This list includes all of my posted fanfiction, except for unfinished things and a few short pieces that I never even gave titles to. Some of my early Buffyverse stories aren't on LJ, and in those cases I've linked to my (moribund) website. All the stories that are on LJ are also tagged; see the "fic" tags on my sidebar.

Within each category, stories are listed in reverse chronological order with the most recent at the top. I've included only the title and main characters here; see the header of each story for rating, any warnings, etc.

Please let me know if there are any problems with these links.

Title: The Next Generation
Fandom: Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Characters: Buffy, Willow, Xander
Rating: teen
Word count: 640
Spoilers: Includes vague spoilers for Star Trek XI as well as not-vague ones for events in Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Warnings: None needed.
Summary: Joyce Summers, Trekkie.
Notes: Written for malnpudl, whose asked for someone of the older BtVS generation who'd watched the original Star Trek either rewatching it or seeing the new movie. I ended up writing something a little different from the prompt, but the spirit is there, I hope. Incidentally, this story takes no account of any events in the Buffy Season 8 comics.

I'm now taking one new request; the first commenter can name a fandom, a character or pairing, and a brief prompt. Full details about how this works, including a list of fandoms I can write, are here.

Below the cut there's discussion of "Day of the Dove," "For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky," and "The Tholian Web." Contains spoilers for these episodes; also contains my thoughts on OT3s and hairpieces.

Rating: all ages

Discussion (with spoilers) under the cut about "And the Children Shall Lead," "Is There in Truth No Beauty?" and "The Spectre of the Gun."

I haven't been able to write anything for quite a while, which is frustrating. In an attempt to get over the block, I'm starting up another session of the ficlet project I play with now and then.

Here's how it works: you give me a request with a fandom, a character or two (or a pairing) and a brief prompt. The prompt should be something that can be written at drabble length, so please keep it simple and don't ask for an epic plot. Within a day or two I'll post the result and then accept a new request from the first commenter.

This system, with the first commenter getting to request, isn't meant as a contest or as a way to force people to comment. If I post a story in a fandom you don't know or don't care about, but you want to make a request, feel free to just jump in without reading or commenting on the ficlet I posted.

I will only accept one request per day. I don't want a backlog building up, because it makes me anxious. Also, once I've written a request for you, please don't make another request for a week or so even if you are the first commenter again.

I'm most comfortable writing boyslash and gen, and for this round I'll ask you not to request het or girlslash. Since I'm doing this because of writer's block, I want to stay a little bit in my comfort zone. Don't feel that you can only ask for my favorite fandoms or pairings, though. Just know that if your prompt involves something I feel I can't write, I may ask you to change it.

Below the cut are the fandoms I can write.

( a longish list )

And now I'll accept one prompt from whoever comments first.

This gets my vote for most homoerotic scene in TOS (so far, anyway).

( video clip below the cut )

I needed a little time away from watching Star Trek, but I've resumed now and have started season 3 of TOS. Spoilers under the cut for "Spock's Brain," "The Enterprise Incident," and "The Paradise Syndrome."

I just watched the first part of Torchwood's "Children of Earth" mini-series.

( spoilers )

Snagged from penknife:

Inspired by Doctor Who's "Turn Left:" Pick one of my stories and tell me a point in the tale that you'd change. Something tiny (e.g. "and then Fay chose silver glitter instead of gold") or big (e.g. "and then Rose was arrested instead of Jack") and I'll tell you how that one difference would have altered the course of the entire story.

I'm hoping this will help ease me out of my persisent inability/disinclination to write. We shall see.

Another old story not previously posted to LJ.

Title: The Dying of the Light
Fandom: Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Pairing: Giles/Ethan
Rating: Adult
Series: The seventh and final story in the With Your Crooked Heart series; click here and scroll down for the series masterlist.
Warning (very spoilery): (skip) Terminal illness, character death, suicide.
Summary: Ethan rages; Giles doesn't.
Word count: 1080
Notes: I think this is a happy ending. Your mileage may vary.

Another old story not previously posted on LJ.

