¡Dígame!

Because I'm avoiding the lesson plans I'm supposed to be writing:

Comment with the last really fabulous piece of fanfic you read (or, alternately, the last piece that you just really loved, regardless of degree of fabulousness) - short or long, old or new, by a BNF or someone you've never heard of, any pairing, any rating. Share the love!

(Regarding the title of this post: it's Spanish and translates to "Tell me!", which is a common greeting here in Central America, especially over the phone or by a service person. I rather like it, because it's so very direct.

There. You've had your Spanish lesson for the day. *g*)

A few from the Buffyverse, and some from elsewhere.

Spuffy:
Dirty Back Road and its sequels by The Deadly Hook.

Long Day's Journey and more by anaross.

Spuffy and Ensemble:
If it's Tuesday, this must be Sunnydale and more by Miss Murchison.

Spike:
Ingression by his_luv_pet.

Spike & Angel:
The First Few Steps by girlpire.

The following non-Buffyverse fics are one-shots.

The X-files:
Black Hole Season by Penumbra.
(I left the X-files fandom ten years ago, but I still read this for its incredible blend of science and poetry.)

Torchwood:
Twenty things to do in Cardiff when you're dead by phineyj. (About an undead guy. Mentions BtVS.)

Harry Potter:
Mors Mortis by kindkit. (Featuring an apocalypse and an immortal.)

You and I were talking about Ingression fairly recently, weren't we? Or am I thinking of someone else? Either way, it's quite interesting, isn't it? There's so little Buffyverse fic that engages with any kind of organized religion. It's no wonder, I suppose, considering how terribly muddled the Buffyverse is about metaphysics.

And oh, I adore Long Day's Journey. I'd read a bunch of Anaross's stuff and recognized how good a writer she was, but it wasn't until that story that I fell in love. The Cordy&Spike bonding! The Buffy&Harmony bonding! Everything with Harmony, really. Yummy.

I will definitely have to check out that Spike&Angel piece. I've heard wonderful things about girlpire, but mostly about her slash; I'm most interested to check out something gen.

Thanks for all the linkiness!

You're right, we did have a conversation about Ingression! No wonder it leapt to my attention when I was browsing for titles to post here :)

Harmony in Journey may be my favorite characterization of her. I should read that again soon.
