I can't remember if this has be recommended before, but given the punchline to the latest chapter I couldn't resist.
Once More with Feeling, an EVA replay fic.
I'll wait a day or two before posting the above mentioned punchline to the ROFLMAO thread.

Someone needs to make that punchline a photoshopped reality, STAT.
Also, the next chapter is already out.

I'm fifthing "Once More With Feeling", though I'm not yet done reading the extant material. Quote: I've never seen so many instances of mangling the characters names ever.. >_<
And not just names. It almost seems like one in ten words is misspelled, sometimes grotesquely so. The author really needs a dictionary, and a constant reminder to use it, as he seems to think (for example) "inherent" is what you do after you find your name in a will. Just to name the first example that comes to mind.

Not so much a dictionary problem I don't think, so much as a 'run it through spellcheck once and call it good' mentality. I'm betting he does know the right words, but that after typoing, he relies on a spellchecker to fix his mistakes but doesn't look all that closely after using it. What he really needs is someone to beta for him.

No, he's not running it through a spellchecker. There are a couple of things I spotted that just aren't anything like a word in English.

The thing that throws me the most is the extra/missing quotes from speech.
Being a bad speller myself I don't notice most of the misspellings.
But that said, it is so very addictive. And I was planning on playing CoV tonight (cry).-Terry

Yeah, that's the other really big thing -- he's never heard of apostrophes. At all. But yeah, it's addictive, and yeah, now that I finished it last night, I want that poster from the end of, um, "Red Song" (?) -- the current next-to-last chapter. And I really liked the most recent chapter, particularly the very last sentence.

FF.net only has like, 3 good Code Geass fics, and two of them have the same basic plot idea. So here's the third one, as a rec.
For the Want of a Nail by Overhaul.
Sometimes the smallest change can have the largest consequences. A simple slip of the hand sends events spinning out of control, and Zero learns that redemption may not be as unattainable as it seems.

I'm not sure I could pick one. Anyway, here's some more Code Geass I've found that don't seem to suck.
Code Geass: Lelouch of Brittania by Cal reflector
History often hinges on a moment. What if young Lelouch avoided the fate of exile and remained with the royal family? All roles become reversed. The tale of Lelouch's quest for power and vengeance as the Black Prince of the Empire.
Code Geass: The Black Prince by R334
Code Geass AU: would have Lelouch become a different person had Cornelia taken him in and spared him exile? One thing is certain: his desire to find justice has certainly not abated... An experimental fic I came up with late at night.
Lord of Submission by RogueRoguePhoenix.
He was once like us, powerless and hateful towards the society he lived in. Then, he received power. Now he arms himself and prepares for war. Brace yourself, a revolution is beginning.
Friends Indeed by Second Harrier
The whole point of a secret romance, after all, is that no one knows it's going on. (Lemon)

Harry Potter AU. Characters all seem to actually be generally more or less IC. Harry becomes independent, but pretty realistically and doesn't do the 'I hate you all thing'. Best of all, there's actually a sense of mystery about everything that's going on.