Title: Oxford Revisited
Fandom: Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Pairing: Giles/Ethan
Rating: Adult
Series: Fifth story in the With Your Crooked Heart series; click here and scroll down for the series masterlist.
Warning: None needed.
Summary: Giles remembers the good times.
Word count: 5840
Notes: The internal chronology of this series varies from the writing order; I wrote this story shortly after "Going On," so it's more beginner-ish than "Addiction" and "Debt." The title's stolen from Brideshead Revisited, of course, and Giles's Oxford owes more to Waugh's than it does to what I imagine Oxford was really like in the 1970s.

Another old story not previously posted on LJ.

Title: Addiction
Fandom: Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Pairing: Ethan/Giles
Rating: adult
Series: Third story in the With Your Crooked Heart series; click here and scroll down for the series masterlist.
Warning (somewhat spoilery): (skip) Domestic abuse, graphic violence, explicit references to torture.
Summary: Ethan remembers the bad times.
Word count: 1580
Notes: Set during the events of the previous story, "Going On," but from Ethan's POV. I still like a lot of things about this story.


( Addiction )

This is another old fanfic that I only posted to mailing lists and Geocities, not to LJ; since Geocities is closing down, I'm adding those stories here.

Title: Going On
Fandom: Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Pairing: Giles/Ethan
Rating: adult
Series: Second story in the With Your Crooked Heart series; click here and scroll down for a series masterlist.
Warning (somewhat spoilery): (skip) Explicit references to torture and murder; references to rape.
Summary: Giles rescues Ethan from the Initiative. Now what?
Word count: 10,298
Notes: This was written in the summer of 2003, so it doesn't take into account later Buffyverse canon from Angel. This isn't the old story I'm most embarrassed by, but only because in a fit of fannish giddiness I once wrote Xander/Spike wedding fic (which I am not reposting). Hurt/comfort, obvious lack of research into medical and psychological issues, and so much schmoop that even a schmoop-positive friend of mine got twitchy reading this story. It's amazing how many badfic tropes I picked up very quickly; fortunately, I soon met some good writers who provided a much better example.


( Going On )

This is the first of several Buffyverse stories that I wrote before I had an LJ, and which were posted on my Geocities website but never here. Geocities will be closing soon, and although I'm slightly tempted to consign these stories to deserved oblivion, I've decided not to. They're around elsewhere on the internet, through the Wayback Machine if nothing else, and at least here they're under my control as far as formatting, headers, and shamefaced disclaimers so on.

As it happens, this is the very first piece of fanfiction I ever wrote. I posted it to a couple of Yahoo groups back in May of 2003. It got some positive comments, including a couple of the "write more" type, and I was so new to fandom that I did write more; "Demons" ended up being the first story in a series. Some of the later stories are decent-ish, which is another reason for not burying this in an unmarked grave at midnight with a stake through its pixels.


Title: Demons
Fandom: Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Pairing: Ethan/Giles
Rating: Adult
Series: First story in the With Your Crooked Heart series; click here and scroll down for a series master list.
Warnings: (skip) References to domestic violence.
Summary: A missing scene from "A New Man."
Word count: 2923
Notes: Allow me to restate that this is the first fanfic I ever wrote. I apologize for the purple prose and the mix of first-person and second-person point of view. I do think the basic idea's good, though.


( Demons )

Happy birthday (not quite belatedly) to stunt_muppet and (a few hours early) to sineala!

*****

One of the things I've realized from this debate is that, as much as I'm in favor of warnings, I've been doing my fic headers in a very unhelpful way. If there's no warning needed, I've been saying nothing rather than saying "no warning needed." That means a reader can't distinguish between my lack of warnings and the lack of warnings by an author who just doesn't warn ever.

So from now on, all my fic headers will include a line about warnings. If the story does NOT include any common triggers (rape/nonconsensual sex, dubious consent, child abuse, incest, domestic violence, torture, graphic violence, suicide, self-harm, character death) the line will read "Warnings: None needed."

All warnings will be opt-in, meaning you have to highlight to read. I'll use the method explained here by Amadi, which is workable for PCs, Macs, and screenreaders, and includes the option for people using screenreaders to skip the warning.

If the warning is spoilery, in my opinion, I will note that before the warning itself.

I'm going back and adding this to all my old fics, but it'll take a while.

If you ever want to know more about a particular story before reading it, please feel free to e-mail me (my e-mail address is in my userinfo) or send me a Private Message.
