The Finn Fanfic Files

Yeah,yeah, I know. All these essays and links and cute affiliate buttons are nice enough, but what you're really looking for is fanfic. Well, here it is. Enjoy, and don't forget to send feedback to the authors if you read something you like.

If you have a Riley story you'd like to have archived on this site, e-mail me (Mariner) at mcq79@hotmail.com. If you're looking for inspiration, try our challenge section. All pairings, genres and ratings are welcome. All I ask is that you adhere to the following simple guidelines:

Proofread your story for spelling and grammar, or have a beta reader do it. Your adoring public will thank you.
Completed stories only, please. I'm too lazy to keep updating a WIP with new chapters over and over again.
Include a copyright disclaimer
Include a header at the top of the story with the following info:
