Fics with prominent female characters.
I've noticed that fandom spaces tend to ignore female characters entirely. This can make it really hard to find good female characters!
Sooo i've made this collection, to help you find something new to read. Check the bookmarks, they have handwritten notes+ tags for length and content!

SUBJECT: Regarding Senate Guard Objectives For Today
This is a polite reminder to all guardsmen that patrol schedules for the Senate vote ratifying dictatorships are posted in the breakroom. I am also issuing a warning to linear time that days should follow sequentially and are not intended to repeat. Please cease repeating. I am getting a headache.
Additionally, I'd like to remind all guardsmen that it is illegal to harbor invisible women in the Senate. If you see a ghost claiming to be Leia Organa, please remove her from the premises. She will be making a scene.
Thank you for your cooperation in preserving the peace of the Republic, and all hail the Empire.

Summary
Zelda blinks. “Sorry?”He doesn’t look away. Funny Link. He doesn’t give up on putting his thoughts into words because he’s bad at public speaking but good at disaster, good at taking things apart, terrible at gluing them back together. Funny Link. He doesn’t breathe. When was the last time he breathed? Should she kiss him?
“It’s not okay, princess,” he says, and he sounds so goddamn sad, she has to stop laughing in her head for five whole minutes. “None of this is okay. Please don’t pretend it is. Please let me help you.”
The first rule of time travel: don't.

Reading this fic feels like eating the shattered pieces of a fired piece of ceramic. One that's been glazed Candy Apple Red (really bright red). It's like if Detective Pony dropped all the bullshit, self-aggrandizing references to Greek literature and went all in on that absurd blend of mind-blending reality warping, wonderfully impossible language, and feels.
And then it was also about Princess Zelda. And it was the best fic ever.Like. You know it's good when there's a goddamn ROSENCRANTZ AND GUILDENSTERN REFERENCE.

very interesting. I'll have to come back to this later-- i don't think I really got what the final shot was meant to convey. two hours of calc will do that to you i suppose. either way, the writing was clear and concise, with obvious deeper shit going on, and I liked the way Joan was written.

How can she know she tried her hardest to fight if she doesn’t come out with scars? How will she prove herself, then?
(Or: Melanie King, and how she knows her own name.)

Summary
All Clark Kent wants is to get the bottom of the recent municipal dumping scandal, find out why Batman has taken to lurking around the Metropolis sewers, and help everyone he possibly can.
All Lois Lane wants is to track down $65 million worth of missing art, determine why the theft has put the Gotham mob in such a tizzy, and figure out what her weirdo ex-boyfriend is up to.
No one knows what Bruce Wayne wants, which is its own issue.

This one's got some great banter, plus some god-tier characterization. it's so shenanigans-core. A light read w/ good edge that I think pretty much anyone would enjoy. Plus Lois lane owns big style
