Five classic things that changed my life

Whoo hoo! Thanks so much to [livejournal.com profile] yourlibrarian et all for bringing back one of my favorite communities. Best of all it's classic recs. All of these are pre-2006 since I'm saving those to share later.

The 5 that sucked me in!

One day way back when I made the mistake of clicking on a link to Buffy fan fiction. I'd been a fan for several years by that point, but I'd never really gotten into fic. I was hooked... These are some of the stories that sucked me into the wacky world of fan fiction. If I hadn't discovered them I would have gotten so much more accomplished over the course of the last few of years!

ETA: I officially suck at HTML! Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] yourlibrarian for the clue to making a couple of the links work!

ETA, part two: edited to give a working link for Ten Thousand. Hooray!

Top Five Classic Slash Fics

These are the fics that caught my interest and have held onto it. The ones that I go back and read every so often. Two of them, Sea Change and UST, are the very first pieces of fanfiction I ever read.

Slash List )

ps-Picking just five out of all I've read was very hard. *g*

We're Open for Posting!

Welcome to the Classic Recs weekend -- we’re now open for posting! Just a few reminders and introductions.

Please remember to look at our user info for information about what should and shouldn’t be included in posts. Anything fan-created before 2006 is fair game, and should be made in 5 item lists.

To kick things off here’s my list for Top 5 Vids – Series Tributes )

Best Characterization Fics:

Fics with Outstanding Characterization: (IMHO)

1- Cuckoo in the Nest by [personal profile] liz_marcs

Wow, this fic takes us inside the head of Xander's father: Tony Harris. We get to see Xander's life and the events of canon through the eyes of his father. New idea of a fic, amazing characterization, amazing plotting. I especially liked how she made Tony look like a person and not like how many portray him as Mr. Evil Rapist.

5 vids, Keeping the Dream Alive

Good vids, like good drabbles, pack a world of meaning and interpretation into a short time (or 100 words). They're a successful marriage of words, music, and clips capturing the essence of a moment, a relationship, or emotions - often all three.

Here's my selection of vids that do all that.

1. Keeping the Dream Alive - made for me by [livejournal.com profile] stir_of_echoes and sums up why we're all still here.

2Goodbye my lover by [livejournal.com profile] stir_of_echoes – one that still makes me cry.

3.Desperado - by [livejournal.com profile] spikelover. The stormy relationship of Buffy and Spike.

4.Look at me I’m the Devil in Blue by [livejournal.com profile] spikeylover. The transformation from shy Texan girl to something entirely different.

5.Breaking the Habit - by defeduck Another stormy relationship. This time it's Angel and Spike with tons of footage from Destiny and probably my all-time favourite AtS 5 episode. I saw it for the first time at Halloween Con 2004. Scroll down the page, it's second from the bottom.

My Top 5 Kitten Fics

first off, I've gotta thank [livejournal.com profile] yourlibrarian for opening this up, and for classic fic!

Now, onto the fics themselves.  Often I'm an equal opportunist as far as pairings go.  But sometimes, I need a fic with a kitten in it.  It's required.  So here, these are 5 of my favorite kitten fics.

this way for the kittens )

as a last tag to this, if you have any kitten fics you'd like to suggest to me, i'd adore you for sending the links my way!
