Spy x Family
MISSION N: No More Liesbychosobestboi
In which Loid and Yor crosses path as Twilight and Thorn Princess.
Thorn Princess gets assigned to assassinate Westalis’ best spy. Twilight struggled between doing what is best for the success of his mission and what his heart tells him now that he’s began to let it open.
Enemies fic. Twilight is having a time. Anya is freaking out (she really doesn’t want her parents to hurt each other but didn’t seem to really know what she can do). And Yor is (willfully?) oblivious.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Open ContractbyM_Writer_Of_Stuff
Twilight. Loid Forger. Agent of WISE. Family man. He had his secrets, and his family had their own. A poorly communicated mission leads to a discovery that ensures that the line between these two faces exists no longer.
Thorn Princess and Twilight both get assigned assigned the same mission as allies. A slip up on Twilights part reveals he knows a bit more about Thorn Princess than she would like and so she forcefully takes his identity as insurance.

Papa’s Ex-GirlfriendbyLacrow
Robert was dead and buried. All that was left was Loid Forger, and once Operation Strix was completed that persona would be tossed aside as well. There was no man to love, really, though try telling that to his fake wife and the woman he pretended to date before her.
Twilight messes up, his disguise for Loid not being far enough off from his disguise for Robert. A story about Yor and Loid’s relationship and her supporting her totally-not-a-real-husband through a increasingly annoying and frightening confrontation with a “delusional patient”
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Mission CompletebyArthurtheGatekeeper
The mission is over. It’s over and soon enough his handler will extract him from his apartment with Anya and Yor.
And that’s fine because Twilight is a professional who’s good at letting go.
Except he doesn’t want to.
A slightly angsty fic with a hopeful but uncertain ending. Twilight tries to talk himself into being able to disappear, Anya doesn’t want her pa to leave, her distress is actively not helping his resolve.

Dororo
cutting daisiesbySEMellark
“Dororo, you - ” Hyakkimaru hesitates. There are still tears in his eyes when he reaches forward with shaking hands to cup Dororo’s face. “You’re - ”
Dororo laughs, overwhelmed by the depth of emotion he sees in his brother’s eyes. He covers Hyakkimaru’s hands with his own and closes his eyes. “Yeah. It’s me.”
…
Hyakkimaru makes some drastic life changes, all for Dororo’s sake.
A story about family and letting go of anger for your own well being. Dororo used he/him in this one and is more explicitly ftm trans.

Loving ZukobyKennkirk(@kenn-kirk)
Yes, technically they did need a new roommate, but that didn’t mean anyone was happy with living with their childhood bully. But it’s Zuko vs Wrath of the Landlord and guess who won. Maybe they could make it work. Now if the Fire Nation could not restart the war that would be super cool.
The Gaang is finally together for their university experience and Zuko becomes their roommate. a Modern Uni AU.
Yo wtf this is so good!!! Everybody’s going through some things and a war is starting and even being modern au this is still very atla!

Welcome to Ba Sing Se*byKennkirk(@Kenn-kirk)
Lee is an Earth Kingdom refugee who has recently moved to Ba Sing Se to escape… something. But new city, new Lee. That should be the end of the story. But Lee’s got this scar that he didn’t know about, a surprise Uncle who calls him Zuko, and the Dai Li watching from his shadow.
* side effects may include but not restricted to: minortomajormemoryloss,brainwashing,loosingtime,andparanoia
So the memory suppression situation in this one is terrifying and I absolutely love it!!!

The Sunbeam Chronicles series by ninjawrites
Zuko adopts a baby by accident and finds purpose in life.
By the Light of the SunPart 1
“Have you decided on a name?” Uncle says one day.
He furrows his brows and takes a moment to process the question. “I shouldn’t.”
“And why not Prince Zuko?”
“Her real family should name her.” Zuko says after a few moments. “Whoever they will be.”
Uncle looks at him with something Zuko can’t decipher. “You saved her, did you not? Both her life and her future. If anyone deserves that honor nephew, it is you.”
When Zuko encounters Aang and Katara in the Ba Sing Se catacombs, he makes a vastly different choice. What they don’t realize however, is that he’s not just fighting for himself anymore.
*･゜ﾟ･*:.｡..｡.:*･*･*:.｡. .｡.:*･゜ﾟ･*
A Glimmer on The WavesPart 2
Hakoda and Zuko have a talk about fatherhood aboard their captured Fire Nation ship.
*･゜ﾟ･*:.｡..｡.:*･*･*:.｡. .｡.:*･゜ﾟ･*
In The Land of The Setting SunPart 3
With no other choice, Zuko brings his new daughter back to the homeland he hasn’t seen in years. He only hopes he can keep her safe as the gang moves through enemy territory.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
The last thing he remembers is being struck by Azula’s lightning on the fateful day of the comet, but when Zuko opens his eyes he is faced with an Avatar’s innocent question of friendship. Has he failed at bringing balance to the world or is this the Spirit’s giving him another chance?
All he knows is he’s not going to mess it up this time.
TIME TRAVEL FIX IT HELL YEAH!!!!
The gaang may or may not have failed at sozin’s comet but Zuko probably died and is now all the way back to when he got shot in the head with a arrow. I LOVE time travel Fics! I LOVE do-overs! I LOVE when characters get to see things again from a new perspective!!!

