Alright, for the past month that I've been on fanfiction.net, I have been reading lots of Drakken and/or Shego fanfics. So, i was hoping everyone could help out by giving me links to more (doesn't need to be at fanfcition.net). They can be yours or someone elses that you strongly reccomend, or.. just, something you happened to come across. They don't need to be Drakken/Shego shipping fanfics (though they could be). They just need to have Drakken and/or Shego as the main focus of the story. It can be any length (from oe chapter, to a billion)... it could even be a letter or poem. It can be any genre.. i tend to have certain genres I like more, but I'm willing to expand my horizons, expecially for my two favorite characters Any rating (like: T, M, K+, etc.).. just put the rating (and possible reasons why for the rating) next to the link.. for certain people who may not be allowed or wanting to read a fanfic of a certain rating. This can also be useful for many other people browsing along for D/S fanfics. I'll also try to contribute some worthy fics POST AWAY!

Finding fics focusing on Drakken and Shego isn't hard, but finding quality ones is… difficult, at least by my standards. But I might see what I can find for you.
Hmm… I might try writing one sometime…

Alright, I'll start off a list of the ones I have read and reccomend: ~ www.fanfiction.net/s/2538494/1/ Titled: In A Rut, by our one and only, livvylu aka skinny-mini. Rated K+. About: Shego may have finally crossed the line with her blatant honesty... Has she pushed Drakken into a permanent funk? Or can she still reverse the situation with a little... help? (General/Humor) ~ www.fanfiction.net/s/2519238/1/ Titled: On Thin Ice, by Blackfire_18. Rated T. About: After the ice fortress incident The Truth Hurts Shego saves Drakken's life from drowning. They are back in their haunted lair and trying to regroup as well as fight an oncoming cold. Civil conversation through rather rash subjects ensue. (Angst/Drama) ~ www.fanfiction.net/s/2354449/1/ Titled: Hanging in the Moonlight, by xXxKimPossiblexXx aka BendersCreator aka Caroline Rated T. About: A lot of feelings flow through your body and mind when you are sent to jail, and your love is lost. What is Drakken feeling and who has he lost? Why is he in jail... and what is he going to do when he can't take it anymore Chapter 4 is up! (Drama/Angst) ~ www.fanfiction.net/s/2454187/1/ Titled: Seeking Shelter from the Rain, by BalckFire_18. Rated T. About: Another attempt at a robbery is dashed as Kim Possible saves the day once again...and what's worse, it has begun to rain.

(General/Humor) ~ www.fanfiction.net/s/2190430/1/ Titled: Mayhem Under the Mistletoe, by xXxKimPossiblexXx aka BendersCreaot aka Caroline. Rated K+. About: What happens when Drakken has to take care of his neice for Christmas and Shego has to take care of her newphew! Will they bring Drakken and Shego together, or tear their relationship away for good? DS ~ www.fanfiction.net/s/2195912/1/ Titled: Dream Lover, by Skymouth. Rated T, but in my opinion, should maybe be Rated M (not reccomended for kids 13 and younger, or maybe even higher. Sexual Themes). About: Set after “Emotion Sickness”, Shego keeps having disturbing reoccurring dreams that affect her work and the relationship with her boss, Dr Drakken. D&S shipping. (Angst/Romace) *Also, reccomended, xXxKimPossiblexXx's Obsession Stories --> www.fanfiction.net/s/1772852/1/ and www.fanfiction.net/s/1874718/1/*I also am creating stories myself... I already have one up, titled, Lovin' Evil, though, it's no where near as good as everyone elses. Visit me--> www.fanfiction.net/~lillyonHope that works as a good start. I'll be reading and adding more stories, and I have others faved, but these ones so far i have noted to be highly well-written and reccomended

Finding quality fanfiction on FF.net can be the most arduous task ever. Finding good fanfics with Shego and Drakken...well...that's just near impossible.
I joined FF.net with the intent of authoring some quality D/S stories (not necessarily shippy stories, just something great involving the duo). Originally, I started a tale about the planning stages of StD and how Drakken came to have Shego as his sidekick. Then my ambitions started to wane. Yes, I am the laziest person ever.
I'll finish it. Eventually. Maybe.

