As far as I'm aware, the authors on this list posted their first Buffyverse work this year (though I'm not necessarily linking their first work, and also it might be a one-off in between their works for other fandoms).

Advice to the Lovelorn by rosa_himmelblau (crossover with House, M.D., Spike, Greg House, background House/Wilson)
Dr. House meets Spike, to great comedic effect.

So to prove that I don’t just read Xander-centric fic, here are five that I really like that don’t have a Xander anywhere in sight!

In The Time of Wolves by [livejournal.com profile] valyssia is a brilliant study of Willow’s grief after Joyce’s death. There’s just something about this one that gets right under my skin.

And there’s more... )

Unsettled (Lilah/Wesley, NC-17)

Lilah and Wesley aren't the hand holding type. This fic makes that very clear.

Undercover (Lilah/Sunday, NC-17)


Lilah goes to UC Sunnydale and runs into a bossy blonde vampire. Fun and sexy.

Impressive (Unimpressed) (Lilah/Kendra, R)


Lilah makes bargains in the wishverse while Kendra does what she can to push back the dark.

Employee of the Century (Lilah/Saffron, PG Firefly crossover)


Lilah is still fierce and flawless in space while recruiting a new employee for Wolfram & Hart.

I Can Play Games 'Cause I Know All the Masks (Lilah/Wesley, R)


Well-written and emotional, LIlah and Wesley do what they can in season four.

I wasn't much of a Dawn fan when I watched the show and I don't think I'm alone in that, either. However, that changed when I started reading fanfiction. Dawn's one of those characters that has highly benefited from some serious character exploration by fic writers because we can take her out of the context of simply being Buffy's sister or the catalyst of conflict for Season 5, and really delve into who she is as a person. Each of these fics take one aspect of her and run with it to full affect.

1. The Down Below by Devil Piglet
Spike & Dawn, R, S7 post "Lessons"
Summary: Spike and Dawn have some unfinished business.

Review: Devil Piglet was one of the finest early Buffyverse writers we had and I miss her work dearly. While perhaps best known for her Spuffy, DP also created a number of fics that featured Dawn and I think this is one of her best. The show only gave us a glimpse of the animosity that Dawn felt for Spike after the events of "Seeing Red," but this fics takes those feelings of betrayal, hurt and vengeance to the next logical level. When did Dawn become so scary? I'd say just about the time this fic was first posted. A lovely, dark read with a beautiful conclusion.

Lilah's not a character that we see very much of in fandom, but she was one I always loved on the show. Here are a few fics that I've read over the years that struck a particular cord. They're all one-shots.
 
1. Perpetuity by [livejournal.com profile] likeadeuce 
Rating: NC-17
Setting: Post-NFA
Pairing: Wes/Lilah
Summary: Wesley meets a familiar face, over and over and over again.

1. Absolution - Part I and Part II by [livejournal.com profile] minim_calibre (R) - This is my all-time favorite Wesley story (which is why it's above the cut). It's definitely in the Top 10 Best Buffyverse fan fictions I've ever read--probably in My Top Ten Best Fanfics Ever, in any fandom, actually. It also has the distinction of being the first baby!fic I'd read that I thought actually *worked*. This is particularly surprising, considering that it's the Chosen One herself who is pregnant (given the heading of this post, you likely can already guess who the father is). However, this story actually deals with the implications of the Hellmouth being sans Slayer. I mean, you really can't do a roundhouse kick in the third trimester. Without this fic, I probably would have never dared to read any other baby!fics, since it is a genre that is so rarely well-done.

[livejournal.com profile] open_on_sunday is one of my favorite communities. Mark Twain was right: writing something long is easier than writing something short, and in this comm folks do an amazing job, week after week, capturing our Buffyverse favorites in precisely 100 words. And now and again, there's sex (fans self).

Here are 5 of the sexiest drabbles that appeared in [livejournal.com profile] open_on_sunday in 2005.
