Top 5 2022 Fanfic and Meta

Giles Haikus by littleotter73. One for each season!

And When The Sky Was Opened by eleusis-walks. Wonderfully in-depth exploration of Cordelia and her arc.



Tailor-made by sparrow2000. Lindsey runs across Giles in Sunnydale and is glad it wasn't Ripper.

Ask the Things You Shouldn't Miss by punch_kicker15. “Ooh, nifty! A spell to make creatures understand your speech!” Willow bounced on her heels. “We could try it on Miss Kitty Fantastico.” Fun view into Miss Kitty's perspective.

No Rest For The Wicked by IncognitoDuck11. "Just a look at the themes and parallels that link the four of them, and how Buffy plays the role of friend, lover, victim, executioner, and forgiver for Angel, Spike, and Faith." Meta can come in various forms and I think this vid is a good example of how they can be designed to make arguments.

Oh wow, thank you so much for the rec. I had a lot of fun writing that one, so I'm chuffed to bits to get a rec for it.

I loved those haikus by littleotter73 when they came out and look forward to reading them again and reading the other three entries for the first time. I do love Buffyversetop5 - I always find some great new stuff.
