A floating castle. Immersion very few people had ever experienced. As an avid gamer, who was I to resist? As I, Riwet, ventured into Aincrad, little did I know that it would be the start of an event that will change me, for better and for worse. OC Self-Insert. Some OOC. KiritoxAsuna, SI-OCxSilica. T for violence, profanity, and occasional author immaturity.

Using all his power, Kirito was barely able to save the lives of his guildmates, but his guilt of putting them in danger drove him to leave them anyways.

Sword Art Online is over. The floating steel castle of Aincrad has disappeared, and with it, all the blood, sweat, tears, and joy that Karma has known for the last two years.

Based on the game Re:Hollow Fragment. After reaching the 76th floor of Aincrad, the Assault Team is in disarray.

Hi there, I'm Kirito or Kazuto in real life. What I am is pretty simple: I am a gamer.

The night sky is vast and full of stars, unreachable by any human's hands. Logic dictates humans would never be able to grasp the stars on their own. However, sometimes, a shooting star makes the impossible, possible. A crack fic with hints of sexual content. Made for Kirisuna Week.

It’s the end of a long tiring day, and together, Kirito and Asuna have retired to their home. Rather than let his girlfriend cook dinner for them as usual, the young man has decided to take it upon himself to take care of culinary duties that evening. Kirito is determined to make Asuna satisfied with the meal he has prepared. Will he succeed?

She is 100% certain Kazuto Kirigaya and her would always be on complete opposite sides of the spectrum. That was a fact, an unspoken but established rule between every single student on campus ever since their first year of college. It was just as irrefutable as the sky was blue and the grass was green. So why...? [Full Summary inside] Enemies-to-lovers!AU

This is the story of Kazuto Kirigaya and Asuna Yuuki's life after Project Alicization. From the simple things, to grand adventures. There's many worlds out there to explore, and our heroes intend to make the most of it. (Set after an Alicization AU, no Unital Ring, some OCs no lemon.)

Sword Art Online was created as a verdant wonderland, a triumph of art, science, and technology all coming together to create a picturesque world of rolling plains and forests filled with sweet fruits, a world where the sword ruled and warriors reigned. This lofty dream turned into a nightmare when the one million users came face to face with the fact that they are trapped inside.

It's KiriSuna Week! The SAO fan fiction discord server has issued a prompt challenge. There are seven days of prompts following the main pairing of SAO: Kirito & Asuna. Come read for a fluff fest (with some light angst mixed in depending on how spicy I'm feeling).
