SUMMARY: Buffy awakens from death to find a world vastly changed.

This story kicks ass. Serious ass. I cannot emphasise just how much ass it kicks!

If you read Buffy/Angel fanfic at all, you must read this.

Huge thanks to amilyn who recced the fic!

Oh God yes.

This fic is wonderful. You shipping B/A now? Cuz I can give you recs.

[seldearslj.livejournal.com]

Hmm...I think that's a 'yes'.

[seldearslj.livejournal.com]

LOL. I'll always be an "endshipper" for B/A, and even if not, I'd be at least a "friendshipper"!

The pairing that most draws me to write (whether friendship, partnership, romantic, or sexual) is Wes/Faith. But I think I can do B/A as a sideline. Or a short story.

Hee! *g* Love this one.

I'm also very fond of As Time Goes By, which is a version of Casablanca with the Angel characters.

I don't think I know of many Wes/Faith fics. I remember reading a few when Salvage aired, I just don't remember where. Maybe it was Silverlake. Hmm.

In regards to B/A, I am a complete whore. This obsession has been going on for eight years *g* indiefic (also a Sam/Jack shipper) writes some of the best Buffy/Angel stuff. Her archive is here (http://www.indie.bitchenvy.com/ficindex.html).

I've *cough*

[seldearslj.livejournal.com]

I don't think I know of many Wes/Faith fics.

It's not a huge following, and most of it seems to be PWP. However, there are some really good character pieces out there. I'm trying to set up a list of recs. Maybe this week while I have a lot of time on my hands.

[havocthecat]

That's okay. You don't have to in order to read the fic, iirc. *g* It just gives it added dimension.

[seldearslj.livejournal.com]

Okay. :)

*bounces along*

It's just taken me ages to copy into word (don't ask) so that I can read it offline. Just one question - what's "AU"? Alternative something??

I'll start it this lunchtime :)

[seldearslj.livejournal.com]

AU = Alternative Universe.

Where the story splits away from canon and goes elsewhere...

[sleekuk.livejournal.com]

Aaah. Thanks hon. Thought it might be that. Looking forward to reading it - take my mind off things :)

[seldearslj.livejournal.com]

This will really blow your mind! It's good!

And if there's anything else I can suggest to get your mind off things, lemme know and I'll see what I can dig up!

[sleekuk.livejournal.com]

A single ticket back to Sydney please?!

[seldearslj.livejournal.com]

Hon, I can't even afford my own RTW ticket for July-August this year!

But if I could, I'd get you that ticket for sure! Kidnap you and draaaaag you back here! :)

[sleekuk.livejournal.com]

I'll lose enough weight and you could stick me in your suitcase?!

[seldearslj.livejournal.com]

Keels, you're not exactly a heavyweight, darl!

Pity I can't transfigure you into something and take you back with me that way...

*hugs*

[cailetr.livejournal.com]

Read it! Agreed, it's very good, laugh out loud good in some places. Thanks for introducing me to it! *huggles*

[seldearslj.livejournal.com]

Eh. NP. :)

[saramund.livejournal.com]

Wow, Sel. Thanks for the rec. I'd read that story years ago - and loved it - (when I still read B/A fic) but had fogotten ALL about it.

Now it's gotten me going 'hmmm... B/A.. *drool*'

Now, if you get any more good B/A fics, PLEASE rec me!

*G*

You can count on it! ;)
