Favorite Fics from 2014

[lusciousxander.livejournal.com]

I haven't really read a lot of BtVS fics this year, but these five stood out for me. :)



1- Red Frame, White Light by sparrow2000: Deliciously creepy and makes you sick with curiosity! Original idea with a shocking twist.

2- Muddle Through by callievalpoli: Giles' POV. Sad, lonely and heartbreaking.

3- To Have and to Hold by quinara: Xander/Anya. Xander did marry Anya and their life is not exactly what he expected. Inspired by recent Nicholas/Emma photos.

4- The Jesse, Willow, and Xander Chronicles of Denial: The Cookies of Death by jesterladyfic: Demons, vampires and devils didn't just appear when Buffy showed up. They were already there in Sunnydale, already creeping into Xander, Jesse and Willow's lives and houses. This piece made me think of the hundreds of times our little heroes were saved from a brutal death without even knowing.


5- I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings by kerkevik_2014: A look into Faith's character post-Chosen.

Wow, I'm blown away by the love Red Frame, White Light is getting. Thank you so much for the wonderful rec, love.

I also loved muddle through, and thanks for the reminder about To Have and to Hold - lovely story I'd completely forgotten about.

Haven't come across the other two, but will definitely put them on my 'to read' list.

Thank you again

It's a great fic and deserves to be recced by everyone. I've read it again and it still made the hairs in the back of my neck stand.

Mmmm, love Red Frame, White Light and To Have and to Hold. I hadn't read kerkevik's story, which seems odd since we're friends. Don't know how I missed it but it's lovely. Thanks for the recs.

Red Frame, White Lights was one of the only BtVS fics I read last year and it really is a good one so now I've read two more on your list. Thanks for the recommendations.

Yeah, I haven't read much fics this year, but I totally enjoyed this one and I'm glad to have read it.

I already know and absolutely love couple of them, and have no doubt I'll enjoy other as well, thanks for the recs!

I'm sure you will, they are wonderful!

Thank you! I've only read the first one. I'll have to go off and read the rest too! (It's too bad that the Christmas holidays are almost over -- where will I find the time now to read all these great stories...)

[lusciousxander.livejournal.com]

You're welcome! The first fic is totally a perfection!
