Emperor Doofenshmirtz

  • Recommended by Lancelot Varianter
  • Emperor Doofenshmirtz has a way with words that is just marvelous. The grammar is almost always perfect and his fanfics are really entertaining. These fics have vanished from the internet.
    • Seconded by Monoxide. Some of them may not be as close to canon as some people like, but by gosh, some of his stuff can be a rush. Of particular note is his "Smile Away" series. You will be astounded and creeped out at the same time.
    • Thirded by Sparrow. In particular, "Tempus Fugit" is really excellent. Especially the way he handles the ending - Phineas's eventual breakdown is both believable and heartbreaking.

Maya Serena

  • Recommended by Emperor Doofenshmirtz
  • Maya Serena writes the greatest (and possibly darkest) Doofenshmirtz-related fanfics on the archive, and has recently branched out into writing everyone's favorite nunchuk-wielding nerd, Albert.
    • Seconded by PoptartTan2. My GOSH, can she write. She has mastered virtually everything, from humor to dark tones to fluffy tones. You gotta love her.
    • Thirded by DoktorNauk

Lancelot Varianter

  • Recommended by Emperor Doofenshmirtz
  • Lancelot is an excellent writer with a fairly broad range of genres - parody, straight comedy, romance, and darker material that really deserves more recognition.

Freedom Fighter (Non-Fanfiction.net website here.)

  • Recommended by Arctimon
  • Great writing, great sense of humor, and a couple of the stories give the spotlight to characters that have a criminally low amount of fics about them: the Fireside Girls. And they're done very well.
    • NOTE: "My Salty Sweetwater" has a crack pairing, so do be wary of that.

LionshadeSC

  • Recommended by CosmicPickle
  • This author has a really great writing style and keeps everyone in character while adding her own humor. She not only writes Phineas and Ferb fanfics, but also Megamind and Harry Potter, among others.

Sols06

  • Recommended by Lady of the Shield, Sols mainly writes Pn F when they're teenagers. Her stories are wacky and original, and she specializes in suspense. She writes no romance- though Isabella and other minor characters make appearances- and mainly focuses on the bond between Phineas and Ferb. Her verse now has a tropes page here.

    General Fics 
Stories focused on the family and the friendly relationships of the cast. Plot-focused stories or light day-in-the-life stories. Pretty much anything that isn't focused on romance.

Evil Phineas by The Cartoon Fanatic 01

  • Recommended by CMR Rosa, Bezerker 21
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: When Phineas is hit by Doofenshmirtz's reconstructed Turn-Everything-Evil-Inator, he becomes a villain out to conquer the world. Now, Ferb, Candace, Perry, Isabella, and the entire gang must find a way to save Phineas before it's too late. RESTARTED AFTER A HIATUS!
  • Comments: This is truly an amazing Phineas and Ferb story, one of the best ones I ever read, everyone is in character.
    • Seconded by Bezerker 21, this fic truly was one of the greatest examples of Phineas and Ferb fanfiction, and after previously being deleted it is back up on the site! Go give it a read!
    • Seconded by Nebodija. This was one of the first fanfics I've ever read and it set the bar really high. My, the memories... Great to see it back - no thing should ever be lost to time, let alone a thrilling story such as this.

The Great Danville Cold Wars by The Illustrious Crackpot

  • Recommended by Froggo Fan 64, Arctimon
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: When Candace suffers from a really bad cold, Phineas and Ferb embark on inventing a cure for it. Meanwhile, Perry finds that Dr. Doofenshmirtz is making a machine to cure the illness that he thinks has struck Vanessa. Hilarity Ensues in both sub-plots.
  • Comments: This troper is quite amazed at how well the writer was able to take a Phineas and Ferb story concept and give it the kind of narration one would expect to see in a older-demographic novel, and yet at the same time still feel like an actual episode of the show.
    • Seconded by Arctimon. I could imagine the episode forming in my head when reading the story. Probably one of the best (if not the best) P&F fanfictions out there.

The Adventures of Irving and Friends By Spongey4441 (script-fic)

  • Recommended by Poptart Tan 2
  • Status: Dormant
  • Synopsis: The story follows Irving in his day-to-day escapades with his brother and friends (the rest of P&F & co.).
  • Comments: You've probably heard of this one from around this very site. Regardless of what you think of Irving, you must admit two things:
    • This guy's good with characterizations, for ALL characters.
    • He can sure as heck make a joke. The main feel of the series is pretty well maintained through it all. It's never too serious, it's just a lot of fun. Plus, save for some minor proofing errors, it's a pretty easy read.

