All of this. All of it. I can't understate my confusion when I wandered out of the previous fandoms I wrote for - a couple RPG fandoms, where OCs are basically in every fanfic because the game protagonists are customizable, and everyone's fine with that - only to find that for some reason in other fandoms, Reader and OCs were being sneered at as if somehow a few less than stellar fics are indicative of an entire style or genre (and as if people don't judge fanfic as a whole under the same excuse of, 'well it's so bad!'). And then the list just grows longer. Like you said, what the fuck are you reading if it's not OC, not reader, not 1st POV, and not canon characters in new scenarios??? What is left???
One reason I tried out Reader/2nd POV was because it was the only perspective I hadn't tried writing yet, and I liked trying new things in writing. It was fun, you grow as a writer, and half the people complaining should really give the fics a try, or try writing it themselves. It might be eye-opening for them.
Because there is no bad POV. There is no bad genre. There is no bad style. Reader and OC are no different. There's just good or not so good examples.
Your personal tastes are not indicative of quality.
i didn’t know that reader insert fics were considered “bottom of the barrel” by fandom at large? ngl that hurts the shit out of my feelings because just like every other genre of fiction, there’s shining examples of genre work, and, you know, not-so-shining examples.
idk, it feels unfair to me that reader inserts get a bad wrap compared to literally every other type of fic 😭

narumitsu fic recs - part 1
I've been putting together fic recs for a while, trying to sort things into different categories rather than just sharing one big post of stories that are all over the place in type, length, etc. - I've appreciated all the fic recs I've gotten on reddit and in nrmt discord servers, and wanted to compile things in such a way that it makes it easier for those who are interested in reading more fanfic! while I still have decent amount of fics bookmarked on my "to read" list, i have read a not insubstantial number this year (don't mind me just rolling into the fandom nearly 23 years late - actually I really liked AA when I first saw GG play in 2019, bought the game b/c of it - & I liked nrmt but something about JFA was the turning point for me to become just totally normal about them)
anyways, i digress...
I'll start off with my favorite contenders for long (more than 50K words) canon-compliant (or mostly canon-compliant fics) - some are more dramatic and some are more light-hearted
obviously since this is a recommendation list, I may make comments about how I feel about something with a fic that you don't agree with - I only say this to point out some of my thoughts regarding the fic, not to start a hc war... and I'm definitely not trying to say "this author is wrong" or anything like that, just pointing out my personal opinion
a long way to fall by prospectkiss
this is the first long fic I ever read for nrmt and I can't recommend it enough. Heads up that this fic is E - Taking place between T&T and AJ (handwavey give them more time in this time period than in canon), this is also a case fic that majorly ties in to the plot - you've got romantic tension, mutual pining, drama, angst and a great (and spicy) ending. word count: 78K POV: rotating between Phoenix and Miles why it’s a must read IMO: I admit I am partial to getting together fics that are pre-disbarment or very early 7YG, the PINING and build up is incredible and it’s very difficult to put down but especially once you get about halfway through, it will be hard to stop! I think I read this in only 2 sittings.
