Clexa fic rec masterlist
Here’s 100+ of my favorite Clexa fics! (most of these are not in any particular order and have been added over the years)
She by thefooliam. This fic is probably the most popular Clexa modern au and one of the top fics period. Clarke and Lexa are paired together as college roommates, much to their dismay, but they’re fucking soulmates. I feel like the author is psychic and took a peek into my life and the development of my relationship with my wife back when we fell in love in college, and wrote it down just for me. It’s just so special to my heart and I hope this fic stays up forever. I hope she converts the names to OC and publishes this book. I will buy it. God, I will buy it and read it every fucking day of my life, that is how much I love this fic. I reread this at least once a month. I also enjoy this author’s canonverse fic The Taste of War and Heartache.
Lightning Only Strikes Once by fiona_249. My all time favorite canonverse fic. This is THE fix-it fic, folks. Words don’t describe how incredible it is. the loo is not canon, this fic is! Basically Clarke gets struck by lightning and transported back in time to the ark; she and Lexa remember everything and this is their second chance.
In Love and War and Politics by centuriesofexistence. This is one of my all-time favorite fics. I fucking live off sexual tension and oh my Godddd is there sexual tension in this. The first time they hook up, I just afjkldsajfdl;sa it SLAYED me. I absolutely love this fic. Clarke and Lexa are the ultimate power couple and the writing is absolutely fantastic in this. Summary: It’s the most watched Senate race around the country, and Clarke Griffin is running one hell of an underdog campaign against the favored Cage Wallace. But she has a secret weapon that might save the campaign–and a secret that might ruin it. And both are named Lexa Ward. Complete. Also check out Six Shooter, this is one of my faves of all time and it’s only two chapters so far fdlksajfdklsa; Lexa’s a contract killer, Clarke’s a hitwoman, they both get assigned the same target. It’s gonna be a fake dating au too. I check for updates for all fics like, at least a dozen times a day, and when this one updates I will pee my pants, straight up. This author also did another of my favorite fics, though under a different name: Blood rush in the hazy glow by firetestsgold. A modern au where Clarke is a college kid who relentlessly keeps going to the locals favorite bar because she can’t resist challenging the broody mysterious Lexa, all dark leather and darker eyeliner. I love the love/hate dynamic and eventual relationship.
More Women Than Warriors by Steklir. It’s incredibly well-written, descriptive and gorgeous with some of THE very best prose of all the clexa fics period, and this author too is one of those rare gems that is able to really put across in her writing knowledge of what real love feels like. It’s a British boarding school au, Clarke is from America but transfers there, Nia is the mean lil ice queen here too, Lexa is the badass, dedicated Heda, and she and Clarke are hopelessly in love, total soulmates. Trigedasleng is cleverly integrated in this fic, and Clexa’s relationship is beautiful. I’m so weak for it.
Don’t Wanna Be Your Girl by faithtastic. Clarke is a porn star, Lexa’s hopelessly gay, and the smut scenes are FIRE. Fucking amazing. There’s also other one-shots in this universe, plus an AU of it imagining if Lexa was a porn star too: called May We Cum Again, full of shameless jokes and smut. I also love her one-shots such as Cut to the Chase, where the smut queen has done it again and has Lexa as a hairstylist and Clarke a functional bisexual disaster. Cue witty banter and smoldering sexual tension. Ahhh. And The Pursuit, a cracky western au that’s wonderful as well, and Yours for the (s)taking, vampire au! Also check out her Grand Slam Thank You Ma’am where Lexa’s a tennis player, Clarke’s a physio, and they’re absolutely unable to keep their gay in check when Clarke’s giving her massages.
Dirty Dogs by ur_the_puppy. GOD this fic is perfection. Clarke is a werewolf who finds herself kidnapped and trapped in Mount Weather, where she’s forced to participate in monster fights to the death in an arena to an audience. Lexa is in the cage next to hers, and is a vampire. This fic. Is so fucking good I don’t even have words. I also adore her oneshot Breathe into my lips the life I do not have which is about Clarke moving into a house that’s haunted by a ghost - Lexa - who is very baffled that her haunting doesn’t seem to bother her. IT’S SO CUTE. I love We Owe Nothing Now, which is a reincarnation au and a zombie au, it’s so gooood. Also love Of Wolves And Men. After being bitten three years ago, Clarke has had to adjust to a complete derailing of her life. Abandoning her dreams of becoming a doctor in fear of what she could do, she hides away in the small town of Polis with her best friend Raven. It’s a humans only town. That is, until a girl is killed, and Clarke suddenly realises she’s not the only werewolf that exists. or werewolf au where Clarke has no idea the extent of what she is and Lexa really shouldn’t be falling for a mutt. GOD I l LOVE LOVE this author’s writing! One of the best authors in the fandom hands-down.
