one of the first things I do when i want to start reading fics in a new fandom i search "[character i like] fic recs" and get awesome recommendations so i thought i would make a list of some of my fav fics that either have scott featured or are scott-centric.
ill highlight any fics that are explicitly ship-y in purple but just to clear one of these recommendations may not be necessarily 'ship-y' but still have ships in them, just on the basis that the fic is not about the ship itself, so watch out. but also, you can check the tags.
also my highly recommends in green :D
Dog's Life by Fountain Penguin
(author also on tumblr under the same name)
This one is super interesting... I'd describe it as like a sci-fi imagining of the myct universe as a whole but with animal politics. The author describes it as "a dramedy about hybrids in a digital world (both in their Life game and their server hub." i really like this. This fic is the main fic in a series that has a bunch oneshots in the same universe, so if you liked it, check those out too.

Crowns of Asphodel by Astral_Song
For most of his life, Scott Solidarity-Major's aspirations were to grow old with his husband on their farm. But, when war came to their doorstep, when Jimmy joined the Desert army, he still kept up hope. Until his world came crashing down.
Someone had killed his husband. Somewhere among the ranks of Dogwarts, Jimmy's murderer walked free.
And even if it cost Scott his life, they were going to pay.
Or: Scott joins Dogwarts to avenge his husband.

one hell of a feeling by waveridden
cabin core! (also with maybe a bit of scottho? i cant remember)
“Okay,” Etho says. “So Scott’s the boogeyman forever.”
Bdubs scowls. “You’re being dramatic. We don’t know if it’s forever.”
Just that it’s incurable. Scott had exploded Jimmy and Joel and nothing had changed. His teeth are still a little too sharp in his mouth. He can still hear every heartbeat in this room.
cabin crew zombie apocalypse. theyre all stuck in a cabin together during a snowstorm.
Rotten Work by WolffyLuna

Scott leapt back out of bed and slammed the windows open. “PEARL, STOP STEALING MY DOG!”
