Young Justice (animation)/Fanfic Recs

Proof that the remaining 10% is worth dying for here.

These are recommendations made by Tropers for Young Justice fanfics, both the series, and the comics, all of which have to be signed to stay on the page. Feel free to add a fanfic of your own to the list, but remember to use the template found here.

You can also add to the current recommendations if you want. Refrain from posting Conversation in the Main Page though; that goes in the discussion page.

Sidenote: Quite a few of the fics recommended are from the YJ Anon Meme, hence why a lot of the author's are listed as "anon". Attempts will be made as time goes by to change this if the author's themselves decide to de-anon on the meme.

Authors
Shade's Ninde
 * Recommended by Gracie Geek
 * This author is the king of Koy (Kaldur/Roy) fics, so I'm surprised his name isn't in this section yet. Some of them are bromance, some expertly crafted romance, and his Roy and her Kaldur are so IC it's almost scary. He's also written many Kaldur-centric oneshots / multi-chaptered fics that give Kaldur the spotlight he deserves but isn't always given.

Alternate Universe Fics
Following Footsteps by Jessesgirl1549
 * Recommended by Much Ado About Nonny
 * Synopsis: "-He's my son." Diana watched the youth beyond the glass' eyes twinkle, she smiled softly and added in a lower tone just for him, "Aren't you?" They wanted the ultimate weapon, so it was logical Cadmus would use another hero's DNA for Superboy as well.
 * Comments: Wonder Woman fans will love this. Diana's character is done fairly well, and her relationship with Superboy is heartwarming.

The New Kid On the Block and the sequel/continuation Marathon, followed by Network by x meets y
 * Recommended by Catchandelier 34
 * Synopsis: Kid Flash's the newest thief in town. Dashing in and dashing out, he's the epitome of a "cool" thief, and has even had Robin-hood like escapades. Young Justice's mission? Find him, catch him, and see if they can turn him to the side of good.
 * Comments: Semi-Dark!Wally fans will like this one. I mean, you've got AU elements in spades, and you've got the most seamless integration of MULTIPLE cannons ever. But if that isn't enough for you... Wally wears a fedora in this one. It still isn't at the climax of the story, but what is there to read is pure win. It even has a pretty regular update schedule.
 * Here's its own trope page!

Strays by blackash26
 * Recommended by Willowleaf and Hinn Raven
 * Synopsis: Batman is very happy with the way that Robin has picked up his training, his methods and his habits. Generally. But his protege showing up at the Batcave with two small children, Tim and Jason, clinging to him proves he's adopted one trait Batman would have rather he hadn't. It seems the batfamily has an incurable penchant for picking up strays, and Tim and Jason are only the beginning.
 * Comments: This fic is one of the most heart-meltingly adorable things in YJ fanfiction. Be warned, for this trooper does not "aaaaw" easily.
 * Seconded. This story is full of warm and fuzzy feelings, and every character is perfect. This story is the perfect thing to put a smile on your face and Batfamily love in your heart.
 * Here's its own tropes page!

Whiteout by Subatomic_grape
 * Recommended by Lavanya Six
 * Synopsis: Minor AU. M’gann tries to ignore what she is, but after being forced back into her natural form every muscle in her body wants to go back to what feels powerful and comes naturally to her. It finally comes to a head when her team is threatened, and she is forced to choose between her shame, and their lives.

"Healing by Sassbrat
 * Recommended by ladyofthelibrary
 * Synopsis: Female Wally: Boudicca 'Brodie' West is found in an alley by two of the Rogues after being raped. As time goes by she struggles with healing from her ordeal with the help of her friends.
 * Comments: As might indicated by the summary, this story manages to avert Rape as Drama by showing a very realistic reaction to both the rape and the aftermath by Brodie, the fem!Kid Flash and also showcases the reactions of those around her. There Are No Therapists is averted like in the show with Warrior Therapist Black Canary trying to talk with Brodie. While still incomplete, this story is well written and updates with semi-regularity. Worth your time whatever your opinion of the pairing or the premise is.
 * Warnings: Discussion of rape.
 * Pairings: Red Arrow/fem!Kid Flash

