we go with psycho Squall again, this time on a different level. I don't recommend that children and people who love the commander read this, as he's presented in a less than glorifying way. Those who don't think that Rinoa and Squall should be together can calmly read on, though, as well as those who like dark stuff. |
| Josephus | Ravages of Glory | FF6 | (Weiila)Dramatic and gripping about the time told in the legends of Final Fantasy 6; The War of the Magi. The tale follows the young man Treskyn, actually starting with him in a very bad condition and then moving back - in a very clever storytelling manner - to a couple of years earlier, of what led up to his situation. Impressive writing, this. But... hasn't anyone heard about never trusting a mysterious fellow with strange powers? |
| KaiserVonAlmasy | Not Going Back | FF8 | (Weiila) Seifer looks back on the events during the game, and he doesn't regret anything. Over and over repeating one single phrase, the only thing he can hold true after all he has gone through and lost. |
| KaiserVonAlmasy | Ovelia Delita | FF Tactics | (Weiila)Two poems from the world of Final Fantasy Tactics, the first from Ovelia's point of view, the other from Delita's. They're not a happy couple, and these are two very beautiful though bitter poems by the one and only KaiserVonAlmasy. |
| KaiserVonAlmasy | The Returners Save Christmas | FF6 | (Weiila)After the world was saved, Terra seems to have been falling into a depression. She still takes the time to tell "her kids" a Christmas story about a good king trying to save his country however. The legend of Santa Clause in Final Fantasyesque style... very cute ^_^ |
| KaiserVonAlmasy | Tales From A Parallel Universe: FF8: The Cast Scene 1-6 Scene 7-14 Scene 15-20 Scene 21-22 Scene 21-27 Scene 28-32 | FF8 | (Weiila)*tries to get back into the chair after falling off laughing* This is an insane humor fic by good ol' Kaiser, and a darn good one too! To sum it up; why try to stay true to the stereotypical character molds when you can smash them completely?! (Note: Sorted in chunks of 5-7 scenes) Now complete! |
| Kimmy B | Auron's Lost Loves 2 3 4 5 | FF10 | (Weiila)A currently brief (but promising to grow) tale about our favorite guardian in red reluctantly telling Tidus about his dark past which led him to the point where he now finds himself. |
| Kimmy B | What Am I Going To Do Now? | FF10 | (Weiila)Really, really short post FFX story about Yuna's feelings. Cute though :) |
| Lady Aliena | The Choice | FF7 | (Weiila)After the game, Cloud is still troubled with whom he truly loves. I know as well as everyone that there are mouthfuls of fics with "Aeris vs. Tifa in the blondie's heart" theme, but Aliena does a great job as always, so it's definitely worth the time it takes to read. |
| Lady Aliena | Days' Child Series:
Monday's Child Tuesday's Child Wednesday's Child Thursday's Child Friday's Child Saturday's Child Sunday's Child | FF8 | (Mazrim) This is actually a collection of seven fanfics, based on the children's nursery rhyme "Monday's child is fair of face, Tuesday's child is full of grace..." It's sort of a character study of each of the characters in FF8, attaching the 'fair of face' or whatnot label to each one of them, and then talking about their childhood, how they grew up to be the person they are in the game. It's actually really interesting, even if some of the histories are 'made up' in a sense by the author. It all makes sense, and the author has a very concise, very nice writing style that makes the reader gobble up each one of these stories in quick succession. Very cool if you've played FF8 (as you should, since it's one of the best FFs to date in the opinion of this humble librarian), and still cool (if a bit confusing) if you haven't. |
| Lady Aliena | Family | FF8 | (Mazrim) A charming story about what a Christmas in the world of Final Fantasy 8 might be like, this centers around how various characters would act, how they'd feel, what they'd think, based on both the game and on Lady Aliena's past writings (the Days' Children series). A nice story, good for some laughs/cries, as with most of Lady Aliena's work. |
