Five Random Fandom Things I Enjoyed in 2015

[shapinglight]

I forgot to bookmark things I wanted to rec this time around, which was stupid of me. So I'm just going from memory here and have probably forgotten loads of great things. But anyway, here are five random fandom things I enjoyed in 2015.

First some fic.

Ipseity by spuffy_luvr. Buffy/Spike, Teen and up. A wonderful long, plotty fic, featuring an amnesiac post-Chosen Buffy and her friends', and Dawn's, attempts to help and restore her. Lots of angst ensues.



Next, a vid:

Invincible, by rbfvid, two and a half minutes of Spike's POV on Buffy. Needless to say, she's awesome and he gets beaten up a lot.

Back to the fic.

I Love You is a Thing You Say to People Who Are Dying by quinara. Spike/Buffy, R. Another long, plotty fic - this time an alternate version of the latter part of BtVS season 7, in which some of the Watchers have survived.

Another vid:

All of the Good by rbfvid, Darla/Angel. Like all rbfvid's vids, the editing and song choice is superb. Icing on the cake with this one is that the voice of the original artist sounds like it could be Darla's own.

Finally, another fic:

The Pieces That Prevailed by beer_good_foamy. Willow, BtVS mid season 7. PG. Season 7 Willow bumps into her teenage self. Or does she? It's all very quantum.

Hopefully, I can remember another five things before the end of this session.

"random" is a valid category! I will have some exploring to do after this!

Great choices. Another one of those things I suck at - making notes to myself that I'll remember when it comes time for Buffyrecs. *sigh*

I'm usually very good at it. Don't know what happened to me last year. :(
