25* Recommended by @/RadicalTaoist, Black Charizard, @/SpaceChief
26* Everything done by Agent Orange is constructed from pure high-density win. I recommend starting off with ''[[http://www.big-big-truck.com/bebop/ao/freaks.html Freaks Flock Together]]''; it has the perfect balance of touching moments, character development, ''Bebop'' style, snarky humour, and musical references. [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/176351/ AO can be found on fanfiction.net as well]].

36* Recommended by eagle108
37* Two completed crossovers at the moment. While setting apart scenes could've been done better with some line breaks, metgear5 is practically a genius on the first crossover that features the Bebop crew dealing with a Franchise/{{Predator}}, where the action and explanations happen quite realistically (or as realistic in-universe for the Bebop setting). The second crossover immediately follows after the Bebop crew handle the Predator, this time it's them and two ISSP cops with very familiar names versus a certain [[Franchise/{{Terminator}} highly-advanced AI gone bonkers with its nigh-indestructible robots]]. The third fic continues with the Bebop crew versus Skynet, this time following details from the [[Film/Terminator2JudgmentDay second]] ''Terminator'' movie, and uses some features relating to ''VideoGame/HalfLife'', but at the moment it's dormant.

63* ''Status'': Complete
64* ''Synopsis'': A continuation of Cowboy Bebop, of sorts, starting at the ending of the final episode. Reader saves Spike from certain death at the front steps of the Red Dragon headquarters, then reunites him with the other members of the Bebop crew. Reader is persuaded to stay on the Bebop by Spike, who points out that she is the only medical professional on the ship. With Spike being hunted by the remnants of the syndicate, and Reader's own past to consider, a wild ride is sure to ensue.
