These are recommendations made by tropers for ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2'' fanfics, all of which have to be signed to stay on the page. Feel free to add a fanfic of your own to the list, but remember to use the template found [[FanficRecommendations here]]. After a few samples, you will be able to note the interests of the tropers recommending them, and judge whether you might be also interested in a certain 'fic.

Reviews of fanfics are encouraged, but if you choose to write one, please make it substantive, and give specific details about what you liked / disliked in the fanfic. If you want to give a fanfic a thumbs-up without writing a full review, you can add your troper handle to the Recommendations Line. Please refrain from posting "Comments" or Administrivia/ConversationInTheMainPage though; that goes in the discussion page.

* Recommended by ObsidianFire, Anyar
* ''Comments:'' About half of their fics are already recommended below. Fantastic characterization and world building. Stays true to the spirit of canon for the most part and mainly explores the misadventures the teams get into during their downtime. May contain aspects of horror and/or hurt.
* ''Pairing(s):'' Generally, none. The author sticks the teams being [[FireForgedFriend fire forged]] TrueCompanions. However, non-explicitly stated Sniper/Engineer is common.

Many of her stories tend to be novel-length, though, so that's something to keep in mind.

* Recommended by: Kayuri
* ''Status:'' Ongoing[[note]]updated semi-regularly[[/note]]
* ''Synopsis:'' Victor Schwarz, an anxiety-ridden mess of a human, gets a strange, extremely secretive, extremely specific offer to work at RED. He accepts, and as time goes on, he realizes he's changing. They're all changing. He wasn't so… morbidly curious before. Oh God. Oh-Oh God. What's happening to them??

Or:
A buncha random guys work for RED and slowly realize they're turning into our beloved psycho war criminals.

* Tags: Canon-Typical Violence, Loss of Identity, Medic-centric, Pyro-centric, Scout-centric
* Comments: A frankly delightful piece of writing, with so many small hints for future plot points. The characters are believable, and go from being their own people into something resembling the mercs in a manner that isn't obstructive or weird.