We Looked Like Giants by colonelpancake04. One of the earliest Clexa fics I read. I can’t even describe why exactly I love this little nugget so much. It’s a modern au about Octavia’s cousin Lexa moving in with them and she is totally off limits to Clarke because of that, but of course, fuckin’ soulmates, they can’t resist each other. I love their first time and they just make me smile. I reread it often.
A Crown Seldom Enjoyed by onemilliongoldstars. The Clexa GOT au you’ve been waiting for! Clarke’s a Tyrell- beautiful, dangerous, silver-tongued and a bit privileged; Lexa’s the Queen of the North- beautiful, dangerous, steel but soft for Clarke. This fic is fantastic. Also check out Stealing Kisses, a one-shot where nerdy Clarke and athlete Lexa are in a secret relationship, and many of their other fantastic fics!
When My Heart is at War by mopeytropey. Canon-verse reimagined; Clarke’s a healer bound and determined to figure out what’s up with the Nightbloods; Lexa is Heda. This fic is wonderful! And the sequel You are in my Head by mopeytropey. Fuckin fantastic, folks, that’s all there is to it, love this writing style. All this author’s writings are, check out A Pleasant Undoing as well!
They take their shots but we’re bulletproof by nightshifted. A canonverse au, one of the first Clexa fics I read. Clarke is PISSED at Lexa after the end of season 2, but Lexa finds her and makes sure she’s cared for. They play chess and talk and it’s just wonderful.
Ground and Pound by dance_tilyouredead. This is an MMA au with Clarke and Lexa as rivals going to throw down, the world can’t help but ship them, and fuck, they practically ship themselves. They try to maintain that rivalry and hate one another but, come on…again…soulmates. I love this fic because even when they’re fighting, the thirst is so real.
You See the Smile That’s On My Mouth (it’s hiding the words that don’t come out) by heartshapedcandy. A childhood modern au where Clarke and Lexa are fuckin soulmates and best friends and it takes them a ridiculous amount of time to figure that out. I also feel like I should mention I have loved you since we were eighteen (long before we both thought the same thing) by forbiddenquill, but it’s incomplete and hasn’t been updated since November of 2015 :( It’s another childhood au where they take way too long to realize they’re soulmates. I also love heartshapedcandy’s And Your Eyes Are the Size of the Moon (you could ‘cause you can so you do) by heartshapedcandy. A sweet modern au where Clarke and Lexa meet at a carnival. One of the first Clexa fics I ever read.
I’d Give Up Forever to Touch You by geralehane. I’m probably going to hell for how much I love this fic. Pretty much every chapter is delightfully sinful smut. Clarke and Lexa are two girls that are forced to live together when Abby is dating Lexa’s father. They ‘hate’ each other and they’re freaking out because once Clarke’s mom and Lexa’s dad marries, they’ll legally be step-siblings, but they’re fucking soulmates and they can’t keep their hands off each other. Also enjoyed Your Hand in Mine, a golddigger!AU where Clarke pretends to date the rich Lexa Woods to get money to support her father, but she is totally falling head over heels for Lexa. Complete, along with the sequel. Your hand in mine pt ii. This author has some great one-shots and other fics as well, such as Just another high school au where Clarke asks Lexa to help her run!
Little Earthquakes by nosuchanimal. High school au where Clexa have instant chemistry, hella well written.
She got me up all night (all I’m singin’ is love songs) by mostlyunstablefangirl. Clarke and Lexa are neighbors who have never met, but regularly partake in singing shower duets together.
Essays in Existentialism by coeurdastronaute (You know this author is amazing because I don’t have to look them up to spell their name) Basically endless incredibly well-written one-shots and prompts…go peruse the chapters and get your Clexa fix! :D Specifically, the Walls chapter is my favorite :) This author has tons of other amazing fics too, check them out! Kiwi where Lexa is a famous musician who meets Clarke on Tinder. This is so cute. Nerd, a super sweet hsau where Lexa is a nerd who gets a crush on cheerleader Clarke. Footy where Lexa’s an international soccer star. Clarke is the daughter of an old famous coach. LOOOVE Plus One. And a million more!
