* This author has many well-written fanfictions, mostly for Sorey/Mikleo. Special mention to an ongoing Knight and mage AU, beautifully crafted, suspense is written so well I could actually feel as if I was the one in their situation experiencing their panic and despair. Of course, there's also sweet sweet fluff but all the more delectable cause it feels like they earned it. Most of their one-shots are relatively longer than normal, but it gives them the space to explore the characters rather than rushing to a happy ending.

Which is now a collection of fics around this very concept and multiple authors have written for.

* ''Comments:'' A crossover AU with ''Anime/{{Noragami}}'', replacing the concepts of the Seraphs, the hellions and the Shepherd with concepts adapted from the other series. A very well written and fun AU that puts an interesting spin on Sorey and Mikleo's usual dynamic by having Mikleo start out as technically older than Sorey (since unlike seraphs, Noragami Spirits don't age and Sorey is a child god when they first meet), and the differences brought on by the whole God and Regalia dynamic in contrast to Shepherds and Seraphim in canon.

''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12346884/1/Love-Feels-Like-Home Love Feels Like Home]]'' by Saoirse Parisa
* Recommended by: TwilightPegasus
* ''Status'': Complete
* ''Pairings'': Sorey/Mikleo, a touch of Alisha/Sergei
* ''Synopsis'': Everything was going great for Sorey until a drunk driver kills his mother. Now, Sorey has to move to a new town, away from everything he knows and loves, to live with a distant grandfather he hasn't seen in years. He doesn't know how to cope, but a new friend just might be what he needs to deal with his new circumstances.
* ''Comments'': I follow this author quite a bit, and her works never fail to disappoint. She takes a dip into Zestiria's many, MANY [[AlternateUniverseFic alternate universe]] fics, particularly the college/modern AU, but with a twist: [[DisabledInTheAdaptation Sorey is made autistic here.]] And it works really well! It's very well written, the characters are all enjoyable and realistically flawed (Including Sorey, who was admittedly rather vanilla in the original game), the storyline and romance develop in a very organic fashion, and the author's depiction of autism is very nuanced and sensitive, which is especially good since the author is autistic herself. I took the liberty of making a trope page for it [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Fanfic/LoveFeelsLikeHome here]], it's just that good!

* ''Synopsis:'' In a version of Zestria's world watched over by a pantheon of gods and the spirits known as regalias who serve them, the most popular and beloved god is The Shepherd, a god of protection who fights Phantoms and purifies the malevolence they spread. Unfortunately the Shepherd has a bad habit of sacrificing his life for the sake of his mission, but fortunately, a god will always be reincarnated so long as he has followers. One day, a recently reincarnated Sorey discovers a beautiful white haired spirit crying as he hides from Phantoms in a lake of sacred water and decides to make him his regalia. He names the spirit Mikleo and vows to make him happy. Mikleo vows to protect him no matter what.

* This author is a go to for Sorey/Mikleo fanfictions. Although the majority of their fics are oneshots there are a couple that are multiple chapters though they are works in progress. Their most most famous one might be Our Historia which is a post canon fic. If you're a fan of the pair I recommend checking them out.
