Love Makes You Do the Wacky: Top 5 Willow Rosenberg Fic Recs
1. Willow (1/1) by iwrotethat (PG-13/T) - Bits and pieces of Willow's life.
This is my favorite Willow fic. It's a lovingly crafted portrait, that doesn't make Willow too sappy nor too dark. The author has a wonderful understanding of the character. It's just an excellent study of Willow.
2. Deus Otiosis by annakovsky (PG-13) - During the Season 7 episode "Empty Places," Willow thinks about the Scoobies and what they've lost.
3. Fabled and Fabulous by jennyo (PG-13) - I rarely get through a themed fic recs list without including something by Jennifer-Oksana. Willow meets the dragon lady and lives to tell the tale. (Lilah/Willow) May be more of a Lilah story than a Willow story, but there's still a lot of Willow in the fic.
4. Istanbul by bookishwench (FRC) - Five years after Sunnydale, Willow sees a familiar face: “Hey,” he said, giving her a hug. “Long time, no see.”
I love so much that this is Oz's entire reaction to seeing Willow again in an entirely unexpected place, after not seeing her for the longest time.
5. Talk by Fabrisse (PG-13) - Giles and Willow discuss Magic--and other things. Sometimes metaphors have to be taken literally--and subtext is rapidly becoming talk, er, text.
