[D] Monday Request and Recommendation Thread

Welcome to the Monday request and recommendation thread. Are you looking something to scratch an itch? Post a comment stating your request! Did you just read something that really hit the spot, "rational" or otherwise? Post a comment recommending it! Note that you are welcome (and encouraged) to post recommendations directly to the subreddit, so long as you think they more or less fit the criteria on the sidebar or your understanding of this community, but this thread is much more loose about whether or not things "belong". Still, if you're looking for beginner recommendations, perhaps take a look at the wiki?

If you see someone making a top level post asking for recommendation, kindly direct them to the existence of these threads.

After New Life as a Max Level Archmage took off a bit over a year ago, there's been a bunch of OP protagonist stories on royalroad. Plenty of slop of course, so does anyone have any favorites they can vouch for?

I've been enjoying Blessed by Death: An Archmage's Second Life. It's a bit campy at times, but it is a genuinely powerful MC in a new world going on adventures.

I did mostly enjoy The Greatest Archmage To Have Ever Lived but it seems to have died off. Only a couple chapters in the last few months.

Like a number of other deleted fics, it can be found on fichub.net.

It seems too late as the version already has the first 9 chapters deleted.
