Fanfic February WINNERS

Here are the winners of each category, as voted for by users in r/PiltoversFinest. Runner(s) Up and Honorable Mentions are also posted. If there are multiple fics listed as winner/runner up/Honorable Mention, it's because there were ties in those ranks. The only category with no true winner was Best Smut (No Plot). All nominees for that category were listed, instead.

Congrats, everyone! I plan to try and reach out to each of these authors on AO3 to let them know they've won, and I will eventually make a collection including each of these fics for ease of access.

Thank you all for participating! Without further ado, here are the winners of Fanfic February 2025 on r/PiltoversFinest!

Thanks again, everybody! Please let me know if I made a mistake with any of the links, fic titles or author names here. I easily could have. Hope this was a fun community event, I do plan on trying to make things even better for next year if we as a community decide we'd like to do this again.

Happy reading, and keep your eyes peeled for some exciting new updates to the sub!
