top 5 AtS fics that weren't recced as Fred, Giles or Wesley.
seems to have lots of Illyria, but then again, I love Illyria...



Amoral Boundaries by wisdomeagle
Dawn/Illyria
It's an amazing piece of writing, character voices are spot on, characterisation fantastic, I found myself amazed with every line... Marvelous, fantastic, gorgeous imagery.

Comparative Data by flurblewig
Angel/Illyria.
I don't usually like Angel/Fred or Angel/Illyria, but this one is too awesome not to notice and adore. Hot and creepy and deliciously odd...

The Anachronism Girls by zgirl714
Fred/Lilah.
This is one femmeslash pairing that I adore, and this fic shows exactly why. Lovely and hot and woah.

Grandmother's House by doyle_sb4
Buffy/Illyria
Not a pairing that I expected to enjoy reading about. But this is so beautifully written, so wonderfully constructed, woven with mythos and darkness and beauty... There are fics you simply can't get enough of.

The Five Games You Play In Heaven by wisdomeagle
multiple pairings.
This is why I love wisdomeagle, right there, in a nutshell. Lovely and funny and sharp and witty and sweet and utterly wonderful. Read it. Like, now.

Illyria's such a great character because her very lack of history creates so many possibilities. Ooh, Fred/Lilah, that sounds intriguing! I hope to dig into some of these soon.

Thanks very much for these and really proof in the pudding that a good writer can make any pairing believable. Dawn/Illyria sounds like such a feat to pull off. I must bookmark that one!
Fred/Lilah. This is one femmeslash pairing that I adore,
Actually, karabair just recently wrote Lilah/Fred and I thought it was sweet how she got them together and good character voices. Have you read it? (http://www.livejournal.com/users/karabair/368517.html)

I've done a couple of Dawn/Illyria drabbles and am delighted to find someone else who has done something with those characters. I was enchanted with the story.

Thank you so much for rec.
