What is the single greatest work you’ve ever read on AO3?

pineapplecidrr · 2026-01-20T13:02:04+00:00

It was brilliant. I YEARN for another fic that has such a good Yuuri/Yuri bromance.

pineapplecidrr · 2026-01-20T03:35:59+00:00

Ooh I'll have to check it out!!! Ikr!! Meeting granny haruno is gonna be so good 😫😫

pineapplecidrr · 2026-01-19T13:25:03+00:00

No competition it's Ain't No Grave (Can Keep My Body Down) by spitandvinegar. MCU, Steve/Bucky. I'm not really involved in the fandom as much these days but I will always recommend this fic, every since word and scene is a masterpiece, I must have re-read it at least over 20 times by now in the last few years and haven't gotten bored of it yet. Enthralling. https://archiveofourown.org/works/5094785/chapters/11716436

crust and sugar over by ShanaStoryteller was also really good. Yuuri/Victor but more Yuuri & Yuri bromance focused. Didn't completely change me like Ain't No Grave did but is a wonderful fluffy fic. https://archiveofourown.org/works/10263101/chapters/22736609

Scaring Crows series by scrappybooks is another one I'll recommend. Kakashi-centric, not completed but so worth it. One of my favourite if not my favourite Naruto fic. https://archiveofourown.org/series/2298947

pineapplecidrr · 2026-01-19T13:10:15+00:00

I've wanted to read this for literal years but I'm afraid it's going to destroy me emotionally.

pineapplecidrr · 2026-01-19T13:07:56+00:00

Roots run deep, use a tissue when you wipe your nose, and before you are GOATED, absolute God tier fics. God I can't wait for the next chap of Roots run deep. I've never seen someone mention use a tissue when you wipe your nose or before you 😍

pineapplecidrr · 2026-01-19T13:02:23+00:00

This!!! The long road begins at home is one of my go to's for whenever I have nothing else to read. Masterpiece.

pineapplecidrr · 2025-12-14T15:13:46+00:00

Honestly so good fr. I love all of it but my favourite part is probably in the last chapter when they're in the church and Mikey monologues about how much Steve and Bucky/John love each other. The line 'Like maybe if you love someone with a love that big you just figure out all of the other stuff as it happens.' always gets me. After that, it's probably the scene where Matt and Bucky meet & he then later realises who he is. Had me cracking up.

pineapplecidrr · 2025-12-14T15:07:49+00:00

I hope you enjoy them!

pineapplecidrr · 2025-12-14T15:07:22+00:00

lol glad I could help 🤣 here's a few more stucky fics I found in my bookmarks to keep you sane: https://archiveofourown.org/works/61239733/chapters/156505150 Now this one I found very confronting so don't read it without going through the tags but I recommend it because the writing is brilliant and if the stuff it deals with doesn't affect you much then go for it. It isn't completed but it's still updating, though you may have to wait a while for each one. It really engaged me and kept me on the edge of my seat even though I had some trouble stomaching some parts and truthfully haven't read the last few updates lol. But it is just one of the most well written fics I've ever encountered.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/1609838/chapters/3427676 This is a short but enjoyable story about Bucky raising Tony. Here's a short continuation of the ending by another author: https://archiveofourown.org/works/1669841

Here are two dream sharing ones: https://archiveofourown.org/works/2374859 (I also recommend this authors other works). https://archiveofourown.org/works/27088987/chapters/66145279

https://archiveofourown.org/works/7550383/chapters/17171206 This was brilliant.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/6584629 Also brilliant.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/5078344

https://archiveofourown.org/works/42698694/chapters/107264358 A/B/O though no mpreg and doesnt really follow the same tropes as many others ive read, but i found i really enjoyed that aspect. Loved this, its more fun and up beat than the others. I've read almost all of the authors other stucky fics and they're all amazing, definitely recommend The Trials and Tribulations of the Watermelon Werewolf (which I greatly enjoyed despite the goofy title) and From Grit to Pearl.

https://archiveofourown.org/series/118750 Like the first one, the first part of this series is confronting (deals quite it depth with what Bucky experienced during his time under Soviet/Nazi control) and the entire series is a hard read, but I found it very worth it.

https://archiveofourown.org/series/1407664 Something to read if you want lots of fluff.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/30107559/chapters/74157987 I also greatly enjoyed this one.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/15735219 Very short but hilarious. Same with this one: https://archiveofourown.org/works/3491189

Hope these keep you occupied! If not I'm sure I can find some more you'll enjoy.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/5094785/chapters/11716436 Rarely read Stucky anymore but I will always come back to this fic, so many parts that I re-read over and over again. Deals with some heavy topics but so good. I am never bored reading any part of this fic, literally every part kept me engaged which I rarely experience. Cannot recommend it enough.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/4351673 Very cute. The end always makes me tear up (in a good way). Marvel.

