SakurAlpha's Fic Rec of Pure how did you create this you amazing bean
Just Fanfiction Recommendations that are like amazing. Most of these probably brought me to tears now that I think about it, or made me feeling giddy. (Or some fics that left me horrifically awed)
A list of fandoms I commonly read on this site
Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild/ Twilight Princess
Harry Potter
Boku no Hero Academia
Naruto
Honkai Impact
Genshin Impact
Some of favorite tags - Time-Travel, SI-OC, Fix - It,
Honestly the what-if stories and the ripples they cause are a delight.Also can I just say, any of the authors I put on here. You guys are amazing. Fricking amazing, how did you create these masterpieces? Even if it’s just crack, fluff, the horrors of this world, a steamy romance, it’s all flipping amazing.
A piece of advice, mind the tags, I don’t do it often but there’s probably some fanfiction that’s like psychological horror. (probably Harry Potter fics tbh) or if it’s just a pairing you don’t like filter it out. :)

Summary
To a man exhausted by the incompetence of his coworkers, there was only one Holy Grail: Surrounded by Idiots by Thomas Erikson.
He bought it on a rainy Tuesday and completely absorbed it. The Four-Color Personality Model—Red, Yellow, Green, and Blue—became his Bible. Human madness finally made sense. It was the last book he’d ever love; on his way to buy the sequel, Surrounded by Liars, a stray truck violently ended his corporate misery.
Instead of the void, he woke up behind a massive oak desk. He had transmigrated as Eroch, the doomed, corrupt bureaucrat from Genshin Impact destined to collude with mad scientists, orchestrate a traumatic cover-up, and die a traitor.
It is Day One of his promotion to Inspector of the Knights of Favonius. Weaponless, without a Vision, and sitting on a political time bomb, he only has one tool: a fully memorized behavioral psychology book. He never got to read Surrounded by Liars, a massive shame since Mondstadt is full of them. But Eroch takes a deep breath and prepares to treat Teyvat like a toxic corporate office.
TL;DR: Your author wants to see if the principles of Surrounded by Idiots can be applied to Genshin Impact.

The light hits first, wide golden and endless. It’s disorienting.
Above him the sky feels enormous in its vastness. High clouds drift lazily within pale blue stretching in every direction.
And then the booming voice of Claudius Templesmith rings across the arena, like a deity speaking to its patrons. “Ladies and Gentlemen, the 63rd Hunger Games have begun!”

Summary
Leah went through the ritual just like the shifters before her, and the fact that she was the only woman to do it was apparently little cause for concern. At least, that’s what the elders assured her. Despite Leah's doubts, their instructions had been clear enough. Dress as a warrior. Act as a warrior. Drink the tea like a warrior.
And then follow your instincts.
Which would’ve been a whole lot more helpful if those instincts hadn’t led her straight into the path—and arms—of one of the most dangerous and inhumanly beautiful bloodsuckers to ever stalk the earth.
Yeah. Thanks, tea. Thanks, sacred ritual. Really. Glad for the inspo—take up knitting? Open a gym? Key Sam’s car? No?
... Literally anything else would’ve been better.
Or: Leah follows her instincts straight into a vampire disaster, and things simultaneously get better and worse from there.

Summary
Eva Stratt has never been a woman who hesitates.
She’s made countless decisions after decisions throughout her life, often regardless of the consequences that may result. She’s not an idiot. She’s well aware that there will be consequences, and she’s equally sure that the consequences will be of little concern. The end justifies the means — her actions will be judged, but at least they will have happened.
But here, alone in a Russian conference room, for once in her life Eva Stratt does not know what to do.
OR; The beetles make it home.

Summary
Snatching the notebook from Lily's hands, Mary waves it. "So we'll have to go through this, see who you could tolerate for at least six months, if not a lifetime, and who can stand up to both Potter and Snape."
"There's not going to be many, I don't think," Lily says. "That's an ugly combination of personalities to deal with on my behalf. That's asking a lot from a boyfriend who doesn't exist yet."
"It's not the greatest," Mary agrees. "But, you know, you've also got your friends. We've never liked Snape--"
"I know," Lily says dryly.
"--and Potter might be obsessed with you but, well, you've never liked him. What's the harm in trying something different?" Mary says.

"I can't believe it." He muttered, staring at the nightmare in front of him that the Mythical Pokemon didn't make for once.
"How is it that, out of all of the six of you– You are the normal one?!"
Darkrai floated ominously before doing a halfhearted shrug.
He could only place his head into his hands, right on time too as a Flamethrower breezed through, inches away from burning his hair.
"I'm never using cheats again."
OR: Someone wakes up as Tobias. You know, the Legendary Guy that was just there to beat Ash's ass.
He's starting to realize why Tobias never showed the rest of his team.
