See, before the CBD becomes awash in suits and ties, business calls and pager beeps, closed deals and train rides home, there’s really nothing that makes this part of the city different from any other part of Beijing. There’s the blue-black before the dawn. There’s the switch of the traffic lights cueing the first pass of drivers. And there’s the silence. And what separates the strongest of the nine-to-fivers—the tip-top, the best of the best, destined to lead the Fortune 500’s that they slave for one day—from the wet, limp noodles? [or; it's quarterly review day for The Three Tumors]
Bookmarker's Notes:
This was a work of art. A faithful interpretation of canon with a modern twist. This is easily my favorite TGCF fic – sheer sadistic glee.

A morpheme is the smallest part of a word that still has meaning. If you take away everything else, you still know what it means. When you take away everything else of me, this is what remains.
...It's mostly good hair and a love of language. Everything else is take it or leave it, really.
(In which a very sarcastic guy gets reborn into a small poisoner's clan in Konoha, and accidentally saves a life. Things change.)
Bookmarker's Notes:
I love the changes to canon and this OC, but it is somewhat disconcerting that we share all of our interests. I feel like I've been skinwalked.
Anyway, I love the poison and Kakashi being a little shit. What a delightful fic.

Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, and sometimes the immortal leader of a cult tries to summon the god of death and gets you instead. ‘Not dying’ just got a lot more complicated than ‘follow chemlab safety instructions.’ A tongue-in-cheek, Akatsuki-centric SI/OC.
Bookmarker's Notes:
I love love love love love Tori. This is an absolutely flawless SI/OC fic which I devoured in less than 24 hours. I love the ninja science, I love the Akatsuki interactions, I love the absurd applications of fuinjutsu.
Do you want to see an OC lecture Orochimaru and Kabuto on the scientific method? Do you want passionate literary critiques of Icha Icha? Do you want answers to questions such as: "do microbes have chakra" and "does the Naruto world have penicillin?"? You do, for the record. This fic is the answer to all your problems. Molt your morals along with our protagonist – I promise that you won't regret it.

Sasuke’s Rinnegan gives him the ability to open portals to other dimensions; with enough chakra, he can even bring other people along with him. What Sasuke’s Rinnegan does not do is give him the emotional bandwidth to deal with whatever the fuck he might find in those other dimensions.
Bookmarker's Notes:
I'm a huge fan of canon being told as a crazy, improbable joke where the punchline is that everyone is actually in a loving relationship. My heart is happy. I really love this Hinata in particular, she seems more comfortable in her skin and settled in her life. Compelling argument for at least one flavor of SasuHina for sure.

Deidara doesn't remember much of his childhood. Reliving it, he finds out why.
Bookmarker's Notes:
Incredible. Very captivating, this backstory for Deidara makes a terrifying amount of sense. Read the first chapter if that's what you're here for, read the second if you want Tori shenanigans too. I can emphatically vouch for both.

A lot of things in life suck, like being reincarnated directly into the Third Shinobi War with a bad pun for a name. 'Not dying' just refuses to get less complicated. A Plasticity AU.
Bookmarker's Notes:
Excuse my descent into OC & canon madness. Please read Plasticity first. That being said:
What a joy to read. I'm obsessed with the Plasticity universe and all its spin-offs . . . it's insane that this would happen twice, though. Can you imagine?

Pairings: Haruno Sakura & Orochimaru
Fandom:
Naruto
open_in_new TagsGraphic Depictions Of Violence, Haruno Sakura & Orochimaru, Haruno Sakura, Orochimaru (Naruto), Shimura Danzou, Body Horror, Human Experimentation, AU where Orochimaru stays in Konoha, Orochimaru is both a fantastic teacher and a terrible human being Summary:
Orochimaru-sama comes to the Academy and asks for the student with the best calligraphy. “Only the girls learn it,” Iruka-sensei says, and Orochimaru-sama clicks his tongue like he disapproves. “But we have several capable young kunoichi.” Sakura has the highest marks in calligraphy, higher even than Ino-chan. She has good marks in their painting class, too, and any class that involves holding a pencil. She tells Orochimaru-sama this proudly. “How wonderful,” he says, and she’s giddy with praise from the legendary war hero. He wants to see her write, so she does. They go to Iruka-sensei’s desk and both her teacher and Orochimaru-sama watch her. Orochimaru-sama asks her to write smaller and smaller. She does. He praises her. “Yes,” he says, “I think you’ll do.”
Bookmarker's Notes:
This is so fucking GOOD. Sakura not knowing what's going on as she absorbs Orochimaru's habits and outlook, Sakura slowly losing her outside life to her research . . . Here's a line which very clearly illustrates her outlook near the end of the story:
Orochimaru-sama wouldn’t waste precious resources like children if he didn’t need to. That research must have been important.
I'm in awe. Absolutely perfect. The mad science of it all tickled me.

Summary:
Izuku has won a fan contest for redesigning Dynamight's summer costume. That means he gets to meet with the Dynamight in all his glory! There are just two problems: 1) the costume that he submitted to the contest turns out to be his…er…more personal design, instead of the contest-appropriate one he thought he sent in. And 2) Kacchan definitely remembers him from junior high. Can things get any more awkward? (The answer is, of course, yes.)
Bookmarker's Notes:
Ignore the "teen and up" rating, this one gets horny. Katsuki's boobs should be tagged as a character.

In which Mokuba, much like the rest of Kaiba Corp's senior staff, has some opinions the whole 'buying an island with an active volcano on it' thing.
Bookmarker's Notes:
So good. This is absolutely how the founding of Duel Academia(s) went and, as a bonus, this fic felt alive. Mokuba slice-of-life interspersed with the most batshit wonderful descriptions of fantasy tech interspersed with the insanity of both Kaibas. Would absolutely read again.

open_in_new TagsUnderage, Peter Parker/Wade Wilson, Falling In Love, Alternate Universe - Soulmates, Soulmate-Identifying Marks, Post-Spider-Man: Homecoming, Slow Burn, Age Difference, Underage Character(s), Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder - PTSD Summary:
‘It doesn’t have to change anything,’ he thinks to himself, staring in the mirror at the words that refuse to budge from where they’ve permanently etched themselves into his skin, his blood, his bones. ‘Nobody has to know.’ In a world where your soulmate’s first words to you end up on your skin, Peter and Wade take turns figuring things out, rescuing each other, and falling in love.
Bookmarker's Notes:
Unspeakably good; marvelous atmosphere and pacing. The soulmatism in this fic didn't feel like destiny so much as inevitability; call that a kind of destiny if you want, but for me the distinction is the "digging in my heels" component you get out of fics like this.
