Authors and Websites
Anything by Davner
- Recommended by Will Z
- Comments: One of the more interesting ones is Slayers Faces, about an interesting look at an unlikely duo. It wasn't meant to be a ship to upset the fans - it was more an experiment on HOW different pairings could or couldn't work. It goes on for a sequel or two and keeps it entertaining throughout.
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.
Slayers Reflect, Chaos, and Rebirth trilogy by Twoflower
- Recommended by Unknown Troper
- Synopsis:
- Comments: The Slayers Reflect, Chaos, and Rebirth trilogy is amazingly good. It's by Twoflower, the same person who did Sailor Nothing, which might give you some idea of the quality. The characterization is perfect, and the plot starts out simple but quickly becomes more complex.
- Has its own trope page.
Revolutionary Girl Amelia by ryoko11
- Recommended by fortune Cookie
- Synopsis: the slayers cast take over the roles of the Revolutionary Girl Untena characters. Amelia as the titular Utena and Zelgadis as the rosebride. He is not amused.
Shards of Chaos by Dust Traveller
- Recommended by Seven Of Diamonds
- Synopsis: An epic next generation fic taking place after Slayers Try, featuring Lina's daughter Mina falling in love with Gaav. Permanent hiatus, but worth it.
- Comments:
Slayers Knightfall Assassins and Shadows by Tom the Mighty
- Synopsis: Lina and Gourry thought it was just going to be a vacation visiting Lina's family,but disturbing visions and unspeakable tragedy draw the Demon Slayers once more into chaos and death. Rated for Violence, Language, Crude Humor and some lime scented febreez
- Comments: The plot takes a turn to the grim dark side of the non-cannon-but-plausible. Yet despite the world going to hell in a hand-basket(case), the characters you know and love, and xellos, are still the characters you know and love, and xellos.
Nightmares in the Apocalypse by Lina Friend
- Recommended by Endless D

Of Life and Lemonade by J. Rhaye
- Recommended by: Queen BEAUTY
- Synopsis: Alternate Universe set in modern-day southern California (in which the kingdom of Saillune and other locales are now regular towns and cities) centered around the lives and complex relationship between Amelia, now the daughter of an influential lawyer (Phil) and a law student, and Zelgadis, now a police detective. Suspense and drama ensue when Amelia, her father, and her sister begin getting threats from an unknown source, eventually spiraling into something even more dangerous. Traditional pairings and the like. On hiatus, but might be picked up again soon.
