Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


These are recommendations made by Tropers for The Legend of Korra fanfics, all of which have to be signed to stay on the page.

  • Ongoing: The fic is being updated on a regular basis or has received an update after a significant absence.
  • Dormant: The fic has not been updated in a fairly long time (several months to a year or more) but the author has not pronounced it dead.

Authors and Websites

bored-to-smithereens

  • Recommended by: Agent Cyan
  • Synopsis: An up and coming tumblr author who primarily focuses on Bolin/Korra oneshots. Definitely worth a look-see; her stories incorporate well-written emotion and dialogue that can leave you on the verge of tears.

Hybridization series, by Gigabomb

  • Recommended by: Deist Zealot
  • Synopsis: A story about botany in which absolutely nothing grows. In which Katara refuses to compromise her ideals, Sokka admits that mistakes were made, and four members of the Red Lotus are given a future that is not entirely bereft of hope.
  • Status: A Seed is Planted, One Day in Early Spring is a one-shot; Twelve Years Until the Harvest is ongoing.
  • Comments: This What If...? series—alternately just called Hybridization—plays heavily on the Anti-Villain status of the Red Lotus and some Fridge Horror concerning their individual cells. In short: they're effectively sentenced to community service, and the author makes it work.