The End of the Beginning by Shwoo

  • Recommended by patrckred
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Doofenshmirtz attempts to adopt his younger self. Perry thinks this is a bad idea. No shipping.
  • Comments: I really liked this. Doofenshmirtz was appropriately idiotic, Perry seemed like himself, Gimmelschtump was just as horrible as ever. It was over all a bit sad, a bit funny, and a bit heartwarming. Recommended.

Plot Twisted by Child At Heart Forever

  • Recommended by Ajustice
  • Status: Complete on internet archive wayback machine
  • Synopsis: When Dr. D's family comes to visit Phineas and Ferb's, Vanessa and Candace team up to bust Phineas and Ferb's gift for Vanessa and Dr. D up to no good, as usual. but the worst part is that Perry must stop him...with his cover at stake!
  • Comments: It's a great story that takes all of the main parts of a regular episode puts them all together.
    • This is a miracle. I read part of this story long ago, wanted to read it, but never found it again. Thank you. -Miscellaneous Soup

Mingled Sense and Nonsense by Commander

  • Recommended by Midoriri
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: When your humanity is taken from you... sometimes you have to take some strange steps to regain it.
  • Comments: A Perry-centric story that has a very interesting take on his origin, why a platypus is so humanlike, and how he met Dr. D. It really picks up after the first chapter, this reader was very impressed.
  • Tags: AU

Apology by Snowykittens2

  • Recommended by Candycane 14
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: After Candace gets "busted," Phineas starts to feel bad for his sister, so he wants to help her, even if she is partly mad at him.
  • Comments: A Fix Fic for those who didn't like the ending of "Candace gets busted". Everyone's in character and the story is well written. There's drama and hurt/comfort in it. A good family story between Candace and her brothers(especially Phineas).

Lessons Learned by winter s. jameson

  • Recommended by Tropers/Ajustice
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: After a chat with the boys, Linda decides to talk to Candace and find out what really happened at the party - sorry, intimate get-together - the night before.
  • Comments Another good Fix Fic for "Candace gets busted" with Linda and Candace bonding.

Kulpo by Commander

  • Recommended by Midoriri
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Vanessa's fights with her dad would probably last a lot longer if the guilt and remorse didn't go both ways. One-shot.
  • Comments: This is amazing. Commander catches the father-daughter dynamic of these two quite well, and makes the relationship they have pretty tearjerking. She also perfectly captures what goes on in any teen's mind when they return to a parent after an awful fight (not to mention the forgiveness/unconditional love on the parent's end).
  • Tags: Family, drama, hurt/comfort at the end. A word of warning: there is brief talk of miscarriage near the end.

A Brand New Reality by OneDarkAndStormyNight

  • Recommended by: The Otaku Ninja
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: How did Parallel Phineas and Ferb decide to break the rules and transform into the anti-conformists who wore what they wanted and built extraordinary gadgets? How did First-dimension Phineas' dynamic personality affect Parallel Phineas? MISSING SCENE FIC.
  • Comments: I can't recommend this fic enough, it's a great look into what motivated the alternate Phineas and Ferb to rescue their sister from Alternate!Doofenshmirtz, while giving some background information of Alt!Doofenshmirtz's evil reign... though it can get a tad dark at times...

"The Seer"

  • Recommended by: Tanglemorph
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: After playing a video-game one winter day, sixteen-year-old Phineas Flynn finds a mysterious glowing stone in the snow that transports the five friends to a magical land - the same one from the game. Phineas, Ferb, Isabella, Buford and Baljeet are given instructions on how to save this land from destruction - and the dangers are all too real.
  • Comments: An epic tale that spans four books and has some real drama to it. While the story can be found on DeviantArt, it should be noted that it cannot be read in Internet Explorer (for some reason or another.) The Author - Kicster Ash - does a lot of Phineas and Ferb stuff, and was even asked to design the teenage versions of the characters (as seen in Act Your Age).