the long way home by griffonage
a fic that deserves SO much more love - it is so incredibly well-written and heart-wrenching. the very beginning covers major events of the first trilogy quickly while the majority of the story takes place during the 7YG. Phoenix is always right there for Edgeworth, but Edgeworth is pretty great at making terrible decisions -including running away from things he wants deep down- and that finally takes its toll on Phoenix, whose anger is very justified. Per the tags: ??? to friends?? to it's complicated to it's VERY complicated to... unsurprisingly this makes for a pretty angsty relationship & moments that make you just want to shake Miles (and Phoenix, but a lot more Miles). This is also an E fic FYI, as far as I remember that stuff is only short scenes in a few places as opposed to like, a whole chapter devoted to it. word count: 84K POV: Miles why it’s a must read IMO: there are multiple little case fics along the way that are interesting, this story truly made me sad I wasn’t also working and exploring in Europe, Trucy!!, the OCs are very well done, it’s a great character study of Miles, and writing wise, this is one of the most well-written stories I’ve ever read among fanfic and published novels written in my lifetime
trace (vestiges) by FaultyParagon
this fic is pretty well known, and while it may not rank quite as high for me now as it did when I first read it, I do regard it highly. I don't know how much editing/beta-reading happened for it, so my one little thing about it is that the grammar mistakes happened a little too frequently to gloss over, but still not terrible (I know we all write for free but with frequent or significant enough errors, I'm taken out of the world easily, maybe that's not a problem that affects the majority of readers, idk). A mostly filling in the gaps fic that takes place from AAPW to right before DD - it's not exactly a slow burn, but just because they manage to get together earlier rather than later doesn't mean they aren't going to encounter obstacles in their relationship. This fic is M - it sort of rides that line between M and E in my opinion, as the sex isn't very graphic but not just glossed over either. word count: 225K POV: Miles why it’s a must read IMO: touch-starved Miles, again, I’m partial to them getting together pre-disbarment, despite it not being exactly a slow burn it does have quite a build up, I really love seeing Miles have a lot personal growth, especially in regards to handling his emotions, during his “choose death” year and during 7YG as well as how he is there for Phoenix and Trucy during that time
turnabout feelings by ssygir
a 7YG fic where Edgeworth requests Phoenix's help to research trials by jury, bringing Phoenix and Trucy with him to Paris - where they unintentionally get caught up in a murder investigation, and Phoenix realizes his feelings for Edgeworth are definitely not platonic. While my personal view is that Phoenix has known he's been in love with Miles for a looooong time, I can appreciate a good fic where he's just now figuring that out. Some little things about Edgeworth's characterization feel off to me, but maybe that's just me. This fic is E, but that's pretty much limited to one chapter. one small note: this fic does have a follow up, but hasn't been updated in over a year (although the author has said they plan to finish it at least! so hope is not lost yet) word count: 76K POV: Phoenix why it’s a must read IMO: it’s an early 7YG getting together story, the case fic is fun, not a total sloooooow burn but definitely builds up, a good pick when you want a more lighthearted story with very little angst
dating for a turnabout by Mikomikono
technically set in that tiny window between AAI2 and Phoenix's disbarment, Miles asks Phoenix to join him to investigate a smuggling operation at a resort - except they find out that the event taking place at the resort is a couple's retreat, and the only way to have full access is to pose as one... oh and of course Larry happens to be there too. This one is a fun case fic with mutual pining, only one bed and a sprinkling of angst among some silliness and fluff - while I wish there was a little more to the ending, it was a very fun read, T rating. word count: almost 90K POV: rotating between Phoenix and Miles why it’s a must read IMO: the author has little profiles and evidence info for the case posted for each chapter, very fun! I’m picky about fake dating stories and I think this one does it very well, and again, I really like seeing pre-disbarment getting together - and they are pining fools here, it’s good stuff
chasing history by SlatedForAbandonment
post canon, Phoenix invites Miles to stay in his guest room while he's in LA working on his PhD. Some small notes on timeline - this is where it gets a little loose with canon compliance, although the author does note that in the tags - Edgeworth is already Chief Prosecutor but currently taking a leave of absence to work on his dissertation, but hasn't found permanent residence again yet, despite this being a few years post SOJ (at one point it is stated that Apollo is 28) - I also feel like a lot of Edgeworth's behavior/reactions are more fitting of trilogy era Edgeworth, or even early 7YG... all that being said, it is a super slow burn, well-written with fun dialogue and very sweet moments as well as a bit of angst. rating is T. word count: 68K POV: rotating between Phoenix and Miles why it’s a must read IMO: even though I feel like this story would more realistically take place much earlier in canon, you get a great slow burn with plenty of incredibly sweet moments along the way that just make you melt
