History FanficRecs / FinalFantasyVIII

*** Lately a [[TearJerker really good reason]] for the name change is revealed. Anyway, the amount of work and dedication the author puts into it really shines through, with him slipping in information about how the wider culture works, as well as setting up XanatosGambit upon XanatosGambit from every direction. While the characterization [[BaseBreaker has turned some readers off]], it nevertheless stands as a proud achievement for the FFVIII fandom.

* ''Pairings'': N/A (or every woman for herself with squall)
* ''Synopsis'': the hilarious and absolutely self-effacing tale of what takes place after FFVIII ends, "the stalker's log" is the tale of Fuujin as she scales walls, hides under beds and fights off hordes of female ninjas,[[FinalFantasyVII people who have been stabbed through the stomach]] and others, all just to get her love to notice her.
* ''Comments'': a very good story, with plenty of well placed humor, mostly derived from other games by squaresoft/square enix. Traingham is also a master of using plot holes from the original game for situational humor (such as the character named "zell's girlfriend"). all in all, i'd give this a 9/10, with the 10 dropped because of his '''ludicrously''' slow update rate (roughly once every 4-5 months).

''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/233154/1/ Griever]]'' by Larathia

* ''Synopsis'': What is the connection between Squall's ring Griever, and the Guardian Force? A sequel of sorts of the game itself which further explores Squall and Rinoa's relationship, the nature of Guardian Forces, and the origins of Griever.
* ''Comments'': In the midst of her creative explorations of how the sorceress-and-knight pairs work and what Guardian Forces really are, Larathia also nails characterization to the wall, not just for Squall and Rinoa but for everybody else down to the supporting characters, reminding me why I like all of them so much.
** Warning: contains a mostly non-explicit gang-rape as significant [[RapeAsDrama plot device]].

* This author has written 8 stories and going onto a 9th one, ranging from lemony and fluffy to serious to humourous, all of which excel at well written and compelling CharacterDevelopment. A great series of writing for any FF8 fans.

** Be forewarned, this is a very LoveItOrHateIt adaptation due to the extensive changes to setting, backstory, characterization, plot details, and even the main character's ''name''. Some readers enjoy these changes very much, while others don't; YourMileageMayVary.

** Be forewarned, YourMileageMayVary. Some tropers disagree on whether this is a good story or not; there are serious changes to the story and characterization. And Squall's name is changed to "[[WallBanger Thay]]". See this page's discussion page for details.