Phineas and Ferb: The End of Summer by PS2wizard

  • Recommended by: Redtutel
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: With summer ending, Phineas and Ferb are on a quest to prevent losing their friends, while Perry has to protect them and stop Dr. Doofenshmirtz and his new L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N. Old characters return, takes place after their journey into the 2nd dimension.
  • Comments: This story is great. I can really see this as a grand finale to the show. It's full of action, humor, romance and continuity nods. It even has a few songs the author wrote, making it seem more like an actual Phineas and Ferb episode or movie. It does have a few typoes, but they are very few and far between.
    • While the story is good enough, it's *far* from great. It's choppy and while it could do well in a cartoon format, its does not hold up well in a written story format. There also seems to have been a mix up around pages 10 and 11, repeating the same chapter. Then you get to 12, where it's suddenly jumped to a COMPLETELY different scene for no reason. The story has a lot of potential, but the whole thing just seems very half baked.

Singing isn't evil! by Hatsu-chama

  • Recommended by: CosmicPickle
  • Status: Complete, Vanished from the Internet. Please post a backup link if found
  • Synopsis: Doof tries to improve Norm but accidentally creates a young girl robot with long teal pigtails (you know the one), who seems to be quite taken with a similarly-colored platypus.

The Sanest Ones Here by sunsetofdoom

  • Recommended by: cattywonkers
  • Status: Dormant
  • Synopsis: The sanest ones are the inmates! A charming alternate universe story about our beloved Phineas and Ferb cast...in a mental house. Jeremy is a doctor there and experiences their quirks and problems and creates a little family.
  • Comments: This is one of the best AU stories I have ever read. Each character retains their personality, even through a slew of personality and mental disorders alike. The writing is well-constructed; the dialogue is charming, and the absolute attention to detail and everyday life is fantastic. Well worth a read.

In the Dark by TheCuriousWriter

  • Recommended by: bookwormgal
  • Status: Dormant
  • Synopsis: Perry is protective over his naive owners, especially since he almost lost them in the alternate dimension fiasco. He never expected them to get put in harm's way ever again until someone kidnaps Phineas, leaving no name but lots of cruel intentions.
  • Comments: Lots of twists and turns, false leads, and exciting cliffhangers are scattered through this story. Everyone from the show is practically dragged into events at some point. Multiple searches for the missing boy are running simultaneously: the police and his parents, his friends, and by a very worried semi-aquatic egg-laying mammal of action. But even with all the worrying, dread, and multiple reveals that things are not as simple as hoped, there is still some familiar humor that crops up to keep things from becoming too dark. And the fact that Phineas has been kidnapped allows Ferb to be in the spotlight for a change.

Drabble Days by crazymusicalgenius96

  • Recommended by: partner555
  • Status: Dormant
  • Synopsis: 100-word drabbles, with single words of inspiration. Fluff and pairings galore. Rated T for safety.
  • Comment: A collection of short stories done by the author. Some of them are requested by readers. There are many short pieces that one can enjoy. Some of the drabbles are focused on romance, others on friendship, others that are just for fun and so on.

Capturing the Past by winter s. jameson

  • Recommended by: Tyrannotitan
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: When Phineas and Candace's birth father returns, Candace sends him away. But with Phineas he won't take no for an answer. Once he's taken both Phineas and Ferb, can Candace and the other kids find them in time?
  • Comment: This story gripped this troper right from the first chapter, as things already were very intense and intriguing. It is a good theory on the Flynns' biological father, and William himself was very sinister. There is also more drama from the the boys' disappearance too. Page here.

Freaky Phineas Friday by iheartphinabella05

  • Recommended by kablammin45
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: When Phineas and Candace wake up on a Friday morning in each other's bodies, they must find a way to switch back before sun set because by sun set, the change becomes permanent, and they become each other forever. Can they switch back before it's too late?

  • Synopsis: Isabella Garcia-Shapiro never expected her life to change in an instant after her boyfriend Phineas has been kidnapped. Now, with the help of some old friends will Isabella find her lost boyfriend? Phinbella, Ferbnessa, pairings to come
  • While there is a fair bit of shipping in story, it's mostly light and the story focuses more on Isabella, Ferb and their friends' desperation to find Phineas. It's well written and worth the read.

