A plot twist could be a change in power dynamics. Suppose Gilgamesh loses his powers temporarily. Saber and Lancer would then have to protect him while also dealing with the enemies that are now more emboldened because of Gilgamesh's weakened state. This would force them to work together in new and unexpected ways, and also lead to character development as they face challenges they hadn't anticipated.
It could be about an epic battle. Gilgamesh is a very powerful and prideful character. Saber is known for her noble ideals and strong combat skills. Lancer is also a formidable fighter. Maybe the fanfiction is set in a situation where they are forced to fight each other in a multi - sided battle, with each trying to prove their worth and dominance.
Often, they emphasize the contrast between Saber's noble and stoic nature and Lancer's more passionate and head - strong personality. This contrast creates a dynamic tension that can drive the plot.
Another theme is the clash of ideals. Gilgamesh has his own view of kingship which is often at odds with Saber's. This conflict of ideals can lead to some really intense and interesting storylines. For example, in some fanfictions, they have long debates about what it truly means to be a king.
A really interesting one is 'Love Across the Ages'. It delves deep into the pasts of both Gilgamesh and Saber. Their different cultures and experiences from their respective timelines create a complex and beautiful relationship as they learn to love each other despite their differences.
Well, one interesting aspect could be the exploration of their complex relationship in a more creative and unorthodox way. It might show different sides of their personalities that we don't get to see in the original works.
The rich lore of the Fate/stay night universe. Fans are already invested in the world and the backstories of Saber and Gilgamesh. Fanfiction allows them to explore different scenarios that may not have been shown in the original works, like what if they had to team up against a greater enemy? Or what if they fell in love in a different timeline? All these ideas are appealing to fans and contribute to the popularity.
One of the well - liked 'gilgamesh x saber fanfiction' is 'The Golden King and the King of Knights'. It beautifully weaves their personalities together in an alternate universe scenario.
One often - overlooked source is Wattpad. While it's known for a wide variety of stories, there are some hidden gems of Saber x Gilgamesh fanfiction. However, it might take a bit more searching compared to AO3. You can also try joining Fate/stay night fan groups on Facebook or other social media platforms. Sometimes members share their own fanfictions or know where to find good ones in this pairing.
A really unexpected plot twist in this kind of fanfiction might be that the kidnapping was a mistake. The kidnapper was actually after someone else but got the wrong duck. This could lead to all sorts of comical or tense situations as they try to figure out what to do with the wrong captive. Also, the kidnapped character could discover a long - lost secret about their family during their captivity, which changes the whole dynamic of the story.
A possible plot twist could be that Naruto turns out to be a keyblade wielder in disguise. This would completely change the dynamic as everyone in the Naruto world and Kairi would be shocked. It could also mean that Naruto has a whole different origin and mission related to the world of Kingdom Hearts.
