Michelle Thinky Thoughts, TT general 8 Comments

In todays episode we are playing the Fic Bracket Game, in which well loved fanfiction tropes battle it out against each other and we see who is left standing at the end of the day, as the ultimate fanfic we want to read!

This is part 1 of 2, due to a very long list of multi fandom fic recommendations! We wanted to give you time to actually read all of them, before we recommend even more fic! You can find the list here!

If you wish to play our version of Trope Brackets for yourself you can do so here!
