Mmm.  Yeah.

The serious scenes are done well.  The comedy sometimes, but having it go from emotive to 'We're just going to trick all our friends into a love motel' is kind of mood shock.
Well, Goodbye.

The third one of the series.  It's got a slightly amusing setup of Harry as an aggressively lazy fellow.  The kind of person who puts a lot of work into getting an extra hour of sleep.  The author clearly never intended it to go this far, so it goes more and more into stumbly land the more it goes, but some of the ideas are cute.
Well, Goodbye.

Feels kind of wish-ficcy, but sorta fun in some senses.  A lot of bludgeony about decisions being made.

A post 'Voldemort almost wins, but not quite' Harry follows Voldemort into an AU.  Teams up with the Flamels to try and wage a second war against voldemort, starting in the 4th year.  Ends up sorted into Slytherin and teamed up with "Dear god, don't stick me on team voldemort again.  That was horrible" Draco Malfoy.  As of the last chapter, it has shattered its rails, so it'll be curious where it goes from here.
Well, Goodbye.

Well, Goodbye.

I've posted about that over a year ago.  It's the only SAO fic I actively look for these days.  Updates tends to be months apart, though.

Also, spent the last two or three days reading this: http://www.wuxiaworld.com/cdindex-html/book-1-chapter-1/

https://m.fanfiction.net/s/6619298/1/Naruto-In-Hell

Oh. Naruto crossed over with Dante's Inferno. It's not... great? It uses words like "paper-cles" and "Hell Beast". It appears to be about 150,000 words of this:

Spoiler: ShowHide
QuoteTaking out the Holy Relic, Naruto aimed it at the nearest baby. The light shined on it, and the others stopped and looked on curiously. Suddenly the poor child screamed as the light from the medallion blinded it, but at the same time, the purification cleansed it, and sent it onward in a flash of light. The other babies stared at the spot where their fellow baby had been moments ago, before continuing their charge like nothing had happened.

Suddenly the babies were surrounded by smoke, and the children stumbled into each other blindly. When the smoke cleared there stood eight Narutos completely surrounding the babies. Each pointed their medallion at the babies, and all at once the room was filled with the Holy light of eight Uzumaki swirls.

-Naruto In Hell-

When all the children had been moved on, the door had opened on its own. As he walked out, Naruto was deep in thought 'What are babies doing in hell? There's no way a baby warrants eternal damnation!' He came out of his thoughts to see a Kyubi looking at him sternly "The unblessed infants. Baptism they did not have, the one gate to the true faith was never shown to these newborn souls. Limbo shows no mercy for these babes."

That the dead tree with its scattered fruit, a thousand times may live....

Agh, that was painful.  It needed extra spoiler.
Well, Goodbye.

Well, Goodbye.

Been a slow month huh.

Been reading some of Sarah1281's stuff.

Also reread, I'm here to help, which Jason linked a while ago (https://www.fanfiction.net/s/3337074/4/I-m-Here-to-Help)
Well, Goodbye.

Dracos

https://www.fanfiction.net/s/9199669/1/The-Witch-House not poorly written for the few chapters I read, but in a weird timeline place for a starter.  Basically sends Alucard, Pip, and Seras chasing down vampires in france.
Well, Goodbye.

It's like my whole alert list's gone dormant for more than a couple of months.

Yeah. Except for Worm stuff, nothing I like has been updating.

New stuff!  Now read...more of a scene than a chapter.  Kinda just a bite setting up the tournament.
Well, Goodbye.

Radiant Nights updated. The whole premise is interesting, and I'm really looking forward to further development. Heck, I have no clue how he'll pull all the summary's promised off. The chapters now are setting the stage for something grand. The Uchiha Massacre and the Hyuuga Kidnapping incident have been settled really interestingly due to the Yondaime's presence.

This is the same guy who wrote Howling Wind, and his other fic's hooked me just as well. I'm gonna keep tabs on this guy. The material he writes is fresh and I really look forward to his updates. He's been one of the only people consistently updating on my end, so there's that too. :^)

Lockhart self-insert. The good one, that isn't written by Skysaber:

The Skysaber one, on the other hand, turned out to be pretty much
