Bonnie Bennett Fic Recs
In regards to my last post, I thought it would be fruitful to make a post containing my favourite Bonnie Bennett fics I've come across throughout the years. I'm extremely grateful to all fanfiction authors out there and have so much admiration for your extremely selfless, talented and creative souls. As someone who is not the biggest fan of romance but a fiend for very- and I mean VERY- slow, slow-burn fics; my favourite fics are heavily narrative-focused with ships taking a back seat. I also plan to do review-posts for each as some of these have truly encapsulated and impacted me in such a profound way that I HAVE to let the authors know just how phenomenal they are. So without further ado and in no particular order- here are some of my favourite Bonnie Bennett fics of all time; multiple ships, finished & unfinished.
Spitfire by gabrieeella
Klaus seeks Bonnie out for a pleasant little chat concerning the whereabouts of his missing coffin. Friction ensues, however, when Mystic Falls' favorite witch is more of a spitfire than the Original bargained for. Slight language and roarin' UST.
The Second by aslightjump
In which the Gemini Coven does not hold a monopoly on Prison Worlds. Or, 'Everything in Bonnie Bennett's life has gone sideways thus far, so ending up in an Original's hell world probably shouldn't be the surprise it is.' Back in the real world, Kai Parker is learning life lessons he honestly would rather not. 'How to Feel Guilty' is at the top of that list.
a thousand souls crossed over by irishcookie
Bonnie is finally settling into life as the bridge between the living and the dead. That is until Kol Mikaelson shows up and refuses to leave until she does him a favor: give a message to his family in New Orleans. Of course, that is just the beginning. Set in Season 5 with shades of AU, crossover with The Originals. No set pairing at the moment.
Set Fire to Our Bed by LalaRose27
She peered down to the root of him, past the layers of him trying-wanting- to be good, to find all the darkness in his soul hidden under thousands of miles of good intent. When she found this, she smiled and thought, “Yummy.”
The Sound of Silence by rebeldesire
It’s been 3 years since Bonnie Bennett has put the town of Mystic Falls in her rear-view mirror, vowing never to return. A history major at BC by day and a witch-for-hire by night, Bonnie pays the bills by selling the tricks of her trade, though she vows to never again involve herself in the affairs of vampires. But when she receives phone calls from two individuals she never wants to see again, she is thrust unwillingly back into the world she so desperately tried to leave behind. As she races against the clock to uncover the killer bent on raising nothing short of hell, Bonnie must put aside her wants and discover the strength she needs in order to prevent the world from destruction. Along the way, she makes a pact with her sworn enemies to take down the biggest threat to humankind the world has ever seen, or soon the world may ring with the sound of silence. It’s her destiny. It may also be her doom.
Runaways by romeosareveryundependable
Tyler was told Bonnie was dead so why is she partying it up at a New Orleans nightclub? Before Tyler has a chance to investigate, his memories of Bonnie are wiped and the King of the Quarter himself thrusts Tyler into a struggle for the city, a struggle Bonnie is already very much a part of.
Catharsis by Walmart Sadie Kane
Kai was given a second chance—his emotions freed by Luke, he's determined to do right by his Coven, but instead finds himself thrown headfirst into a sea of treacherous politics. Bonnie told him she never wanted to see him again, but fate has a funny way of not giving her a choice. S6 alternate ending

After a deal is struck, the pair try to work together while dealing with their losses. A Klonnie angst fic set after the series finale of TVD and season 3 of The Originals. COMPLETED.
New Beginnings by shadowcatgirl09
TVD Season 6 AU: After a few too many startling revelations Bonnie is fed up and decides to leave. Enter the little town of Havencrest, a quiet place, perfect for settling down away from everything. Or so it’s thought; Bonnie left the constant chaos that was Mystic Falls only to get mixed up in something much darker.
Young and Beautiful by jam2008
Kol/Bonnie. Bonnie Bennett is dead. Trapped behind the veil, she finds herself aimlessly walking the Other Side. Bonnie stumbles upon bewitched night club Afterlife where departed souls often congregate. To Bonnie's displeasure, one of Afterlife's nightly patrons is none other than sadistic and sharp-tongued Kol Mikaelson. Kennett with a hint of Beremy. Will contain mature content.
stand up in my holy terrain by yeoban
"It is a part of who you are, Bonnie. You are meant to play the game of power." [Bonnie-centric TVD rewrite. Endgame pairing TBD]
Sample by Cinders and Brimstone
I'm offering up a couple of Klonnie oneshots that I had collecting dust on my desktop. They're all set somewhere in the middle of season 3. They fit in at random spots. All rated M, all of them AU. If anyone wants to rip an idea, feel free. Each one is a separate attempt. I was going to delete them but I thought, hey, why not post somebody might be able to make the idea work.
Shades of Pink by jazzywazzy08
When she discovers Bonnie's underlying feelings for her best friend through observation Katherine imitates her in an effort to begin to sway Bonnie to her side of things. However, the ruse is discovered almost immediately though not before a passionate encounter forces Bonnie to face truths about herself that she would rather hide and makes her easy prey to not only Katherine but also Rebekah who has been sent by Klaus to track Katherine down and recruit the last of the Bennett line. When both Elena and Caroline rally around Bonnie in an effort to protect her they realize that they have feelings of their own for the witch that can no longer be denied….

It’s a Bloodsport by Midnightrain6
"Haven't you noticed it yet, darling?" "Noticed what?" "All these strange murders…the victims are all supernatural." And just like that, Bonnie Bennett finds herself plunged into her strangest, most disturbing ordeal yet.

Taking Me Over Completely by Leah Naberrie
AU from 6x12 end. Luke didn't get there on time. Jo and Kai merged. Jo won. Kai lost. And they all lived happily ever after. The end. ... Right?... Right? (Starring bi!Bonnie, Bonjo... Bonkai... and Baroline if you squint, Gemini coven mythlore, and the usual Mystic Falls riffraff).
Spine by foxes
Klaus claims Bonnie as she's the only person left who can kill him. He seeks to destroy the remains of the White Oak tree with Bonnie by his side. Bonnie plots to kill him in the midst of the search, both rivaling with newly-bloomed, foreign feelings.
Rebirth by irishcookie
When she left Mystic Falls, Bonnie left behind everything that made her a witch. Now living what she considers a normal life with her husband and two children, she is thrown when Klaus Mikaelson quite literally shows up on her doorstep. She is forced to try and balance the two different facets of her life while Klaus gleefully watches. A series of AU drabbles set post TVD.
beyond the barricade by tjmraso
When a witch is turned into a vampire, they lose their magic. Some lose the will to live, some turn to killing, trying to replace the rush of power they used to feel on a daily basis. And some, like Bonnie Bennett, search for ways to get it back. A rumor about a woman in Russia, who's able to help someone in her position, has lit a fire in Bonnie's heart, and to get there, she's employed the most unappreciated, arguably the craziest and definitely the most bored Original vampire to protect her during her travels.