"Cranes" by Catchandelier
 * Recommended by Willowleaf
 * Synopsis: In one world, one we're more familiar with, Jonathan Crane has died. What essentially amounts to a cosmic filing problem leads to the former supervillain being offered a deal: He can be reborn into the world and become a hero, or he can die. Well, it was considerate of the Powers That Be to make the choice simple, in any case. He accepts, and in another time and another place, Johnny Crane is taken in by his previously unknown great uncle on his mother's side: One Alfred Pennyworth. In another time and another place, Jonny Crane moonlights as a vigilante known as Scarecrow on the streets of Gotham, and the team known as Young Justice is a very different group (somehow, though, everything important has stayed exactly the same).
 * Comments: A hugely fun AU in which Scarecrow works bizarrely well as a good guy. The occasional interludes delve into the backstories of the people and places of this new world, letting the readers know exactly how much has changed and what's stayed the same. The author obviously loves writing this, and that love and excitement for AU potential just kind of oozes through the entire story.

A Minor Situation by hinn_raven
 * Recommended by ladyofthelibrary
 * Synopsis: Gotham Academy is taken hostage and due to Batman being on League business, Young Justice is deployed. While infiltrating the Academy, the Team meets up with Artemis, Barbara Gordan, Dick Grayson...and Dick's younger siblings. Due to Wally and Dick being a couple, the Batsibs decide to test their older brother's boyfriend while Dick enjoys trolling his boyfriend because the rest of the team doesn't know Dick = Robin so they think Wally is cheating on both of them. But seriously; what could go wrong?
 * Comments: A surprisingly funny story so far given the set up and the Batkids are adorable. This is shaping up to be a good read, especially if you either like Robin/Kid Flash or the Strays AU because apparently it was a big inspiration.

General Fics
With Proper Motivation by Fayah
 * Recommended by eruFUN
 * Synopsis: Mr. Freeze realizes that there's a much easier way to find the cure to his wife's terminal illness: inject Robin with the same disease and let Batman do the work for him. After all, the dark knight can supposedly do anything with the proper motivation.
 * Comments: This is a really interesting take on how one event changes the canon events completely, and it's done in a way that there isn't much rehashing of the same exact canon scenes. The writing is excellent and the characterizations are spot on. If you like something that flirts with canon elements but also takes an unique route of its own, you should try this

Some Sort of Truth by kittu9
 * Recommended by J the Drafter
 * Synopsis: Zatanna spends a long month mourning her lost father. (Second Person)
 * Comments: This is the best take on Zatanna's place in the aftermath of "Misplaced" that this troper has yet read, and he's read a couple good ones. The writing does a wonderful job getting Zatanna's grief across, and the plot smoothly goes through the all changes Zatanna is forced to adjust to.

Before the Dawn by meowfu
 * Recommended by foxfireflamequeen, eruFUN
 * Synopsis: Robin was captured and tortured, and he is not okay. But no one knows how to fix him when they're not sure what's broken. This is a story of pain and recovery, of family, friends and support, and this is how Robin learned to laugh again.
 * Trigger Warnings: Graphic torture and non-graphic violation (they last a very short time, though, and the writer has specified the locations of all the explicit scenes here if you want to skip them); clinical depression.
 * Comments: A beautifully realistic venture into a dark, tragic world. Keep the tissues at hand; this is an emotional rollercoaster.

Proof in the Parenting by Takebuo Ishimatsu
 * Recommended by Fan Girl And Proud Of It, Zephyr7
 * Synopsis: "The League is amused to realize that little Dick Grayson isn't the only one learning things from his new family." Batman's interaction with Robin, as witnessed by the Justice League.

Control by writing_emi
 * Recommended by Loracarol
 * Synopsis: Wally West's dad is abusive. Mostly psychologically and emotionally, but because he never hits Wally, Wally doesn't think it is abuse. The team finds out the threat. H/C, Mostly gen with hints of KF/Rob.
 * Trigger Warning: For abuse.