the catch-up game by theacegrace
post canon, Trucy is on a year-long magic show tour and Phoenix is left feeling like everyone keeps moving on and leaving him behind, while also dealing with some realizations regarding one Miles Edgeworth. again, my personal take is that Phoenix would've realized this long before now, but this story is an interesting Phoenix character study and once you get about 3/4 through the story, the situation is very tense - it's hard to not read this whole thing, or at least the back half, in one sitting. rated T. word count: 66K POV: Phoenix why it’s a must read IMO: it’s always interesting to consider that prior to his disbarment, Phoenix was the more self-assured and bold one of the two when it came to matters of the heart, and then afterwards that essentially flips for a while - now Miles has gained a lot of confidence and gone through a lot of emotional growth (Phoenix starts to gain this back a lot after becoming a lawyer again, but he’s definitely not just back to trilogy-era Phoenix)
it would feel so good to make you mine by hi_its_ellis and lowbatteryhealth
post DD, this is an unusual slow burn - both Phoenix and Miles know they're in love with each other, but they've come to an unspoken agreement on how to handle this - there's a winner and a loser, and the "loser" is whoever cracks first. honestly, another fic where I just wanted to shake them until they came to their sense, but it's very fun and sweet, T rating. word count: 54K POV: various why it’s a must read IMO: it’s tagged idiots to usdiots LMAO, so many sweet moments among the aggravation - they are BOTH moron-sexual, your honor, and you’ll want to strangle them /affectionate…
a turnabout toast by ideny
summary by author: (after the events of AJ) an estranged Phoenix and Miles respond to a friendly challenge from an unexpected source: do three things each to fix your lives. this fic is technically the least canon compliant because we of course learn in DD (and this fic was written before the release of DD) that Phoenix and Miles did spend time together during his disbarment, at the very least in Europe helping Miles research. So this is a hell of an angsty read, worth it for the story-telling despite that it departs from canon in that way. Not rated, but I don't recall anything above T rating stuff happening in it. word count: 68K POV: rotating between Phoenix and Miles why it’s a must read IMO: damn they really go through it in this one, dealing with the aftermath of the events of AJ is very interesting, lots of angst but I feel compelled to tell you don’t worry, the ending will ease your pain
Obligatory recs:
legal partners by miggy
project: matchmakers by WingSongHalo
how to court a fool in under three months by snowyrunes
All 3 of these are post canon getting together fics, AND all 3 are told from various POVs, not just Phoenix and Miles - there's a reason they are some of the most well-known ones - PM is probably the most fluffy with the least angst (and has a very cute multi chapter follow up), followed by LP (has a fairly short E follow up) - HTCAFIUTM is the slowest burn (it also has a follow up that hasn't been updated since 2022... which stinks because it did leave off on a bit of a cliffhanger and I really wanna know what's going to happen lol)
I have yet to read the highly regarded canon-compliant long fics listed below, but they are on my to-read list!
you ever been in love? by hechima
saturation by tiedyed trickster *
indefensible by zombolouge *
a brief for the defense by Ophelia_Writes * (this has now been orphaned FYI)
turnabout dishwasher by zuzsenpai
*indicates that it has not been finished yet, possibly won't ever be
If you know of any other 50K+ canon-compliant fics that you'd highly recommend, please let me know!
my other posts will be for AUs, chapter fics shorter than 50K, one-shots (might have to divide those up by theme), probably a NSFW set as well if there's interest!

20 questions of fic writers
Thanks for the tag @creativenicocorner!
Tagging: @dreamcrow @renee561 @megan0013 @ihateblocks I know it's NaNoWriMo so feel to ignore this one this busy season, but likewise if you're not tagged and wished to join in, feel free to do so. 🤔 I feel like I'm forgetting several people as it is.
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
20 (and 1 draft)
2. What's your total AO3 word count?
710,674 so far (it should be 717,602 once the draft is published)
3. What fandoms do you write for?
Tales of Arcadia, Dungeons and Dragons TTRPG, and this other one I won't share because I haven't finished the goddamn draft for yet and as such haven't published.
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
Under the Wave
Primordial Awakenings
Whispers Within
Honey and Lemon
Primordial Awakenings - Deleted Scenes
5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
Yes, always, and I try to give out as much as the commenter puts in. So an emoji gets an emoji, a paragraph gets a paragraph, a short essay gets an essay, etc. I do this because I think it's nice balanced response policy and I don't want to overwhelm readers who sent a short sentence of approval with a wall of text over how I think they're great (even though they are, in fact, quite great.)
6. What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
🤔Under the Sun: The White Rabbit.
7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
Whispers Within.
8. Do you get hate on fics?
Not directly, certainly not in the comments of a fic. I know my ships and blorbos are not popular with everyone, but honestly this is how it's always been. I typically like writing the weirdos and cardboard cutout characters who get/got treated dirty in canon.