Day Late Friend & Naive Orleans by adreamaloud, daneorange. Childhood friends to lovers au, angsty and so good.
We were pretending, until we weren’t by almostafantasia. Fake girlfriend au. I fucking LOVE this. She has a bunch of other fics I love as well such as: Sail with Me to Someplace New where Clarke attempts to enlist the help of the notorious Captain Lexa Woods, a fearsome pirate who is just as broody and mysterious as she is unwilling to offer her assistance, to help her find her father when his trading ship is attacked by pirates;
In her favorite sundress by feeltripping. Clarke is major thirsty for the delivery girl…
Mystic Coffee by blindwire. Lexa works at a coffee shop, Clarke is a witch. This story is so cool and the art accompanying it is incredible too. I also adore her In the Shallows, a role reversal au where Clarke is Heda and Lexa falls from the sky. Summary: Raised for war and forged in fire, Clarke has vowed to be a leader for her people, to protect them and to make sacrifices so that they do not have to. This is what it means to be Commander and the spirit has chosen her for a reason.
The Earth, that is sufficient by morningsound15. This is canonverse and very very well written. It has everything you could want- including a Clexa marriage :)
The White Queen Running by KL_Morgan. Clarke wakes up wearing tattoos of the ice nation. Really enjoy the world-building here!
Break Slow by SlowMoRevolution. Ahhh I love this fic! Wonderful writing, slowburn, intense. Clarke lands a role in a new play being produced by a famous theater company…and Lexa is the owner of said company. ;) Dodge & Burn is also probably my favorite one-shot ever, it’s so fucking steamy, right up my alley!
This is Heaven in Hiding by orangeyouglad8. There’s no one Clarke Griffin loves going up against in court more than Lexa Woods. And there’s no one Clarke Griffin hates going up against in court more than Lexa Woods. Lexa always knows just how to get a rise out of Clarke, how to ruffle her feathers and make her work for it. Winning against her is a unique challenge that Clarke thrives on. Little does she know that Lexa’s particular talents transfer out of court and into the sheets as well. But, she’s about to find out.
After You by chrmdpoet. This modern au is so sad and heartbreaking, because Lexa is abused by her father Titus from such a young age. Starts from childhood and Clexa are soulmates.
Easy O by Avarosier. Lexa’s next-door neighbor is always having super loud sex that Lexa can’t (really can’t) get out of her head, so when Clarke asks Lexa to be a nude model, of course she’s not going to say no. I actually wish this was longer and had smut in it, but I still love it. Also loved Pink Skittles by Avarosier. Clarke and Lexa do this film project that involves two strangers kissing, but that sexual thirst means it doesn’t end there. Lexa also has a tongue piercing Clarke is very fascinated with.
Spelling It Out by geyranger. I LOVE this fic! Clarke and Lexa are rival apprentices to different wandmakers, and they drive each other crazy by popping up sabotaging the other’s efforts to procure various ingredients for wand-making. Super cute, well-written, and an HP au!
Skylark by RunawayMarbles. A superhero fic that’s pretty damn cool. Clarke and the gang had illegal experiments done to them by Mount Weather and it gave them superpowers. They fight crime while trying to remain anonymous as well. This story is so clever and incorporates the City of Light/chips/ flame so cool, and Clexa are badasses, and just…read it, trust me.
Break Your Plans by pizzaoctavia. Lexa is a hockey player in this au too. Linctavia’s sexcapades force Clarke to go over to Lincoln’s apartment to study, and his roommate Lexa usually happens to be there too.
Are you a kidnapper? (Because you abducted my heart) by 707. Clarke and Lexa have ‘hated’ each other since childhood, partly because of the sexual tension between them. When they’re kidnapped and trapped together, that sexual tension comes to a head.
Stellar Collision by TheSSClexa. When two soccer stars collide, it’s a super nova.Meeting as stark enemies, both Captain of their respective high school soccer team, Clarke and Lexa unknowingly meet again as roommates their freshman year at Stanford. Complete. Also love Titanic: the untold story; it’s not your typical Titanic AU and doesn’t follow the movie at all. This fic is hot and a fantastic read. This author has plenty of other amazing fics too, such as Devotion to Duty, Breaking the Ice, Mt. Flannel with Alexiarexia, etc. Really fond of Hart’s Divide right now too!
