my soc test
Bullet Point One:
From trkkr47:
So this is how it goes (pasted from the original post): I'll rec three writers, pointing out two of their stories that I love. These three writers will copy/paste the list to their journal and add three more. Kinda like a pay-it-forward thing. Recs cannot be repeated so each new person must read the list and make sure they don't rec a writer that's on it. Making sense so far? By the end of this there should be like a million billion recs! Or something. Just thought it'd be fun ::smile::
1. reremouse Mainly for the newspaper!verse. I re-read every single story last weekend. A lot of the stories made me laugh, a couple made me cry, and a whoooole bunch made me need a cold shower! Also love the psychic!verse. The set up is wonderful and Xander's voice is very compelling.
2. tabaqui. If you're not reading Changes then you're missing out on a hell of a great story! The simplest thing I can say about it is that it feels real. Like the series could actually have gone that way. The characters are beautifully portrayed, their voices are true and look! Derio! ::grin:: Second rec, I'm torn between Credence and Hero. I'll go for Hero. Cause it made me cry. It's a human AU in which Spike takes care of a kinda delusional Xander (that'd be putting it mildly). It's wonderful and like I said, it made me cry.
3. crazydiamondsue. Sunday Morning Coming Down. Read it. No really, read it. Set post-Glory. The scoobs are dealing with Buffy's death. Spike and Xander get close and I don't know what happens next cause she hasn't posted it! ::pouts:: And also Rodeo. She wrote that for me ::proud grin:: It's a cowboy AU, set in a gay rodeo (did you know they had those? Cause I didn't!) Xander's the new guy and Angel's the old champion guy. It's hot and lovely and I'm still hoping for a sequel. ::optimistic smile::
4. darkhavens I love her Grungefic, which was just updated yesterday. Powerful Season One Spander with Spike taking care of Xander who's grieving for Jesse. And she has oodles of drabbles which are lovely to read based on the open_on_Sunday challenges. Great stuff.
5. sukibluefiction. My dear friend has the wonderful From Out of Nowhere series which has romance and adventure and angst. Fun to read Spander. I got a sneak peek at her next one and boy is it good!! And her Facing Fear series about to finish up? Is freaking hilarious!! With a sick Xander and a Spike that's afraid of spiders it's a classic in the making!
6. kyrieane If you haven't drooled over the Giovanni Series you are missing out on a lot of steamy Spander smut!! And her Ride a Cowboy series started the trend for Spike and Xander in leather chaps.
7. cleeaz You just have to read Working Man, it's just fantastic. A wonderful portrayal of an independent and confident Xander. (The eye patch is incredibly sexy!) And I just love her WIP, Future Hope, i'm on the edge of my seat with that one. (Am also on my knees praying for a X/S/A threesome!)
8. amejisuto Just two many bloody good stories to mention. Ame really has something for everyone. My favs. WIP Blood Ties, this is one of the best Mpregs ever written. It's funny, angsty and just makes you wanna rescue the boys and kick some ass! And the second one, Cats and Dogs. Spike and Xan get turned into domestic pets. Spike is a cat and Xan is a dog. Very funny, and Xan as a dog? Spot on. If he was a dog, he'd be just like this!!!
9. flufshepherd I am just loving Fluffy's beatles playlist. H/C with Spike helping out a depressed Xander. And also love Sour Revenge, which is where Xander casts that naughty little love spell, but with a bloody good twist!!! ~gets on knees and begs for more of both~
10. ficbitcabear. I started reading Bear
