Pathologic/Fanfic Recs

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Proof that the remaining 10% is worth locking yourself in a quarantined town and desperately trying to cure a logic-defying plague as you break down into insanity.

These are recommendations made by Tropers for Pathologic, all of which have been signed. After a few samples, you will be able to judge whether you might be interested in the 'fic, based on who recommended it. No-name recommendations will be Zapped (wiki). Discussion of the recommendation is welcome on the discussion page. As such discussion is important, do remember to add the discussion page to the watchlist, if need be.

Do warn when a fanfic may head into romantic or non-canon territory. Some people just don't like it, and as we all know, Shipping is Serious Business.


Utterly Pathologic by My_Friend

  • Recommended by Fool
  • Synopsis: An amusing, lighthearted take on the end of the game. It seems to be a combination of all three endings; nobody dies, and the town is cured without the need for a sacrifice, apparently. Crack Ships abound.
  • Pairings: Daniel/Klara, implied Artemiy/Aglaja
  • Comments: I didn't think that comedy could be done in Pathologic's setting, but this comic managed it. The interactions between the three healers are particularly humorous. If you've been having trouble sleeping after finishing the game, this could be a good remedy.
