Songbook Fanfic Master List

Hello all. I have gotten a lot of new followers this year and I’m so happy to welcome you all. For the end of the year, I have created several lists of my work over the years, organized here in a Master List. I have broken them all up by fandom, so you can click on the fandom(s) you are interested in to see more. 

I’m really proud of the work I’ve written over the years and some of it is clearly better than others. But I have always written fanfic for myself and any joy it can bring other people is a bonus. So even though some of this writing is rough around the edges, they all hold a special place in my heart. 

Songbook’s Legend of Korra Fanfiction: Seeing as most of you are have found me from my Kyalin fic, here is all the LoK fics have written both here and on AO3. It is not all Kyalin, but I love them all the same. 

Songbook’s Harry Potter Fanfiction: This is the first fandom I started writing in (most were written under the penname Minerva’s_Soul). Minerva McGonagall remains one of my favorite characters and I really enjoyed writing in the HP Universe. 

Songbook’s Star Trek Fanfiction: So one of my favorite pieces that I ever wrote is a Star Trek AOS story. I also have a couple of other pieces (mainly on FF.net and are old, so read at your own risk). 

Songbook’s Downton Abbey Fanfiction: After LoK, this is the fandom that I have written the most for...and every single one of them is Isobel Crawley/Richard Clarkson. There is one fic that I never finished and may rewrite next year which features multiple characters/couples. We shall see...

Songbook’s Doctor Who/Sarah Jane Adventures Fanfiction: I have only written Sarah Jane Smith fanfics in this fandom, because she’s my absolute favorite.

Songbook’s Star Wars Fanfiction: I started writing Leia/Amilyn Holdo fanfic...and found myself delving into the world a bit. I would love to play in this sandbox some more because there’s so much potential. 

Songbook’s The 100 Fanfiction: There is only one fic in this fandom and it’s a fix-it fic all the way back in Season Three. Clexa fans will know what I’m talking about. 

Songbook’s X-Men Fanfiction: I don’t know how to explain these and I almost left them off the list. But I wrote them. And honestly, they are what I needed at the time that I wrote them and helped me become a better writer. So take a look at your own risk.

Songbook’s Gunpowder Milkshake Fanfiction: Here are my entries in this new fandom. 

Songbook’s Game of Thrones / House of the Dragon Fanfiction: A few small ficlets in the GoT fandom. 

As always, I hope you enjoy whatever fandom you are interested in. Please feel free to message me or leave an ask. I always enjoy interacting with people and I do take requests (although I do not claim to write for every request, but I will try my best). 

Happy New Year! Love, Songbook

I wish you would write a fic where...

Send me an anymous (or not) summary of the fic you wish I would write. (maybe I will write a tidbit)

What do you look for in a ship? What makes a quintessential you ship?

Women.

Lmao.

Hmmm...let me think.

I like couples that are balanced and are a lot of time the "parents" in a fandom. I love strong, more mature women, and usually they tend to have capable partners or love interests that I vibe with.

The individuals in my favorite ships can stand on their own. The ship isn't usually the defining feature in their story (which is why a lot of my fav ships aren't actually canon couples).

I like a strong, sturdy, supportive ship (even if it's entirely in my head).

Where is your fave place to write?

Currently, it's in my rocking chair while I hold my sleeping baby. But that means I have to type on my phone which is not my fav...

Ideally, it would be on my back porch with a light drizzle of rain in the evening.

[miami-runner]

Anonymously ask me anything you want.

[heavensenthale]

you know what? fuck it *reads the fanfic I spent hours writing for my own enjoyment*

CORLYS & RHAENYS + physical intimacy.

[nicijones]

Ao3 version that lets you open the 'director's cut' where I, the author, explain every detail in excruciating detail to you and what it is in reference to.

[awordwasthebeginning]

@bonsaibovine being absolutely correct in the tags

[dreamtigress]

Legit. Ask me anything you want to know about my fics.

AVOU Chapter 8: The Inevitability of Fate

(Finally. I updated. Damn hockey boys.)

Reality is catching up with everyone.

Aemma is trying to find out who she wants to be now that Viserys is no longer her center. But she is still the queen and she knows she has a duty to the realm and to Rhaenyra.

This chapter originally did not feature her panic attack. Actually, until I was revising my original draft, this chapter was much shorter. There was no panic attack & no mental musings of Otto Hightower about the behind the scenes conspiracy. As I've said before, Aemma is taking on a life of her own and somehow, I felt like this fit her and was a part of her journey into accepting who she is (and others *rhaenys* accepting her as well).

Otto is very different from his book/show counterparts. This character has certainly changed from my first rough drafts, but I like a fun villain. And Otto just fits it too well. So I'm having fun with him, as OOC as he may be. (which this is a fanfic where everything is completely different from the book or show...so I don't think it counts).

And finally, Alicent is yet again suffering. My bad.

But we have finally reached Aegon.

Since my hockey boys lost, I guess it's time to get back to writing.

[songbookff]

After I knock out some hockey boys, I'll get back to writing again. ☠️

[songbookff]

Almost time for my hockey boys to stress me tf out again.

[songbookff]

I may actually die. There are still 13 gd minutes left in this game.