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
Yes I do now. I put it off for a long time because I wasn't confident writing it enough to share it publicly, but I started publishing that kind of thing last year in attempt to Get Good.
It's essentially a personal exercise routine, highly recommend this to anyone struggling with a particular element of writing. Obviously it doesn't have to be even remotely spicy, I know not everyone is comfortable writing that kind of thing and I certainly expect anyone to read mine. It's just I was struggling with interpersonal physical interactions, choreography if you will, and the easiest way to practice these was either smut or combat scenes, and combat scenes seemed kind of a massive downer.
10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?
To the best of my knowledge, I have never in my life written a crossover, nor do I currently have any wish to. The absolute closest has gotta be including a lot of OCs to fill roles that aren't quite filled in the canon cast, which as we all know is not quite the same. Full respect to our troops in the crossover trenches, I just don't think I have a brain that works like that.
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
I've definitely had art stolen (rip that one cute gnome PC I did for a friend), but never a fic... to my knowledge.
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
No but I've had my grammar and spelling corrected once or twice when I attempted a language I am not fluent in and made mistakes. (I owe you my life.)
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
I have co-written before, back in the day, and I'm not taking about rp forums but the dark fantasy/sci-fi writing project I shared as a teen with my brother and friend at the time. For fic specifically I've only beta'd.
14. What's your all-time favourite ship?
As a polyamorous multishipper this is a homophobic question. There's room on my top shelf for as many I want. 🤔 Many are Morticia and Gomez Addams shaped, or whatever the fuck was happening in The Road to El Dorado shaped, one has to admit.
15. What's a WIP you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?
Eugh probably The Homework Squad (a ToA fic with multiple PoV about Strickler's time as a teacher before he left that position.) Maybe I'll get to it one day, but I have so many other fics I'd much rather be working on now.
16. What are your writing strengths?
I've been told that I am very good at character voices and dialogue, and that I have the ability to control the tension of any given scene with pinpoint accuracy and twist the mood like a knife in the reader's heart without it seeming unnatural. This might be my dark fantasy background coming to the surface, ngl.
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
These are such things that gets mentioned less in feedback because it would be a dick mood unprompted, but speaking as someone with no beta beyond myself and an ereader, I know that sometimes my prose can be stiff and awkward, and my sentences err towards the unwieldy to the point that reading aloud can be difficult.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?
Sometimes different languages can be important to the plot and characterisation, and in these cases I do write dialogue in other languages but also include translation RIGHT THERE for the readers instead of clumped down at bottom notes of the chapter.
Otherwise I will include a helpful little note in the dialogue tag to indicate if the speaker has switched languages.
19. First fandom you wrote for?
Tales of Arcadia.
20. Favourite fic you've ever written?
It's probably Primordial Awakenings, but again I still have a soft spot for Whispers Within, and most if not all of my fics really. I pour a lot of myself into my fics, so they represent not just the fic themselves, but the particular time in my life when I was writing them.

I was tagged for this by @mikaharuka and @mrsmungus
Tagging in to answer (not sure who all has been tagged): @lena-hills @hylianjo @winterlovesong1 anyone else who'd like to join. Let me know if you want to be tagged.
One-shots or multi-chapter: multi-chapter. Every once in a while, I do a one-shot, but it's rare.
Outline or No outline: Outline, outline, outline. lol
Betas or No betas: No beta. I wouldn't want to put anyone through dealing with me.
With OCs or Canon-only characters: With OCs. In the past, I've written a handful of stories with Canon-only. Because I'm currently trying to finish the story my 13-year-old brain came up with long ago, I am working with OCs. Most are background though. There's only one that's an MC.
Consistent releases or Whenever it's done: Whenever it's done. I've been doing a decent job of taking 10-14 days to write and edit a chapter of my long fic before putting it out there. Only to find so many more mistakes. Ug!
Canon/Canon or Canon/OC: Depends. Atm it's Canon/OC for one pairing and Canon/canon for the other.
Canon setting or AU setting: Canon setting.
Present tense or Past tense: Past. I'd make a mess trying to do present tense.
