frenrey fanfic recommendations from a guy who’s horribly hyperfixated on frenrey and is getting a degree in english literature to write fanfic better (half-kidding)
mdni for section marked 🔞 :P
Human Resources Violation (113k words, fin.)
most popular fic in the fandom & for a reason. generally a must read since most people know about
Play Again? (106k words, fin.)
not very ship focused but creative narrative that holds its own and well written (joshua pov!)
you might want me (to drop dead) (89k words, fin.)
personally one of my favs, first long fic ive read that actually made gordon and benrey physically fight, also great characterization + hate dating ♥️
heathens (183k words, discontinued)
my fav roommate au, i think it does it right where others fail. it is polyamory with tommy later on but that really shouldn’t stop u from reading tbh, very good
water under the bridge (don't pretend that you don't want me) (48k words, fin.)
college auuuuu ♥️ first frenrey fic i’ve read
brokeback mesa (146k words, fin.)
western auuuuu so much research and effort put into accuracy it’s worth it to read just for that alone . learn something new about cowboys
no grave can hold my body down (73k words, fin.)
in which benrey didn’t betray gordon au, i liked the medical horror and its a well rounded fic
various homes on the long road of denial (series, 19k words, ongoing)
don’t let the 2nd person deter you, they're all really beautifully written one shots. really really great writing can’t stress enough
my favs of the series: what is yours and what is his + and i would twist if you told me
remote access (22k words, fin.)
genuinely the best fanfic in the entire fandom (in my opinion). i talk and think about this fanfic all the time. the characterization is so So good
you wouldn’t stop me, right? (20k words, ongoing)
no actual smut yet but vivid descriptions of planned and executed murder. it’s the darker side of hlvrai that people never really try to explore especially in regards to ptsd and trauma, so i looove and can’t wait for updates
cracking open a cold one (20k words, fin.)
funny and in character and Hello. vampire au. hell yes ??!
cxlesstial : has been in the fandoms forever and has 23 whole fics Hello. haven’t read them all but i recommend
unfounded_hermantics : has 2 current longfics that r both very good 📍
marzanna : i glaze marzanna so much I hope you don’t see this but anyway they’ve written all my fav fics in the fandom and have the best characterization to me♥️
and if you’ve made it this far, id like to #selfpromo i’ve got 4 frenrey yuri fanfics (one 80k word ongoing and one finished 40k word 🔞) that people have said was apparently good. .
if i didn’t include your favorite fanfic its probably because i 1) havent read it, 2) i didn’t like it, or 3) the fact i hardly read oneshots. feel free to recommend ur favs below if not included >_<🪽
