r/AO3recommendations

I will read almost any fandom or original work as long as it's a character x reader. Basically I need a fic with the typical misunderstood bad boy/criminal/bully that's slowly getting reformed through love but I need there to be a lot of intimacy and tension, I cannot stress enough how bad I need the tension, and preferably smut but not too cliche, something well written, that's been done with love. Think something like in the videogame Bully when the main character helps out the nerdy girl he doesn't like but ends up making out with her anyways except I need them to fall in love. But the bad boy can't be too bad, you know? Lovable bad, with some reliability. Please, I know there's tons of these out there but I just can't seem to find them

Please recommend me some mafia fics!! I do prefer original work/no fandom but I am open to fandoms if I don’t need to know much about the actual fandom. Smut and dark romance is okay! TYIA.

I neeed somthing new to read I don’t care if it’s short or long would prefer if it was a bit longer!
I want something that has:
Dark themes / angst
Obsession or possessive Bakugou
Smut is fine (preferably explicit)
Hero vs villain dynamic
Happy ending (preferred)
I’m open to anything as long as it fits that vibe ,dark, intense, emotional,so doesn’t have to be this exact thing!
Only thing I’ve read so far with this vibe would be doppelgängers by wake to sanity
If you know any good AO3 fics or tags to search, please drop them 🙏thanks in advance 😌

hello! i'd love some good power bottom fics, especially if the bottom is a brat and the other person can barely keep up. please send anything you have! self recs welcomed as well. smut or no smut, optional. any fandom is welcome.
thank you, my lovelies!

I am open to all and any kind of fics or au (and am present in most mainstream fandoms) cuz I have a 6 hr long drive w family and I NEED a fic to read.

Pls recommend me something 🙏

There’s this story I read years ago before I had an actual ao3 account I just saved the tab 😭. From what I can remember the story starts off with a tragedy where or main girl (OC) and her mother get attacked in their village by orcs which are seen to be dangerous brutes and her home is always going to war with them. And in this one battle her mom gets murderer by an orc and an orc [GRAPHIC] (g)rapes the main girl and basically leaves her internally broken which makes it to where she can’t have kids. And despite how pretty she is she’s basically outcasted for the fact of what happened to her and that she can’t have kids anymore. And so she basically just goes about her life alone just day by day motions hating/fearing orcs cause of all she lost due to the one that violated her and murdered her mother.

This is where it gets fuzzy for me, but years later I think she ends up saving one and like housing him, and I think he was considered to be on the smaller side for orcs so not as threatening to her and since she saves his life he has a begrudging acceptance for her which basically means while he stays in her home and heals he in debt to her which he HATES. But she refuses to put up with his attitude cause she doesn’t like him either.

But story progressed and they start to become amicable with each other until they’re like you’re not that bad. She eventually opens up on her past and he’s like where actually pretty alike because it turns out his leader is this predator like guy that constantly uses his strength over the orc we know and ‘takes advantage’ of him too. And it clicks for him that he loves her and they do ‘it’ but he leaves the next day and she’s heartbroken about it cause it seemed like he only wanted one thing but it turns out he actually left to kill his leader so that he can never come after him when he goes back to her and inadvertently keeping her safe as well.

There was a second story the author made that I never got to read cause I accidentally closed the tab and wiped my history. But what little of it that I did see the girl decides she done with the town she grew up in and she’s moving to the one next over to open up her own tavern and to start fresh after she thinks the orc she took care of ditched her. And the orc that left comes back to find her stuff gone but he remembers her scent I think and tracks her down?? And that’s all I got.

One scene I vividly remember is that our orc cuts this guys fingers off cause he touched our main girl inappropriately while she was at work and left them in a bag on her table. If anyone can link this story or literally anything similar I’m in your debt😭😭😭

continually thirsting for dragon fics, and finding this stuff is damn near impossible sometimes, so i'm throwing this ask to the reddit gods.
fandom doesn't matter, as long as:
-one half of the pairing is a dragon, other is a human/humanoid/human-adjacent
-the dragon does not have any alternate forms, stays a dragon the whole time
-dragon with FOUR legs, wings, not anthro in the least

Slowburn would be greatly appreciated but aren't required, really i just need something that's outside the typical mean dommy male monster dynamic. with dragons.

Looking for SasuSaku fic recommendations.

I prefer reading completed works but if the work is almost finished and still on going I really don't mind.

Im struggling to find good fanfiction.

My top favourites are covenant by starry0_o on AO3

And A twist in time by wolf08 on AO3

Please let me know if you know of any masterlists and stuff that has sasusaku fanfic I can read. I've already gone through the red converse girls' tumblr bc she has sasusaku masterlists and I've read the fics she has uploaded on there.

PS. There's a trope im also looking for, if any of you have come across it in sasusaku id be so interested, I just have no clue how to filter it and find it.

Basically sasuke or sakura (but preferably sasuke) gets stuck in the modern world and can't use chakra or anything and the only familiar person he finds in this other universe is sakura.

I heard it's called fish out of water but im not sure if that's correct. Anyway. Thanks so much ya'll 😭