| Lady Aliena | The First Time | FF8 | (StarStorm) A rather romantic fic, that ends on quite a funny note. Things are ultimately not what they seem (or what you think, you little perverts), and Aliena shows how well she can string her readers along. Still, a romantic comedy from an excellent author, and it's short, so go read! |
| Lady Aliena | Forever 2 3 4 | FF8 | (Weiila)Our queen of FF8 delivers yet another great piece, this one taking a gripping look into the way the human psyche works when feeling threatened in the game of friendships. Not the usual pairing here, but is it pairing? Are they just friends? This is the questions leading to the Misunderstanding. Excellently true-to-life and realistic. Maybe this'll help both all males out there and me understand why women change their minds so mysteriously and suddenly all the time... (no, I dunno either and I doubt many of us ladies normally do :P) |
| Lady Aliena | The Mission | FF8 | (Weiila)Selphie needs Irvine's help with a little shopping... and he gets to bring two friends along to do it. A good reason to learn not to laugh at a friend facing an embarrasing mission. Mildly humorous as the heroes show that they can plan, fight and survive... but maybe not get the best presents for a woman... |
| Lady Aliena | Misunderstanding | FF8 | (Weiila)Our queen of FF8 delivers yet another great piece, this one taking a gripping look into the way the human psyche works when feeling threatened in the game of friendships. Not the usual pairing here, but is it pairing? Are they just friends? This is the questions leading to the Misunderstanding. Excellently true-to-life and realistic. Maybe this'll help both all males out there and me understand why women change their minds so mysteriously and suddenly all the time... (no, I dunno either and I doubt many of us ladies normally do :P) |
| Lady Aliena | One Of Our Own | FF8 | (Mazrim) A fic set in the world of FF8, centered around Seifer (but told from the point of view of Xu), and about how the events up till the end of FF8 would have affected him. Interesting to see it from the point of view of an observer - but combined with Lady Aliena's writing style (which I must confess, it really impresses me, though I can't seem to find the words as to why), it creates quite the powerful piece. |
| Lady Aliena | The Narshe Trials | FF6 | (Mazrim) Set in the time after the end of Final Fantasy 6, this story provides a somewhat sad (if true to human nature) idea of what the future of the world will become. Celes is imprisoned for her previous ties to the empire, which of course angers the people who she fought with to save the world. This fanfic, from the points of view of three different people, shows how this new world of governmental politics is faced by the former heroes who saved the world. I know I'm overusing this word, but it's quite cool. :) |
| Lady Aliena | The Return | FF8 | (Weiila)And here's another great FF8-fic from our very own Lady Aliena. This one considers Seifer's attempts to return to a decent life after the end of the game. This is of course not free of complications, and the story will contain a few not too common but interesting and sweet lovepairings... |
| Lady Aliena | There's Something About Selphie | FF8 | (Mazrim) One of the few 'comedy' fanfics the archive's gotten in a long time, this fanfic just goes to show that even though Selphie might seem like an airhead...there's just something about her that ALL guys love. The bubbly personality, the constant smiling, the kawaii innocence, all these things tend to addle men's minds, used to a very amusing effect in this fanfic :P. |
| Lady Aliena | What About Nida? | FF8 | (Mazrim) Yeah! What ABOUT Norman? Err...Nida. ^_^ This fanfic centers around the trials and tribulations of Nida, the other SeeD graduate along with Squall, Zell, and Selphie in FF8. He's not mentioned much in the game (indeed, Squall even forgets his name), but this author with her cool, concise, yet very lively writing style brings him to life, and breathes humanity into this almost nameless character of FF8. |
| Lady Aliena | What About Xu? | FF8 | (Mazrim) A companion story to the epic tale "What about Nida?" this story is told from the point of view of Xu, another side character in the events of FF8. Basically, it's a retelling of the story of FF8 through her eyes, which is interesting if only to get a fresh perspective on everything. Funny, interesting, nice, cool, what better adjectives can a story ascribe to have? |
