necromancy-centric fanfics that dive into their love story are my absolute jam. There's this one fic called 'Dead and Loving It' that reimagines Baz as a reluctant necromancer torn between his dark heritage and his feelings for Simon. The angst is chef's kiss, with Baz struggling to control his powers while Simon, ever the oblivious hero, tries to 'fix' him. The author nails their banter and the slow burn is excruciatingly good. Another gem is 'Grave Talk', where Simon accidentally bonds with a ghost tied to Baz's family, forcing them to collaborate. The necromancy here is more atmospheric, with creepy rituals and whispered spells that add layers to their emotional tension.
For something darker, 'Bones of You' explores Baz as a full-blown necromancer hiding his abilities from Simon. The magic system is intricate, blending 'Carry On' lore with original twists, like sentient shadows and blood magic. What stands out is how Baz's necromancy becomes a metaphor for his buried emotions—raising the dead parallels his struggle to resurrect their fractured relationship. The fic balances horror and romance perfectly, with Simon's unwavering loyalty clashing against Baz's self-loathing. It’s a gut-punch in the best way.

I’ve scoured AO3 for necromancy-themed Simon/Baz fics, and 'Shadow and Flame' is a standout. The premise is wild: Baz is cursed to hear the dead, and Simon—bless his chaotic heart—thinks it’s a prank until they’re knee-deep in a cemetery at midnight. The fic’s strength lies in how it uses necromancy to force vulnerability. Baz can’t hide behind sarcasm when ghosts spill his secrets, and Simon’s protectiveness shifts from frustration to fierce devotion. The magic feels organic, like an extension of their world, and the emotional payoff is worth every cliffhanger. Another favorite is 'Ashes to Ashes', where Baz’s necromancy accidentally resurrects Simon’s childhood pet, leading to hilariously tender moments. The trope could’ve been silly, but the writer grounds it in Baz’s guilt and Simon’s grief, making the romance feel earned.

Digging into necromancer Baz AUs, 'Black Cat Crossing' hooked me with its noir vibe. Baz is a detective solving supernatural crimes, and Simon—his sunshiney rival—gets dragged into a case involving undead aristocrats. The necromancy here is more procedural, with Baz analyzing ectoplasm like a morbid chemist, but the heart of the story is their reluctant partnership. Simon’s impulsiveness clashes with Baz’s precision, and their chemistry crackles during late-night stakeouts. It’s less about raising corpses and more about Baz learning to let someone see his darkness—literally.

Cursed, mated, and in for the fight of their lives…
Warlock Nate Hawthorne just wants a cup of coffee. Is that too much to ask? Apparently. Because instead of precious caffeine, all he gets is cursed by a pack of werewolves who want to use him for his magic. Now the only way to fix the damage is a mate bond to a grumpy and oh-so-sexy alpha in the rival pack, who happens to hate him. This is so not how he wanted to start his day.
Ian Armitage never intended to take Nate as his mate. The Hawthorne family can’t be trusted. Ian knows that better than anyone. The fact that he’s lusted after the way-too-gorgeous man for years? Totally irrelevant. Ian’s just doing what is necessary to protect his pack. This whole mating arrangement has nothing to do with love and never will. That’s his story and he’s sticking to it.
Nate and Ian will have to work together if they have any hope of staving off the pack’s enemies and averting disaster. That’s assuming they can stop arguing (and keep their hands off each other) long enough to save the day…
The Alpha’s Warlock is an explicit M/M paranormal romance featuring a snarky warlock, a brooding alpha werewolf, knotting, enchanted socks (long story), and a guaranteed happily ever after. This series does not contain mpreg.
Conrad is pregnant, heartbroken, and on the run. Weird since he is male. His mate, the man he trusted but still broke his heart, is the Alpha of the strongest pack in North Carolina who's marrying Jenna–the Beta's daughter. There's nothing more heartbreaking than seeing your mate marry someone and Conrad can't take it anymore so he runs away without saying goodbye.
Ryker is young, ruthless, and the next Alpha in line. The night when he found out that he has a male mate he instantly thought that his father wouldn't approve and would strip him of the Alpha title, so he comes up with the idea of marrying the beta's daughter and keeping Conrad as his secret. Not telling his mate about his plans was his biggest mistake because the day after the wedding, his mate is gone and nowhere to be found. Five years later and Ryker does not expect to find his mate holding a four-year-old boy that is in spitting image of him.

Zenith.
The man who believes she betrayed him.
The man who never attended her funeral.
The man who now drags her back to the Pack to answer for her crimes.
To him, she is nothing more than the mate who cheated, lied, and abandoned him.
To her, every lie she told was meant to protect him.
Forced to live beneath the same roof as Zenith and his politically chosen wife, Sabrina must survive a world determined to humiliate her while keeping one life-changing secret hidden at all costs.
Because if the truth comes out...
It won't just destroy everything Zenith believes about the past.
It could awaken a legacy the werewolf world has spent centuries hunting.
In a world where love became betrayal, trust became a weapon, and destiny refuses to stay buried...
some mates never truly let go.

Simon and Baz in 'Carry On' have a relationship that’s a rollercoaster of tension, rivalry, and eventual love. They start off as roommates who can’t stand each other—Simon, the Chosen One, and Baz, the brooding vampire. Their animosity is thick, fueled by misunderstandings and jealousy. But beneath all that, there’s an undeniable pull. When they’re forced to work together to stop the Insidious Humdrum, their walls start to crumble.
One night, during a heated argument, Baz confesses his feelings, and Simon, though shocked, realizes he feels the same. Their relationship shifts from enemies to lovers, but it’s not smooth sailing. They’re both dealing with their own insecurities—Simon’s fear of being unworthy and Baz’s struggle with his vampiric nature. Yet, they find solace in each other. Their love is messy, passionate, and real, showing that even the most unlikely pairs can find something beautiful in the chaos.
The 'Carry On' novel dives deeper into the Simon Snow universe by exploring the untold stories and emotional layers of characters we thought we knew. It’s not just about magic and battles; it’s about identity, love, and the messy parts of growing up. Simon’s struggle with his chosen one status feels more personal here, and his relationship with Baz is raw and real, not just a subplot. The book also expands the magical system, introducing new spells and lore that make the world feel richer.
What I love most is how it humanizes the villains. We see their motivations, their pain, and how they’re not just evil for the sake of it. The friendships are also more nuanced—Penny isn’t just the sidekick; she’s a force of her own. The novel doesn’t just expand the universe; it makes it feel lived-in, like we’re peeking into a world that’s been there all along, waiting to be discovered.
Uchiha-centric fanfics diving into Sharingan eye trauma are some of the most emotionally gripping stories out there. 'The Unforgivable' is a standout, but there are others like 'Crimson Eyes, Blackened Soul' that delve even deeper into the psychological toll. The way it portrays Sasuke's descent into madness after Itachi's massacre is haunting. The fic doesn’t just focus on the power of the Sharingan but also the pain behind each unlocked tomoe. The author weaves in flashbacks of Fugaku’s harsh training, making the trauma feel visceral.
Another gem is 'Scarlet Reflections,' which explores Madara’s early years. It’s less about battles and more about the loneliness of seeing the world through cursed eyes. The fic’s portrayal of Izuna’s death and how it fractures Madara’s perception of reality is masterful. Then there’s 'Eternal,' a rare Itachi-centric piece that frames his illness as a metaphor for the Sharingan’s corruption. The way his vision blurs as his morals deteriorate is poetic. These fics don’t just rehash canon; they amplify the horror of the Uchiha curse.
