Which Platforms Host Original Rhett And Link Fanfiction Content?

I've stumbled across most of the good stuff on Archive of Our Own, honestly. It's the go-to for a lot of fandoms now, including Rhett and Link's. The 'Good Mythical Morning' tag is pretty active. The real secret is how you sort—hits and kudos give you the popular ones, but sometimes the best-written pieces have fewer notes because the fandom's niche. I found this incredible, slow-building friends-to-lovers AU set during their early YouTube days that ruined me for a week; it had maybe 200 kudos but the characterization was spot-on. Tumblr is another hunting ground, but it's more scattered. You have to follow specific writers and hope they reblog others. Wattpad has some, but the quality varies wildly. It's a mix of sweet, domestic fluff and some truly bizarre AUs. My bookmark folder is a mess of tabs from all three places, and I regret nothing.

Man, the Zone's fiction scene gets wilder every year. If you're hunting down original stuff specifically about Jinx and Ekko from 'Arcane', the immediate gut reaction is AO3, right? It's basically the cathedral for that pairing. The tag system there lets you filter for 'Jinx/Ekko' and then you can sort by 'Original Work' if that's your jam, though most people are writing in the 'Arcane' fandom tag. But original content? That's a murkier term. Some writers will post AU concepts that are so detached from Piltover they're basically original fiction with the characters' names slapped on—cyberpunk settings, high school dramas, you name it. I've seen a few of those on Tumblr too, hidden in long text posts or linked from someone's Carrd site. They're harder to find because they don't always get tagged consistently. Discord servers for the ship are another weird ecosystem. Someone will drop a Google Doc link in a fanart channel, and you've got this 50k-word story that only twenty people have ever read. It feels like discovering a secret. Wattpad has its share, but the search function is a nightmare, and you'll wade through a lot of... let's say, less polished work to find the gems. The thing is, 'original content' in fanfic often means 'not an adaptation of a specific episode' rather than wholly invented worlds. So you might need to adjust your search terms—look for 'Alternate Universe - Modern Setting' or 'Canon Divergence' instead. Personally, I stumbled onto this one noir-style fic on AO3 where Jinx was a private investigator and Ekko a beat cop; it barely referenced the show's lore, but the dynamic was spot-on. That's the kind of treasure hunt you're signing up for.

Honestly? I wasn't expecting to get hooked on Rhett and Link fanfiction, but some pairings just have a weirdly specific chemistry that works. The dynamic between the two of them is already so lived-in and complex; you can build anything from that foundation. I've seen some really interesting explorations of Rhett/Stevie, which might sound odd at first, but there are a few authors who write it with this profound, quiet respect for their real-world professional relationship, turning it into a study of creative partnership and unspoken understanding. It's less about romance in a traditional sense and more about the intimacy of building a universe together, which feels very true to the 'Mythical' ethos. Then there's the classic Rhett/Link, which is obviously the bedrock. The best ones don't try to force them into a standard romance mold. They take the decades of friendship, the bickering, the shared history, and the deep care, and ask 'what if that took one more step?' The tension comes from the potential cost—not just to them, but to everything they've built. A story that handled that beautifully was one where the confession happened during a late-night edit session for 'Buddy System,' of all things. It felt painfully real. I'd also throw in rare pairs involving other crew members in poly configurations. Rhett/Link/Stevie as a triad, navigating the business and their personal lives, can be a fascinating managerial and emotional nightmare in the best way. Those stories often have the most realistic conflict because the stakes are so tangible. The pairing you end up loving might be the one you never considered, based purely on an author's ability to mine the existing dynamic for new depth.

Saying which platforms host that specific pairing's fanfic is tricky, since most fans don't post exclusively to one corner. I've seen Kazuya/Chizuru stuff absolutely everywhere you'd expect for a massive anime/manga like 'Rent-A-Girlfriend.' The Archive of Our Own tag for them is packed, obviously, and it's probably the most organized spot to filter by trope and rating. But I also regularly stumble across stories on fanfiction.net under the 'Kanojo, Okarishimasu' category, though the tagging system there is a nightmare compared to AO3. Wattpad has a surprising amount too, often mixed in with reader-insert or more dramatic AU plots. It's a different vibe over there—more episodic, sometimes shorter chapters. And you can't forget the forums and smaller subreddits where people share Google Docs links or post snippets directly in threads. Those are harder to search, but they exist. Honestly, if you're hunting for it, starting with AO3's pairing tag and then branching out based on author notes or cross-posts is your most reliable path.

Ever since I fell down that rabbit hole, I've been checking Archive of Our Own religiously. The tagging system is a lifesaver for sifting through 'Carter Kane Chronicles' fics, and it feels like the main hub where the dedicated writers post their multi-chapter stuff. You can filter by their relationship tag, which helps a ton. I sometimes see shorter pieces or drabbles pop up on Tumblr, though. People will write a quick scene based on a headcanon and post it with the tags, but it's not as organized. FF.net has some older content, but the activity seems quieter now compared to a few years back. The search function there is a bit clunky for finding a specific pairing like that.