| Lady Aliena | Where You'll Be | FF8 | (Mazrim) A sequel to "What about Nida," reportedly written because Nida demanded to get the girl. Well, you'll see what happens in this story, which is very humorous, even if it is slightly bittersweet because Nida is quite shy and sensitive to things like that. It's as much a love story as anything, and one that I think the shy, more nerdy (it's not bad!) types could identify with. Or hope for. Sorta like Tenchi Muyo!... :P |
| Lady Aliena | Winter | FF8 | (Weiila) Whooo! Our classical FF8 queen is back! And with a fic even! Selphie tries to hold a speech about freeing the GFs, but people won't listen to her. This causes Irvine to ask Shiva to help out, which she does after some thought. But the Guardian Force of Ice might have other plans than merely helping out, as the gang of SeeDs soon finds out as their sniper starts acting weird. |
| LadyBlackMage | When Angels Deserve To Die | FF8 | (Mazrim) A short fanfic set in the world of FF8, about Seifer's descent into madness after the events of the game. And as we all know, insane characters are the most interesting, because we can't tell what they're going to do next. :P |
| Lady Reece | Because | FF9 | (Weiila) A quickie that deals with the relationship between Zidane and Garnet after the lil' thief has run off for a while to think things through and let himself cool down for a bit. Some things never change... Cute, and nice if you feel like reading a short story after all the epics. |
| Larathia | Griever Chronicles: Griever 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 |
FF8 | (Weiila)This is an epic FF8 story, at times cruel and dark but surrounded by sparkles of hope and light. Larathia works with a reaccuring theme in her fics, which you'll see more of later, about the origin of the Guardian Forces. I won't spoil it however. Squall goes against the SeeD rules in order to tell Rinoa further secrets of the mercenary schools, but she resolves to become one of the warriors anyway. Something is strange with the Griever ring, and somebody wants Squall for a devilish experiment... I advise younger readers to stay off this one, though it is fabulously wellwritten there are parts which children probably shouldn't read. |
| Larathia | Griever Chronicles: Zell 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 |
FF8 | (Weiila)Several years after the birth of Griever, Zell comes back from a mission he did well... until his client was killed, and he himself got deadly wounded. And that is merely the start of it, for as the investigation mainly led by Seifer goes on, it turns out that the torture that Squall was put through still left marks in the world, in the shape of six small humans... On top of that, Irvine will have to take Squall's place. In more ways than one... Once again an epic tale with action, romance and a bit of humor. Quite a great read indeed! |
| Larathia | Dark Messenger 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 | FF8 | (Weiila)So Griever is handled in their chronicles... what about one of the other Guardian Forces? What sorceress and her knight would create a creature so vile as Diablos? The gripping tale of the sorceress Carolin - a young tomboy woman with no plans of getting caught up in a net of men or knights, a group of Squires in training, and Lord Leonhart, a knight bitter after the death of his Sorceress, Marie. Interacts a little with Griever. |
| Last Cataclysm | The Seven Souls | FF8 | (Weiila)Reworked version, with new title. Used to be named The Über seed, now The seven souls. Another piece of FF8 fanfiction. The cast is celebrating a much needed vacation, but there's trouble abrewing. Zell seems distressed and restless... |
| Little Miss Little | The Fog over Dollet | FF8 | (Weiila)The tale of Seifer's father, how he lost his wife and left his son at the orphanage. Rather sad and melancholic, which of course isn't a bad thing. It's always great when non-existent characters get a little spotlight. |
