* This guy/girl has written a handful of fics for Toy Story. Simply put, they all read like scenes from the movies.

* Recommended by Dogman15

* Synopsis: Just whose cameras were those that the toys used to blind the Prospector? And what happened when that family developed their film? Follows a Jessie doll and a young man named Jake and their time together.

* Comments: Incredibly interesting, well-written story that explores the consequences of humans discovering the secret of toy animation. Has a good bit of length to it, and looks like it's picking up pace. Highly recommended.

Line 35:

** Seconded by [[Digi Flame]]. Short and sweet. It's hard not to get pulled into the worry that the toys feel. It might as well be canon it captures that sort of spirit of it so well.

* Synopsis: After the events of the movie, Lotso manages to get himself off of the truck, but, by mistake, ends up in the hands of another child. But not just any child. This story follows his journey as he discovers that there just might be some love left in the cracks within his heart of stone.

* Comments: As with any story starring Lotso, expect quite a bit of angst. There is also some prime tear jerker near the end.

** The movie didn't make me cry. This fanfiction did.

* Synopsis: Andy figures out who wrote him the note at the end of the 3rd movie, and asks if he can borrow Woody from Bonnie for one day.

* Comments: To me this felt so real, like a scene from the movie. The relationship between Andy and Woody is so well captured, and it made me cry from about half way through. The author's other gen fics are also worth looking through.

* Recommended by [[Ka Blamoid 4 Life]]

* Recommended by Ka Blamoid 4 Life

* Pairing(s): Woody/Dolly

* Synopsis: Set after the events of ''Toy Story 3'', Andy's toys are enjoying their new life with Bonnie and her toys...but Woody still misses Bo Peep. During one of Bonnie's playtimes, Bonnie "kisses" Woody and Dolly together, and Woody feels like he's cheated on Bo. But a chain of events unfolds that brings Woody and Dolly closer together.

* Comments: Very sweet, touching and well-written. There's some great characterization here, especially for Woody (his pain over losing Bo is very well portrayed) and Dolly (without spoiling anything, she is given a bit of backstory).

** [[Tropers/Kriegsmesser|Kriegsmesser]]: Short, but very good. It doesn't drag on needlessly.

Line 68:

* Synopsis: Takes place after the events of ''Toy Story 3'', Bonnie decides that Woody and Buzz were made for each other, and should never be apart. In time, they come to accept it too.

* Comments: Simple, sweet, and well-written. This one-shot that gives a interesting take on how Buzz and Woody could convincingly get together. And Bonnie is adorable, as always. There are also a few cute moments between some of the other characters as well.

* Recommended by lettergirlmj

* Pairing(s): Woody/Buzz

* Synopsis: Sheriff Woody has been secretly meeting Mrs. Nesbit for tea once or twice a week. One day they take the play-acting a little too far.

* Comments: I. I don't even know what to say about this fic. It's amazing. The characterization is spot-on. One reviewer described it as "charming and moving and, shockingly, kind of sexy." I don't really think I can describe it better.

"[http://snooter.livejournal.com/1552.html#cutid1 Under the Table and Dreaming]" by snooter (WARNING: Slight sexual business at the end of part one, and explicit sex in part two. Rated NC-17, so use caution)

* Recommended by zydratebrat13 and Igknighted

* Pairing(s): Andy/Sid

* Synopsis: Andy met Sid when he was four years old, and while some things change, a lot of things stay the same.

* Comments: This is really so well written. The dynamic between the boys is believable, the characterization is wonderful, and the story manages to never get too sappy or over-dramatic, while managing to be a great read. It might even make you have flashbacks, to playing games with your toys and neighbors, feeling the pangs of a first crush, and remembering your first real kiss.

** Seconded. I've read this a few times already and I can't get over how realistic it is. I can't say anything else because I'd just be repeating what's written in the comments. - slashhearts

** Also second. Definitely one of the better coming of age stories in the Toy Story fandom. It handles their lives with the kind of slice of life realism that clenches your heart the same way the movies did, and along the way you learn not just about the hardships of devoting yourself to another person, but life in general. More amazing is how the author brings in a slew of character, [[OCs]] and Canon alike, that each stand up as distinctive individuals that manage to make you care about each and every one.

* Be sure to read the sequels [http://snooter.livejournal.com/2366.html To the Dogs or Whoever] set three years after "Under the Table" (also rated NC-17) and [http://snooter.livejournal.com/3245.html The Second Most Important Person in the World] Which bravely follows Andy and Sid through the next forty years of their life and ends in a rather heart moving way. (Rated R)

** An extra short that continues immediately after the events of the first is now up.

* Pairing: Woody/Jessie with slight Woody/Buzz.

* Synopsis: Woody spends too much time reading. One-shot. Major ~~WoodyxJessie~~. Hinted ~~BuzzxWoody~~.

* Synopsis: Woody spends too much time reading. One-shot. Major Woody x Jessie. Hinted Buzz x Woody.

* Comments: It's a short, cute little fluff fic that reaches the mild side of [[Tastes Like Diabetes]]. However despite its child friendly rating [[Freud Was Right]], and due to [[Something Else Also Rises|one line]], it can be seen as sexual. Still it's worth the read even if you aren't a Woody/Jessie fan. It's not OOC, it's well written, and not complicated. Not that many errors either.

Line 95:

* Pairing(s): Woody/Jessie, one-sided Buzz/Woody.

* Synopsis: Woody braids Jessie's hair. One-shot. ~~[[Woodyx~~ Jessie]], one-sided ~~[[Buzzx~~ Woody]] hints.

* Synopsis: Woody braids Jessie's hair. One-shot. Woody x Jessie, one-sided Buzz x Woody hints.

* Comments: It's an endearing story. Not one that you'd typically see in a fanfic, especially a ''[[Toy Story]]'' one. Woody/Jessie is surprisingly rare, and this story (along with others by this author) capture the characters quite well. While it can be a bit creepy to people, I find it cute.
