6''[[http://archiveofourown.org/users/Schemilix/pseuds/_digital%20cairn _digital cairn (Schemilix)]]''
7* Recommended by: Yahya
8* ''Comments:'' A quality author who manages to convey the ambiguous, mysterious and uncertain atmosphere of the game in text form. Focuses especially on the character of Royce Bracket.

14* Recommended by: Mandichaos
15* ''Status:'' Complete
16* ''Synopsis:'' You know you only could have met her in Cloudbank. Another city, a static city, one that didn't rewrite itself every other week, and your paths never would have crossed. So no matter what else happens, you'll always love the city for that. (Pre-canon leading up to that last concert; how the man in the Transistor and Red met and fell in love.)
17* ''Pairing(s):'' Red/"Mr. Nobody"
18* ''Comments:'' This is second person POV, and entirely in "Mr. Nobody's" POV (so we don't get Red's perspective), but it's second-person POV done right. The point of view works because it comes from a character who's deliberately undefined in canon, and it's one of my favorite pre-canon how-they-met stories for these two.

28* Recommended by: MikeShogunLee
29* ''Status:'' Complete
30* ''Synopsis::''Later, he asks about it. His voice thrums with static, with a slight laugh. [How did a nobody like me ever stand out to someone like you?] It seems like a hypothetical question. Even if it isn't, she's far past the ability to answer. (Red & Blue/Subject/Boxer/etc.)
31* ''Pairing(s):'' Red/Mr. Nobody
32* ''Comments:'' Takes place before the game, standard shipping stuff, along with "How did we end up here" type of deal. Basicly how Red and Nobody ended up together, and how they ended up on the Camaradas hit list.

34[[WMG:General Fics]]
35''Stories focused on the family and the friendly relationships of the cast. Plot-focused stories or light day-in-the-life stories. Pretty much anything that isn't focused on romance.''

37''[[http://archiveofourown.org/works/2369180/chapters/5231762 preprocess()]]'' by pseudocitrus
38* Recommended by: Mandichaos, [=TypeProton=]
39* ''Status:'' Complete
40* ''Synopsis:'' ''It's okay,'' she told herself. ''It takes a couple days to find your Selection.''"Maybe even weeks," the Instructor told her, when Sybil next asked. And then, later: "Or even a month or two." (Sybil Reisz, school, sandboxes, and Selections.)
41* ''Pairing(s):'' None
42* ''Comments:'' The first part of the author's ''compile()'' trilogy, but surprisingly (for me) the most compelling. I read it out of curiosity and was immediately sucked in; it takes a side character with almost no (intelligble) dialogue in-game and fully develops her background and coming of age, and does some incredible world-building on top of that, delving into the perceived importance of Selections and how it shapes the attitudes and behaviors of the students. It also gives a lot insight into Sybil, why she wound up with "Supervision" and "Organization" as her selections (but instead of a bureaucrat wound up as a socialite), explains why she had that beach sandbox, and foreshadows how she was pulled into the Camerata. I only realized after reading it that the story was mostly original characters - only two are actual canon characters. That's how well all the original characters fit into the world of Cloudbank. The subsequent stories, ''link()'' and ''start()'' are also great and lead into the actual game, but ''preprocess()'' deserves special mention for how much it does with so little character canon and makes me wish there were more for Sybil in the game itself.
