- An excellent author of not only Loveless stories/one-shots, but of a few other animes as well (though this troper has only read the Loveless ones). Although most of the stories center around Ritsuka and Soubi, one of the stories (A Day for Couples
) also focuses on Natsuo X Youji and Yuiko X Yayoi. And then Truth Begins Now centers around Ritsuka (and Soubi) bringing Misaki (Ritsuka's mother, to those unaware of her name) to a mental hospital and the hardships he faced in dealing with this decision. The rest are mainly Ritsuka X Soubi. All of the stories are beautifully written and provide depth and details and all those good things a good story should have.

- Another great author who has multible stories of Loveless (among other things) that this troper enjoyed reading. All of the stories are focused on Ritsuka and Soubi. If you read Bookwrm 389's stories, then I strongly suggest reading these stories next.
Shy by Bookwrm 389.

- Status: Complete
- Pairing(s): Ritsuka/Soubi
- Synopsis: A short story which happens after Soubi accidentally walks in on Ritsuka after he just came out of the shower.
- Comments: It's meant to be funny and is quite cute. Rated T for the mention of nudity, but nothing is explicit. It's also excellently written.

- Synopsis: Ritsuka often wondered if it was wrong to use his brother's Fighter. But one evening, he and Soubi discover something that might make it okay.
- Comments: A story featuring the joyous event where the introduction of the Loveless fighter is no longer an issue. And Soubi didn't even have to kill anyone.
A Cloud In My Sight by Aoi Umi Oppalene.

Anything for You by Yuu-chi.

- Pairing(s): Ritsuka/Soubi
- Synopsis: Just as the click of his bedroom door locking at night was a sound so familiar to Ritsuka, the noise made as Soubi peeled the band-aid free of its wrapping to place on his sacrifice was a sound all to familiar to Soubi and his heart ached for that.
- Comments: A one-shot of Ritsuka retreating to his room to nurse his newest wounds at his mother's hands. Soubi comes (without needing to be physically called) to help. A cute peek into an apparently repeating situation that shows the closeness of the two.

- Pairing(s): Ritsuka/Soubi
- Synopsis: An unpleasant memory leads Soubi to realize just how different Seimei and Ritsuka really are. And how thankful he is for that.
- Comments: A short, somewhat fluffy story where Soubi is deep in thought and Ritsuka shows how kind he is in comparison to his brother (which isn't terribly hard to do, but the story is cute anyway).