On The Safe Side by Anon
 * Recommended by jenicaaladima
 * Synopsis: The League just wants to be sure that their sidekicks are all right. Short, sweet, and hilarious.

Bird Song by Anonymous
 * Recommended by Zephyr7
 * Synopsis: Robin sings like an angel. Each member of the team hears him at different times. It's so natural he never notices when he begins to sing.
 * Comments: This was just a lovely little fill where each of the members hear Robin singing (as an Actor Allusion to Jesse McCartney) to Owl City songs. The one where Robin sang to an unconscious Batman was one of the most touching part.

Nobody's Child by Kizmet
 * Recommended by Hinn Raven
 * Synopsis: Superboy is deaged. While Young Justice looks for a cure Batman sticks Clark Kent with babysitting duties.
 * Comments: A hilarious, adorable family fic, focused around an adorable 5 year old Superboy, Superman, and Lois Lane. If you want to see someone call out Superman for his treatment of Superboy or even just see Superman and Superboy interact, this is the story you want.

Identity by Anonymous
 * Recommended by Waffled Flambe
 * Synopsis: Robin is badly injured on a mission, and his teammates are completely unprepared for Batman's response.
 * Comments: This story really highlights the close bond between the members of Young Justice and examines how much Robin is tied to his superhero identity. Oh, and you might wanna have some Kleenex on hand while reading this, heartstrings will be tugged.

Collide by La La Cat 1
 * Recommended by Hinn Raven, Just Nobody, Zephyr7
 * Synopsis: Jason Todd lands in the YJ universe, where he tries to figure out why there's a new Robin and why Bruce doesn't remember him.
 * Comments: This is a really good story, told from Jason's POV, as he tries to understand the whole concept of alternate universes. Good writing, good characters, and a really interesting plot.
 * Agreed. It really is an enjoyable and thought-provoking read. The writing is good, with a few typos, and if you've always needed some slight Bruce/Jason reconciliation, here you go.
 * Trigger warnings: Coarse language.

Fail Safes by kkizmet
 * Recommended by Naganonamy
 * Synosis: Superboy is undergoing Clone Degeneration. As he starts coming apart, the team comes together to support him.
 * Comments: This will make you cry. And it will make you smile. And the descriptions of Superboy's body failing him may make you feel a bit ill, as it leads to Real Life type consequences.
 * Gracie Geek: Agreed. This fic is gold. Pure, sad, heartwrenchingly-hard-but-captivating-to-read gold. Also incorporates an interesting take on who The Mole is.

Playing Scales by Anonymous
 * Recommended by Naganonamy, Salnax1
 * Synopsis: When Superboy is given an allowance, he has no idea what to do with it. So of course, he learns to play piano.
 * Comments: This is that story. I made dolphin noises at 3 am. This is a keeper.

Flutterbies by kingburu
 * Recomended by Marvelfan019
 * Synopsis: in a fight with Klarion the Witchboy, Wally is de-aged and the team unknowingly leaves hims with his abusive mother and father.
 * Comments: Excellent plot, wonderful characterization, and an adorable 5 year-old Wally (whats not to love?).

Because Your Freckles Dance by anonymous
 * Recommended by Loracarol
 * Synopsis: Wally dies in Robin's arms. This is not a spoiler. What the story is about is the aftermath, mostly told from Barry's POV.
 * Comments: Sweet merciful crap this is a Tear Jerker. It's mostly told from Barry's point of view as he comes across Wally and Robin, Wally dead in Robin's arms. IT's just... Seriously, I was crying. The author has a way with words that makes you feel for the characters as they [try to] come to terms with Wally's death.
 * Some Rob/KF, but not so much that this should be under the "shipping" fics.

