Edit for December 28th: approx. ten fics added!
I've made this list mainly for personal reference, as it is decidely more handy than having a billion bookmarks to the stories I've enjoyed and may wish to read again. I've added details that will be helpful to anyone else who wishes to utilize this list, since I've decided that I may as well share it. I've categorizied the fics by general mood evoked, so that I can find what I'm in the mood for easily. This is not a perfect system, needless to say, as some fics are more difficult to place. I hope that you find something new that you enjoy! And if there's a story you think is great that I haven't listed, feel free to let me know! I adore a good rec, and plan to update this list every so often. I think I've fixed all the broken links, but please tell me if I need to fix one.
Love,
LucyMay
