Cupid Bow Mouth

This I know, but it's impossible to avoid. I'm not that good a person. My fandom leaves me heart broken and green with envy.

Feedback the authors, please.

There are more recs from the lynnevitational in the previous post. Feed them, too.

tkp has written disturbing, heart breaking Angel/Connor. If the pairing disturbs you DON’T read it. What made this difficult reading for me were Connor’s exquisite vulnerability and Angel’s fractured longing. They’re both looking for connection. The fact that this is written in the Jasmine-verse makes it a million times more poignant because of Jasmine’s influence and the way that it has changed Angel, but perhaps more importantly, the way that it has not changed Connor.

She'll fall deeper, fly farther, just close her eyes and be away.


You guys! Please read this, rec it and leave the author lots and lots and lots of love!!!

I've got 98 emails sitting in my ibox from the last year reccing fic. There were 100 but I managed to whittle it down by two. :) Got to get on the ball. All of that fantastic writing just a wastin'. So to give myself a bit of a kick in the pants I give you the two that made the cut of the first eight or so recs. (There were four or five in each email from the recent BBF archive day.)


One of Them Extreme Makeover Thingies by Tania
Rating: R (although I think I'd put it at more of a PG-13)
Spoilers: Season 5 Smile Time
Summary: Post Smile Time, Spike has several ideas about how Angel could bide his time.

Fun for the whole family. An adorable interlude.



Good Man by Huzzelwhat
Rating: R
Spoilers: Post-Bargaining AU
Summary: Xander does clean-up duty.

Dark and creepy. Another divine example of how very wrong things could have gone after Bargaining. Huzzlewhat hints at the outcome of Willow's spell, just barely showing us what's really going on. The suggestion and Xander's unique way of staring at the world from the corners of his eyes make this little piece delightfully horrible. I like that Xander's special world view is challenged and upheld all at once.

To warn you, if incest is one of those fic rules you don't break and if you're unwilling to peek, I'd definitly turn back now.

For everyone else:

I *highly* recommed Glossolalia's Bath and a Story. If I could write like anyone, this would be one.

ETA: Forgot to add the pertinent info. Angel/Connor S4 - Apocalypse Nowish.
