We're on the Same Team by Millenia Marik
 * Recommended by Never Knew

Ceasefire, by DingDongFootball

The Ninth Class, by Cheese222
 * Recommended by Irecco
 * Comments: TF2. I came across this fanfiction thinking it was terrible. I was VERY wrong! Since it's title is terribly misleading, this story hasn't gotten even 1% of the attention I think it deserves! Slight violence, Spy-centric, no pairings (so far). Story still in progress!

 * Recommended by Wild Okapi
 * Summary: It's been eight years since RED team split up. Everyone's moved on and made new lives for themselves, but not everyone's got along as well as the rest and events that have transpired over those eight years boil to the surface. Even the best reunions can bring out the worst revelations.

Machinimas/Animations
Ignis Solus
 * Recommended by Chabal 2
 * Comments: A story that shows the Pyro's Psychopathic Manchild side, while managing to make you feel sorry for him. With awesome music to boot.
 * Here you go.

Spy and Pyro by Andrew Kepple (here)

Law-Abiding Engineer, by TrueOneMoreUser
 * Recommended by Meg The Maggot
 * Comments: The TF2 characters animated into the trailer for Law Abiding Citizen.

Dance Fortress 2, by thejazzman9475
 * Recommended by Shroomy
 * Comments: Hands down one of the best fan-made animations this troper has ever seen. The animation is fluid and detailed, and the personalities of the various characters are captured perfectly in their movements. You'll end up watching several times to catch everything you missed.

Meet the Pyro, by avemagnadude
 * Recommended by Quanyails
 * Comments: A fan-made version of the missing "Meet the Team" movies that isn't a rickroll or two-frame flipbook? Especially with custom animation and a twist on the speculation of the Pyro's identity? Excellent!

Beat It in TF2 by lass1234
 * Recommended by Sgt Frog 1
 * Comments: Possibly inspired by the special Halloween-only taunt that mimics the famous Thriller dance, this is an extremely well-animated video of all 18 characters (9 from RED, 9 from BLU) dancing to Michael Jackson's "Beat It". Watch it and be amazed!

TF2: Sentry Sabotage! by CorridorDigital
 * Recommended by Dreamy_Hunter
 * Comments: What Team Fortress 2 might look like as a live-action short. Has exceptionally well-done effects and nice music, to boot.

Heavy's Revelation by Mister Mild