Linchpin by Tiger Lily Roar
 * Recommended by sgtangua8
 * Synopsis: The Heroes of the world have a *BIG* problem when Robin - yes, Robin - is kidnapped from Gotham City Academy. The big deal, other than the obvious? He was Dick Grayson at the time!
 * Comments: An entertaining plot that keeps you engrossed. While there are several mispellings, it still is a good story.
 * Triggers: Abuse and course language.

Brave New World by dyaoka
 * Recommended by sgtangua8
 * Synopsis: After being shot by an energy beam, Damian Wayne is found by the Young Justice crew.
 * Comments: The author does an amazingly spot on job writing the sarcastic thoughts of Damian. The plot gets better as it goes along.

Pretty bird and it's squeal One by one by Ayries
 * Recommended by Fang Yingyu
 * Synopsis: "It's stupid. If she doesn't want to tell them, why does she want them to notice?"
 * Comments: Now I'm not really an expert on DC stuff, but I found this well browsing and decided to check it out. What I got was very well written, well researched, and actually made me tear up a bit. (In a good way.) I really hope the author writes more of this.
 * Notes: Transgender character

Try Not To Laugh by Anon
 * Recommneded by Zephyr7
 * Synopsis: The team were given orders to guard the Joker until the Justice League comes back for him. The Joker then proceeds to have a little fun by making sexual comments about Robin and Batman, infuriating Robin.
 * Comments: The anon got Joker's twisted personality well. And they captured Robin and the others' horrified and disgusted reactions perfectly. In fact, Robin isn't worried that Batman would ever do something like that to him but he was worried that his teammates would think that was the case.
 * Triggers: Disturbing imagery.

Hammurabi's Robin by Anon
 * Recommended by Zephyr7
 * Synopsis: Robin finds out where Tony Zucco, the man responsible for his parents' death, is. He goes off to get revenge, much to his teammates and Batman's distress.
 * Comments: Based on BTAS: "Robin's Reckoning". A neat incorporation of Young Justice and the animated series. The author does a great job writing the characters and the scene where Robin was dangling Zucco off a building and arguing with his teammates why Zucco shouldn't live tugged at the heartstrings, especially when you remember that Robin is just a thirteen year old kid who misses his parents.
 * Fics like this one are the whole reason WHY I read fan fiction. The raw emotion the writer is capable of putting into the characters is staggering.

Just Like Bad Wallpaper by Anonymous
 * Recommended by Gracie Geek
 * Synopsis: “Family love is messy, clinging, and of an annoying and repetitive pattern, like bad wallpaper.” The YJ team move, one by one, into Wayne Manor.
 * Comments: Short, sweet, cute and funny. Bruce's reactions were hilarious.

Family Ties by Shade's Ninde
 * Recommended by Gracie Geek
 * Synopsis: In the aftermath of "Alpha Male", the team are still holding Kaldur's omission of the truth against him when he suddenly goes missing - kidnapped by Black Manta.
 * Comments: If you're of the opinion that Kaldur needs more love, then read this. Incorporates Kaldur's parentage, his bromance with Roy and his relationships with Aquaman, Garth and Tula.

Dare Not Meet In Dreams by Anon
 * Recommended by Zephyr7
 * Synopsis: The team goes back into time, ends up in Crime Alley and stops a mugging. It wasn't anything out of the ordinary. But when they return to their world, they find that their world is unraveling and blending with other worlds.
 * Comments: The author has an amazing flow where they show sentences and paragraphs concerning the present world and the alternate universe right after, to show how one little shift was able to throw all the worlds out of control. The blending of the worlds is done with excellent writing, tone and detail. The author also does a great job incorporating the different universes . A definite recommendation to read.

Go the Distance by Anon
 * Recommended by Zephyr7
 * Synopsis: Five times someone thought Iris or Barry were Wally's parents and one time Wally honestly wished they were.
 * Comments: This is a Tear Jerker so you may need some tissues. Wally's parents are abusive and neglectful so Wally's aunt and Barry who both treat Wally more of a son than a nephew are by any other definition Wally's real parents. By the end, you just want to give Wally a hug.

