General Fics

Stories focused on the family and the friendly relationships of the cast. Plot-focused stories or light day-in-the-life stories. Pretty much anything that isn't focused on romance.

Goodness by Blue Green Scene.

• Recommended by Dracobolt
• Synopsis: Felix muses on the dissonance between Saturos and Menardi's motives and their actions in carrying them out. As the summary puts it, "Saturos and Menardi left pain and misery in their wake, and it was hard to remember sometimes that 'good' was not the same thing as 'nice'."

Garet's Crack Stories by Joker's Specter.

• Recommended by Dracobolt
• Synopsis: A collection of short humor stories featuring the cast of Golden Sun. The stories are framed by the light plot that Garet is entertaining the children of Vale with his tales. Stories at the time of posting include The Wise One's Child, I Was A Teenage Necromancer, Hama Ruins Everything, and Private Investigator Sheba and the Case of the Missing Babydaddy.

Golden Sun Defining Moment by xT-Zealot
