''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5029771/1/A_Cluster_of_Stars A Cluster of Stars]'', by RobDaZombie
* Recommended by Sackett.
* Recommendation seconded by the Rena The Archmage. Great story, and I follow it religiously.
* Recommendation thirded by Spiri Tsunami, who had already been following the author after reading a ''[[Negima]]''/''[[Love Hina]]'' crossover he did.
* Recommendation fourthed by Bunny Hopper, who came to this page solely to recommend this if it wasn't already up.
* ''Synopsis'': A series of short stories focusing on the humor found in daily life for the cast. [[Original Flavor]].
** It's starting to lose it, however. Characters are starting to fall [[Out of Character]], or [[Flanderization|falling too far into their stereotypes or into one minor aspect of their personality]]. Still, it's better than most romance fics, but there needs to be more general fics.
 
''[[Falling Stars]]'' by [[Tastychainsaws]]
* Recommended by Hanz.
* ''Synopsis'': A [[Crossover]] between ''[[Lucky Star]]'' and ''[[Fallout 3]]'', with Konata in the role of The Lone Wanderer. Kagami and Tsukasa follow along, with other characters taking the place of other Fallout characters (the author provides a list of what character will represent who in his page). The story covers the game all the way up to Broken Steel, with some mentions to the DLC (notably, Tsukasa getting dragged off to Point Lookout).
Line 37 ⟶ 34:
* Recommended by andyjay729.
* ''Synopsis'': A look at the series through Miyuki's eyes, told largely through [[Inner Monologue]]. But as per the title, Miyuki Takara here is not the Miyuki we know and love. She's actually a <s> borderline</s> demented lunatic, an utter sociopath, guttermouthed, and hates the rest of the cast (with the exception of her longtime friend Minami) to the point where one wonders if Akira is a distant relative of hers (hey, they both have pink hair). {{spoiler|And she and Minami are both expert gamers; perhaps rivaling Konata. Minami isn't as crass, but she apparently reads some doujins that even [[Squick]] out Miyuki...as well as the author.}}
* ''Comments'': [[Your Mileage May Vary]] of course as to whether this is all a good decision, but it's certainly an...interesting look at the show. And as you can see, this is also from the same screwed-up author as ''Falling Stars'' above (he gives you some glimpse as to what's going on in his head on his FF.net profile).
 
''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5780603/1/Other_Worlds_Than_These Other Worlds Than These]'' by Vossago
Line 47 ⟶ 43:
 
''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5451923/1/Standing_Between_Luck_and_Oblivion Standing Between Luck and Oblivion]'' by ArmorBlade
* Recommended by MadderSky, sorathecrow.
* ''Pairing(s)'': Konata/Kagami(?), Minami/Yutaka.
* ''Synopsis'': A crossover fiction combining the characters of Lucky Star with the setting of The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion. Kagami has failed to protect the Emperor as his bodyguard, and been sent to find his son and heir Martin. On the way she runs into a small, childish looking Elf girl who appears extremely interested in helping her, and even more interested in getting her alone somewhere...
* ''Comments'': Starts off with chapters that are a little short, but soon improve into good lengths without any dip in the consistently good writing quality. The detail is excellent, with descriptions of the surroundings and clothing etc, and the characters are all completely spot on with one another. Fighting is handled very well, with genuine threats met with genuine injuries but it never gets over the top to the point where the story itself is forgotten. And though there is blood and obviously pain involved, tthe author never gets sadistic and it wont make you squeamish. Most importantly of all, its beyond fun to read. The fic puts the cast into a situation very different from anything youd usually see and its a joy to anyone who is bored with the same-old fictions. A unique, imaginative fiction well deserving of praise that is even accessible to people who have no knowledge of the Elder Scrolls universe at all.
* Like the other Troper said, chapters start short and the dialogue a little stale, but as he goes on the author seems to get more comfortable and the quality takes a leap in all areas. As of this writing, the story is already quite lengthy, weighing in at about 15 chapters, and probably not even half way through the "main" story. The casting choices, like Kagami as a warrior half-elf, Konata as a rogue, Miyuki as an archer/mage/alchemist, Akira as a assasin, etc are all perfect. While changes neccessarily have to be made to some aspects of characters to preserve the story (Konata's video game/anime references are mainly stripped away) the author does a remarkable job at keeping true to each character's "essence." As it is a "Konami" paring, the two character's relationships are naturally...[[Flanderized|expanded...]] but its only part of the bigger plot, so the [[Les Yay|fluff]] doesn't grate on the nerves too much, even coming off as funny and cute at times.
 
''[http://danbooru.donmai.us/pool/show/1711 Tsukasa vs. Miyuki]'' by tori (On [[Danbooru]], NSFW [[The Internet Is for Porn|but still Danbooru]]
Line 62 ⟶ 56:
''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6632142/1/Beyond_Friendship Beyond Friendship]'' by DoubleBoxEven
* Recommended by Mugen Kagemaru.
** Seconded by Jbstormburst. It is certainly more than what is left by the summary. Has the best characterization and progression that I've seen in any fanfic. Ever.
*** Thirded by Thanotosomega. This the best fic i have ever read it feels so true to the show you would swear it was a script for some episodes you had missed
* ''Pairing(s)'': Konata/Kagami
* ''Synopsis'': A powerful storm hits, but that won't stop Konata from trying to have some fun.
Line 69 ⟶ 61:
 
''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4219558/1/ Level Up! Love!]'' by weluvgirlswithglasses
* Recommended by Extraintrovert.
** Recommendation seconded by Sirkku Jää Keiju. As far as I know this was the first really good Konami fic and it entertained and inspired so many of people.
* ''Pairing(s)'': Konata/Kagami.
* ''Synopsis'': ''Level Up! Love!'' is the comical and emotional story of Konata's attempts to woo Kagami, using a ridiculously circuitous plan highly appropriate for the obsessive Otaku.
* ''Comments'': Even those who have an aversion to the pairing should still read it for the masterful translation of the series to text format, retaining each character's distinctive behaviors and mannerisms as well as the nature of the series' humour itself.
 