Take requests or No requests: Sort of. Not officially I should say. I've done two one-shots for a dear friend as we discussed possible ideas for more flashbacks. I'll always listen to anyone who has a request, but whether or not I'd take it, would depend on several factors.
Tumblr or AO3: AO3. Promote on Tumblr
Write on computer or Write on phone: PC. Although I do use the pen on my tablet to write if I need to.
Chapter Titles or Numbered Chapters: Titles
Shakespearean Comedy Or Greek Tragedy: If my stories fell into either category and, I'm not sure they do, it would be Shakespearean comedy.
One POV or Multiple POVs: Multiple POVs. I've only done one from a singular POV.
Reader-insert or Third-person: Third person. I don't really read reader-insert so it would be hard for me to write it. I'd probably fall back to third person, get frustrated, and scrap the whole thing!
Use of Y/N or No use of Y/N: No. I only found out a few months ago what this meant. Thanks, Reddit!
What rating: General Teen Mature Explicit: Typically, G-T. Although the more discussions I see on AO3's rating system I think I might need to bump up the rating on my Pretender story I'm bringing over from FFN. It's way darker than I remember.

2, 7, 8, 13, 17, 27, 30, 37 and 55 for the fic writer ask game!
Thank you so much!!
Get To Know Your Fic Writer!
2, 8, and 13 I've answered previously! Here are the rest:
7. How do you choose which POV to write from?
Most of the time, it just sort of feels right. I've tried to write Rae's POV in third person here and there, but it just doesn't flow the same way it does when I write it in first person. I think on a technical level it's about the tone of the story and how internal or external the voice needs to be, but really it just depends on how the writing flows for me.
17. What do you do when writing becomes difficult? (maybe a lack of inspiration or writers block)
In the short term, I'll take my dogs for a walk. It gives me a chance away from the cognitive input, no screens, no distractions, just a chance to look at what's around me and let my mind wander. It helps me sort out tricky knots all the time!
In the longer term, I pick up a new book or two. I think of it as "recharging" my words, and diving into a good book is a great way to get the writing flowing after it's been stuck for a while.
27. What is your most and least favorite part of writing?
My favorite part is when I really fall into a scene I love, and it all just flows. Sometimes the scenes are so vivid it's like I'm watching a movie in my head, with distinct shots and camera angles and whatever else, and it's the best feeling when I'm able to match that pace getting it down on the page.
My least favorite part isn't even really about the writing itself - it's the waiting game after posting a new fic or chapter, hoping that people will see it, like it, and maybe leave me a comment or to. There's nothing more disheartening than posting something you worked really hard on and having it met with absolute radio silence, or having a friend promise to read one of your fics and then just putting it off... and off... and off. I know that sounds a little self-centered of me to say, and I don't mean it like that, I just really want people to share my excitement about the story.
30. Do you share rough drafts or do you wait until it’s all polished?
I don't usually share rough drafts because I don't really have rough drafts. I have the outline of where the fic will go, but I write and post each chapter as I go. And even in the timeline of an individual chapter, it's really just a single draft - getting the words on the page, a couple rereads and quick grammar/clarity edits, but then it's good to go.
37. How do you choose where to end a chapter?
I usually plan out what all I'm going to cover in that chapter (I outline each chapter after finishing the prior one) and find a way to wrap it up once I've met those goals. Or, if I'm struggling to find where to end it, I try to assess whether the issue is that I have too much or not enough, and either add a scene or pare down what I've written until I can find that flow again.
55. Of the characters you write for, which is your favorite? Has that choice been swayed at all by your followers/readers’ reactions to certain ones?
Of the canon characters, my favorite will always have to be Angel (Warren Worthington III). He's so incredibly close to my heart in so many ways, and writing him is really cathartic - and also just really fun! This hasn't really been swayed at all: there are more characters I enjoy writing now, but he's been my top favorite since the beginning
Of my OCs, they're all fun in their own ways, but I think my top favorite is Quinn. She's got so much personality, her struggles echo my own in a really cathartic/comforting way, and the scenes just really flow when I write her. But that favorite bounces around a lot - depends on what I'm writing, what stage/chapter I'm at in the story, and what my friends have been reading of mine.

