Rec me a fic!

[lunabee34]

Hey everybody! I want to read some angsty angsty angsty slash. I wanna go through a whole box of tissues. I wanna curse the world and try to pick up the shattered bits of my heart when I'm done. Anybody got any suggestions? I'd prefer Spander but I'll take any paring really. Might be kind fun to read outside my OTP for a bit.

I've already read "Changes" and "Repossession" and "Coming Around Again" and "Angst Monkey" and "Nice Shirt." What else can you lovelies come up with for me?

Best Laid Plans (http://www.jstabesmut.angelicvampyre.com/viewstory.php?sid=1) by jstabe. Unhappy ending and lots and lots of tears.

Waiting Here (http://www.abfic.com/waitinghere.html) by Alexandria Brown. It's one of the few long fics she finished before she stopped writing in the fandom.

Have a good cry luv.

Well, you could always try for "29 Linear Moves (http://www.excessant.com/fiction/yindagger/29_linear_moves.htm) and it's sequel "49 Circular Moves" by secondverse.

I've actually got a whole slew of my fav links listed here (http://www.kyrispainteddreams.com/saifailinks.html), but some you might want to try include: "Healing (http://www.geocities.com/kiwileesa2000/healing)" by JamesChick, "Long Time Gone (http://www.geocities.com/edibbea/LTGhome.html)" another by secondverse, and "Lost Soul (http://www.echosrevenge.com/buffy/lostsoul.html)" by Echos Revenge and Creed Cascade.

*gr* I'm just full of links today, ain't I?

Thanks, Sweet. Wesley fics....hmmmmm. I'm intrigued.

*runs to check it out*

While you're at Tabaqui's website, check out Credence. It's a WIP, but the angst wagon is building up a head of steam and it's being regularly updated. Join me in my impatient Credence-watching.

I just love that WIP; I was so glad Tabaqui updated it recently. My heart just hurts for Xander; he wants Oz so much. But he can't have him. (which is the point of Spander; I know. Damn glossing making me all Xander/Oz-y with "Nice Shirt". *g*


I was so glad that Spike is developing real feelings for Xander in "Credence"; in the first couple of chapters, I wasn't certain how the dynamic was gonna play out between them. I was afraid it would be a master!pet Spike manipulates Xander deal, but I"m glad that's not the case.

Thanks for the rec, Sweetie.

Spike fondly believes he's in control of that relationship. Spike has some waking up to do. It is so open how all that will resolve, I can't wait to see what happens next.

[lunabee34.livejournal.com]

You and me both, hon.

I was so upset at first that NMSaL was going to be posted every two weeks, but since then we've had an update of "Credence" and the conclusion to "And Ice For my Wounded Heart." I can totally deal with the delay if that's the payoff. :)

I just finished re-reading Jackson's "Sweet Revenge." (http://www.biteable.co.uk/jackson/fics/srindex.html) If your looking for angst, it's got it in spades. Hopefully I got that link right! It's Spander of course!

[lunabee34.livejournal.com]

You got the link right, darlin'

I just read that myself a week or so ago, and you're right. That's exactly the fic I was looking for. God, the pain between them.

*sob sob sniffle*

Thanks for the rec, luv.