''[http://rapidshare.com/files/148212200/lonely_kagamin_eng_01-30.rar Lonely Kagamin]'' by uncredited author (doujinshi, [[Girls Love]])
* Recommended by [[User:Koveras]].
** Seconded by LO Rd. The [[Girls Love]] is kind of meh, but holy s, that's a soul-crushing depiction of loneliness if I've ever seen one.
*** Thirded by Ben Allen 52. [[Dark Fic]] indeed, but unlike so many of them, with a rather uplifting, hopeful ending. Be forewarned though - the depths of despair Konata has fallen to could very well make her fans cry with sympathy.
*** Fourthed by Videogamer 07. It's worth a read, if only for the [[Alternative Character Interpretation|interpretation]] of Konata and Kagami after their high school years.
* ''Pairing(s)'': Konata/Kagami
* ''Synopsis'': After graduating from school, Kagami became a loner, wasting her days without interacting with anyone. Then Konata enters her life again...however, Kona-chan is now a suicidally depressed introvert who can barely remember the college she's attending.
* ''Comments'': A [[Dark Fic]] recommended for its all-encompassing depressiveness. But don't worry, the ending is kinda happy.
** Your mileage may ''definitely'' vary. Some fans, including nukerjsr (really, just ask him), would call this a mess of soppy [[Wangst]] and [[Character Derailment]].
*** Regardless of your opinion on the doujin, it will most likely change your views on the series and the characters' relations, and behaviors, toward each other...dramatically.
** [https://rapidshare.com/files/1491918370/LonelyKagamin_Epilogue.zip Note that there is an Epilogue!] It's in a slightly different style, and is more fluffy than resolving, but it's apparently done by the same author and adds a little inner dialogue to it all.
 
''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4799448/1/Three_Days_Five_Steps Three Days, Five Steps]'' and its sequel ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6174918/1/Lucky_Leap Lucky Leap]'' by StaminaRose
* Recommended by Dion Shmion.
** Recommendation seconded by Omegahugger. There just isn't enough non-mainstream pairings out there, so this is a nice breath of fresh air.
** Thirded by Sirkku Jää Keiju. The descriptiveness and detail is exceptional. I just wish there was a sequel...
** Sirkku Jää Keiju says: and now there IS a sequel - looking incredibly good already.
** Stamina Rose says: Its nice to be appreciated. Just wish i could work faster...
* ''Pairing(s)'': Tsukasa/Misao
* ''Synopsis'': Misao comes to Hiiragi's for a study session. As Kagami is out at the moment, Misao meets Tsukasa instead. Fluff and an odd romance ensues.
* ''Comments'': A breath of fresh air in the not-very-diverse ''[[Lucky Star]]'' fleet. Misao and Tsukasa work remarkably well together. Well written, aside from the occasional [[Rouge Angles of Satin|your/you're flub]]. Completed.
** There is a fair amount of [[Cerebus Syndrome]] in the sequel, though it's somewhat understandable.
* Unfortunately, the author suffered from a bad case of [[Creator Backlash]], and decided to [[Dead Fic|discontinue the sequel]].
 
''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5211968/1/Lucky_Star_I_Never_Really_Thought_About_It Lucky Star: I Never Really Thought About It]'' by Jigando
Line 105 ⟶ 72:
* ''Comments'': Much like the show, loves making references to anime and video games (chapter 2 has Konata talking about a certain Water Temple Boss with a moving eye). It's very fluffy at certain points, but turns into a bit of angst in later chapters. At 27 chapters (that's excluding the [[Orphaned Series|"I've dropped the fic"]] notice at "Chapter" 28), with some humorous author's notes and guest appearances by Lucky Channel, this is a story you don't want to pass up.
 
''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5373358/1/Lucky_Star_Truth_or_Dare Lucky*Star: Truth or Dare!]'' and its sequel, ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5650738/1/Lucky_Star_Dare Lucky*Star: Dare!]'' by [[Zokusho]]
* Recommended by Sirkku Jää Keiju.
* ''Pairing(s)'': Kagami/Konata, Patty/Hiyori, Minami/Yutaka, and a surprise one.
Line 141 ⟶ 108:
* ''Comments'': [[Better Than It Sounds]]. Osric doesn't usually like [[Dark Fic]]s for a light-hearted series like ''[[Lucky Star]]'', but this one makes it work, with excellent writing that really manages to tug at the heartstrings. [[Dead Fic|Sadly hasn't been updated in quite a while now]], but what's there is a good read.
 
''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6783865/1/ The Day Everything Changed]'' by Mr. [[Fanfic Guy]]
* Recommended by CJO 123.
* ''Pairing'': Konata/Kagami
Line 154 ⟶ 121:
* ''Comments:'' Revising my earlier comments: This is much, much more than a mere shipping fic, though that ''is'' a significant part of it. What's being done in ''Stars Above'' is a real, honest-to-God ''epic'' crossover. The authors clearly understand the important themes of both series, and care deeply about both sets of characters. They're doing a great job of contrasting the two worlds, and playing the differences in interesting ways. Special mention also goes to the fight scenes, which are awesomely epic and creepy in the same way the Witch battles were in Madoka. Highly recommended!
 
''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6985585/1/ Holiday Vacation]'' by Mr. [[Fanfic Guy]]
* Recommended by CJO 123.
* ''Pairings'': Konata/Kagami, Yutaka/Minami, Tsukasa/Miyuki
