This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.

Victor has a few longish stories up, all Buffyverse, one a Manchild crossover.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

All Rheanna's Angel fic is worth a look. First fanfic I read in any genre, and it was wonderful for helping me cope with the Summer holiday between-seasons blues. Read like missing episodes of Season 1/2 Angel.

And who can forget Yahtzee's classic Phoenix Burning? Written after the end of BtVS season 5, and thoroughly gripping. Excellent OCs, lovely prose style, spot on characterisation. Loved this.

Lust Over Pendle, and its sequels. HP fic, set in the post-war future. Plotty more than romantic, but features Neville and Draco as central characters in an established relationship. I do not exaggerate when I say that AJ Hall's Neville and Draco are right next to Austen's Darcy and Elizabeth in my mental list of beloved fictional pairings. Funny as hell, very well researched, beautifully written, all round must-read.

Tissue of Silver by Fearless Diva - futurefic, Harry/Draco, plotty and detailed and hits most of my kink buttons along the way. Gah.

Hey. New board.

Hee. I've read LoP et cetera, as well as Phoenix Burning. In fact, just re-read them both (all of the AJ Hall stuff, in fact). But your taste is excellent, so I'll be checking out the others.

If you didn't notice that I've already read it, I'm disappointed that you didn't pimp yourself, though. Because Invisible to See was fab and you should always pimp it. I do. I've turned friends to fic with it, actually.

And thanks for the Buffyverse links, Plei and Deena. I'll be looking at those too.

Hey. New board.

I made Fay blush. =)

Now reading Tissue of Silver on my palm pilot. I'll be away for a while doing that. Thanks for the recs, everybody!

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I'll draw special attention to the Rheanna/Yahtzee joint effort Splinter, which was like reading an episode script to me.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

For long Harry Potter, try Resonant's "Transfigurations", which totally did not make me cry in my car as I sat there, reading it on my lunch break.

And, you know, the rest of her stuff.

Also, I have no idea if Gilmore Girls even *has* novel-length fics. At least, good ones.

Actually, I read a series of false scripts (5 or 6 of them) on a GG slash archive somewhere that ended in Paris/Rory at some point. AU season 4 I guess (or, rather, AU after-Season-3). I liked them, I'll see if I can find them again.

ETA: It's [link] and the author's name is Rocky. They were pretty decent, often quite funny. Most of the other stuff in the archive I didn't love as much, though there were some short Paris/Rory gems. I think Paris/Rory is my OTP.
