buffyversetop5This year's session of Top 5 closes in 25 hours! So if anyone's still got recs to make this year, post soon or save them for next year :)
With our sessions running late in a year, we don't catch everything still to come. But it's still new to Top 5, so here's a shiny new set of works!
1) Footprints by kerk_hiraeth. Being a librarian, Giles knows the value of ephemera.
2) Nice Shoes, Two-Feet by beer-good-foamy. "Remember how, when a Slayer turns 18, she's put through a test? Well, Faith just had a birthday, and it turns out there's another ordeal to go through... One that will have her questioning her entire persona." It can be a good problem to have though.
3) Unicorns Are Totally Real by thenewbuzzwuzz. The Buffybot is on a mission and Harmony could really use a friend, plus they both want to see Paris. I swear these two were made for one another.
4) Buffy icons by alexia_drake. Many may like #4, a nice Buffy/Spike one, but my favorite is 11, I think it has a great look.
5) all the subliminal things no one knows about you by paperclipbitch. Not late 2019 work but a 2020 work: "Leia always refers to it as their origin story, even though she’s actually a technicality in this, a footnote, whatever you want to call it, because one of the things about being a twin is that you get to claim at least half of your twin’s achievements and powers as your own. That’s just the rules. She might not be the goddamn Chosen One or anything, but she’s still a part of all this, and that means Luke doesn’t get to hog this clusterfuck."
Intriguing fusion of Star Wars characters into the Buffyverse.

I'll have to put the Star Wars on my to read list, but will look forward to it. :)