i got new rules, i count 'em
so these are the only ones off the top of my head, but i will add any others i think of. i'm not looking to be a dick-tator here, but i want this to be fun for everyone. i'm operating under the assumption that everyone has read and agreed to all of them. claiming you didn't read them won't save you from your one warning or being blocked immediately if you commit a serious offense.
minors dni if your age is not in your bio where it can easily be seen that you're at least eighteen, it's likely an automatic block when you follow me. right now, i'm trying to build up my interaction, so i have been dming people to check their ages. if i don't get a response within a week, it's a block. please make it easy to see that you're 18+.
if you have a problem with what i've written, take it up with me do not attack anyone else in the comment section if they agree when you don't. i see enough hate everywhere else on the internet and media, so this is going to be a safe space. naruto is a happy thing for me in general, and i intend to keep it that way, but the real world always seeps in. if you see a problematic comment that says something you find upsetting on more than a personal level, dm me, and i'll delete it if i find that it's provocative or offensive or if enough people see it that way, even if i don't. i can be very tone deaf through text, so things will go over my head that others don't appreciate.
no ship wars, or character bashing as i said above, this is going to be a safe space, and no one deserves to have their comfort character/ship bashed in a space where they're not expecting it. if you venture into visible anti territory, that's your fault, but this is not anti territory. specific critiques about a ship or character are acceptable, but no "i hate so and so! they're so (insert generic insult)!" or "this ship is trash! they have no chemistry/they're so toxic/they never interacted!" attacking people who like what you don't will get you nowhere with me, and you will be blocked after one warning. i accept "i don't like this character for reasons a, b, and c, but i respect why some people do like them," and "this is my problem with this ship, but it has nothing to do with the people who do like it." do not bring up toxic fanbases (if you want to vent about one, by all means, message me, but that's not an invite to attack me if you don't like that i'm part of a fanbase you've had bad experiences with). i've had my fair share of dealings with some, but that's neither here nor there, and has no place in my asks or comments. let's just all be mature here, okay? this isn't the anonymous naruto confessions blog.
feel free to dm or send an ask for clarification if any of these are a little murky. i tried to cut out all the fat and only leave in what i felt was absolutely necessary.
list of what i won't write:
sasusaku i know i'm probably going to get some hate for this. i love them individually, and think those two have major best friend potential, but i've had bad experiences that have ruined them for me. they're the only pair i can think of that i'm dead set against specifically because of the characters themselves, but i'm sure there are more. most other ships (except those that fall under the below categories) may not be something i ship in canon, but i might use in au to help the plot. example: naruto and hinata.
just so you know, my favorite ships (some of these are crack that i love the idea of because of other fanfic i've read) are: naruto/sasuke, shikamaru/temari, sai/ino, kankuro/ino, itachi/temari, gaara/my oc, and sasuke/my oc. i will gladly include any of them in a story. any other pairs are probably safe, unless i realize i do have a problem i didn't think of beforehand. keep in mind that this is primarily a reader insert blog anyway, so unless you want something like a second person pov through a specific character, canon characters should always be to the side, just helping the main character along (or the main character helping them along) through the story.
adult/minor relationships the lone exception is if the minor is sixteen/seventeen and the adult is only two years older (this is by the age of adulthood in the states). i will not go any further than that. if you have an age gap in mind, the younger one has to be eighteen minimum, and even then, i don't like the idea of age gaps of more than three or four years until they've both made it to/through their late twenties. it's just not realistic, and unless it's crucial to the plot that they have a huge age gap (sometimes it is), it doesn't need to be there. it's easier to write when they're in a similar stage of life anyway.
teacher/student relationships even if they're both adults after the fact. if the older party was in a position of direct authority over the younger party for a significant amount of time before the younger one became an adult, then i see that as grooming. i have to make it a blanket rule, even though there is some nuance to it. sorry, kakasaku shippers, i know there's a ton of you, but it's not happening.
any of the above can appear as a plot device, but they will not be glorified they also will not hold out until the end of the story. it will end in ugly ways at times.
the bottom line here is that i'm aiming for as much positivity as possible, but i will stick to my guns if you try to push me to do things differently than i want. suggestions are fine to make if you see where i can improve things, but demands are not.
love to you all, and let's enjoy this together, shall we?
