Five Classic Ideas and Thoughts

[lusciousxander.livejournal.com]

1) Xander the Vampire Slayer by sentine: What if Xander was the slayer, Buffy his normal friend, Jonathan his wizzard friend, and Jenny his watcher? Roles reversed according to gender. Makes you think about the changes in the series!

2) Audio drama postcast of The Gap courtesy of Nekidspike fanfic: This was the first time I ever hear an audio drama postcast and it was awesome! I listened to it while reading The Gap by snowpuppies

3) The Beatles by stormwreath: "If Spike was Yoko at the end of S4, that makes the core Scoobies The Beatles. Who's Ringo?" asks gabrielleabelle.

4) "Buffy Is the Hero, Damnit" ficathon masterlist by ruuger: I have so much affection for this ficathon. It's my all time favorite. And those fics are just wonderful!

5) Fic!Spike vs. Canon!Spike by botias: As someone who became a BtVS fan through fanfic and before watching the show, I ADORE these types of posts. There were so many things I used to believe were canon, like Spike calling Xander "whelp" but posts like this one -and watching the show- opened my eyes to the truth. :) Perhaps Spike is the character who suffers the most from being fanonized.

Nifty list. I don't agree with everything on the Fic!Spike vs. Canon!Spike one, but it's hilarious! That ficathon is new to me! Woo hoo!

I don't agree with a couple of things in it, too, but the point the poster is trying to prove is clear and right. If I was as witty and funny, I'd make one about Xander. :)

You haven't seen that ficathon before? You're so lucky! The fics are so wonderful and Buffy-centric!