Phineas and Ferb: Take Two by AnimationNut

  • Recommended by Kazrak
  • Status: Ongoing. Originally posted to FFnet, since then taken down from there and moved to AO3.
  • Synopsis: Blooper reels from a world where Phineas and Ferb isn't animated, but is instead acted by real actors, and run by a long-suffering director who wonders how he ended up in this mess.
  • Comment: Over 30 episodes done so far, each one hilarious. Lampshade Hanging of many of the tropes of the series, especially Phineas's obliviousness and Doof and Candace's positions as the Chewtoy.

For Her Who is More by Kurai Arcoiris

  • Recommended by Doktor Nauk
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Sometimes, we only see one side of a person, but no one is so simple as to be seen fully from one side. To get a full view, we need to see them in different settings and situations. Of course, some people are more complex than others, and so we need to see more. With Candace, well...let's say we'll definitely need more.
  • Comment: 50 drabbles all about Candace. Some are heartwarming, some are funny, and some are tearjerkers and all of them are in character.
    • Seconded by ShinyAeon. These little slices-of-life really ring true for Candace. Well-done and memorable.

Phineas and Ferb The Best Fic Ever by Clayton Overstreet

  • Recommended by ShinyAeon
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: With nothing to do all day but watch TV, the boys build a machine that lets them travel into the television programs. With disastrous results.
  • Comment: Another Original Flavor gem. Though spelling errors abound, it was enjoyable enough that I overlooked that. Some of Ferb's lines were especially priceless.

Third Person Narrative by Engineer Zero

  • Recommended by ShinyAeon
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: "Phineas and Ferb seek to write a story . . . about Phineas and Ferb writing a story. Either this is a literary experiment, or I have run out of story ideas."
  • Comment: It's a literary experiment, and a dang funny one. A delightful bit of postmodern fanfiction, full of wit, charm, and just a dash of heart. Fully worthy of Phineas and Ferb.

Who's Crazy Now? by Engineer Zero

  • Recommended by ShinyAeon
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: After a bust too far, Candace is taken by her mom to see a psychiatrist. After Doof comes down with sniffles, Vanessa fills in for him for the day.

  • Comment: It has interesting new takes on a lot of the episodes featured, including the 2nd dimension movie. There is a lot of great character development in this story, namely Candace and Perry after they learn each other secrets. There is now series of stories done by the author, including two crossovers with Gravity Falls and one with The Little Mermaid and a few one-shots. All are well-written and enjoyable to read. It's great series of Candace fans.

M.W.C.A. (Musical Without a Cool Acronym) by Acid Flashbacks

  • Recomemended by BackSet1
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: A parody musical consisting of two acts. In the first act, Candace tries to bust her brothers for making a laser tag arena with real lasers while Dr. Doofenshmirtz tries to use his Pool-Inator to put pools in everyone's back yards to get them to buy Chlorine from him. Shenanigans ensue. In the second act, Phineas and Ferb are asked to do the lighting for a dance that Candace and Vanessa just happen to be attending. In an attempt to show her mom that her dad is evil, Vanessa accidentally steals the boys' invention. Shenanigans ensue.
  • Comment: A really enjoyable musical clearly made by people who love Phineas and Ferb. The musical parodies are brilliant and every joke and scene feels like it came out of an actual episode of the show.

    Shipping Fics 
Stories focused on the romantic relationships between the cast.

A Love Unexpected by The Cartoon Fanatic 01

  • Recommended by CMR Rosa
  • Vanished from the internet. Please post a link if found.
  • Pairing: Phineas/Adyson
  • Synopsis: Fifteen years in the future, Phineas Flynn returns to Danville for a high school reunion. There, he finds a romance that he thought would never be possible in his lifetime. But what will that bring from the forces that intend to destroy this spark of love, including a certain woman from his romantic past?

Bottled Feelings by Invisibool

  • Recommended by Froggo Fan 64
  • Status: Complete
  • Pairing: Ferb/Gretchen
  • Synopsis: Ferb develops romantic feelings for Fireside Girl Gretchen (the one with the glasses) and asks Isabella for advice on how to tell it to her. He gets a nice surprise when he gets around to it.
  • Comments: The author of this story says that he felt that, since Phineas had Isabella, Ferb needed a girlfriend too, and Gretchen was the most logical choice. And I'd have to say he made a good choice; this story of his turned me into a Ferb/Gretchen shipper!

