Oh, yeah! Shake it, madame. Capital knockers!



cindermom: I loved her stories "Slow Motion" and "Roman Holiday".__tiana__: I recently discovered her mega-drabbles, and I really enjoy the diversity she brings to her stories. I'm trying to make time to read her long fics as well.ladyoneill: She's been in the BtVS fandom forever, and is still going! Yay! That's pretty inspirational in and of itself. She writes a lot of different pairings, so some of her stuff isn't my cup o' tea, but nobody writes smut like her. :)mrmonkeybottoms: The Buffybot's answers to Buffy's psych exam in "The Adventures of Spike & Buffybot" is one of the funniest scenes I've ever read. Her stories are pure fun.buffyx: She writes fantastic angst. It's so pretty, it hurts. Her style reminds me a bit of anniesj.Speaking of which, I miss anniesj. :( "The Ballad of Randy & Joan" and the unfinished "Waking the Dead" are still among my all-time favorites.Also, in honor of the Spuffy Kinkathon, I've decided to post a list of my fanfic kinks. A lot of things I like in fanfic are things that annoy other people. Not all, but some of them. Some of these are embarassing to admit:1. Song fics. No, not that kind. I hate stories that are built around song lyrics, or stories that have the character listen to a song and think about what another character means to them, or some bullshit like that. I mean, stories that use songs to help set the mood, or establish a setting. My favorite example is probably anniesj's "The Ballad of Randy & Joan". Also, jodyorjen's "Electrical Storm" and Dare's "The Dark Shades" are part of the reason for my U2 obsession. And cousinjean's "Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground" made me go out and buy that White Stripes album. So, I guess it helps if the author has similar musical preferences to mine. :)2. Wishverse fics. I love AUs that are built directly from canon, whether it's the Wishverse, the Normal Again universe, or a fan-created universe. "The Wish" is my second favorite episode of all time. I really want Wishverse!Spuffy.3. Vamp!Buffy fics. I really like these kinds of stories if they can manage to avoid the pitfalls of vamp-fanon: "mating", "claiming", and the use of "childe" (especially if they're capitalized). *shudder*4. Baby fics: Why do I like babyfics when I don't like babies? There's just something about the idea of Spike as a daddy that makes me "awwww...". And isn't pregnancy supposed to make you horny as hell? That's a pornalicious goldmine right there. :)5. Human AU fics: Yes, a lot of them are badly written. But when I stumble across one that isn't, it's a treat unlike any other. Normally, I don't like the high school ones, but College!Spuffy, Pirate!Spuffy, and student/teacher Spuffy, among others, are always cool.

Pirate!Spuffy is like my deep, dark, secret fic kink. Only not so much a secret anymore, I guess.;) If Buffy is the pirate and not a damsel in distress, then it's even better. I'm currently enjoying sabdhyl's "And A Star To Steer Her By".

Yeah, I've been reading that one, although I've got a lot of chapters to catch up on. :)

I really want Wishverse!Spuffy.Me too! Me too! Here I share my stash with you but there is a catch. All are WIPS.Here is a still being slowly updated WIP set in the Wishverse but with a twist called "When You Wish" by jen_nsync_landl found in herejen_nsync_landl's MemoriesThere is another pretty dark & older story called Brave New World with Buffy turned by the Master but it will never be finished...http://adultfan.nexcess.net/aff/story.php?no=3329I have another very dark never to be finished Wishverse story called This Temptous Rage if you are interested. It depends on where you stand on unfinished WIPS. There is woe in WIPs left unfinished. I have no resistance. Woe is me.

I've already read Brave New World. I'll try to check out all these stories when I get the chance. My plate is so full right now it's pathetic. And I don't mind unfinished fics, if the story is good.

:) Thanks so much! I'm glad you found my mega-drabbles interesting. I've loved writing all the scenarios that were requested - it challenges me. :) I hope you do get a chance to read some of my other stuff sometime!
