Neji Fanfic Recs

Browsing through fanfiction.net, I came across some nice Neji pieces.

Yup, I like (loooooooooove) Neji. A lot. Heh.

Anyway, here they are:

Twenty Matters Of Pride To Hyuuga Neji
Hyuugas are known for their pride, but Neji isn't quite like the rest in what he's proud of.
It's well written, it's believable, it's as if the author knows Neji like the back of his/her hand. Although some facts may be off though to new info from the manga (this was written a year or so ago), it still can pass off as authentic. All characters are IC, and the depiction of Guy as the father figure for his team, it is reminiscent of all those episodes with the Guy-Lee theme, only now it applies to Neji as well.

Singing Sirens
Oneshot, NejiTen] [AU] Everything about this says that it’s not going to work. But Tenten has always specialised in disasters, and nothing in their world is a coincidence.
You can see that NejiTen is one of my favourite pairings in Narutoverse. This is a sweet story - funny, heartwarming with a tinge of romance.

Rock Idols
A storm is brewing and the natives are restless. Lee is mistaken for a God, Tenten can't catch a break and Neji... well it's amazing he doesn't have any gray hairs yet. A comedy with a bit of NejiTen on the side.
Not so much an introspective Neji piece, rather it is one filled with Team Gai loooooove. Funny, cute, cool. Not to be missed.

Music Boy And China Girl
[NejiTen] [AU] It's their little ritual, so they sit under the sun and listen. [Why do you have all this weird music? ...Hn.]
Very very AU. Yet I like. The flow, the characterizations... They're all mighty neat. :)

Coda In D Minor
She doesn't look like her father. /And children can't recognize grief./ /future!fic, sort of Team Gai/
Not really Neji centric (no mention of Neji at all except at the end) yet, the hint of Neji prevails throughout the fic. Neat enough to keep you guessing, sadly poignant and very well written.

The Konoha Love Story
Once upon a time... the village fell in love with a lie.
It's angsty, it's love, it's death. It hurts yet it keeps you reading and wanting for more.

The Gates Of Konoha

The return home from a mission is never redundant for Team Gai.
A friendship fic. Exudes the warmth and cheeriness that is common to team Gai.