Archiving something this specific, cross-fandom and cross-platform, is basically digital archaeology. Official spaces usually aren't built for that kind of remix. I'd say the two places you're most likely to find them are Archive of Our Own and FanFiction.net, but your experience will be very different on each. AO3's tagging system is a lifesaver; you can filter for the two characters, sort by kudos, and find hidden gems in minutes. The quality tends to be higher, too. FF.net is older and clunkier, but some authors never migrated, so there might be older stories there you can't find elsewhere. It's worth checking both and maybe even using Google search tricks like site:fanfiction.net \"link\" \"saria\" to dig deeper. The hunt is part of the fun, honestly. You could also check dedicated 'Legend of Zelda' forums or Discord servers, though those stories are often shared as direct links or snippets in threads, which makes them harder to organize and search through long-term. Sometimes a niche author posts exclusively on their personal blog, so following reblog chains on Tumblr can turn up stuff that never made it to the big archives.

Man, the idea of 'exclusive' Zelda fanfiction isn't something I've really bumped into, at least not on a single platform. Most writers post their crossover adventures wherever they have an audience, you know? You'll find the deep cuts scattered all over. I got absolutely hooked on a 'Zelda'/'Fullmetal Alchemist' fusion on Archive of Our Own a while back, where Link's Sheikah Slate tech clashed with alchemical principles. The author only posted it there, so I guess that makes it exclusive to AO3 by default. Honestly, the more niche the crossover, the more likely it'll be a lone wolf project living on one site. Forums like SpaceBattles or Sufficient Velocity sometimes host unique, in-progress stories you won't find elsewhere, often with a heavier focus on world-building logic than romance. That's where I stumbled upon a wild 'Legend of Zelda' meets 'Dark Souls' saga, which was... brutal, but fascinating. So I'd say don't chase a platform for exclusives; chase the weird plot bunnies. The best ones tend to settle in one corner of the internet and dig in.

Just thinking about their dynamic gets me scribbling in the margins of my notebook. The central tension is built-in, right? It’s this decades-long partnership that’s more intimate than most marriages, a shared language and history. Writers have to navigate that fine line between deep, abiding friendship and whatever romantic or more intense undercurrent they want to explore. You can’t just toss them into a love story; it has to feel earned, like a natural progression from what we already see. The best fics I’ve read use their established roles—Rhett’s thoughtful, slightly melancholic depth versus Link’s chaotic, heartfelt energy—as the engine. The conflict never feels manufactured. It’s usually about one of them risking the entire foundation of their life’s work for a feeling, and the other being terrified of that change. A lot of the development hinges on quiet moments that the format of their show doesn’t allow. Fics will explore the car ride home after a long shoot, or a late night in the editing bay when they’re both too tired to keep their guards up. That’s where the unspoken things surface. The physicality is another huge tool—a hand on a shoulder lingering a beat too long, or Link impulsively hugging Rhett and both of them freezing because it’s different this time. The history is always the third character in the room, the weight of all those years together either holding them back or finally pushing them forward.

Let's be real, that's a super niche crossover ship blending 'Arcane's/'League of Legends's Jinx with 'RWBY's' Weiss Schnee, so dedicated platforms or archives are basically nonexistent. What you've got are the major fanfiction hubs where someone might have tossed a one-shot into the void. AO3 is your primary archive for anything this specific because of its powerful tagging system—you can search by both characters and the relationship tag 'Jinx/Weiss Schnee' or 'Zero/Iris' depending on the fandom naming. I've seen maybe three, four fics total over there, and they're usually tagged under both 'Arcane (Video Game)' and 'RWBY.' I wouldn't hold my breath for FF.net; its search is clunky for crossovers, and the culture there leans away from super obscure pairings. You might strike gold on Tumblr or Twitter with someone posting drabbles in the tags, but it's ephemeral. Honestly, your best approach is to lurk in both the Arcane and RWBY fanfiction circles on Discord servers—sometimes writers share WIPs in there that never make it to the big archives. It's less about finding a hosted library and more about catching a whisper in the right channel.

Honestly, if you're specifically looking for that Pit and Link dynamic with a lot of emotional weight, I'm not sure any one platform is a goldmine for it. It's a pretty rare crossover, 'Kid Icarus' and 'The Legend of Zelda' don't overlap much. I've seen maybe a handful of stories total, scattered to the winds. Your best shot is probably Archive of Our Own. The tagging system is your friend there—you can filter by both characters and the 'Angst' or 'Emotional Hurt/Comfort' tags. I found a couple where the authors really leaned into the existential stuff, like Link being a silent, weary hero and Pit being this bright, ageless being confronting that kind of burden. Wattpad might have some too, but in my experience, the quality and the depth of the tension can be really hit or miss. Sometimes you get pure fluff or crack treated seriously. Tumblr used to host a lot of shorter, mood-piece fics for niche pairings, but good luck searching that effectively now. Really, it's less about the platform and more about digging. I'd search on AO3, maybe check if there are any old posts on fanfiction.net (though that site feels kinda dead for new stuff in small fandoms), and maybe even look for a dedicated Discord server. Small fandoms and rare pairs often cluster in tight-knit communities rather than being platform-centric.
