The 2009 Wish List

[yourlibrarian]

In two weeks buffyversetop5 will be open for all your 2009 recs. Essays, icons, archives, anything fan made that was active or created in 2009 is eligible.

Looking for particular sorts of recs? We’ve got a number of tag and memory categories so don’t forget to browse those. But this is a special post for people to let their fellow community members know what they’re hoping to get for the holidays.

Comment below with a line or two about what recs you’ve been hoping to see. If you see requests here that you could make a post about, start putting a Top 5 list together! The more people post, the more likely everyone will find what they’re looking for. Just remember, it must be fanmade Buffyverse or Firefly material created or continued in 2009.

Let’s not forget that one of the reasons for this community is to thank the creative people who have given us their work this year. Any Scrooge-like comments will be shown the door.

Remember, comments below should be your own wishes ONLY. Respond with Top 5 lists posted to the community once we open. If you have any questions about the Wish List post them here.

For a while (a short while!) I was able to find Firefly/X-men fiction, and loved the rare, rare ones I located. I was hoping people had perhaps stumbled across some more, or knew of ones I'd never read.... I realize this is a tough wish, though!

[angearia.livejournal.com]

Doesn't this have to be Buffyverse though?

[vikingprincess]

I believe the entry says: Just remember, it must be fanmade Buffyverse or Firefly material created or continued in 2009. Don't crossovers count?

[yourlibrarian]

They do indeed :)

[angearia.livejournal.com]

Ah cool. You know, I don't think I've come across any Firefly recs within. Maybe I missed them...

I hope someone recs some this round!

[yourlibrarian]

Try the tags firefly or any of the character names.

[angearia.livejournal.com]

I didn't actively search for them, just in casually watching the posts on my flist, I didn't seem to notice any Firefly.

As a podfic fanatic, I would love to have some recs for Buffyverse stories (especially longer ones). Anything out there? (Xander and/or Faith are favorite characters, but I'm game to try others.)

[yourlibrarian]

I second this request, any characters.

[sevendeadlyfun.livejournal.com]

I'll third this with a follow-up request for community recs for podficcers. I made a few podcasts of my own fic, but I didn't really know where to post them. So any comm recs would be awesome.

[nwhepcat.livejournal.com]

Do you know of the massive archive of podfic at audiofic.jinjurly.com? Jinjur wants to host pretty much every podfic ever made, so it's a great place.

[sevendeadlyfun.livejournal.com]

I've been so busy with moving, I haven't had time to read much fic this year. I'd love to see favorites lists for spike/xander, spike/angel, and gen fic involving any of those characters.

[deird1]

I want to find some more femslash.

My favourites being Buffy/Faith and Willow/Kennedy, but I really love them all...

[lavastar.livejournal.com]

Seconded! :)

[lusciousxander.livejournal.com]

Long Xander fics would be awesome, especially in S8. Gen, het or slash, as long as it's Xander I'll be so satisfied. :)

[ladycallie.livejournal.com]

I would love to have links to good quality meta, any Joss show. Also, Willow/Tara please? Any links to good gifs would be appreciated as well.

[shapinglight]

I don't really have a wishlist as such, but I'm always glad to be pointed towards any quality Spike fics I might have missed.

[caliente-uk.livejournal.com]

I don't really have a wishlist, but I'd like to see good quality (and long) Spike/Buffy fics - especially those with a time travel twist. And the angstier the better. :)

[serriadh.livejournal.com]

I would love some recs of Giles-centric gen or meta.

[lynnalso.livejournal.com]

I never get tired of well written Spike/Buffy or just stories of the whole gang. I am ready for lots of post Chosen.

[emac66.livejournal.com]

Especially like spike/angel longer fics, eve wip's. Have also been into spike/tara of late. anything that may have buffy-bashing (no offense to buffy fans!!) is on a wish list also.

[crevanfox.livejournal.com]

I'm the only person in the world who likes this pairing - but I can't write it, alas, My OTP: Faith/Edward from Twilight.

I can settle for Buffy, or other Slayer/Edward, and still be quite happy.

[sentine.livejournal.com]

I would love some recs for gen stories (for BtVS, Angel, and Firefly). Sometimes I need a break from pairings ;)

[lothy.livejournal.com]

I'd love to see some lists to do with Cordelia. Gen, het, femslash, whatever as long as Cordy's featured.

Also River.

[gigi-tastic.livejournal.com]

I love Andrew and Anya. there both really funny yet at the smae time they can be really meaningful. it would be great to see more of them

[brutti-ma-buoni.livejournal.com]

Faith! Giles! Faith/Giles! I'm obsessed. I want to know others are too...

Gen is welcome, pretty much any ship is interesting. The pairing would be *fabulous*.

[crevanfox.livejournal.com]

Illyria fic, or Winter holiday fic (Christmas, Hanakah, Yule, Solstice, etc.)

[duh-i-read.livejournal.com]

I would adore some fic about Joyce (gen or otherwise), or at least Joyce heavy fic.

[lonelyangel-x.livejournal.com]

I don't know if I'm too late with this, but...

I'd love to see some happy (/hot/sexy/sweet/funny) Buffy/Angel fics - something that's very low on the angst. Also, Buffy/Angel/Spike, Wesley/Lilah and Wesley/Fred would be awesome.