| LunarCry | A Grand-idi Day Out 2 3 | FF8 | (Weiila)Action with a hint of humor, very nice! A training session in the forest turns into chaos and the heroes have to fight for their lives. In spite of a big scary villain trying to destroy the world, the SeeDs find themselves surrounded by an angry colony of one of the worst enemies in the whole FF-series. One that really should get better toothpaste... |
| LunarCry | Death Beyond Death 2 | FF8 | (Weiila)This fanfic dives into the conspiracy theory of Final Fantasy 8, the one claiming that Ultimecia isn't just a villain in the background but in fact in the game almost all the time. A tragic tale about a woman quickly slipping into utter despair and the evil sorceress' view of her last hours of life. |
| LunarCry | The Strangest of Friends | FF8 | (Weiila)LunarCry explores the time Selphie shortly mentioned that she had used a GF before coming to Balamb Garden. Great characterization of both Selphie and the GF in question, warmly recommended! (Though "warmly" might not be the word since it's all placed in Trabia, which is one cold place, but meh... ;)) |
| LunarCry | To Absent Friends... | FF8 | (Weiila)Not exactly a sequel to "The Strangest of Friends", but it might be a good idea to read that first as you'll meet Selphie's friends there, when they were younger. During the reconstruction of Trabia Selphie's bubble of optimism bursts due to harsh, unfair words and she breaks down. The only one available for listening turns out being Squall. |
| LunarCry | The Third 2 | FF9 | (Weiila)Mikoto's story, told from her view. Mostly in a quite robotic way, as she has no soul or emotions. And even as she gains them her world forces her to once again become cold. Very well written, and a masterful way of with words creating feelings of hopelessness and bitterness. |
| Mazrim Taim | Feral Wind | FF4 | (Saturn) Well written and concise. I tend to be quite long-winded in my fanfics, but this one is nice and short. A great plot and nice flowing continuity makes for a good read. |
| Mazrim Taim | The Kefka Project | FF6 | (Mazrim) One of my darker pieces, this fanfic goes in depth about how Kefka became the insane magic-user he was during Final Fantasy VI. It is a prequel, obviously, taking place before Kefka's rise to general. Nothing much else to say - it's a bit verbose at times, and I'm afraid it doesn't have too much humor, but I think it's a nice dark, deep piece. I may be biased, though. :) |
| Michael Carusi | Battle For Midgar | FF7 | (Mazrim) An interesting little fanfic set in the world of Final Fantasy 7, set around the interesting premise that Vincent's 'summoned monsters' are actually entities in and of themselves. It also co-stars the characters from the story "Bloody Claws", also in the archive, which I believe is one of its cooler qualities. Full of excitement and action, this story will appeal to those who...uhh...like excitement and action! :P |
| Michyu Girl | Afterward: The Story of Tifa | FF7 | (Weiila)A sweet lil' story. Tifa tells us about her thoughts, feelings and life after her world was saved, spanning from moments after Meteor to months afterwards. Now, monologue stories like this one might have been done before, but if it's sweet and tenderly written that doesn't matter, right? Give it a chance :) |
| Michyu Girl | When A Friend Goes Too Far | FF7 | (Weiila)Michyu returns with another Final Fantasy VII story, this one a much longer one than her first. The characters have had time to settle with their lives after the war against Meteor and Sephiroth, but the peace is shattered as one of their own begin to act strange. It seems like somebody finally found a GOOD way of killing of his enemies. |
| *~Mithfeniel~* | Past Regrets | FF8 | (Weiila)A FF8 quickie, an alternate version of the scene below the Ragnarok after Rinoa and Squall returned from space. Cute, but despite it's short length packed with spoilers, so those who didn't have any troubles in Esthar yet better stay off this one ;) Everyone else feel free to read. |
| *~Mithfeniel~* | What If | FF10 | (Weiila)Another story by Mithfeniel (though this is in fact her first, but I sort the fics by name unless it's a series). This one deals with the aftermatch of FFX, and Yuna trying to face the future despite all that has happened. |
