You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

You could check crack_van too.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Is there any good stuff from the Fluffy Bunnies?

t hacks up a lung

I'm sorry, you're serious?

Herrm. I cannot say, haven't been there. But consider the name. They're very much into the shmoop.

Farscape World has some fic. And Leviathan-the-list, as opposed to the archive. Glass_Onion archive.

As for people, check out themonkeycabal on LJ: that's Red, and she's written some very good stuff by herself and in combination with somedaybitch (aka Waltersgirl). You won't agree with their politics, but they're good writers.

Other sources would be the Yuletide archives and sundry people's memories. There's been a number of ficathons lately. Have you looked at the Sprogwars community? Oh, and yes, Crack_Van and Bright Shiny Objects and PolyRecs.

Thank you for those links, shrift. And thanks, Dana, I'd forgotten crack_van. Not quite sure how.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Am-Chau, I think someone's starting up a Star Wars News community like the Daily Snitch and Sunnydale Herald, too. (I thought the comm name was sw_news, but I could be off my rocker.)

If I find it, I'll post the name in here.

ION, where's all the Hall/Oates? Why is there not a huge batch of Hall/Oates?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Why is there not a huge batch of Hall/Oates?

Oh, dear god, woman. No. Please, no.

Thank you for those links, shrift.

Am, I'll try to keep an eye out from now on. If someone good posts a story, here's hoping I'm coherent enough to link y'all here.

Why is there not a huge batch of Hall/Oates?

It makes me happy to know that, no matter what cracked-out bunny I suddenly find myself craving, there are people who crave things far crackier.

Especially since it seems like, more often than not, I discover that I'm craving rare pairings in the anime/manga I've been following.

Really? Who?

Really? Who?

It could just be that I don't know where to look, since I have no idea where anything is on livejournal, but... for Yami no Matsuei, I seem to have a thing for Tatsumi, and Tatsumi/Tsuzuki. Halroprillalar got me hooked on Inui/Kaidoh for Prince of Tennis. Eleanor K. got me hooked on Anotsu/Magatsu for Blade of the Immortal. Samurai Champloo: Jin/Mugen (or, rather, anything with Jin). Bleach: Ichigo/Ishida, and I have the urge to write a story about them called Angry Dork Boys in Love. (Actually, that could be a multifandom challenge story, couldn't it?)

Fruits Basket? Mabudachi Trio in any, and dare I say every, combination. Adore Kyo. Weirdly infatuated with the idea of Kyo and Hatsuharu.

For FMA, I'm fine, because I'll read just about everything. And for Saiyuki, I'm a ginormous Sanzo whore, but also like Hakkai/Gojyo.