Hold My Tongue by JoeMerl

  • Recommended by the grene kni3t
  • Status: Complete
  • Pairing(s): Ferb/Vanessa, slight Phineas/Isabella
  • Synopsis: Ferb wonders whether to speak to Phineas about his crush on Vanessa.
  • Comments: This story does a good, plausible job of first-person narration from Ferb's perspective and provides a neat analysis of the Phineas-and-Ferb dynamic.

Alphabet Soup By 'Lil Miss Kandy Kane

  • Recommended by Lancelot Varianter, Arctimon, Kazrak
  • Status: Complete
  • Pairing(s): Phineas/Isabella, with mentions of Ferb/Vanessa.
  • Synopsis: A collection of twenty-six one-shots that follow the Alphabet, the story chronicles the lives of twenty-three-year-old Phineas and Isabella as a couple.
  • Comments: A well-written collection with proper grammar, descriptions, and great characterizations, Alphabet Soup does a great job of exploring the relationship of Phineas and Isabella. It covers everything from fights and (Slight) angst to fluffy and romantic instances. That, and You'll learn what words like Jocose and Quixotic mean.
    • Alphabet Soup is great, but this troper would gladly recommend any of her four stories. The writing is beautiful, and her characterization is awesome. Hard to believe (as of this writing) she's only been writing for about a month. Her only problem seems to be a lack of confidence, which is a shame—because her stuff is really good.

Finding Dad by Team-Phineas

  • Recommended by Decaf Grub 47393
  • Status: Complete
  • Pairing: Phineas/Isabella, with implied Ferb/OC
  • Synopsis: Phineas and Isabella go on a journey to find their missing parents, and as they travel together form a closer bond with each other.
  • Comments: The best story that deals with Phineas' Disappeared Dad in my opinion, it has it's huge share of heartwarming moments. This story is one of very few fics to do first-person POV correctly. Now has a trope page.

Always by Snark-N-Moon

  • Recommended by Robbie Rotten
  • Status: Complete
  • Pairing: Stacy/Candace
  • Synopsis: Stacy has always been annoyed with Candace's obsession with Jeremy and busting, and she's always wished Candace would pay more attention to her. But maybe's there's a deeper reason than we thought...
  • Comments: Yes, this is slash. But it's some of the most well-written slash ever. Everyone is in character mostly, and can totally see this in canon, if it had to deal with this subject. And most of all, it's adorable! Even Non Yuri Fans can get a kick out of it.

Gonna Be All Right by Anna Kaiya Freeman

  • Recommended by Candycane 14
  • Status: Complete
  • Pairing(s): Ferb/Phineas, Jeremy/Candace
  • Synopsis: The story focus on the boys' relationship and how everyone reacts to it.
  • Comments: Also a slash fic and also one of the most well-written slash stories in the Pn F fandom. It's almost close to the show. Everyone's in character and their reactions were very realistic and believable. Phineas and Ferb are actually portrayed as bisexual (something VERY rare in slash fandoms), and there's barely even any smut in this fic. The most recommended chapters to read are 'Gonna be all right', 'Shaking hands', 'Fate isn't good enough', and 'Time flies'.
    • Seconded by Blazichu. Even if you're wary of the slash, give it a shot— your faith will be rewarded. Mine certainly was.
  • Tags: Incest

The Story Beyond the Portal by Stinkfly3 and Myron Greenleaf

  • Recommended by Stinkfly3
  • Status: Complete
  • Pairing(s): Alt. Ferb/Alt. Isabella, Alt. Phineas/Alt. Vanessa
  • Synopsis: What happened to the world counterparts after the movie?
  • Comments: Ever wonder what happened to The Resistance after Across the 2nd Dimension? Then read this fanfic. It includes romance, betrayal (especially when Alt. Phineas quits The Resistance and becomes evil after his parents are accidentally killed by a Resistance weapon and Alt. Candace doesn't seem to care about it), and a whole lot of action.

More Trouble Than it's Worth by Grave Bells

  • Recommended by Broken China, Numbuh9494
  • Status: Complete
  • Pairing(s): Buford/Baljeet, some Phineas/Isabella
  • Synopsis: Baljeet agrees to go to Junior Prom with Wendy, and Buford is inexplicably furious.
  • Comments: The Bujeet ship is really lacking in good chapter fics, but this fanfic basically makes up for it. The characters and relationships are believable, the plot hasn't been dragged out over an obnoxious amount of chapters, and it's incredibly cute while also being quite serious. The end is a little wild, but it sort of adds to the experience of the story. It's definitely worth the read.
  • Has its own page here.