| Morgaine MacLir | Oneesama E | FF5 | (Mazrim) A series of letters from Lenna to Faris, written very believably and well, it really captures the essence of who Lenna and Faris are, all in all an extremely good fanfic. Read it now! |
| Morgona Setterwind | Out on the Moonflow 2 | FF10 | (Weiila)Currently a brief but sweet FFX fic, mostly centering about the heroes that are left discussing what they have lost as they are camping by the Moonflow. It's pretty much standalone as it is, but the author has plans of making it into a longer story. |
| Mr D Heart | What Quistis Did Next Book One 2 3  | FF8 | (Weiila)It seems like that thing that Squall told Bahamut about being born to fight holds true. This is a mighty, fantastically well-written and imaginative epic in which Quistis attempts to start a new life, away from Garden. But her new career takes a turn that she hadn't expected and though she's a gym teacher she has to pick up her whip and start fighting again, for a town which won't even thank her it seems. As things doesn't turn out as planned, Quistis finds herself returning to where she come from, getting her hands full of three extraordinaire and undisciplined SeeD cadets. But even with the battles, this fic is more focused on everyday life of the people living in the FF8 world, with human thoughts and joys. |
| Mr. Saturn | The Four Elements | Misc. | (Mazrim) A semi-serious crossover fanfic with characters from FFIV, V, VI, VII, and Lufia. Very good plot, as far as fanfics go, with a scattering of humor throughout. Somewhat long, but if you have time, it's a must-read, especially since it's by Mr. Saturn, and if you praise it along with your submissions, maybe your fanfic will have a better chance of getting in! |
| Mr. Saturn | The Game | Misc. | (Mazrim) Long, humorous fanfic starring characters from FFIV, V, VI, VII, and Chrono Trigger. Focuses on what would happen if characters from various games were forced into proximity with one another, as a result an involving plot isn't needed. If you're bored and have nothing to do for a long time, this fic will most likely make you laugh. |
| Mr. Saturn | Unnamed Fanfic | FF4 | (Saturn) This is a work in progress of Final Fantasy IV. I'm trying to stay serious, and follow all rules of grammar, etc. I know where I'm going with it, but haven't found the motivation to finish it lately, so, if you like where it's going, feel free to drop me a line. |
| Neb | Bad Blood 2 | FF8 | (Weiila)A sometimes cruel but very well-written FF8 story about Seifer attempting to have revenge against the heroes, specifically Squall. In his quest for this he about every dirty trick in the book, not holding back for anything. When Balamb Garden is attacked from the inside Zell is badly hurt and Squall, Selfie, Irvine, Quistis and Nida are dispatched to find the madman behind the bombings, leaving Rinoa behind for her own safety. However the group manage to fall in a trap set by Seifer. Not for younger readers. |
| Neb | Retribution 2 3 4 5 | FF8 | (Weiila)The sequel to Bad Blood, a cruel and rather violent but well-written and gripping tale about one man trying to avange his sister and not shunning for anything to have his revenge on those he deem guilty. No one of the heroes is safe, not even from each other. I'm not much for horror movies myself, but I've always wondered how the psychos manage to get access to every place they're supposed to NOT be around... And lo, this story is not for the young ones. |
| Neb | Heritage 2 | FF8 | (Weiila)Eighteen years have passed since Chris terrorized the heroes, and now the children of the old troop are in the middle of everything. But times aren't any more peaceful now than during the second Sorceress war, for now a group called dark SeeD are out to stir trouble. Rinoa is shattered after a tragic event following the enemies' first raid, and thus she doesn't even notice that something terrible is about to happen to one of her daughters... |
| Neb | The Weakest Link: Final Fantasy Style | Misc. | (Weiila)Parodies, parodies... of TV-shows. Let's play the Weakest Link with the Final Fantasy heroes of the Playstation and Playstation 2! Who'll win this wrestlematch of brains and cunning, and walk home with the prize money in their grubby hands? |
