Top Five Short S8 Fics

[lusciousxander.livejournal.com]

1- The scariest thing in Orvieto by joe_sweden: Slightly before S8. Rona and Andrew talk. This one is very funny, you guys will enjoy it.



2- Performance Review by stormwreath: Prompted by the cover to BtVS 8.22, in which Kennedy goes to Japan to evaluate Satsu's performance as the newly-appointed squad leader. What if Satsu lets slip that Willow wanted to know what Buffy's like in bed? Oooops.

3- Heartbent by angearia: Post-Wolves at the Gate. Shows Buffy and Xander's close relationship in S8 as Buffy tries to comfort a grieving Xander.

4- After the wolves have gone by joe_sweden: Xander and Dracula have a drink in pub once they're back from Tokyo. Very sweet and a good Xander voice.

5- Lights Out by tangent: I can see it set in #16, young slayers awwing the experience of meeting Buffy and Willow in person. Adorable middle of night chit-chats.

She used to write a S8 spin off with other writers. Sadly, they lost interest before S8 started. Her fics are really good and she does funny like no one's business.