Where There Is A Flame by eternaleponine. This fic is MAJOR slowburn <3. Lexa is depressed and in a bad place after losing Costia, Clarke is not in a great place either because Finn is a creepy stalker, and the two girls end up helping one another out, becoming friends, and falling in love. Their relationship is heart-achingly beautiful and it’s well-written. Complete. This author has a ton of other great fics too, like Color War, Love in Comic Con, Born to be Yours, and many more! This is probably THE most prolific writer in the whole Clexa fandom, I don’t know how she does it, so many great fics!
Help, I Need Somebody (Not Just Anybody) by thesummerofrain. Poor Lexa is totally fucked up from losing Costia, and Clarke is a volunteer on a chat line that ends up helping her. It’s heartbreaking, sweet, and Clarke and Lexa are adorable. Hasn’t updated in a long time, but I have hope it’s going to update again.
An army of one by gostorain. Military academy au, Clarke and Lexa are totally adorable. This hasn’t updated either…but again, I have hopes!
Heads Up, Eyes Open by Superskygrounder. This fic is cute. I like the beginning of it the best, with Clarke and Lexa as rival hockey players that have a soulmate connection they don’t understand.
Empath by RaspberryTree. Lexa is a writer at ALIE, a tech mega-corp. One morning, she inexplicably wakes up with the ability to feel other people’s emotions. Her next encounter with the office receptionist, Clarke, is a lot more powerful than she knows how to deal with.
I Wanna Be (One Night Stand) by seaunicorn and Possibility Days by adreamaloud and daneorange are both fics celeb au fics that are great! The first one is where Lexa’s the daughter of a hotshot hollywood producer and Clarke’s a big celeb shooting her father’s movie and she shouldn’t get with her (but totally does), and the second fic is where Lexa is an actress too who shouldn’t fall in love with her co-star Clarke (but totally does). Both great!
But still good by thrace. This is a cute fluffy modern au where Clarke has to take Octavia’s kids to a soccer game and meets Lexa, who happens to be the hot coach. Thrace has a ton of other wonderful fics too, check them out!
Love on the Ground by Heda’s wolf (the baddest wolf). This!! fic!!! is fucking fantastic. Canon-verse, angsty, so, so good. Just read it.
Time Heals by Girls_aremyweakness. Lexa’s parents die so she has to take over caring for her little brother Aden and hires Clarke as a babysitter while she works. She and Clarke end up falling for each other, and Clarke fits right into their new little family. It’s actually not angsty at all, and is pretty much just fluff.
Touch or Carry by paint_the_brain. Olympics au where initially it’s Lexa/Anya vs Clarke/Raven, but then Lexa permanently injures Raven. Lexa and Clarke are forced to team up but Clarke is determined to hate Lexa, until she pulls her head out of her ass and realizes she likes her. Indra and especially Gustus are hilarious in this.
Find your way to me by lightfighter08. Lexa and Anya move in with the Griffins for foster care after Lexa comes into the ER with injures and Abby rescues them. Lexa and Clarke are so gay for each other. This whole family is fucking adorable, especially Jake Griffin and Abby, AKA perfect parents. So fucking cute. Edit: Warning, some of my earlier comments on this aren’t exactly true- it doesn’t stay fluffy, there is MCD and it gets angsty. You’re warned!
Once Upon a Confession by AntaresChild. A modern au AKA Lexa is an innocent cupcake until she accidentally gets high on a brownie and admits her gayness to her roommate Clarke, who then takes Lexa under her wing and brings her into her super gay, sinful partygirl lifestyle. It’s great, hilarious, and I want Clarke and Lexa to pull their heads out of their butts and be in love already.
You’re magic & you’re real by unicyclehippo. OH MY GOD THIS FIC. Is SO well-written! Octavia is actually the main character, and is non-binary in this au. Clarke has dyslexia, Lexa is on the autism spectrum, and this fic is just fucking fantastic, okay, everything about it.
Mysteries of Love by 10milestereo. There’s another apocalypse, but Clexa are soulmates, and there’s a happy ending.

Now the bombs have struck and Clarke is stuck in a shelter with this Lexa and she’s also pretty damn hungry.
Open Windows, Open Hearts by sheisme. Clarke and Lexa are neighbors with windows that look directly into each other’s bedrooms. Some naughty times ensue…but also really cute fluffy times :) smut that develops into an adorable relationship. 57,926, complete.
