General Fics
"Stories focused on the main characters. Pretty much anything that isn't focused on romance."

Hero with the Cracked Helmet. by OneLastBird

  • Recommended by The Wild West Pyro
  • Status: Last update April 2014.
  • Synopsis: The Universe is ending... again, and Vitruvius has come up with a prophecy to save it... again. Seriously, how many times has this happened already? Anyways, Universe ending, big prophecy, yadda, yadda, this time the survival of everything might just depend on a slightly damaged 1980-Something Space Guy...
  • Comments: A funny story that casts our beloved blue spaceman as the lead, with an interesting plot and humor to boot.

Picking Up the Pieces by Kartoon12

  • Recommended by Lego Lover 58
  • Status: Dormant; last updated May 2017
  • Synopsis: Taking place on the evening of Tako Tuesday, the fanfic revolves Emmet and co. and they rebuild their world after Tako Tuesday.

Where A Bird Once Nested by Tesla2251

  • Recommended by The Wild West Pyro
  • Status: Complete.
  • Synopsis: How does it feel to lose not just your home, but the home of your subjects and you can't let your cheery façade drop for even a moment? Set after the film about one of the places in the Lego Universe that didn't survive unscathed. Not a shipping fic, they are only friends. Hope you like it.
  • Comments: A wonderful story, tearjerkers and heartwarmers throughout, that shows the friendship between Emmet and Princess Unikitty.

  • Recommended by The Wild West Pyro
  • Status: Complete.

  • Recommended by The Wild West Pyro
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: After the events of the Kragle, Emmet thought that things were going to be smooth sailing from now on. But...that hasn't exactly gone to plan. A new prophecy, new bad guys, new good guys. Put these all together, and you've got yourself a sequel!

A Piece of Rebellion by Mattecat

  • Recommended by Foomin Blue

He's Your What!? by Sunny Lighter

  • Recommended by The Copy Universe
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Emmet and Lucy go to apologize to Queen Watevra and Batman for wrecking their wedding. Minor hijinks ensue when Watevra (purposely) lets something slip that changes the way everyone involved sees her and Emmet.
  • Pairings: Emmet/Lucy, Batman/Watevra
  • Tags: Silly, Lighthearted, Family

  • Comments: A darker look at Emmet's experience, with PTSD and heartwarming moments throughout.

Brick on Brick by WyldstyleLucyWhatever

  • Recommended by The Wild West Pyro
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: A series of short drabbles with events from Lucy and Emmett's relationship. First one is set about two months after the movie. SPOILERS (maybe)! Please R&R!

Dancing in the Moonlight by LostLyra
