I would recommend basicallymonsters if you're looking for angst (and some fluff).

Also here a few fluffy fics by dizzy, but you should really just read all of her phanfics tbh.
alright, i'm starting on them now. c: thank you! time to go be

Really enjoyed this one by cosmogeny. Part 2, but can be read as a stand-alone.

Another fave fluff writer: phanetixs. All their fics are a combination of pure fluff, hilarity and amazing puns

The Harvest For The Seed by cosmogeny
https://archiveofourown.org/works/9123400
This is a fic about Dan making a coming out tweet. The writer characterizes both him and Phil very well and the the whole thing sounds like something that could actually happen. It's a sequel to another fic but you don't need to read that one first

Amazing!! I wasn't that into the original story but I love this sequel. It's so cute and I agree characterization is spot on.

looking like a morning star by queerofcups - Phil is perceptive. Dan has nail polish, a choker and no timeline. It's all fine though. This is Phil perspective and done so damn well it's actually delicious.

feral: an interlude by snsk - Part of nad's puppy play kink series and also actual perfection.

A Night Reimagined - phan au where Phil goes to school in London and meets Dan the night Dan's girlfriend breaks up to him. It's 11.5k and probably the best phan au I've read in a really long time. I can't rec this one highly enough.

Looking Back by itislacey - Dan and Phil are in their 80s. I'm not sure I've ever read old person phan that wasn't just a tack on to a fic. It does have quite a lot of flashback scenes, which generally I'm not crazy about (just as a personal preference) but I like how the aged up scenes are set so much that I'm definitely reccing it anyway.

outside of closed doors by winstonlives - Tooth rotting fluff, very nice if you just want a smile.

heart full of head lines by dantiloquent

Somehow I managed to miss this amazing fic. I cannot even put into words how much I loved this. A writer AU, with a slight fantasy twist. Just amazing, perfect, and haunting. warning: Lots of angst. Spoiler below:
The angst does resolve.

Yes! One of my favourite's from this year's Big Bang!

parentaladvisorybullshitcontent posted a fic snippet (of what will hopefully become a full fic) on her tumblr today: In which Dan finds a time capsule.

(I was happy to discover that she had a tumblr and encourage you to go forth, follow, and show this fic some love)

Currently reading and quite liking Bluebird by Ivckyphan. It's an AU and technically a WIP but apparently it's all finished and the author is posting a chapter a day. I'm a bit worried about the archive warnings though :sideeye:

Sidetracked by phanimist

Author's summary:

Dan and Phil are both contestants on 'The Bachelorette', but fall in love with each other instead of the girl.

Beautiful long chaptered fic that left me feeling warm and fuzzy. It was completed a few days ago and I couldn't recommend it more! Perfect for reading on a lazy day with a warm blanket.

Ohmygods. I can't believe I forgot to rec that! I mean, I haven't watched "The Bachelorette", but... damn. That's one good fic. It's 80+K words, but it's definitely worth it!
I know that the author said that there'll be no sequel, but I'm kinda interested on how people watching the show will react once they figure out that Dan refused the rose because he already fell in-love with Phil, not Jess. Also, I'm really interested on how they'll act outside their homes once they're recognized by some random person out in the streets.

I almost cried reading this one, so I think it's a winner.
Hidden Behind Straightened Hair by insanityplays

The five times Dan’s hair was used as a joke to hide his insecurity about his sexuality, and the one time it wasn’t.

ohohoh have I got some good fics

if your into long ones, that eventually end in parent!phan

Snapchat- https://www.wattpad.com/story/65038953-snapchat-phan (dan and phil fall in love and there are a load of troubles along the way)

(the sequel to snapchat) delivered- https://www.wattpad.com/story/81830803-delivered-phan



REALLY LONG ONES LIKE NO JOKE ONE OF THEM TOOK ME THREE DAYS OF NONSTOP READING

Come What May- http://archiveofourown.org/works/898023 ... rs/1735119
(a young dan works at a strip club after running away from home. phil is out one night with his friends and immediately catches feelings for this mysterious young stripper. a stripper under the alias, Greyson bear.) lol the synopsis sounds stupid, but if u want a balance of an amazing storyline and smutty smutt smutt, then read this for sure

Fools Gold- https://archiveofourown.org/works/863871
(dan applies for fashion school in nyc and makes it in. phil is studying in university to be a marketing expert. they meet, and try to build a life together in the big city)


sad sad sad

speak- https://www.wattpad.com/story/41699012-speak-phan
(due to a terrible accident, dan has lost his ability to speak, he is mute and communicates through written notes and texting. when he meets phil, a bubbly and rambling guy, constant word vomit, dan wishes he could talk more than ever and phil is left speechless)

bad boys don't smile (warning it has dark themes)- https://www.wattpad.com/story/50435627- ... smile-phan
(a hardcore bully type(dan) is feared all around the school, yet little do they know anything about his personal life. phil befriends him, or at least tries, and only get pushed away)



okay so basically anytime I post recs, most likely anything else the author writes is absolutely :D so also check out other works by them, they are fan-fucking-fabulous

I have never cried at a fanfic before, but I've been sobbing for the last two hours. This broke me, it's so beautifully written and I was so into it I read it all in one go. I cried several times throughout the book but the end was heartbreaking. This is almost all angst, so if you like that than you should read it. If you don't, I advice you to stay far away from this book. This fic is amazing and so cruel. :wahh:

Not sure if this has been recced before as a WIP, but it's complete now so I finally read it and it's so damn good.

There You Were (Inside My Brain) by parentaladvisorybullshitcontent - almost 50k, lots of communication mishap angst - but the romcom variety, not serious angst - and definitely a very happy ending. Good writing, good characterization, and I appreciate how Dan and his attitude toward university is treated. That felt very realistic within the au situation.

Not op, but they probably ment this one? https://archiveofourown.org/works/8638711

I could swear that I got the link from here the other day when I started reading it and today I wanted to continue reading and I for a moment I thought I was going crazy when it linked to this other story :lol: Then I remembered that I was checking best phanfiction nomination that day
