"Soft and Pink..." is so very good. But then I was always a sucker for Mr Gordo fic - one of the very first fics that got me hooked on fanfic was Meltha's "Last Will And Testament", which still gets to me.

red_satin_doll July 10 2014, 12:43:20 UTC

I'd frgotten about that one thank you for the reminder!

rbfvid rec'd three Mr Gordo stories yesterday including another of Meltha's Mr Gordo fics
http://rbfvid.livejournal.com/4204.html?thread=25708

Their list doesn't include a couple of Mr Gordo (and Mr Gordo/Miss Edith) fics that I had bookmarked in the Computer That Went Up in Flames (TM) last year and I can't find now, or the Spuffy one where "someone" puts Mr Gordo in Buffy's backpack during Chosen.

I feel a sudden need to make some Mr Gordo art.

rbfvid July 10 2014, 22:19:06 UTC

And I feel an urgent need to see that Mr.Gordo art)

rbfvid July 10 2014, 22:05:11 UTC

Oh, "Last Will and Testament" is absolutely fabulous! One of my favs along with Telling Porkies )
Also, I have a question for you, as you are well-established Gordo fan... There was Mr.Gordo fansite, which is still partially available via wayback machine. Do you by any chance know how to contact it's maintainer? I wanted to ask if she/he would like to upload fics to AO3 as part of open doors project, or the permission to do it myself.

red_satin_doll July 10 2014, 22:12:25 UTC

There's a Mr Gordo fansite? How did I not know about this before? *squees*

Mr Gordo is totally the most important fella in Buffy's life. So says I.

rbfvid July 10 2014, 22:17:48 UTC

Because he is a hero, you see!

red_satin_doll July 10 2014, 23:09:27 UTC

What other fella in the verse knew Buffy as a child and as an adult? In both LA and SD. NO ONE I tells ya.

rbfvid July 10 2014, 23:16:02 UTC

Buffy's relationship with Mr.Gordo - longest, fluffiest and actually the only happy relationship she ever had in this show. If you are for healthy stuff, shipping Burdo is the only choice!

PREACH.

(As long as I can keep shipping Buffy/Tara too. Buffy/Tara + Dawn and Mr Gordo= my OTFamily.)

rbfvid July 11 2014, 00:09:59 UTC

Oh, it's great OT family for me, too. Also, I would keep Spike and Miss Kitty Fantastico somewhere around, too. After all, Spike should be an expert in family relationships with toys after all those years with Dru. And he and Miss Kitty would make a terrific couple (well, yes, I have a thing for blond + brunette pairings).

red_satin_doll July 11 2014, 00:16:19 UTC

And Faith needs to be in there somewhere as sister slayer. Or Faith/Dawn - yeah that's a thing with me. (I'm fine with Willow being with Kennedy or Oz or Angel or whomever - not really fussed about that.)

And he and Miss Kitty would make a terrific couple

I'm - having very strange mental images right now.

rbfvid July 11 2014, 01:55:42 UTC

And I'm making some really strange google searches... Spike is the one who is paired LITERALLY with anyone, there MUST be a fic...

rbfvid July 11 2014, 02:22:49 UTC

Well, no luck with Spike/Kitty so far, but this Dawn/Faith story is absolutely wonderful: Down Memory Lane by snickfic.

red_satin_doll July 11 2014, 02:59:11 UTC

Snickfic? that's all I need to know! Did you read her Drusilla/Buffybot story "Tea Parties"?

rbfvid July 11 2014, 03:07:19 UTC

Yes, it's one of my favorites. And always feel free to rec any strange pairings to me, I have a thing for that kind of fics (or vids, or art))
Speaking of vids: The Buffy Odd Couples - Accidentally In Love by humblequill, if you by any chance haven't seen it)

red_satin_doll July 11 2014, 03:20:49 UTC

BTW, Down Memory Lane is reallly lovely. but that's no surprise. thank you for rec'ing it.

Speaking of vids: The Buffy Odd Couples - Accidentally In Love by humblequill, if you by any chance haven't seen it)

No I haven't! the Giles/Angel and Joyce/Xander parts made me laugh so hard - and not many fanvids make me laugh. (I think humor is very - particular? Drama is hard, tragedy is harder, comedy is damn near impossible.)

Is that a thing btw, in fanfiction- Giles and Angel slash? (Surely there must be.)

Speaking of funny fanvids, Velvetwhip rec'd an Angel crack vid "My West Hollywood Lifestyle" by jcub from 2006, have you seen? (the video doesn't start until about 13 seconds.)
