Some favorite POV fics

Some favorite year 2014 stories that - in one way or another - are about point of view. (Or at least I consider them to be.)
Any bad English in summaries is mine and shouldn't be blamed on fic authors.

Illusions (Angel, Spike, OC, PG-13) by [livejournal.com profile] ash_carpenter. Brilliant outsider POV story, showing that in Sunnydale getting it almost right is never enough. (And you read it right - ash wrote PG-13 gen story, her hand slipped.)

Wish You Were Here (Instead of Me) by ChristinaK (Ensemble, PG-13). Another terrific outsider POV. It's year 2014 and Sunnydale Class of '99 is having a reunion.

Special Delivery by [livejournal.com profile] dragonyphoenix (Willy the bartender, Buffy, Giles, PG-13). It's always fascinating to see Buffy through some minor character's eyes, and dragonyphoenix got Willy's voice absolutely perfect.

Vision of Us by [livejournal.com profile] pickamix (Willow/Angel/Spike, R). Beauty is such a relative term, especially when it is end of the world...

The Watcher Who Still Watches by [livejournal.com profile] katleept (Ensemble, PG-13). Giles is dead. How does it feel for the people who knew him?

I've read several of these and they are marvelous! Fine list!
