Three that I really really wish people would read:
Every Light Casts A Shadow Final Fantasy IV, starring Kain but with appearances (either real or memory/ghostly) by the entire rest of the cast. I've only got one chapter posted so far, but oh my God, I have seriously worked my ass off with this story and I want people to look at it, and appreciate it, and see how much I've put into it! (Spoilers for the game entire.)
Rain Final Fantasy VI Leo and Celes. The thing I love the most about it is the perspective; I tried to write it as visual-audio only. I was very careful not to write from inside their heads. Also, I really like how much is said and how much remains unsaid but understood between them.
The Good Fight Final Fantasy IV, Kain-centric. This piece is very much about Kain's transition and how the way that the way his honour drives him can work with what's done to him after Mist. I like the struggle, and I like the eventual breaking down. (It's one of my favourite things about Kain: he is a constant internal struggle.)
And one for the road, because this one did get some comments but I sort of want people to look at it anyway: On Easy Terms, Final Fantasy XII, Drace/Gabranth. Chess and politicking and layers of meaning. FF12 fic is SO HARD TO WRITE. Oh God.