A Day in the Life by Lowrider

  • Recommended by Kazrak
  • Status: Complete
  • Pairings: Phineas/Isabella
  • Synopsis: Phineas, Isabella, and Bajleet swap ages with Candace, Jeremy, and Stacy. Phineas and Isabella start realizing how much they mean to each other, as Candace recruits Jeremy and Stacy into a Big Idea of her own.
  • Comments: In addition to some excellent handling of Phineas and Isabella suddenly getting hit with teenage hormones, the Candace side of the story shows how similar she and Phineas can really be as she decides to help Jenny's food drive in a way that even Phineas and Ferb would be proud to call their own.

Summer of Love by Lowrider

  • Recommended by Tyrannotitan, Kazrak
  • Status: Complete
  • Pairings: Phineas/Isabella, Ferb/Gretchen, Baljeet/Ginger, Candace/Jeremy, Buford/Milly, Django/Adyson
  • Synopsis: A series of stories when Phineas, Ferb and their friends are 15-16 years old featuring the above romantic pairings and the situations they get into (if you are interested in how most of the pairings started, check out more of Lowrider's stories).
  • Comments: This was a very fun and interesting story to read. The situations the characters get into are both good and bad, there are funny moments and the pairings work well (to the point that this troper got interested in reading the stories about other pairings he wasn't originally interested in). This troper particularly liked Adyson and Django's story arc, as their relationship has a lot going on, and the conclusion to their storyline is quite saddening. There is some mildish sexual content in it, so be warned if you don't like that stuff. Follows in the same timeline as A Day in the Life, above.

Good Old-Fashioned Fun by karly05

  • Recommended by Kazrak
  • Status: Complete
  • Pairings: Ferb/Vanessa, oblivious!Phineas/Isabella, Candace/Jeremy, hints of Django/Gretchen
  • Synopsis: Ferb is reminded of a Pleasure Garden his grandparents took him to in England, and convinces Phineas to build one as today's big idea. Vanessa stops by to visit due to a mysterious invitation she receives.
  • Comments: karly05 has written many stories covering Ferb and Vanessa's relationship, but this is the linchpin of the series. In addition to setting up Perry as a short turquoise matchmaker, it does an excellent job characterizing both the early beginnings of their relationship and the issues with Phineas and Isabella's at this stage. Other stories in the series are more strongly rated, but this one could easily be an episode of the series.

Christmas Bliss by Piano Man 5

  • Recommended by DTM
  • Pairing: Phineas/Isabella

  • Synopsis: When Phineas accidentally discovers a not-so-private secret about Isabella, what will he plan to do with and for her before Christmas? A jam-packed Phinbella fluff and romance story filled with an Astronomy project, a dance, school, Christmas, and a million other things left to be discovered.
  • Comments: A very sweet story exploring Phineas's very well-written perspective after discovering Isabella's crush on him. Add in a lot of fluff and the advent of Christmas and you get a wonderful piece of work.

Everyone is in character and the Canon is adhered to. There are some things that are kind of slow (Phineas & Ferb's project, a detective business, never really goes anywhere). Could be considering Pandering to the Base, but still entertaining.

Hogwarts? How Serendipitous! by Nassy Nyrolian

  • Recommended by Shiny Aeon
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Phineas isn't going to let a little thing like being a Muggle get in the way of going to England with Ferb and having the best Year One at Hogwarts ever! Takes place during first HP book.
  • Comment: Phineas and Ferb bring their trademark ingenuity to Hogwarts, and it's delightful. The story does strike a few wrong notes, but the ones it gets right, it gets EXTREMELY rite. Fun all around.

There's 104 Days of a Holy Grail War by Saikazo the Writer

  • Recommended by p0nypanda
  • Status: Dormant
  • Crossover with: Fate Series
  • Synopsis: One fateful day, a Servant answered the call of a bumbling Master, one determined to take over the entire Tri-State area. Now, he will work hard against all odds to make his Master's dream a reality. No matter what Fate throws at them, they will succeed... Someday.
  • Comment: A Phineas and Ferb and Fate crossover that, despite being relatively new, somehow works. Due to being crossed with Phineas and Ferb, it seems the Holy Grail War will be significantly less high stakes than usual.

This Could Possibly Be the best Life Ever by (Malvolia)