Indeed! Bring quality to the chaos! Anyway, here's a recent one that I found that's fairly good that you hadn't listed, though there's no shipping, it keeps Dr. D and Shego in character fairly well, and the plot is rather intriguing. www.fanfiction.net/s/2466293/1/Not Quite Heroes by MatthewC Fiction Rated: T - English - Action/Adventure/General A dangerous piece of hightech equipment has been stolen from a secret lab, and a familiar duo sets out to retrieve it. The twist? The lab belongs to a blueskinned mad scientist, which means the duo are Drakken and Shego. High Adventure, bad guy style!

It is a bit complicated…
About four months ago, I went through and read every Kim Possible fanfic at FF.net that seemed even slightly interesting… and let me tell you, I think I'll be scarred for life. So many fics, so many horrific travesties defiling the show.

I enjoyed reading "Not Quite Heroes" It shows us the interactions between Shego and Drakken with this peek into their "normal" lives, when they aren't duking it out with teen superhero Kim Possible. Just like The Novomagus said, the author keeps Drakken and Shego in character, which enough is cause for praise and does justice to the characters. Hopefully, this piece doesn't fall victim to the "lost ambition and now must strive to conclude the story in a forced manner" completion.

OMGosh.. I know.. truely scars you.. it's like *while you read*, "No!! No!! That is not what Drakken would say you dummy!! UGH!" See, I've been trying to kind of.. "Get Into The Minds of The Characters", so-to speak. I've been trying to learn Drakken and Shego's inner most thoughts... so when I write or draw them... i'm not trying to make them out for something they aren't

It's all about point of view. It's not about what you think the character's should do, it's about what the character's actually would do in the situation, whether or not you like it, or it helps your plot along.
Remember, any change to the characters or their relationships must be done gradually, and have very good reasons for it from the character in question's point of view. Just because you want something to happen, doesn't mean that it should happen immeadeatly. Don't get impatient, and don't give up.

I absolutely agree! I hate to sound persnickety, but it really does get to me when people discard the characters' true personalities and replace them with what they want. I mean, I know it's their fic, but I like to see the characters STAY in character... and as long as the change is gradual, it can be nice to do some developing, but when things start out with ideas totally different from what I'm used to from the series, I get a little put off.
And thanks for the mention, Sarah! ;D And also for the list... I hate skimming through fanfiction looking for the fics I want... especially since a lot of them are, as The Novomagus pointed out, EXTREMELY scarring.

I've written two Drakken/Shegos so far. Some people here seemed to want to see Drakken and Shego married and having a family. Okay, fine, I thought. They've tried to conquer the world and failed as often as Wile E. Coyote has failed to catch and eat the road runner. I just thought, maybe their crimes caught up with them. Maybe they've been sentenced for crime after crime. Maybe escaping prison and staying escaped is getting harder. Marriage was easy, an excuse not to testify against each other. A pregnancy? I'm assuming Drakken and Shego like each other like that, or could by the time of my series, 2 1/2 years after "So the Drama." But Shego, at least, seems to realize that with 167 years of sentences waiting if they get caught again, even without any more crimes-- maybe it's time to change the act. Do I do it gradually enough? Your call. www.carlmillerpoems.com/603drakkenstrial.htmlAnd this sequel was a foregone imperative, the moment the "Greensleeves" characters arrived in the first story. www.carlmillerpoems.com/606savethewhales.htmlI'm planning to do at least two more featuring Drakken and Shego, one involving "Motor Ed's Rocking Scrapyard," a reality TV show on the Evil Network, which I'm foreseeing involves a washing machine launched into orbit attracting the attention of Global Justice, and Kim being honorary judge, but that's a spring story I think and I still haven't done Christmas vacation. And second, the birth of Shego's daughter. Eventually I'll get there, I hope.

I just totally love this one! www.fanfiction.net/s/2210556/1/Heroic Failure by The Last Son of 84 Drakken and Shego are captured by Global Justice and blackmailed into a top-secret mission. However, nothing could prepare Drakken and Shego for the hardships they will face on this mission, those imposed by others and by themselves. Rated: K+ - Humor/Drama

He seems to come out with a new one every week. I don't think he has a FF.net account, but you can find links to his KP works on the first page of his fanfic thread, or here, at his website: www.carlmillerpoems.com/cloudmonet.html

Eee! I'm liking that story... I was quite surprised when a certain someone turned out to be so nasty... (I don't want to ruin any surprises for the people who haven't read it yet, so I hope you know who I mean...)
Anywho! I also just wanted to say that I've added part two to my fic, if anyone's interested! ;D