In The Grave by Adoglover5
 * Recommended by ladyofthelibrary
 * Synopsis: "You might want to breathe slowly or you could simply put the gun in your mouth and pull the trigger or any way you want...You're going to die down here, Baby Flash." The Central City Rogues go farther than anyone ever thought possible. Now the Young Justice team and the Flash must race against time to save Wally before he's forced to take matters into his own hands.
 * Comments: An awesome story that is now complete. While the team, Wally, Barry and Batman may occasionally get out of character, I feel it's justified due to the situation they're in. The fic is well researched when needed and the writing is great. Numerous Tear Jerkers occur, specifically with Wally's flashbacks about his sorry excuse for a father and the team's reaction to Wally's predicament. Definitely worth a read but a word of warning: the author is a big and fairly blatant Wally/Artemis shipper so be prepared for it to come up.
 * Triggers: Child abuse, violence, coarse language, both attempted and successful suicides, disturbing imagery

The Bechdel Test by Shade's Ninde
 * Recommended by Zolavine
 * Synopsis "Five times the girls talk about things that are not boys, and one time the boys discuss the ladies in their lives."
 * Comments: Very much what it says on the tin. The conversations are delightful and I wish that canon had the time (or inclination) to show stuff like this.

Civvie by Totally Losing It
 * Recommended by ladyofthelibrary
 * Synopsis: "Wally West's kidnappers learn what it means to be on the bad side of two super-powered teams. Shameless Wally whump, because seriously? How FUN is that to say out loud?"
 * Comments: An interesting take on the kidnapping of one of the League's sidekicks given Wally is kidnapped in civilian identity by someone who wants revenge on his uncle's civilian identity. Does an interesting take on one of the potential moles and why they act the way they do and manages to bring the heroes featured into an odd little almost family. Worth reading if you have a few minutes to spare.

Blondes Really do Have More Fun by Anon
 * Recommended by Kaza999
 * Synopsis: Magical genderbending...with a twist.
 * Comments: Much Better Than It Sounds. Everyone is in character and the writing is superb. It's a bit long, though

Brand New Hurt by 67chevyImpala
 * Recommended by ladyofthelibrary
 * Synopsis: Kid Flash's family problems follow him to Mount Justice. Bruises the mask doesn't cover and injuries that can't be explained away by missions catch Robin's eye.
 * Comments: While obviously AU since in the show Wally has Good Parents while in this story his mother is dead and his father is a real S.O.B., this story is well written and very touching...not to mention we get to see protective Daddybats dealing with Mr. West. A good example of a story focused on the relationship between the Flash, Kid Flash, Batman and Robin.

In Case of Emergency by deranged black kitten of doom
 * Recommended by PitViperOfDoom, Zephyr7, eruFUN
 * Synopsis: It had started as a joke, contingency plans made for various hypothetical circumstances, but then the world falls under mind-control, their mentors turning against them, and those rules made up in jest become something to survive by.
 * Comments: I honestly can't think of anything negative to say about this fic. The characterization is spot-on, it's well-written, exciting, suspenseful, and even emotional and heartwrenching at certain points. I'm sure everyone will want to give Dick a hug when Roy and Wally find him about a third of the way through. It is a bit long for a oneshot (over 50,000 words), so make sure you read this when you have way too much time on your hands.
 * What are you doing right now? Stop it and read this. Go on, do it. Don't ask why. It's the length of a novella, so read it in chunks if you want. (You won't want to.) This is one of the most well-thought-out, intelligent, perfectly characterized things. Not fanfics, just things. It has the ring of well-researched science fiction, and every single element has the air of someone who really knows what they're talking about. Just... just go. Read it now. Don't worry about the recommendations.
 * Gracie Geek - Holy crap read this read this now. This ate up two entire days which I'd promised myself I'd dedicate to homework but I can't bring myself to dislike this fic for it. It had me on the edge of my seat the entire time, right up to the last sentence, even. I admit, I wish I'd seen more of the rest of the YJ Team, but nevertheless.

Making the Grade by LaLaCat1
 * Recommended by PitViperOfDoom
 * Synopsis: Sometimes even Dick can miss the warning signs. Sometimes not everyone can be trusted.
 * Comments: The writing is excellent, everyone is in-character, and this fic is one of the frankly too few instances of this certain issue being portrayed both seriously and realistically. Also contains Bruce being awesome.
 * Warning: Molestation.

A lifetime away by Anon
 * Recommended by The Violent Tomboy
 * Synopsis: Robin and Superboy find themselves trapped in another dimension with no way back, so they build themselves a new life on this new world.
 * Comments: It's amazing what the two of them do once they accept that there's no way back home.  It's hard to explain how awesome this all is, not to mention full of Continuity Porn from all sorts of different canons.

That's As Many As Four Tens by Anonymous
 * Recommended by Gosurori Otaku
 * Synopsis: Superboy gets brushed off by Superman one too many times, and decides to do something that Superman would never, ever do. Something that only Superman's greatest enemy had the balls to do.
 * Comments: To say much more would ruin the surprise, but Superboy's thought process is utterly brilliant.

Sacred by Anon
 * Recommended by The Violent Tomboy
 * Synopsis: Zoom, impersonating the Flash, sneaks into Wally's room every night and sexually assaults him. Needless to say, things get very strained between Wally and the real Barry Allen, who has no idea what's going on.
 * Comments: Oh god. It's downright heartbreaking what Wally's going through at the hands of who he thinks is his beloved uncle, and how he feels that he can't tell anyone. And you can tell how much Barry really worries about his nephew and wants to help, but, well, it's not like Wally can turn to him for it.

Getting There Is Only Half The Fun by Scotty1609
 * Recommended by Reuvas
 * Synopsis Roy, Wally, and Dick all go on a camping trip in the woods... until things get out of hand.
 * Comments: This is one of those good old friendship adventure stories about surviving against the elements and an implacable mother nature. They're all wonderfully in character, the premise is interesting, and executed well, the writing is engaging, and the story is suspensful. And... it even makes you feel. Roy fans will love this. Also, probably the best animal!OC ever.

Hero by anon
 * Recommended by The Violent Tomboy
 * Synopsis: 5 times Superboy was caught wearing the other mentor's costumes, and one time he wasn't...at least that's how it started out...
 * Comments: What started out as a simple fill from a request that wanted Superboy trying on other hero's costumes has spiraled into an epic growing-of-age story for him. It's amazing to see him grow and accept himself into becoming his own person, and amusing how he holds Clark Kent in such a positive light while not knowing the man is actually Superman.
 * YMMV on this one. The first few parts are fine, but once the plot kicks in the ooc-ness of quite a few characters starts to jar because it no longer has the buffer of humor behind it. Approach with caution.
 * YMMV on the YMMV. As in all fic, there is some level of OOC-ness, and some of it is due to the fact that the story diverges quickly from canon (having been started in May). However there's an early incidence of humorless OOC-ness which isn't so much humorless OOC-ness as much as it is plot.

A Good Plan by Anon
 * Recommended by Zephyr7
 * Synopsis: In a single day, Bruce Wayne lost everything. Again. Dick Grayson and Alfred Pennyworth are dead. Superman puts Young Justice (minus Robin) on suicide watch who don't know that Bruce Wayne is Batman and that Robin is dead.
 * Comments: This was just an amazing story of Bruce interacting with the rest of the team, particularly as a person and not as the Batman.

Ready for This by Anon
 * Recommended by Zephyr7
 * Synopsis: "When other kids his age are playing with GI Joes and Matchbox cars, Dick Grayson is polishing Batarangs and sneaking his dad's cable launcher out into the yard to scale trees with."
 * Comments: Robin was just plain adorable here and his interactions with Batman are doubly so. The image of Robin hiding behind Batman's cape when he first meets Superman is perhaps the most cutest thing ever.

