CLAMP Fic Recs

The first #ficrecs since I started using the tag!

As usual, sorted by rating (or closest equivalent for the stuff from FFN and LJ) in alphabetical order. Unless otherwise noted, all fics are complete. For series, they're listed in the highest rated part of the fic. Always check the author's page for other works!

Because this list got long, i added a "★" before my top 10 fics on this list.

CCS = Cardcaptor Sakura CLAMP = multiple CLAMP properties TB = Tokyo Babylon TRC = Tsubasa Resevoir Chronicles X = X/1999 xHL = xxxHoLic
