Nightmarefics is a Kirby Fanfic written by the troper Arbiterai Knight.
The fic is episodic in nature, like Kirby: Right Back at Ya!, the canon it originates from, and is consisted of short one-shots with little continuity in between them. Most chapters center around Nightmare, his organization, and the various demon beasts working under him. It is also notable for being one of the few fics that explore Nightmare's unseen personality.
The story used to be found on FanFiction.net, but it was unexpectedly deleted at one point. An archived version can be found [web.archive.org/web/20120423123321/fanfiction.net/s/7997479/1/Nightmarefics here].
