''Gintama Chromatic Chronicles'' is a series of ''Manga/{{Gintama}}'' fanfics by [[https://archiveofourown.org/users/Ki_no_Shirayuki Ki_no_Shirayuki]], which attempts to [[OriginalFlavour follow the humorous style of the source material]]. True to its name, each entry of the series is [[ColorMotif based on a color]], whether of an object prominently featured in the story or of clothing the characters wear. The stories are not directly connected, but they all take place in chronological order with the first chapter of each story starting from the second one having a brief mention of the events of the story taking place before it. The series is as follows:

* '''Blue Light Keeps You From Falling Asleep, So Don't Use Electronic Devices Before Bed''', Blue: The Odd Jobs help an Amanto boy named Andon find his missing brother.
* '''Don't Wash Colored Clothes With White Ones''', Red: An Amanto spaceship captain named Grey kidnaps Kagura mistaking her for a woman he [[spoiler: accidentally]] proposed to.
* '''Dun Stop Destorying da Prepz Till da Goffik Blak Beest Stopz Groiwlng''', Blak: A TrollFic take on ''FanFic/MyImmortal'' in which Ebony teleports into the Gintama universe and corrupts everyone into goffs, [[BreakingTheFourthWall the author included]].
* '''Yellow Is a Hard Color to Wear''', Yellow: The heroes become yosakoi dancers and encounters a pair of evil musicians.
* '''Gold Looks Best Against a Purple Backdrop''', Purple: A kimono house is haunted by a vengeful spirit and the Odd Jobs set out to stop him.
* '''If You Meet Your Doppelgänger, Either of You Are Going to Die Within Two Years''', Green: Katsura encounters his doppelgänger Katsura-otoko, a successful supermodel who resembles him in all but personality, and ends up having a PrinceAndPauper switcheroo.

The series can be read [[https://archiveofourown.org/series/869523 here]].
----
!!Tropes:
* AnachronismStew: The yosakoi dance wasn't invented yet during the time Gintama is set in. Shinpachi lampshades this, but is handwaved away since Gintama basically ''runs on'' anachronism.
* AnIcePerson: The Amanto brothers in Blue are capable of becoming this once they make themselves cold enough.
* BittersweetEnding: Blak ends with Enoby vanishing from existence and sanity restored [[spoiler: but also with Yamanami going missing for no apparent reason and Serizawa himself infected with the virus.]]
* BrotherSisterTeam: The two shamisen players in Yellow.
* CampStraight: Katsura-otoko is this in spades. He employs feminine speech, [[TheDandy overly fixates on his sexual appeal]] and behaves in an all-around sassy manner, but is still very much heterosexual, as he has a legion of good-looking women working at his estate.
* CostumePorn[=/=]KimonoFanservice: A ''lot'' in Purple, seeing as it features kimono craftsmen.
* Crossover: The third entry is one with FanFic/MyImmortal.
* GenderBlenderName: Green features a guy named Konohana Sakuya. [[spoiler: It helps that he is a CampStraight supermodel.]]
* IdenticalStranger: Katsura-otoko to Katsura. He looks like him, dresses like him and is noted in-story to even ''sound'' like him.
* HumongousMecha: Piloted by Sakuya at the end of Green. [[spoiler: His fiancee Niniko pilots an even bigger one.]]
* MadScientist: Konohana Sakuya [[spoiler: a.k.a. Katsura-otoko]] who has invented many types of drugs, runs drug rings, is a misogynist, builds and pilots a HumongousMecha [[spoiler: [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking and]] takes up work as a supermodel under a SecretIdentity to fund his illegal researches.]]
* PrinceAndPauper: The whole plot of Green [[spoiler: which allows Katsura to uncover [[SecretIdentity Katsura-otoko]]/[[MadScientist Konohana Sakuya]]'s evil scheme.]]
* RougeAnglesOfSatin: Happens a lot in Blak, intentionally.
* SanitySlippage: Anyone who's infected with the goffik virus in Blak, including the author. The prose gets crazier and crazier the worse her condition gets.
* VerbalTic: Katsura-otoko has a habit of adding ''ara'' in front of his sentences.