Untitled by Jayeinacross
 * Recommended by ranmouri
 * Synopsis: "Kara comes to meet her new family member and finds out that Clark doesn’t talk to Conner. Kara disapproves and decides to set Clark straight." Based on a prompt from the anon meme.

snakeskin (hollow shapes) by kittu9
 * Recommended by Lavanya Six
 * Synopsis: Paula Crock fell off a roof and came home six years later. She does not allow herself the luxury of illusions.
 * Comments: A wonderful introspective piece relating how Paula came to quit the business, and her tenuous relationship with her remaining daughter, Artemis.

By Any Other Name by Anon
 * Recommended by anarden
 * Synopsis: After the Justice League's hideouts are compromised and the Team has to stay away, Batman leaves Superboy in charge of Lois Lane, which of course, has nothing to do with the fact that she personally knows Superman.
 * Comments: A funny and touching good story in which Lois, no doubt this being Batman's intention, calls out on Clark for ignoring Superboy, and even manages to help on their relationship.

Roy Harper's Boobs by mullerornis
 * Recommended by Pteranosatan
 * Synopsis: Dick Grayson finds that his friend Red Arrow is actually a Male-To-Female Transexual, and tries to help.
 * Pairings: Nightwing/Red Arrow,.
 * Comments: Pure Crack Fic insanity.

Crossover Fics
And Superboy Makes Three by Anon
 * Recommended by The Violent Tomboy
 * Synopsis: A crossover with the Marvel-verse, pre-Bereft. Captain America, appalled at Superman's treatment of Superboy, decides to adopt the kid.
 * Comments: It's genuinely heartwarming how Steve really cares about Superboy and wants the kid to be happy. Warning for yaoi-haters, Steve is in a fully committed relationship with Tony Stark, but it's obvious through the writing how much they love each other. Also, Tony Snark is still in full-force, enjoying trolling the hell out of the Justice League and Nick Fury.
 * My god, seconded so hard. Several people obsessively stalk that page waiting for updates, self included. If you read ANYTHING on this page, read this. I personally HATE crossovers, but this one doesn't even feel like a crossover. It feels like canon. It should be canon.
 * Page to be filled here.

Kalchie and especially its sequel Out In The World by thingamawhatsit.
 * Recommended by Naganonamy
 * Synopsis: The first is an adorable crossover get-together story, the second is a prime example of the Coming Out Story done right.
 * Pairing: Kaldur/Richie or Aqualad/Gear
 * Comments: You need to be familiar with Static Shock, because Richie's the POV character and half of it takes place in Dakota, but for fans of both shows it's fantastic.

The Last Son of Tomorrow by ''rgm0005
 * Recommended by SAMAS
 * Synopsis: A hot young inventor has started making big waves in Metropolis, pushing medicine and technology by leaps and bounds, and even gaining the public support of Superman himself. But this brilliant young man, named Terry McGinnis, has a few dark secrets of his own, secrets that could decide the fate of two worlds...
 * Comments: Very well written and astonishingly thought out story. Every action and decision makes perfect sense.

Young Justice: Red X by ''Hexalys
 * Recommended by Rogueristylover
 * Synopsis: Robin, leader of the Teen Titans, wakes up in a world not unlike his own. Deciding to continue down the path of a hero, he takes up an old alias and leads a new team, Young Justice. As Red X, he starts to make a name for himself, as well as new enemies.
 * Comments: The story is a little strange, given that it Red X comes from a AU Teen Titans, but everything is explained in story well, and the presence of X quickly derails everything, creating a new and interesting Mythos that still feels like it could fit within the YJ cannon, especially as the show has been getting Darker.

Shipping Fics
Such Vast Deserts We Cross by mekosuchinae.
 * Recommended by Ayries
 * Synopsis: M'gann turns matchmaker for Wally and Dick, but nothing plays out quite like she expects it to. (Superboy/M'gann)

 * Recommended by Agent Cyan

 * Comments: The moments between Kaldur and Ariel are very sweet, especially when they grow up and learn their differences are more complementary than anything else.