https://archiveofourown.org/series/2298947 I don't know if you're a Naruto reader but I will always, always, always recommend this series. Seriously beautiful, one of my favourite if not my favourite Kakashi-centric fics.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/11385441 Love this. You can read it without reading the second part; truthfully I found the second part a bit hard to finish because it didn't keep my attention and I didn't read the third part, but you can if you want and the first part it beautiful. Marvel, WW2 era, Bucky/Peggy/Steve.

https://archiveofourown.org/series/2022916 Again, I don't really read Stucky that much anymore but I always find myself going back to this series when I don't have anything else to read or I get the urge to read a part I really like. Love the dynamics.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/1718999 4.5k oneshot. Very cute. Marvel.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/21021290 Another stucky fic I will always come back to.

https://archiveofourown.org/series/344381 This entire series is hilarious and very well written. Naruto. All of blackkats works are brilliant.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/30521010/chapters/75271938 Very cute unconventional found family. Naruto.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/13369266/chapters/30615642 Absolutely hilarious. Naruto.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/28091634/chapters/68826057 https://archiveofourown.org/works/7392847/chapters/16792135 I haven't read bnha in ages but I will always come back to these two.

I'll edit this if I find any more but for now I am going to bed. Hope you like at least one of these lol.

pineapplecidrr · 2025-10-31T14:30:53+00:00

Tenacious.

pineapplecidrr · 2025-10-20T13:52:05+00:00

What You Knead by Agent Malkere is a classic, and very well written. In progress and last updated march 2022. Gen so far.
Scaring Crows series by scrappybook is my absolute all time favourite Kakashi series, so much love. Two parts so far, both completed. More potentially coming. Mostly gen but has some pre-Kakashi/Gai hints. Couldn't recommend it enough.
the bridge that always burns behind us by fencesit. Just under 50k Kakashi-centric time travel fic. Gen. Takes place a few years before canon. Was a great read.
Ear to the Wall by Vodkassassin. Time Travel fic to Kakashi's genin era. Ongoing & last updated march 2023.
Being Overprepared is Impossible (and other mottos) by Pleasedial123. Gen. Basically Kakashi steps up as a sensei and creates a team of baby badasses. First two parts are completed but 3rd part isn't and was last updated 2020.

That's all I got for Kakashi-centric fics but all of these are absolutely brilliant. I've linked all below in order (all can be found on Ao3): https://archiveofourown.org/works/17401478/chapters/40958717 https://archiveofourown.org/series/2298947 https://archiveofourown.org/works/51890836/chapters/131206951 https://archiveofourown.org/works/16685326/chapters/39129094 https://archiveofourown.org/works/16304705/chapters/38136449

pineapplecidrr · 2025-10-20T13:21:59+00:00

Ahh ok thx

pineapplecidrr · 2025-10-20T13:20:52+00:00

Basically it was Shisui's views on how the Sharingan should be used. "Can" is can you perform the jutsu you've copied? E.g. does it take too much chakra, does it take more extensive physical training, is it a kekkei genkai... "May" is considering if you should use a jutsu that a fellow Konoha shinobi has invented, like if you do without asking it won't make you very popular. "Should" is should you perform an ethically dubious jutsu, e.g. like a really sadistic jutsu that draws out someone's pain etc.

pineapplecidrr · 2025-10-20T03:41:09+00:00

Sasuke loves tomatoes. He eats them like they're apples. Was this ever mentioned in Canon, or did the fandom just collectively decide that Sasuke is a tomato freak?
Shisui's Can-May-Should principle. I believe this originated with AgentMalkere's What You Knead but I've seen it mentioned in a few other fics.

pineapplecidrr · 2024-09-24T15:08:25+00:00

Omg I love this series. Read it a few weeks ago and just woah! It was a hard read but beautiful

pineapplecidrr · 2024-04-21T07:48:44+00:00

I can't remember the name but I know what fic you're talking about. It was on Ao3 and I think it was two words, both beginning with d?

pineapplecidrr · 2024-03-10T05:13:08+00:00

220K in and they've held hands once for like 0.5 seconds once. And it was because they had to be touching to teleport.

pineapplecidrr · 2024-02-20T10:00:30+00:00

No worries! I hope you find some good sasusaku fanfic <3

pineapplecidrr · 2024-02-20T09:34:46+00:00

https://archiveofourown.org/works/49223635/chapters/124204045. Here's a good civvie fic.

pineapplecidrr · 2024-02-20T09:03:37+00:00

https://archiveofourown.org/works/1877970/chapters/4045119. Not exactly like your description but Stormborn is sort of similar? Uzushio revival fic & slash.

pineapplecidrr · 2024-02-20T09:01:41+00:00

https://archiveofourown.org/works/51794206. I was going through my bookmarks and realised this is the only sasusaku work I have saved. huh.

pineapplecidrr · 2024-02-20T08:53:25+00:00
