Ah the abandoned WIP. Some of them are already epics, some only 5 or 6 chapters but chances are most of them had readers still waiting for an ending (or sometimes a middle). Finished or not though, many of them are worth reading anyway for the great stories or character moments they did have.

1.Season Noir by Anna S. - NC-17 – An ambitious attempt at a Buffy S8 that had one of the most fascinating final chapters I’ve ever read. A pity it’ll never get to its intended conclusion but I’m not too unhappy it ended on the note that it did.

Warren Mears is a very underused character in fanfiction, I think. He had a lot of potential and he was such a dark character without completely losing that human edge.

Here's my list of Top 5 Warren Mears Fictions

1. Fucking in the Dark by Moonloon

Rated NC-17 this strange little vignette showcases just how dark Warren/Andrew could be behind the scenes. It's the epitomy of how dark Warren could be and how manipulative and just how much potential for Scary Supervillain he really had.

Four More and a bonus just for sheer nerve )

This was a category which certainly ran the gamut in their approach to the pair. I tried to include a variety of them here because this was a really popular vid topic and the best ones always managed to keep things fresh.

You think that I’m beneath you but you like the things that I do

1. You’re So Real by catatonic1242 - All – The lyrics for this song went particularly well with this duo and the uptempo music helped to glide over some less than pretty aspects of their relationship as well.

Since I adore Willow/Angel fics, I thought it only fitting to share five that I find outstanding (though narrowing this down to five was tough) By the way, these are Willow/Angel, there are no Willow/Angelus fics here...I may do a list of those later:

Five Terrific Willow/Angel Fics )


I could have added so many more stories to this list, but the limit is five, so...my apologies to everyone I left off! I love your stories, I really do!

I'm an icon-whore. I have folders upon folders of icons, of all 'ships and characters. I dig 'em. So it was really hard to narrow down my list of favorite icon-makers to just 5, but, well, I tried.

Icon Makers a-hoy. )

Well, since I just did a list of Willow/Angel fics, I thought I would also showcase some tasty Spillow. Once again, the fact that I can only pick five is daunting, so I apologize in advance to the fine writers I'm not listing here. (Oh, and with ONE exception, I am not listing any WIP's):

Top Five Post-Chosen Fics:

1- A Stone's Throw from Yesterday by [personal profile] eurydice72: Fall, 2006. The Sunnydale Hellmouth has been destroyed for over three years, and the Scooby gang has scattered to the four corners of the globe, continuing their fight against the dark evils of the world. In the Egyptian desert, a single man hears a tortured plea for help. It’s just a shame he doesn’t recognize his own voice…- Complete.

Top 5 Spander Manips:

First Place I don't know who really made this but I found it long time ago at [profile] tolerik's site before she changed the look. This is easily my favorite manip. This is rated adult, but don't worry, there's no, uh, man-parts to be seen. *blush*

Second Place by [personal profile] saifai , who made it for Randy Sex Kitten's fan fiction website.

Third Place by [personal profile] spacenewt Hot, hot, hot! But NOT worksafe.

Fourth Place by [personal profile] saifai, it's her LJ header, and I'm completely blown by it.

Fifth Place by Unknown seems it's made for Robin the crossover junkie. It's so sweet, makes you go awww! I wish it wasn't a banner, but I really love this manip.

All the links actually go to Charm School, my Dru archive, rather than lj since some of these aren't up on lj that I'm aware of.

Flatshare by Alixtii - Drusilla/Ethan - PG - a pairing that makes so much sense it's wonderfully frightening.

I figured I had one more list in me, so I thought I would share a list of five wonderful Willow/Angelus fics. Once again, this list is very arbitrary because there is so much great fic and there are only so many slots. No WIP's at all here. These are all complete.

The following stories (in no particular order) are all epic in length and predicated on the notion that Angelus and Spike have always had a bond much stronger than just ‘friends’ or even occasional bedmates and once the misunderstandings/subterfuge/self-denial are dealt with, they seem to have a difficult time keeping up the 'mutual hatred & loathing' charade.

When my recs lists for the community's throw-back project started to take shape and I saw how much I actually love it when authors slash Wesley with, just about, any/every one in the BtVS/AtS verse, I was shocked. Anyway, The following are must-read m/m slash fics involving Wesley Wyndham-Pryce.

Feel me before I slip away

!. Help Me by Wolfling - Like Illyria, Doyle’s tenure on the show was rather short and thus there’s a limit to how many different takes can really be presented on him. What I liked about this one was the structure of the vid. Given the ending to Doyle’s arc one could question how much help Cordy and Angel were to him, yet I think the vid makes the case that he was better off having a purpose and having the end he did.

Really, you won't see many het recs from me because, for whatever reason, they, with the exception of a very few 'ships, aren't able to hold my interest for very long. However, the following fics are truly, in my estimation, outstanding enough to have stayed with me for (in most cases) years. By the way, did I mention that most of these are loooooooooong as all get-out?

This way to the Man/Woman love-fest )
