Sometimes you want to really dig into a good work-in-progress...and here is the list of what's currently scratching that reading itch for me =)
Completed Stories
Title: Identity Crisis (2007-2010)
Author: Lady Griddlebone
Universe: Canon
Genre: Drama, Romance, Mystery
Rating: X
Warning: Violence, explicit sex
Pairing: Miroku/Sango, Inuyasha/Kagome
Current Word Length: 79,974 (20 chapters)
URL(s): (1) http://www.mediaminer.org/fanfic/view_st.php/146538/ | (2) http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3795858/1/
Author's Summary: When Sango's confidence is shaken, she struggles to find her way back to being the woman she was.
Why I'm recommending this piece: Everything I know about writing Sango I learned from reading Lady Griddlebone. Nobody pays her greater justice in fanfic - for that reason alone, you should read this story :) The premise is fresh, the mystery riveting, and the character growth and development is totally brilliant. This could easily be a story arc within the manga itself, that's how well it fits into canon, IMO. A definite must-read for anybody interested in canon Mir/San fic.
Current Works in Progress
Title: Raindrops (2005-present)
Artist: YoukaiYume
Universe: Canon divergence
Genre: Romance
Rating: T
Warning(s): Violence
Pairing: Sesshoumaru/Kagome
Word Length: doujinshi; Chapter 6 in progress
URL: http://youkaiyume.deviantart.com/art/Raindrops-01-Cover-15629317
Why I'm recommending this piece: A gorgeous doujin featuring my favorite guilty pleasure pairing? Sign me up! Chapter six is being posted as we speak, but the previous five make for wonderful reading (and re-reading) even during the artist's haitus from the project.
Title: Season of Sorrow (2009-present)
Author: Lady Griddlebone
Universe: Canon divergence
Genre: Darkfic
Rating: M
Warning(s): Language, Innuendo
Pairing: None (Sango-centric)
Word Length: 15,131 (2 chapters)
URL: http://www.mediaminer.org/fanfic/view_st.php/161958
Author's Summary: Losing her family and village was just the beginning...
Why I'm recommending this piece: Because nobody writes Sango better than Lady Griddlebone. This is a dark, twisted take on what could've happened, had Sango won the initial battle vs Inuyasha - and found herself on the side of evil instead of good. Mind-fuckery and darkfic at its absolute best.
Title: Bitter (2009-present)
Author:![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
psyco_chick32
Universe: Crossover with MMPR
Genre: Romance, Action/Adventure, Comedy
Rating: M
Warning(s): Language
Pairing: Tommy/Kim, Inuyasha/Kagome, Miroku/Sango, Sesshoumaru/Kagura
Word Length: 22,266 (5 chapters)
URL: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5432281/1/
Author's Summary: Forced into a servitude she does not understand, Kimberly finds herself cut off from her past. 10 years later, she is in need of help; the past catches up with the present to take on an evil the Rangers could never expect.
Why I'm recommending this piece: Look, I don't know jack shit about MMPR (and I hated the show when I was in the proper age bracket), but this is a wonderfully hilarious crossover between the two universes. Kimberly is a total firebrand, not afraid to stand up to Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru - wonderfully refreshing, considering most of the time the female leads fall in love with either (or both!) of them.psyco_chick32's ability to write the MMPR characters and display the warm friendships and camaraderie between the cast is absolutely envious.
Title: Negative Space (2009-present)
Author:yumi_michiyo
Universe: Alternate (modern era)
Genre: Romance, Drama
Rating: M
Warning(s): Language
Pairing: Miroku/Sango, Inuyasha/Kagome
Word Length: 15,929 (4 chapters)
URL: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5510150/1/
Author's Summary: A photograph taken by chance drives Miroku to search for the girl in the picture - but there is more to her than meets the eye.
Why I'm recommending this piece: An interesting premise in a new, alternate universe, with a great twist on the canon story. It's worth the price of admission just to see how the author writes the Miroku/Inuyasha friendship, though the intriguing mystery behind Miroku's never-ending nightmares will have you coming back for more...
Title: Small Moments (2010-present)
Author: Lady Griddlebone
Universe: Canon
Genre: Angst, Drama
Rating: K+
Warning(s): None
Pairing: Miroku/Sango
Word Length: 4,176 (5 chapters)
URL: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5673987/1/
Author's Summary: Their bond was formed on a great journey... and in the small moments along the way. A manga-flavored serial.
Why I'm recommending this piece: A wonderful look between the panels of the manga as, finally, Miroku and Sango's relationship takes center stage on the trip through the canon story of the manga. Absolutely brilliant bits and pieces, updated weekly, from prompts at![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
