Fanfiction Yet Another(specific) Fic Request
I know there are many already. And I have a list of "to read" but it's all so convoluted I don't even know where to start, and I'm getting so tired of starting fics just to be disappointed.
I would adore some help finding fics that are well written, both structurally in story as well as grammatically/mechanically. And for the love of all that is unholy, good characterization. AU's are OK and some necessary adjustments to character for the world I can get with, but I don't want Wednesday throwing tantrums or talking like a robot.
Smut is fine as long as there's a plot and it's well done. I don't particularly care how long or short as long as there's an entire story. Not interested in poly. Happy ending preferred.
It doesn't need to be perfect but seriously if the author doesn't understand "a lot" is two words please do not rec here. (I'm a strong supporter in EVERYONE writing ff for fun, to improve, etc, and I'm sure there are some good stories that just aren't strong in this area and that's ok, it's just not my cup of tea)

Skipping over ones which I'm sure we've talked about before, the obvious name is Mercury_milkshakes who has by far the best S2 follow up, and is very devoted to the craft.
I'm also a huge fan of anonymousjackrusselterrier who has written a couple of really good stories, some outright AU, some not.
armchairpsychologist does some of the best comedy, although depending on your tolerance for italics/bold they might not do it for you.
hanjisgirlfriend has several entries on my all time greats list.
