Gonna drop a few egg fic recs, CW for internalized transphobia on most of them, other cws will be listed with the specific fic
Iβm Currently reading To Own The Libs, by OfficiallyZoe: A conservative college student decides to go undercover as a trans woman to prove that self-id is a bad idea. The story is ongoing, updating every Friday, and contains content warnings at the start of every chapter. The prologue hit very close to home with me and my struggles accepting myself as a gay trans woman
Getting Into Character by Lotus17: A group of friends play D&D on stream, their newest campaign requires them to all play as female characters, and one by one they start to realize some stuff about themselves. CW for transphobic bullying. Still updating, at a kind of erratic pace. I really like the relationship dynamics in this one
Canβt Make an Omelette: a Chick Before the Egg Story by SapphicSounds is a comedy about two roommates who decide to magically transform into girls to βprankβ their other roommates. contains smut, but itβs not the focus. I was laughing all throughout this fic, the main characters are too oblivious
Curse You, Magical Girls! A Flower Blooms in the Heart of a Villain!? by rooibos_chai: Follows the villain of a magical girl anime and her most trusted minion. I canβt really say much without spoiling the entire plot, but itβs <9000 words, so if you enjoy the Evil Queen x Trusted Servant dynamic and would like a somewhat comedic take on it, itβs highly recommended. This was the first egg fic I read, and the thing that got me into the genre
Plot Twist: Itβs Gay by Elamimax: A college student is really uncomfortable when his lesbian roommate brings home girls all the time and suspects that he might be harboring some homophobia he wasnβt aware of. Turns out she was just jealous. I really like how the main characterβs jealousy continues even after she figures herself out, and that itβs a vehicle for driving the remainder of the story
Trolls and Tribulations by rooibos_chai: An edgy wannabe-hacker hacks into a trans girlβs computer, and figures that the best prank would be to support her through her transition. CW for transphobic parents. I once described this fic as βMiraculous Ladybug for trans peopleβ and I stand by that
Let The Devil Take The Rest by DerbyGhost:A guy searches for his former roommate who went missing, after finding her, she invites him to join her demonic commune. Content warnings at the start of each chapter, kinda horny.
Performative Masculinity by OfficiallyZoe: A closeted trans girl troublemaker runs into another troublemaker from her school on her way home from the gender clinic, who later comes out to her as a stealth trans guy, they form a truce/friendship and help each other stay out of the way of the superintendentβs son, a bully who faces no consequences. CW homophobic bullying, and bullying in general. I really like the relationships in this story, both the familial ones and the main romantic relationship are really good
