Time for your 2018 recs! And don't forget there are more recs being shared on Dreamwidth that you can browse. Here are some to kick us off:

Sunrise by iseetheyelloweyed. A Saint Sebastian oriented Buffy and Angel fan art – a pretty fascinating take and the colors seem perfect. Read more... )

1. The Heart Stone, by [livejournal.com profile] carlyinrome, (Kendra/OFC) is a tale of a budding romance between Kendra and an unforgettable OFC. It's short but manages to pack in heart-thumping action, humor, and all the feels in the world.

Five favorite Giles-centric stories of the past year, arranged from shortest to longest. Well, five and a bonus.

Reluctant Masquerade by [livejournal.com profile] xspike4evax. A bit of Giles POV on Wesley circa BtVS season 3, perfectly spot-on.

Déjà vu by [livejournal.com profile] darkheartwalsh (DHW). There is a dead woman in his bed. It isn't the first time.
Stunning and absolutely heartbreaking portrayal of Giles soon after "The Gift". Also, it's probably the most efficient parallel I've ever seen used in buffyverse fics.

I couldn't come up with any unifying theme other than "I liked these."

Moon Gods by pug. Oz/Willow, Rated Teen.
This is a gorgeous description of a few moments for Oz and Willow on a full moon night in Season Four. Pug has a really different take on Oz/Willow than I’ve seen before, using evocative language and imagery to create something stark and poetic and beautiful.

[livejournal.com profile] deird1 is one of my favorite Buffyverse writers. She's very prolific, and I can't choose only 5 fics - so I make three separate lists. Here's the first one.

PG. Season 7 through the eyes of Chao-Ahn. Brilliant continuation of ideas of non-verbal communication, started in Hush.

The Girl with Flaxen Hair by [livejournal.com profile] unbridled_b
http://unbridled-b.livejournal.com/tag/the%20girl%20with%20flaxen%20hair
R, 9 chapters so far. After his mother's death William Pratt lives a quiet life alone. He suffers from consumption and knows that his days are numbered. One day he overdoses laudanum and sees a beautiful girl in his garden. Her clothes are unusual; her behavior is weird; her name is Buffy Summers. William is sure that she's just a figment of his imagination so he's relaxed and comfortable around her... Intriguing premise (the author assures that it's not an AU and all the BtVS events have happened), expertly written William's POV and great details of the Victorian age make this story a total winner. (I've already have a theory what has happened and why William hasn't been turned... )

You know those little stories that manage to get inside you and then either punch you in the gut or make you laugh until it hurts, all within a 100 words? And you know that delightful little community [livejournal.com profile] open_on_sunday that gives people a specific prompt once a week? Obviously, choosing only five drabbles out of literallly hundreds is barely scratching the surface, but... here's five favourites.

For whatever reason, it seems to be hard to find videos about Buffy, unless they're about her love life. Here are five of my favorites that are just about Buffy herself.

1. Peacekeeper, by [livejournal.com profile] sisabet - "Buffy battles the dark origins of her powers. Literally." No list of Buffy videos can start without Sisabet's classic, haunting vid.
