Chatness Combat by 5TERMINA5

• Sypnosis: Madness Combat... but it’s a chatfic! After Deimos decides to create a chatroom for definitely professional reasons and nothing more, Hilarity Ensues as this gets derailed quickly and the AAHW of all people get involved. However, there is more than just that, as it seems like after a certain emperor-god tried to revive himself, time and space are distorted as a consequence, resulting in anomalies like Hofnarr and Jebediah co-existing with Tricky and Jebus. It looks like the AAHW and the Status Quo have to team up to fix this mess. Hilarity still ensues.
• Comments: Unlike the original series, this fanfic has the vibe of your typical chatfic, mostly inspired by Gravity Falls with its usual silliness and the occasional serious plot lines. Take a read if you feel stressed; it might give you a good laugh.

there's a body in the room by buglegs

• Sypnosis: In an alternate universe, 2BDamned/Doc searches for the closest thing he has to a brother: the Auditor, while hiding his true nature to his co-workers in the process. However, certain little events, like taking Deimos under his wing, him taking in Sanford in turn, and the appearance of none other than Hank J. Wimbleton, this simple mission of finding his brother starts to become complicated as he starts to care for these people who have nothing to do with it. Especially the last one...
• Pairings: 2BDamned/Hank, Deimos/Sanford
• Comments: This fanfic is one of my favorites. The subtle little things, the found family elements, and even the relationships between the characters are amazing, even things outside of the pairings. There is also some the art that appears from time to time, and they are gorgeous.

Teleport Interference by MAN_ticore

• Recommended by Spinycemb
• Status: Complete
• Synopsis: At a classified A.A.H.W. base that receives all shipments and agent transfers through the on-site teleporter, things go from standard procedure to messy very quickly as Hank hijacks the teleporter mid-shipment, cuts a swathe through the personnel and evades the sole agent sent after him; MAG Agent Torture.
• Comments: MAN_ticore's style is unique among Madness animators, in that he uses 3D animation rather than 2D. This does little to change the spirit of the subject matter, as it still uses body language excellently and provides brief bouts of levity to ensure that at the end of the day, it's still identifiably a Madness story at its core.
