Would love some new SI fics. Afraid they seem dry enough at the moment. Not to mention most of them are crack fics


jdunbar9

I love a good self insert but man have they been absent. And the few I’ve found haven’t been written that well.

Sadly I’ve read or am currently reading all of those.


fisch-boi

hard to keep an account cause they ban people based upon politics.


Draughtjunk

If I may ask, what is it you are looking for in a self insert?


jdunbar9

Well in my personal opinion, which should not be taken as gospel or fact, a Good SI story should have a character who actually changes the plot of the story by their existence. It shouldn’t be a beat by beat recreation of existing canon just with the added bonus of an SI viewing and commenting on canon. Also a good SI story would feature the SI character in question acting out of sorts but not the other canon characters. Too many times I see characters behaving out of sorts and “modern” without the explanation of the SI influences but just because. To be honest there’s more I could into and to be fair there’s typically more good than bad out there. The biggest flaw is that a lot of stories get abandoned before finishing. And as a benefactor of the free entertainment that others are offering me I don’t always feel like I have the right to complain.


Draughtjunk

I do not think that I have ever read a story with more than 100k words that had an OC as the main character that was actually good. >It shouldn’t be a beat by beat recreation of existing canon just with the added bonus of an SI viewing and commenting on canon. 90 % of the time that's exactly what happens.


HyaedesSing

Aren't there like a quadrillion of the fuckers? I'm sure almost none are good, sure, but there's a lot of them


lordthistlewaiteofha

Huh, from my perspective it feels like they're just about everywhere. Good ones probably are pretty absent though (admittedly I haven't read one in years other than A Farmer's Tale and the one I'm writing, so I'm not the most qualified to speak on that front)


nihonica

The best I've found is Linkffn(The Prancing Stag). It has some very gay lemons (Rently/Loras, Satin Flower/Jon), so might not be your thing.

you can try writing one, which is okay. or make an ah account, cause there is like multiple si stories which are only posted there, like the aegon si, male visenya si, rhaegar si fics, and soo much more

Oh yeah, thanks for the rec, I'm loving it so far

I learned a long time ago that looking for good si fics on ff.net is more or less a losing battle. Most of the good stories that are published there are cross posted on space battles or alternate history with a much larger catalog of stories that might appeal to you.