| Nell | Final Fantasy III: The Movie 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 | FF6 | (Mazrim) A long, picture-filled epic of a fic, this story looks at stuff that happens after the game of FF6. Written in a somewhat grandiose manner, it's an interesting read if you have a lot of time. |
| Nev Stardust | Darkest Days | FF7 | (Weiila)Our first songfic. So, alright, we have them. However, I think that if you use a song in a fic then do not base the fic on the song, but let it be a help for the story. This one is a fine example of such, about Vincent's bitter thoughts and views upon himself. It has been done before, it can be done again if done well, and this is :) |
| Nick Fidler | The Epic of The Onion Knight | FF3 | (Weiila)Hey look, finally (pardon the pun) some Final Fantasy III (the Japanese one) action! This is a very cute and funny poem about the quest of the four Onion Kids that set off to destroy the great evil that threathens the world. The tale retold in a quirky and humorous way :) |
| nights-into-dreams | If I Said I Loved You... | FF7 | (Weiila)The first one of two connected stories taking place in FF7. Tifa sits with Cloud beneath the Highwind and thinks about the blonde warrior with the huge sword, trying to sort out what she feels for him, and what she should do about it. |
| nights-into-dreams | ... Would You Turn Away? | FF7 | (Weiila)The second one of two connected stories taking place in FF7. As Tifa sits with Cloud and wrestles with her emotions, Cloud steals glances at her and tries to pan out what he, too, feels about his childhood friend. |
| NoOne | Akin to Sin | FF10 | (Weiila)A man from our world falls into Spira... no wait, come back here! This one actually makes something of it, and is not a Marty-Stue story. NoOne takes on the more practical problems of being thrown into a whole new world, like cultural differences and the simple things such as having to learn to like the weird food the other dimension has to offer. And while the original character Weston tries to make something of his new existance, Lulu and Wakka try to sort their relationship out - and New Yevon aren't planning good stuff. Pesky fanatics, aren't they? |
| Owen Axel | Chronicles of the Light Warriors 2 | FF1 | (Weiila)It's another novelization of the legendary original Final Fantasy game, this one a mix of drama, adventure and humor. Four warriors find themselves in a land they do not think they recognize, and all they can remember are their names. But each one is carrying a crystal shard, and evil is brewin'. So off goes the valiant heroes, bickering among themselves, blowing geometrical shapes with smoke, killing bad guys, getting irritated at kings, opening the way for future games and... playing cards when it's raining. |
| Owen Axel | Chronicles of the Light Warriors: Otherworld | FF1 | (Weiila)Bahamut tells a partly heartwarming, partly tragic story about a Christmas long ago on the world of Effeffeye, before the time loop started and the Defiler, Chaos, begun his rampage on history. Each one of the Light Warriors, before their battle started, is looked upon this last peaceful Christmas - and even Garland. |
| Owen Axel | FFIX: The Return | FF1 | (Weiila)It's another novelization of the legendary original Final Fantasy game, this one a mix of drama, adventure and humor. Four warriors find themselves in a land they do not think they recognize, and all they can remember are their names. But each one is carrying a crystal shard, and evil is brewin'. So off goes the valiant heroes, bickering among themselves, blowing geometrical shapes with smoke, killing bad guys, getting irritated at kings, opening the way for future games and... playing cards when it's raining. |
| Paln | Crystal Kin | FF4 | (Mazrim) Not so much a fanfic as a look at how the four fiends of Final Fantasy IV might act toward each other "off-screen." It offers novel views of each of the fiends, what their fears, worries, and desires are. He ties into the game, but the ties are more subtle than you might think. For example, you might wonder why Milon in FFIV is much weaker than the other fiends. This fanfic provides an answer to that. |
