Finally there's a place for me to ask: Where is the FMA fic? Are there LJ comms? Is there a site? I tried ff.net, but the less is said about that, the better.

[evil_little_dog]

The only really active LJ comm any more is FM_Herald. It's also 'mirrored' on DW, but I'm not sure if as much is posted there as on LJ.

Other semi-active LJ comms:

FMA_Slash and FMA_Ladyfest do stuff annually. FMAbigbang is in it's third or fourth year of participation. I run FMAgiftexchange and just put up the Valentine post.

FMA_Herald on LJ also provides links to all the posts to a variety of comms on any given day.

Hope that helps, Nonny.

Aww, thank you so much! I felt a bit lost as a complete newbie (I watched it in November.)

[evil_little_dog]

OOPS! I meant to say FM_Alchemist is the one that's really active.

Glad to be of help. I've found a few rare gems on FFN, but those were definitely rare, and I've been in this fandom since 2006, so.

[natural_blue_26.livejournal.com]

evil_little_dog isn't the type to toot their own horn, but their fic (or what I've seen of it on LJ) is very, very good. (Also Buffy fic, etc etc)

[(Anonymous)]

Seriously?

[natural_blue_26.livejournal.com]

Yes, seriously - I crossed over into even *finding* FMA from another series of fics they were writing years ago, so they still give me 'new fandom' warm fuzzies. I'm sorry that offends you Anon

[likeadeuce]

What was the other series?

(And why are people so nasty in anon? :-/)

[(Anonymous)]

I don't like their fics at all, so...

[likeadeuce]

Oh, let's get nasty in anon, that's super classy.

[natural_blue_26.livejournal.com]

Well, to each their own Anon - I hope you found something more to your cup of tea then

[lunabee34]

I bet there's also stuff on A03.

[taisha]

Are the Scimitar Smile or Touka Koukan archives still up?

[(Anonymous)]

Never used Scimitar Smile but Touka Koukan died in 2010/2011.

[evil_little_dog]

Scimitar is, but I don't know about the other at all.

[likeadeuce]

Oh my God, I tried looking at that archive setup and it broke my brain.

Probably just as well I missed the heyday of this fandom :)

[herongale]

Yeah lol, it used to have a much more intuitive interface, but... well, it hosts a lot of good authors? You can at least go to the author names list and use that to search ff.net/the AO3 for those authors and then look at their FMA fics...

[likeadeuce]

I'll probably give it a shot when I'm more awake! I just looked at all the different categories and my jaw kind of dropped.

[herongale]

Good luck! There's a lot of stuff to go through, that's for sure. But I hope you find a lot of fic you like! XDDD

[(Anonymous)]

There was a yahoo group that used to be fairly active, can't remember it's name though and it probably isn't anymore.

A lot of old awesome stories are in locked journals or lost to the ages now. Some can still be found by word of mouth and fanfic hoarders...but it's kind of sad at times.

[herongale]

Looks like Scimitar Smile is still up... that's an FMA specific fanfic archiving site.

[astridv]

I have a list of fic recs here, nonnie: http://astridv.dreamwidth.org/202984.html

A lot of gen and Roy/Riza IIRC, and a few other ships. Brotherhood/manga only.