 * Recommended by marvelfan019
 * Synopsis: Wally decides he wants to go on a date with Artemis, but takes a different tack than expected.
 * Pairing: Spitfire aka Kid Flash/Artemis

Further Denial by Satellites on Parade
 * Recommended by onemillionpicarats
 * Synopsis: Wally wants to make it especially clear that he does not miss or feel betrayed by Artemis when she goes over to the League of Shadows.
 * Pairing: Wally/Artemis.
 * Comments: I was snorting all the way through this, and then going "awww" all the way through this, and then wanting to punch Wally all the way through this, and then loving everybody all the way through this! Leave it to SUPERBOY, of all people, to be the one to get through to him. Really, really funny and quite sweet. Even if you don't like the pairing, there's something in there for everyone.

Here Kitty Kitty by edwestwickfan1
 * Recommended by Gracie Geek
 * Synopsis: It's not coincidence when a small, orange cat turns up at Mt. Justice just when Wally goes missing. Somehow, Artemis gets lumbered with cat-sitting.
 * Pairing: Wally/Artemis
 * Comments: Better Than It Sounds, and the quality picks up after the first chapter. It's lighthearted, funny and cute. A definite read if you want some believable Spitfire fluff.

The Scientific Method by Satellites on Parade
 * Recommended by onemillionpicarats
 * Synopsis: Wally realizes that he might like Artemis more than he thought he did. He freaks out and runs to Superboy for girl advice.
 * Pairing: Wally/Artemis
 * Comments: Somehow, Wally being a Dogged Nice Guy to Artemis's Defrosting Ice Queen is way cuter than it sounds. Plus, it makes bacteria look romantic.

Cat in the Cave by Destiny919
 * Recommended by gravedancer121
 * Synopsis: Wally finds a mysterious cat on the beach. Except she's not so mysterious - she's Artemis.
 * Pairing: Wally/Artemis

Midnight Days by shadowinthedark16
 * Recommended by ladyofthelibrary
 * Synopsis: "She's missing," Batman says. He shakes his head, pulling away from them. And from the looks on their faces—his friends, his mentor—he knows they're telling the truth.
 * Pairing: Wally/Artemis
 * Comments: Well written but features some of the darkest Artemis torture I've ever read. Quite frankly it's gut wrenching to see just how badly broken the story's events leave Artemis but this story is definitely worth your time.
 * Triggers: Torture and some language.

Genius Denied by Katty008
 * Recommended by: Devs Haruhix
 * Synopsis: Until he got superspeed, Wally was picked on for being in special ed. When he got his powers, suddenly he didn't have to be in special ed and no one had to know he was anything less than a genius. Still, he was always afraid someone would find out. And he really didn't want that someone to be Robin if it meant he might face rejection again.
 * Pairing: KF/Robin
 * Comments: I cried. I cry just trying to tell people about this fic. It's wonderful, but that's awful because you feel every blow to Wally's emotions, but it finishes off sweetly so all is well.
 * Triggers: "Retard" is thrown around a couple times in reference to the teasing and negativity Wally has faced and fears.

You and I, Right or Wrong by chalantness
 * Recommended by Gracie Geek
 * Synopsis: "This changes nothing." He narrows his eyes from behind his glasses and hopes he sounds as convincing as he needs to be. But she just tilts her head, amused. "Wrong again, Sidekick. This changes everything."
 * Pairings: Mainly Roy/Jade. Also includes GA/BC.
 * Comments: What I love about this fic is how it shows Roy and Jade's relationship growing in a realistic and healthy way. A definite read if you love this pairing.

crackerjacks by Adreus
 * Recommended by Oddric
 * Synopsis: We could totally run away and start a circus together.
 * Pairings: Robin/Zatanna
 * Comments: Short, sweet, intelligent, and funny. Balances the fluff with those communal daydreams we all had as kids. Sweet enough that you'll get cavities, but doesn't go over the top - a rare thing in fanfiction.