| Phantasy_Starlight | Miracle | FF8 | (Weiila)This is how a songfic should be in my opinion, the text spreading out like a fan with the quotes from the song just being the tip of the handle that keeps the rest assembled. Yes, that was a really strange description, but meh. We're talking about the fic here. A well-written and nice romance story for those who think that the blonde gal should get a blonde guy, and we're not talking about the hyperactive hero here. It may take a while, but Seifer finally manages to redeem himself and make it to becoming a SeeD. But not without fighting with Quistis all the way, of course. |
| Phantasy_Starlight | One Last Breath | FF10 | (TD)A rather strange FFX fic. Auron and Rikku had something going on until he and Tidus got their asses shipped to the Farplane. So after a few months of heavy depression, Auron decides to "kill himself". Only, instead of dying (he was already dead), he suddenly finds himself back on Spira... in Tidus' body! |
| Pierson | Darkness Falls 2 3 | FF10 | (Weiila)Alternate universe stories that are set within the games themselves are almost bound to be very interesting, and so is this one. During the attempt to kidnap Yuna on the Moonflow, Rikku dies instead of escaping safely. She becomes an unsent and follows the group of guardians just like it was in the game, but seen through the eyes of the young, bitter girl who unbeknowst to her share the fate of Auron. It doesn't get any better when a certain creepy half-Guado notices her shape. |
| Pierson | Diamond Dust 2 3 4 | FF8 | (Weiila) An impressive tale with Quistis in the center, actually starting with her death. But as the Reaper reaches out for her it is stopped by Shiva, who offers the woman a second chance at life. But on the condition that Quistis becomes the GF to let the old one leave. Evil forces from Hell itself are bent on destroying Earth, and it seems like Quistis is the only one able to stop them. But at a terrible price, which doesn't get any lower as one of the old GF's finds himself (VERY reluctantly) falling in love with her. Hard to find a stranger pairing, but it works... ^_^; I've always been fond of stories where the espers/GFs/eidolons gets actual personalities myself. An epic with drama, humor (especially when Carbuncle gets involved with coffee...), romance and action. Not to forget the minor FF6 crossover and the Men in Black references. Ehehe... stupid farmers. RUN! |
| Pierson | Echoes of the Past 2 4 | FF8/10 | (Tenchimaru Draconis)Roughly 200000 years after the events in Diamond Dust (give or take a millenium) Riku... uh... "releases" Quistis from her imprisonment. But solitary confinement took it's toll... |
| Pierson | Fifty Days | (TD)Quistis checks in with the doctor, while the rest of the gang is enjoying getting skin cancer at the beach. But Quistis seems to have something a bit more than a headache... | |
| Princess Nadia | Perspectives | FF7 | (Mazrim) A short fanfic from the point of view of Elena, just before Tseng's death. Sorry it's only available in text format, but Frontpage wasn't cooperating when I tried to html-ize it, and I've had enough trouble for the day. (16/8 shtmlized) |
| Prometheus | Call of the Eternal Wind | FF5 | (TD)(TD)A short fic about how, and why, Bartz started his adventuring career, and got involved with that whole crystal thing. Pretty nice. |
| Prometheus | Flowers Grow 2 3 4 5 6 7 | FF7 | (Weiila)Sephiroth was defeated, and Meteor was fought back. But things aren't looking as good as they promised to be. Cloud is trying to cope with his strangling guilt and the hopeless love for a dead woman, caught in a bad depression. Tifa and Barret comes to see him in hopes of cheering him up, but somebody else also shows up with bad news... Perhaps you have seen plots with somewhat the same seed of a plot, but I promise you that this stands out from the crowd with Prometheus' elegant and breathtaking descriptions of emotions and nature. |
| Prometheus | Sins of the Father | FF7 | (TD)A beautiful fairy tale about genetic engineering, Vincent, and the birth of Sephroth. (can't say more, or I spoil) |
| Prometheus | Glories of the Son |
FF7 | (Weiila)Hojo finally got his surviving sample, and now he's set on putting it into action. In the violent war between Wutai and Shin-Ra, sixteen year old Sephiroth faces his first battle as he is given command of the invasion troops. This one speaks a lot of how his psyche was shaped... |