Adrien needs comfort.

Nino offering Adrien some comfort after he has some realizations about his and his father’s relationship. Post reveal.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Ladybug kissed Adrien, and he’s freaking out.
!!!! Both of them just: there’s no way a guy like that could be interested in me (N: man he’s never going to notice me, A: but are you sure, like 100% you mean it, you actually like me?) I laughed, there were definitely parts where I was like Adrien’s gonna make a break for the window. anyways

[X]The Problem with PursesbyDuplica123
What would happen if Cat Noir, being a gentleman, helps out his friend who had her purse stolen? And Ladybug lost her purse, too!
AND THEN THEY LIVE HAPPILY EVER AFTER! what do you mean this probably leads to a chat blanc/ephemeral universe? shut up fuck you they get to be happy in my fic continuation brain (seriously though this one’s cute, I love it )
Half identity reveal, the romance is mostly adrinette.

[X]Where timing is kind to usbydeinde_prandium(@deinde-prandium)
“What if there is a universe out there where there I’m a different kind of Chat Noir? Where some tiny decision, possibly not even made by me, has had the power to alter my reality as I know it in this world?”
An impromptu physics lesson on the roof leads to unexpected revelations. MariChat.
Written for the ML Writers Guild September 2020 Event. Based on the prompt: “Ever wonder how different your life would be if that one thing never happened?”
Ahhh!! I love this one ❤️marichat balcony talk with half identity reveal, mutual pining, marinette pov.

[X]Glad We’re FriendsbyBoogum(@botherkupo)
Marinette probably should have listened to her instincts the first time. It was risky to get too close to Chat Noir, even if they were just friends. (Because the fact her heart was pounding a little faster around him meant nothing at all. Absolutely nothing.)
Marichat friendship shenanigans, some crêpes in the park, a run through a rainstorm, and a talk in a bedroom on friendship and trust.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Natural Selectionsby@deinde-prandum
In which Adrien tries to get Plagg to diversify his cheese options.
A little Plagg and Adrien silliness (and Adrien putting in effort for Plagg that his previous holders wouldn’t even consider)

[X]Keeping in CharacterbyBoogum(@botherkupo)
It was the kind of cliché featured in romcoms: pretend to be a couple, attend a fancy party, nab a miraculous. And, of course, make sure to stay in character. That was the important part.
Ladynoir undercover fake dating!!! HDHSKSJQLNSM!!! These two!! CN: sorry I panic kissed you LB: wanna panic again? ❤️❤️

[X]Blood and GoldbyYourFavoriteCONTRACTOR
While on a solo, late night patrol, Ladybug discovers something about her “Sunshine Child” classmate that is more sinister than she could have expected. She flees the scene and finds comfort and a new understanding through her partner Chat Noir.
!!!!!! Holy fucking shit!! It updated!! I can’t believe it updated!! It’s been years!!!!!!!! *screams incoherently*
One of my favorite vampire au’s (technically already rec’d it here but whatever)

[X]Chat Blanc and The DevastationbyRedHoodsDoll
Chat Blanc Spoilers*****
Chat Noir was not sure what to do - maybe she could help since she’s all he has left.
I really love this one, it gives me plot bunnies (it’s like, just the beginning or a story, but omg the potential it creates!!!) Chat Blanc but Marinette survives the initial blast (my guess is a mix between Chat doesn’t want to hurt her and Tikki deciding to sacrifice herself (or her physical firm) in order to save her wielder)

[X]Heartfeltbysariahsue(@sariahsue)
Adrien woke with this face buried in the cat sweater that Ladybug had gifted to him last night. Maybe “gifted” was the wrong word, but he wasn’t sure what to call it when your best friend broke into your room in the dead of night, and then screamed nonsense and threw a present at your head when you accidentally caught her, before running away faster than a shadow.
Awww oh my god this is adorable!! ❤️❤️

[X]Land and SeabyNomolosk(@nomolosk)
When Marinette joined Alya and Nino for a weekend at the beach, the last thing she expected was to be lost at sea, or to be rescued by a very handsome merman.
When Adrien volunteered to swim a remote patrol, the last thing he expected was to meet his soulmate… or for her to be human.
Mermaid + Soulmate AU. Ongoing, coming back to this one cuz they started updating again. Adrien and Marinette confirm themselves as soulmates very quickly and he goes to live with her BUT the author has stated the intent for this to be a slow burn romance so I’m pretty interested in seeing where this winds up going.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
[X]What the Cat Dragged InbyKryal
Tony’s pretty sure it’s written into cosmic law somewhere: superheroes are not supposed be cute.
Apparently, no one’s told these two.
He’s okay with that.
Yeah, coming back around to this one again, gotta love crossover stories that treat all the series with respect. Also outsider pov, when done well, is one of my favorite things.

