rainsometimes | Master List of posted fanfiction (Reply)

Here's all my fanfiction so far, save a couple of anonfics.

For Gintama and other fandoms, fics are simply listed alphabetically within each fandom (except for Gintama tweetfics at the bottom of that section). Most Gintama fics I've written are shippy, with Gintoki/Katsura being the biggest ship.

For One Piece, the fics are sorted into three sections: shorter gen fics (under 1000 words), longer gen fics, and shippy fics regardless of length (though most are quite brief). The genfics are sorted alphabetically (apart from some short promptfics). Among the shippy fics, all pairings with two fics or more get its own subsection, while the rest are put into "Other pairings" at the bottom.

My AO3 page can be found here.

So much love for Gintama! It took me until 2018 to get into it, but I'm making up for lost time as best I can now. Sorted alphabetically, gen and shipfic all together, with a couple of more ephemeral stuff at the end.

The Air Was Clear, But All I Could See From The Mountain Was You, You, You. Otae/Kyubei, G. Set after the genderswitch arc. On Dreamwidth here.

Annoying Friends Are No Less Annoying When They Come With Benefits. Gintoki/Katsura, NC-17/Explicit. Set before the Benizakura arc, no backstory spoilers. On Dreamwidth here.

A Thousand Threads. Filk set to the melody of "Pray" (the first Gintama opening), focusing on the Odd Jobs trio and the feel of early Gintama.

Back To Back We Still Can Fight Again. A Gintoki/Katsura filk that can also be read platonically, set to the melody of "Shura", the fifth Gintama ending theme.

Bathing In A Time Of Peace. Gintoki, Katsura, Takasugi, Sakamoto, Mutsu. PG, gen. Set shortly after the war. Four brief character studies tied to bathing. Angsty with backstory spoilers. On AO3 here.

But Your Soul's Still Shining On. Filk set to the tune of "Tougenkyou Alien", the ninth Gintama opening song, full version. About Odd Jobs Trio and Gintama's Edo in general.

Human Beings Are Simple Creatures. Gintoki/Katsura, five chapters. Rated NC-17 for chapter 3, PG-13 for chapter 1, G or a light PG for chapter 2, 4, and 5. Spoilers abound. Also posted to Dreamwidth in separate posts for each chapter, starting here.

Instead Of Admitting You’re One Day Late To The Party, Just Claim You’re 364 Days Early, Gintoki/Katsura, around 4400 words. Katsura forgot Gintoki's birthday... or did he? Domestic, low-key, silly.

There's No Together, There's No Apart, There's Only Impossible Longing. Gintoki/Katsura/Takasugi. 5 chapters plus a prologue. Finished. Angsty.
