- Bad Guy (Angelus and Spike) - MadLove4ever
This one's just fun. I've seen a few Bad Guy vids this year, and this is my favorite.

Happy Halloween folks. We’re now onto the recs for fandom creativity that has happened since last year’s [livejournal.com profile] buffyversetop5. I’ve noticed a lot of great vids this year, so here’s the first of two 2020 vid posts

Welcome to the Jungle by ethereal. This is a beautifully edited Ensemble vid with an emphasis on Buffy for obvious reasons!

More video beauties this way... )
mirrored_illusions: Sheppard aiming a gun in black and white. (Buffyverse)
[personal profile] mirrored_illusions
There are very few Buffy/Ronon fics out there, but here are five of them :)

... Myself In You by pprfaith.
Buffy as a Runner who hooks up with Ronon every 300 days before Dr. Beckett removes Ronon's tracker, and later on, Buffy's.

... Not Prince Charming by angelus2hot.
Ronon interrupts Buffy mid-slay and she isn't happy about it, until she gets a better look at her 'rescuer'.

... A Nice Place To Visit by craterdweller.
Another fic where Ronon interrupts Buffy's slayage, but this time with more enjoyable results...

... What Could Have Been by angelus2hot.
A wormhole malfunction causes Ronon to end up on Earth where he meets Buffy, only he has to leave before they can really start anything.

... Strange Bedfellows / SB, part 2 / SB, part 3 / Brain vs Brawn by ladycat.
Only the first and fourth parts are on AO3.
Cracky SG1/SGA crossover with snark, UST, and Sheppard fantasizing about shooting wraith with super-soakers.

For the last couple of years I’ve challenged myself to do one classic recs post that doesn’t have a Xander in sight - which as most of you know is kind of traumatic for me. Here is this year’s list.

Untitled holiday ficlet by [livejournal.com profile] brutti_ma_buoni is a Firefly/Georgette Heyer crossover. Two of my favourite Heyer characters, Damerel and Venetia take tea with Mal and Inara aka Mr and Mrs Reynolds. I’d say the ladies have the upper hand in this one.

More goodies this way... )

Five Giles/Spike shortfics, by the request of [livejournal.com profile] spikesjojo.

Four Step Programme by [livejournal.com profile] brutti_ma_buoni, R-rated. Post ‘The Gift’, Spike and Giles have reasons to get closer. More humour than angst or romance.

Here are five Giles/Xander fics, which is my second favourite ship. These range from the ridiculously cute to the ridiculously angsty.

Starting with cute, The Beginning of Knowledge by [livejournal.com profile] mireille719 is some lovely incremental snapshots of Giles and Xander’s relationship in which Xander buys post Valentine’s Day chocolate and Giles folds laundry.

This way for the pretties... )

Some of my favorite ghost stories, mostly not scary and Spike-centric.
Any bad English and awkward phrasing in summaries is mine and shouldn't be blamed on fic authors.

What Happens In Vegas (Buffy/Spike, R) by [livejournal.com profile] rahirah. Buffy, Spike and haunted honeymoon suite. Absolutely perfect horror fluff (and even more perfect Buffy's voice).

A Warm and Fuzzy Tale by [livejournal.com profile] penny_lane_42
http://penny-lane-42.livejournal.com/133641.html
PG. Post-"Angel". Buffy/Spike, Illyria, Dawn. There is a third party in Buffy and Spike's bedroom, and Buffy is not happy about it. Writer uses a funny situation to reflex on serious questions: how our prejudices are born? how we hate? how we love? Delightful yarn - sweet but not saccharine.

[livejournal.com profile] seasonal_spuffy
[livejournal.com profile] gen_storyteller
[livejournal.com profile] fantas_magoria
[livejournal.com profile] still_grrr
[livejournal.com profile] schmoop_bingo

Not the only places I found good stuff, but probably the most prolific?

ETA - Sorry for the bad links. I think I got them all fixed now.

snickfic: Buffy looking over her shoulder (vamp!Willow)
[personal profile] snickfic
Yay, rare pairs. The watchwords here seem to be "sweet and functional," which is generally my favorite kind of ship, even/especially when functionality doesn't seem too likely for the pairing involved.

1. The Five Worst Things About Dating Andrew Wells (part 1 and part 2), by [livejournal.com profile] deird1
post-series - Dawn/Andrew
Technically a WIP, I suppose, these are the first two parts of Dawn's cautious quest to win for herself one Andrew Wells, and they're pretty much adorable. I just don't ship Andrew generally, but Deird totally sells me on this scenario.

[personal profile] snickfic
1. Winds Blowing Chill, by [livejournal.com profile] brutti_ma_buoni
Rulesverse
Buffy starts thinking about babies, but in the Rulesverse there are no quick fixes for the vampire reproduction problem, which leads to one of the more emotionally complex pieces of Spuffy babyfic I’ve ever read. Also: excellent Buffy voice.

Joan and Randy vs. the Replicant by [livejournal.com profile] shadowlass

One-shot, post-TR, PG. Months have passed, the gang still hasn't regained their memories, while Warren prepares to take over the world... It's hard to find an original post-TR plot bunny but Shadowlass proves that it's possible.

Fuffy fans are not particularly active on LJ. There are several pretty active Fuffy forums and fic archives online, and the majority of Fuffy shippers spend their time there, or on ff.net. Still, there are wonderful Buffy/Faith (as well as Buffy-and-Faith) fics posted on LJ.

What We Got (Is Everything) by [livejournal.com profile] deird1
http://deird1.livejournal.com/189861.html
PG, post-Chosen. Sharp, insightful and deliciously funny exploration of a possible relationship. Deird1 proves that cute and smart aren't mutually exclusive: her story is sweet without being sachharine, funny without being overtly fluffy, sexy without being too graphic. It's all about the tiny details.

Every fan has his/her own idea on how Buffy and Spike have met after he has been resurrected, and the stories about their reunions are written again and again. Fluffy, angsty, with different plot twists like amnesia, prophecies, videoblog reports, reincarnations and other genre archetypes.

so, how some of their reunions happened in 2009? )

1. What's That, Boy? (You Say Timmy's Down the Well?) (Xander/Riley, PG) by [livejournal.com profile] electricalgwen
Sumary:  Written for obsessedmuch who requested a future setting, happy couple, and a puppy. This is set rather vaguely in a future where evil is still being fought by our heroes; Riley heads up a demon-hunting/Slayer-supporting military-type unit under the control of the Council rather than the government.
Why should you read it?  PUPPY!!  Besides, Xander/Riley, in my reading experience, is an awfully cute pairing anyway ;)

It's been a good year for Fuffy shippers. (Whatever the opinions of the comics, it's not like Brian Vaughan's arc on s8 made Buffy/Faith fanfic any less intriguing.) So here's five Slayeriffic ficlets from 2007 – and narrowing it down to five wasn't easy.

If you think I'm going downtown on THIS chick, you picked the wrong chosen one. )
