''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.''

* Recommended by Shadow Man 2
* ''Synopsis'': A game idea that revolves around Peach, Daisy, and Rosalina coming together in their own adventure. And this time, with the help of E. Gadd, they've got a new kind of power to strike back.

* Recommended by Steel Komodo
* ''Synopsis:'' [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin]]. Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy, Wario and Waluigi go on a [[Beach Episode|vacation to Walt Disney World]] to celebrate Peach's birthday. [[Villain Ball|Bowser and son]], as usual, try to spoil everything. [[Hilarity Ensues]].
Line 77:
* ''Comments'': A very twisted and hilarious take on Peach, Daisy and Rosalina that will put a smile on your face. The artwork is cute, fun and energetic with a great range of emotions. Bonus points for the use of {{spoiler|"[[The Legend of Zelda|Excuse Me Princess]]" as a drinking game}}.

* Recommended by The Otaku Ninja
* ''Synopsis'':A brand new [[Paper Mario (franchise)|Paper Mario]] game, along the vein of ''Thousand-Year Door''. Mario and Luigi accompany Peach to the land of Chronoside, but when a thieving Goomba steals Mario's hammer, the heroic plumber chases him into the Temple of the Sun. While the two of them are in there, something happens to split Chronoside in two—one world where it's always daytime, and one where it's always night...

* Recommended by: The Otaku Ninja
* Synopsis: Prequel to Super Mario 64. We all know Bowser as The Villain but what is his story? Is he evil at all? SO much happened before Mario popped up, and you'll never look at Toads, Koopas, or Peach the same ever again! COMPLETE!
* ''Comments'': Mainly inspired by [[Wicked (novel)|Wicked]] this story give us a different look at the Mario-verse, one that shows that things are not as clear-cut as you think they are.

* Recommended by: The Otaku Ninja
* Synopsis: What happened to Bowser that made him the villain so many gamers know and love? This story tells of his life before Peach and anyone else. Please note that every now and then, a chapter will be in the time after Paper Mario 2.

* Recommended by Patrobotnik
* ''Synopsis:'' Waluigi basically goes on an adventure to save Princess Daisy from a strange mechanical menace, with the help of Toadette, Petey Piranha, and Gooper Blooper.
* ''Comments'': An incredibly simple but well executed adventure fanfic that stars Waluigi and places him in the starring role, with Petey and Gooper coming along for the ride. Also has an intriguing rivalry in a Porygon-Z.

* Recommended by Blazichu
* ''Synopsis:'' After making off with one of E. Gadd's latest inventions, Bowser's acting out his latest plan to take over the Mushroom Kingdom, but this time, he's got an unprecedented ally—Luigi. It's mostly a genfic, but there are some undeniable hints of a Luigi/Daisy romance.
Line 125:
* ''Comments:'' This is not an independent [[Fanfic]], but part of the larger [[Not Safe for Work]] ''[[Roommates (2009 webcomic)|Roommates]]'' canon. ''That'' story is a [[Porn with Plot]] [[Web Comic]] about Junior and his new [[Digimon|flamedramon]] boyfriend Giancarlo Rosato who are dormitory roommates at fictional [[California University|Aubrey State University]] in California. ''TAMR'', on the other hand, is much longer, and much more detailed than the main story it's attached to. While ''TAMR'' does have ''some'' explicit adult content (and chronicles how Junior lost his virginity and entered a relationship with his first boyfriend) and mature dialogue, it is primarily an African American [[Fantasy Counterpart Culture]] [[Family Disunion]] dramedy about Junior's domestic family relationship with his father and his adult siblings, especially his brother Roy, his sister Wendy, and Roy's [[Heterosexual Life Partner]] Hanbei. It is full of [[Mythology Gag]]s relating to the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' franchise (while lacking an in-universe [[Real Life]] Mario bros. or Mushroom Kingdom), as well as a veritable tidal wave of [[Shout-Out|Shoutouts]] and [[Product Placement]]s. Most of the supporting characters are [[Petting Zoo People|other species]] from the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' series, [[Pokémon]] and [[Digimon]]. Special note goes to Lemmy Koopa, who [[Breaking the Fourth Wall|Breaks the Fourth Wall]] every chance he gets.
 
''[[Clash of the Elements]]'' by [https://web.archive.org/web/20131013013255/http://www.fanfiction.net/u/2914958/mewmaster93 mewmaster93]
* Recommended by The Mage of Fire
* ''Synopsis:'' Mario has found himself wrapped up in a quest to bring about the rebirth of the Elemental Overlord. With many allies both new and old, Mario will soon see himself being wrapped up in the mysteries of his planets that he never once knew existed.
Line 133:
''Stories focused on the romantic relationships between the cast.''
 
''[https://web.archive.org/web/20120409124131/http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2356265/1/Better_Off_Alone Better Off Alone]'' by The Great Chicken Miasma
* Recommended by Skeppio
* ''Pairings'': Vivian/Koops
Line 139:
* ''Comments'': A gripping tale that follows the events of Paper Mario 2 - The Thousand Year Door. It gives greater depth to the characters and their relationships to each other, as well as establishing an immense backstory for the Shadow Sirens and the Palace of Shadow. New elements and characters are introduced, but thanks to good writing, none of it kicks canon to the sideline. A finely woven plot leaves no loose threads and truly shows off the author's skill as a writer. Possibly the first fanfic to introduce Vivian/Koops (dubbed ShadowShellShipping) as a viable pairing. 10/10 from Skeppio. Now has [[Better Off Alone|its own page.]]

* Recommended by Sayacha
* ''Pairings'': Bowser/Peach, Luigi/Daisy, Kamek/Kammy
* ''Synopsis'': With their dad's birthday less than a week away, the Koopalings decide to give him the thing he wants the most: the chance to spend it with Princess Peach. To Peach's immense surprise, instead of being the usual kidnapping deal, it ends up making her question everything she's ever thought of Bowser and the Darklands in general.
* ''Comments'': Set right after ''Thousand-Year Door'', and certainly one of the best [[Super Mario Bros.]] fanfics out there. Not only does Razzi keep Bowser in character as the hilarious yet still tyrannical king we all know and love, she also manages to introduce a whole new side of him and a perfectly believable way for Peach to start returning his affections. There's also a huge amount of detail paid to...well, just about everything. The Koopalings, for example, are wonderfully fleshed out, as are Kamek and Kammy - and it even manages to introduce a "side-quest" where Mario and Luigi once again save the day from a minor villain. However, one of the highest points in this fic comes from the analysis of the Peach/Mario pairing, one that manages to shed good light on Bowser/Peach ''without'' turning Mario into a [[TheRomantic False PaoloLead]]. Truly a wonderful fic, and kind of surprising that it wasn't already on this list.

Line 157:
* ''Comments'': Extremely cute, light hearted comics filled with silly humor. The personalities given to all of the characters are the biggest draw, all of them being charming or amusing in some way. A few curse words here and there, but otherwise very innocent, cartoony and cute.
