I love love loved Marked in Constellation by hunterfics.

It's based on the "San Junipero" episode of Black Mirror so it's all very angsty and bittersweet and lovely. I like it a lot

tug you closer by mysterylovescompany - sick!fic!! my fave.

A Day in the QPR of Dan and Phil by INeverHadMyInternetPhase - Dan and Phil as queerplatonic partners. Entirely sweet and cuddly and full of wonderful affection and a fantastic portrayal of them in a queerplatonic relationship.

This was so beautiful, it made me bawl my eyes out, thank you for recommending it!

A fic I really enjoyed recently was The Choices We Make by emptylester.

It's a proposal fic set on the IoM and is written very beautifully/realistically

I don't know if some of these has been recommended yet, so... here:

Your Loves A Fucking Drag (But I Need It So Bad) - http://phansdick.tumblr.com/post/138483 ... -it-so-bad
It's a collab, and... I think it updates monthly? It's basically a FWB situation.

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

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


hi guys I made a mistake on posting the wrong link, fools gold is actually here https://archiveofourown.org/works/8638711

I don't like death fics usually, but I can recommend these ones:



sorry to take the piss. i don't usually read death fics but i could resist answering. anyway if you do want fics where at least Phil dies (srs bsns), here are a couple good ones i've read:
Blink Back to Let Me Know by wallflowerchronicles
Home is Where the Heart Is by goldenrose95
synchronicity by hamartiawrites

https://m.fanfiction.net/s/9168073/1/Wh ... ion-Parody a bit of a different kind of fanfic- from the dreaded 2012 years where shipping was considered a wee bit silly. A phangirl makes a wish that Dan and Phil are together and *poof* so they are-- because of a magic chocolate. but they don't want to be together so they go on a bunch of misadventures to get their real lives back.
they don't get together in the end tho
i haven't actually read it since I was thirteen so it might be cringey/ problematic but I still remember it to this day so it must have something going for it. A good crack!ish romp, and a fossil into understanding the minds of old school phans. Warning: mentions of Nerimon

A perfect mix of good characterisation, angst and a dreamy, beautiful style.

...Just logged in to say that I feel bad for not including disclaimers in all the Phanfics that I've written, and I'm tempted to stop writing Phanfics. Of course, I'll still write while probably feeling guilty about it, and will include disclaimers, obviously.

So, parentaladvisorybullshitcontent (whose writing I love and adore) posted the second chapter of her vampire!au fic (which looks like it's going to be the first in a series) - Hanging Out With Corpses

I liked it a lot and am already looking forward to what comes next!

This.Is.Incredible.

I thought it would be cringy and horrible and checked it out of curiosity but no, I am 12 chapters in and laughing hysterically instead of going to bed. And good ole ff.net formatting and author's note bringing in the nostalgia trip lol

Although it is amusing that it spoofed self inserts before featuring a legit insert, but whatever, still hilariois

Sorry for double posting, but these two are just so fluffy that I need to rec it:

http://writingphanfiction.tumblr.com/po ... t-vague-me
Summary: Who knew making a secret phandom account would cause dan this much trouble?

http://theaterkidlester.tumblr.com/post ... 0-get-some
Summary: One night, Chris drunkenly suggested that Dan call a phone sex line to figure out his sexuality. Since then, Dan has been hooked on a person who works there, with a gorgeous deep chuckle and the name of Phil.

Also, I just finished Thoughts Likened to Rain (the one I reccomended yesterday), and it's so good! It's a horror, murder-mystery type of thing, and if you're up to some gore, graphic violence, and some sexual content, you should check it out!
