Proof that [[Sturgeon's Law|the remaining 10% is worth dying for]] here:
These are recommendations made by [[Troper|Tropers]] for ''[[
Do warn when a fanfic may head into [[Everyone Is Gay|homosexual]] or [[Better Than Canon|non-canon]] territory. Some people just don't like it, and as we all know, [[Shipping]] is [[Serious Business]].
Line 65:
*** [[User:Shay Guy]]: Killing is ''hard''. Ask any soldier. Even if S.L.A. Marshall did get his figures off, there's a lot of truth to it. Plus Will was explicitly described as the guy who takes bugs outside instead of stepping on them.
*** [[User:Airship Canon]]: I have to agree with Lanceavalon- the [[Wangst]] from Will is pretty annoying. I honestly think the guy is a worse version of [[Tales of the Abyss|Luke Fon Fabre]], and Luke is bad enough.
*** [[User:TG Geko]]: I couldn't stand this one. The earth references are just plain bad. What kind of person, who is trying to keep their origin a secret, would make so many references? They feel bulky, unfunny, and make me feel the characters are idiots. I threw my hands up and said "Thats it! No more!" when the female protagonist made a scooby-doo, then a [[
*** [[User:banjo 2 E]]: I liked this one for the most part. Will was pretty well defined as being a coward, and learning how to cope with being forced into combat played a big role in his character development. However, {{spoiler|the death of Ellie}} wasn't really necessary, and the ending was, for me, a massive wall-banger: {{spoiler|[[Peggy Sue]]!Yggdrasil was actually Good!Yggdrasil ''all along'', and he went back to Earth ''just so he could build an Otherworldly Gate for Will and the Aselians to visit each other''}}. In fact, it turns out that ''the entire plot'' {{spoiler|was a [[Stable Time Loop]] resolving itself}}, meaning all of the problems caused by and inflicted on Will and Ellie happened, essentially, for ''no reason at all''. The one good thing about the ending is that it is all [[Nightmare Fuel Station Attendant|the Wonder Chef's]] fault given {{spoiler|his absolute power over transit between realities}}, and he is very, ''very'' much portrayed as being A) [[It Amused Me|bored/insane]] and/or B) [[True Neutral|a force of nature like the Summon Spirits, and therefore concerned primarily with keeping balance and only peripherally, if at all, with fairness.]]
Line 98:
* Recommended by Gatekeeper827
* ''Synopsis'': AU Cruxis! Lloyd. Lloyd has been raised in Cruxis his entire life but it takes a trip to a Forcystus's human ranch to realize exactly what Cruxis is. Forcystus and Lloyd friendship fic.
* ''Comments'': A well written "What if" fic. Lloyd manages to stay in character (read: believable) despite the role reversal and the fact that he has to put up with [[What the Hell, Townspeople?|a lot of shit]] from [[Fantastic Racism|all sides]]. The grammar isn't perfect, but still well worth a read.
