Tastes Like Diabetes is now a disambig between Sweetness Aversion and Sickingly Sweet. Zero Context Example entries and entries that do not fit anywhere else will be deleted.


* Comments: This person knows each of the characters inside and out. Even though this is rated T, it wasn't too dark for my taste. Anyone who wants a more LighterAndSofter fanfiction (at least compared to the one above) without going into TastesLikeDiabetes territory and people who like InterspeciesRomance stories should give this a read. The OCs don't feel out of place either, and it tackles Chomper's 'growing up' problem in a way I feel would work if the Land Before Time franchise went in this direction. Overall, this is a fantastic story!

''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13516136/1/Mentors-of-Yesteryears-War-Before-Time Mentors of Yesteryears]]'' by [=The-Mr-E=]
* Recommended by: @/gutza1
* Status: Complete
* Synopsis: Years after their childhood adventures, the Gang are taught in the ways of combat by two familiar mentors, while slowly stumbling onto a vast world-encompassing sharptooth conspiracy that has been following them since their youth.
* ''Comments:'' Has some minor background sci-fi elements. Overall, this fic serves to setup the author's next work, "The War Before Time," by showing the Gang reaching their teenage years and becoming formidable fighters in their own right.

''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13963429/1/War-Before-Time-I-Fall-of-the-Valley War Before Time I: Fall of the Valley]]'' by [=The-Mr-E=]
* Recommended by: @/gutza1
* Status: In-progress
* Synopsis: Backed by a sinister alien force from beyond the Mysterious Beyond, sharptooth society prepares to declare war on the Great Valley, and the newly-formed Valley Guard are the only ones who can stop them.
* ''Comments:'' The sci-fi elements are minor at first but ramp up as the story progresses. It's meant to be a continuation of the Rainbow Face plotline from VII.

More accurate.


* ''Comments'': By this point, the whole FantasticRacism in the franchise has been done to death, but karkovice somehow manages to make it feel fresh and new again. Much of the series focuses on Little Foot as he tries to be a fair leader in a changing world. In the first story, the dinosaurs of the Great Valley (and the readers as well) learn that the Sharpteeth are not a bunch of mindless, ChaoticEvil creatures. They have a culture, feelings, and families, just like the Leaf Eaters, and a lot of drama comes from the long held prejudices against Sharpteeth that permeate the valley. In the second, Cera develops PTSD, after the ordeal in the Sharpteeth lands, and must rely on her friends to help her cope. In the third, Ducky and Petrie become mates (followed by Cera's young cousin and Chomper's son in the fourth), and they must deal with the prejudice and hatred that follow. Occasionally, karkovice will launch into PurpleProse, but overall, the stories are well-written, and the characters are well-developed.

* ''Coments'': Set right after the first movie, it follows the gang of five as they reveal to their parents that they formed friendships with dinosaurs of a different kind, and wish to keep it that way. Special mention for Cera standing up to her dad, as well as apologizing to Littlefoot for insulting the latter's mom, and Littlefoot being forced to question his late mother's remark that all Dinosaurs stick to their own kind.

* Seconded by RejectedOne123. This is certainly not a fanfic for those who are not mature enough for such content. That being said, DarkHououmon incorporates excellent description in order to make the reader feel like that they are 'watching' the story play out before their eyes. Despite having some elements that certain LBT purists may find unappealing (such as magic, spiritualism, and a hint of slash) the story is not bogged down by such concepts. Rather, those concepts serve the overall plot and feel of the story quite well. This is certainly a must-read for anyone who is interested in LBT fanfictions.

* ''Comments:''Of many future fanworks in the fandom,this one truly stands out as a well-thought and done story that could totally work as a movie!!! It has a very DarkerAndEdgier and mature tone that is quite enjoyable, and makes it very interesting.It doesn't have many chapters as of now, but is quickly becoming a sensation.

* Synopsis: Brother and sister Fyn and Zaura, two Amargasaurs living near the Big Water journey into the Mysterious Beyond following an age-old trail left by their father- a trail that supposedly leads to the mythical Great Valley, where dinosaurs once lived in harmony. Their trek takes them through the very heart of the Beyond, where forces beyond their understanding have been at work for years. Together with Sol the lone Longclaw, left to fend for himself at an early age, and Rear the dishonored Fast Biter clinging onto the last shred of her honor, they must unravel the dark secrets plaguing the Beyond, and work to finish what their father started when he ventured to the Great Valley so many years ago.
* ''Comments'': An almost very underrated story that focuses on a pair of Amargasaurus siblings (also known as sailnecks), a naive Suchomimus (longclaw), and a dishonoured Utahraptor (fast biter) as they journey across the Mysterious Beyond to the mythical Great Valley to finish what the siblings' father started so long ago. The characters are very well thought of and the way how Rear explains to a confused Sol on sharptooth beliefs and death that makes you rethink that death is not always the end. With every chapter that's posted up, I always find myself enjoying it even more. It gives you the feeling of DarkerAndEdgier the more the story goes on and the further the journey goes on. Character growth is really good as well and I find myself connecting with them as they go through the perils of the Mysteious Beyond. I definitely recommend it.