Chat Noir stumbles onto Marinette’s balcony after a long night of patrol and an accidental run in with some catnip. Just how does an average citizen manage to deal with a near drunk hero?

Weather PhenombyIcka M Chif (mischif) (@ickaimp)
In 1818, Aster meets a strange boy with white hair standing in the middle of the North American Great Plains.
Things never are quite the same after that.
Every time I get into a Rise of the Guardians mood I wind up back at this fic.
If Jack and Bunnymund had started a friendship in 1818 when Jack was a young spirit, meeting up each year around Easter all the way up until Jack gets chosen as a guardian.
Inspired by @rufftoon’s“Old Hills” comic, which you should also definitely read (+ all the comics liked at the bottom of the fic)

drench yourself in words unspokenbyMighty_Huntress(@mira-jadeamethyst)
Chat Noir loves his team. He didn’t.. quite realize before now that they love him back.
Runaway Adrien my beloved! So I’ve found my way back to this fic a few times, it’s basically everyone has their miraculous probably full time au, where they’re all a team and have a secret base (warehouse) to hang out in. The team gets together and builds Adrien a safe place to live (while keeping secret identities intact).

The Chat Came BackbyLNC(@lnc2)
Every witch needs a familiar but this was a little much.
Hnnngggf Ugh I love this AU so much. Unfinished and last updated in 2019 so probably won’t be finished but a very good witch/familiar au. Adrien was cursed into a cat due to his father pissing off a witch, the curse breaks and now he and Marinette have to figure out their new dynamic.
Edit: I have been informed that nothing is abandoned, they are just sick

Linked Together (As Partners and More)bychatonne-rousse (thefullbeaumonty)(@chatonne-rousse)
Adrien now knows the identity of Marinette’s mysterious friend (spoiler alert: it’s him, in magical black leather). He also knows that his beloved friend is none other than his beloved partner.
What he doesn’t know is the name of the boy she loves, nor does he know how to tell her what he’s discovered.
One more revelation makes things clear, and one more gift will share the truth of his heart.
Aww this one is adorable ❤️

Imposter Syndromebyhighspeedearth
Impostor Syndrome: when you believe it is only a matter of time before they find out you don’t know what you are doing.
Marinette had a bad day, and this time transforming into Ladybug doesn’t help.
Chat Noir plucks her off the Eiffel Tower for a pep talk.
Marinette spiraling a little after being reminded just how much of a physical difference there is between her and Ladybug and Chat cheering her up and reminding her that they’re one and the same.

SpellboundbyLilafly(@lilaflyy)
Going out on Midsummer had been a very bad idea, Adrien was able to admit that much. He couldn’t regret running into a girl named Marinette though, who had helped him through the time where Faerie tried to call him with sweet songs.
He really wanted to get to know her better, but there was a slight problem: he was a Cat Sidhe and if she found out about it, she might as well be proclaimed dead on the spot. But the loneliness he had seen in her eyes had been too familiar for him to just leave her alone. Keeping her ignorant of the presence of the fair folk, while he himself was one of them, proved to be a lot harder than he had expected it to be though.
Spellbound updated! (ﾉ⌒∇⌒)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧※☆°＊*・.:.
So I’ve rec’d it before hereandhere but to reiterate:
Faedrien (cat sidhe) twins au with changeling!Bridgette. Love square romance, AroAce!Felix, kwami backstory, miraculous lore, lots of Fae lore, Bridgette backstory, kwami swaps, and lots of other fun stuff!

In The Garden Light At DawnbyRosemary_and_Geraniums
Zuko never got to complete his redemption arc. When he confronted his father on the day of the eclipse, he never walked away from the fight.
Alternatively:
Ozai killed his son before he could run away and join the avatar, mixed with my favorite SoulmateAU where the gaang is one big soul family.

Unwanted FriendsbyFoiblePNoteworthy(@foiblepnoteworthy)
Aang knew those swords. He’d seen them every day, felt the warm, if rough, presence of their owner in all his hardest moments and coldest flights. He was a strong figure, gentle in his own way. A Firebender who still used swords.
***
There needs to be more platonic soulmate AUs, you guys. Come on. Who wants to see Zuko get dragged into his redemption arc by his soulmates?
So TunaFishChris’s The Family You Choose is still my favorite iteration of the idea of soulmates I’ve ever come across. When you touch blood with your soulmate you share memories and exist like a ghost in their life that only they can interact with. Both of the above stories are takes on that au.

“You’re sick, aren’t you?” He drops down to the balcony. “You’re sick because you love someone and … they don’t love you back.”
(Love square Hanahaki AU, Marichat centric)
Mmmmm that dramatic irony that turns into realization that turns into angst that turns into ‘Oh my god we were idiots weren’t we’ ‘shut up we’re making out now’
Anyways, marichat friendship love square pining fic where they’re both literally dying because of identity shenanigans. ❤️
