Tadokoro is a great character with a really appealing energy to him, and this is, therefore, a rec list of some great fics where he's the star of the show.
Title:Tadokoro/Arakita Fight Creator(s):doxian Rating: T Major Tags: violence Why is this work awesome?: Have you ever wondered what Arakita thought about Fukutomi and Tadokoro's altercation during the previous interhigh? This fic answers that question, while giving screentime to two characters whose interaction in canon is limited to "being in the same frame and maybe saying a line or two in group conversation." The energy of the action is really great and there are some marvelously descriptive lines, most notably about Arakita and his "beast sense." Not to mention, the characterization of both Arakita and Tadokoro is spot on.
Title:Tadokoro & Onoda, Onoda works at Best Buy Creator(s):blueminuet Rating: G Major Tags: None Why is this work awesome?: Mels' writing is characterized by a really snappy, tongue-in-cheek tone, which serves this fic well. Bumbling Tadokoro, seeking to catch up with the technological times, vastly underestimates the young Best Buy sales employee who offers to help him. Highly recommended for the humor as well as the characterization, because this fic is a perfect illustration of how Onoda works in taking other characters by surprise.
Title:Tadokoro/Toudou Before the Bake-Off Creator(s):luckycricket33 Rating: G Major Tags: None, additional tag for food Why is this work awesome?: One of my favorite things is seeing loud, blustery Tadokoro flustered, and that is precisely what this fic delivers. It's a prequel to my tadotou bakeoff fic, focusing on how Tadokoro "prepares" to defeat Toudou in their amateur little competition. By which I mean: how Tadokoro badgers Makishima for Toudou's weaknesses, only for Makishima to tease him in return about the crush he clearly has. A very cute story featuring a very pitiless Makishima.