The Spectator by amybot3000. Lexa is so thirsty you almost get second-hand embarrassment reading this. Lexa was once the greatest tennis player in the world until an injury stopped her playing. She commentates now, and an impressive up-and-coming player Clarke Griffin ends up catching her eye, mostly due to the fact that her bouncing around means certain…parts….bounce…..and the world can’t help but to notice that Lexa has definitely noticed that. It’s hilarious.
A Series of Avoidable Events by toolateintheday. Another coworker Clexa au, more sexual tension, just yas. Clarke Griffin works for renowned advertising company, Trikru Incorporated. She’s coasting through life, unsure of what she truly wants to do and settling for mediocrity. Its not her dream job but it pays the bills. It’s comfortable, familiar and what she needs. All that changes when the company bring in Lexa Woods, a new visionary, with the aim to shake things up. Clarke finds her entire existence unsettled by the arrival of her new boss who is as intriguing as she is intimidating. Can they put aside their differences and work together?

(You Stole My Heart) like stealing candy from a baby by rsconne. This is ridiculous, like Clarke steals valentine’s candy out of Lexa’s cart at the grocery store and they end up going home together to binge netflix and just…read this. Read this and pray for a part 2.
Autism by Diaph. Hot as hell, sweet, pure, this fic is wonderful. Lexa has autism and Clarke is her girlfriend and perfect power couple doesn’t even begin to describe them.
The Starkeeper’s Guide to Love and Soccer by MusicLurv. 23 chapters so far of “what the hell is going on.” This fic is adorable; Clarke is frustrating and not what she seems, Lexa is pretty much exactly what she seems: the epitome of the ConfusedLexa™, an utter useless lesbian.
Everything is the same as it was by AphroditesLaw. It’s everything you hate yourself for hoping for- Clarke and Lexa, all alone in the world, no other people but each other. I mean, they’re a bit upset by it, but I’m sure once the slow burn catches up, they’ll be glad for the freedom and privacy ;) This fic is great! I also love My Favorite, a super sweet one-shot where everyone has soulmate-identifying marks. Lexa doesn’t have one. Clarke does. Happy ending! And Gold, Red where Clexa are murder wives, and Our Galaxy, where Lexa’s a witch who’s promised Clarke’s first-born, and then my very favorite of this author’s is probably A Bit of Clarity, where everyone has visions and Clarke has one about sleeping with the woman who keeps coming into her coffee shop! Also check out Seven, the Lost Queen, her Truman AU, her Future Clarke au…gah! This author write a ton of awesome creative stories!

The sequel to bargaining for more where six years later Clarke is trying to win Lexa back, but I’m pretty sure it’s Clarke’s heart being stolen in the process- by Lexa’s little son.

All That You Got (Skin to Skin, oh my God): about Clexa from childhood up to college. From childhood to college. Mostly thirst and fluff, with a small amount of angst since Lexa’s dad is a dick, but Clexa love each other so fuck him. Smut too, of course. 58,689 words, complete.
Also just started up a new fic that will eventually be quite smutty. It’s called Castaways and is, you guessed it, about Clexa stuck on an island together. They’re soccer rivals since childhood who are forced on the same plane…which ends up crashing and leaving them stranded on a deserted island.
My longer fics:
The Clexa Surrogacy AU: Between Our Love, where Clarke is Lexa and Costia’s best friend and offers to be their gestational surrogate when they discover they can’t have kids; then Costia dies and Lexa and Clarke are left to pick up the pieces. It’s currently around 88k and in progress. Super heavy and angsty…but there will be fluff and happy times, too!
The Triwizard AU: Those Icy Fingers Up and Down My Spine (That same old witchcraft when your eyes meet mine). It’s an hp au where Clarke just wants to get through her last year at Hogwarts in peace, her world having been upended a year ago when her father was mysteriously arrested and sent to Azkaban, but instead she finds herself in the middle of conspiracies when she’s chosen as Triwizard Champion despite not entering her own name. She definitely shouldn’t fall in love with the enemy, Durmstrang’s Champion Lexa Woods, who is full of secrets and every bit as determined not to develop feelings, but of course, they’re fuckin soulmates, they belong together! (This takes place 100 years after the events of Harry Potter, too). It’s at around 480k and complete!
I have some other fics too but I’ll leave it at that. If anyone wants to reblog and add their own favorites, please feel free!!! Let’s spread the love (and I am always up for new Clexa fics to read)
