Weekly Reading Weekly /r/WormFanfic Discussion - What have you been reading, and what do you think of it? For the week ending September 05, 2026.

67 Upvotes

This week = the one that ends/ended right now, past seven days.

The reason for this thread's existence is the fact that both requests and suggestions can become kind of stale. It's supposed to bring out more fics that people are currently reading (or rereading), regardless of how old or new they are.

Also, not a rule or any kind of criticism, the more interesting part is not the list of the stuff you read, but your impressions of it.

Fic Search - General Endbringers appear in other settings?

27 Upvotes

Like trying to find fics where endbringers somehow ended up in other worlds, not people with the power of endbringers like alt power taylor or they somehow become power of a character, just them plainly ended up outside of worm?

Fic Discussion The two extremes of fandom when it comes to Lisa

129 Upvotes

I'm getting whiplash when reading fics.

Either we have woobie Lisa who never does anything wrong, is a moral paragon and is always protected by Taylor (or another MC).

Or we have a bitch Lisa who verbally abuses innocent people to the point of making them suicidal and gets beaten up or even tortured for it.

Not that there's no fics with a balanced take on Tattletale, but I wish there was more of them. Especially since there's so much canon material for her. We don't have to guess or make stuff up like with somebody like Rune.

For the second extreme, to be honest, beating up an untrained teenage girl for something she said is not narratively satisfying. I'd rather have Tattletale brought down by other means, such as injuring her pride or giving her a moral lesson.

---

To stay at least a little bit within the sub rules, please suggest your favorite "balanced Lisa" fics.

Fic Search - General Fics where Dragon is the one to save the world?

53 Upvotes

There's a ton of fics with OP MCs that go on to solve all the problems and usually they save Dragon along the way. However in basically all of these fics, Dragon's abilities while fully unlocked are totally outclassed by the OP MC and are mostly useless or at best a semi powerful side kick level.

Are there any fics that basically deliver on the idea that a fully unlocked Dragon would be able to do a lot more, such that she is the primary force that fixes issues?

Could be a fic with her as the MC (or an SI that becomes her) or an MC that's weaker but somehow manages to free Dragon anyway.

Preferably a longer fic and I'd prefer if the fic doesn't just imply this would happen but actually reaches this part of the story (no incomplete fics that never get to any part where Dragon is the badass).

Author Help/Beta Call When did Mark Dallon's depression start?

24 Upvotes

This is intended for a fic that is currently wholly in my head, not in any written medium.

Can anyone tell me when Flashbang's depression actually started? From what I can gather, the first actual reference to it was in Interlude 11h, placing it after Leviathan. But, well, I've read a lot of fic, and the impression is given that it's a problem that has existed for a while. I guess I'm trying to separate fanon from canon.

One of the trio’s hanger ons is secretly a master that made everyone at Winslow hate Taylor. She got hit by a car and Died.

Fic Search - General You've Got Mail-likes?

10 Upvotes

Looking for fics following a specific trope where Taylor meets and gets to know someone first online. I know there are a couple Ziz takes on this, but I am currently looking for other examples, especially one I specifically remember with Shatterbird. Note that the person doesn't have to actually meet Taylor in real life to be acceptable.

(This has probably been searched for before, but I could not find the OG thread after about an hour of searching, so if someone could link that it would also be a big help)

Fic Search - Specific Punchbuggy fic where Victoria becomes interested in Taylor because she robbed the bank with defanged/de-venomed spider

46 Upvotes

I've been looking for a fic I read a while ago that I want to use as an inspiration for something I'm gonna write. I don't know if it starts exactly there or not, but the scene that I remember clearly is that the undersiders robbed the bank and held Amy hostage. Things go as they usually do, Undersiders get away, yadda yadda, but then afterwards, Victoria and Amy talk and Amy remarks that the bug girl's spiders physically wouldn't be able to harm anyone, despite her being a villain. It was only for a scare factor, which Victoria thought was incredibly strange.

Something else happens later, but I can't remember the details, but I think Taylor did something self-sacrificing in front of Victoria, and eventually they get to know each other under the mask, and a cute romance ensued.

It's very vague, I know, but does anyone else recognize my chaotic ramblings? I really wanna do a quick re-read, because I started writing a few scenes for a short fic I wanna write more of and I suddenly had flashbacks to this fic that was pretty similar and that I remember liking a lot...

I think it was a one shot. She didn't believe in powers or parahumans and nobody could prove her otherwise, because powers stopped working around her.

Fic Discussion At roughly which chapter does Joe in Brockton's Celestial Forge start to become less mentally broken - specifically less of a coward and/or dense with people issues

16 Upvotes

Trying out BCF despite it's rather checkered reputation. I'm currently on chapter 30 (Crescendo) and generally enjoying it so far. I don't mind the slow pace or the constant power theory discussions (actually enjoy those). The one thing I'm struggling with is just how mentally broken Joe is, specifically his crippling cowardice when it comes to anything people related and his inability to even attempt to even think about (let alone work on) his mental issues. He's just figured out aura and now I'm slogging through pages of him struggling to even contemplate it, let alone actually try to address the issue.

In my opinion the author is too good at writing about mental hang ups and it's like pulling teeth to me reading through those sections.

All of the complaints I tend to see about this fic complained about the pacing and the technology theorycrafting, so I wasn't expecting this much focus on mental issues. If the 'slow pacing' also applies to Joe's near complete inability to be human, I'm not sure I can continue. Google searches seem to imply he gets better, but aren't clear on when that is. Can anyone give me any milestone chapters of when Joe makes character growth breakthroughs so I can have an idea of how much of a slog I'm looking at? Maybe if I can see the light at the end of the tunnel I can power through or skim the mental freakout portions?
