doyleThere's been a pay-it-forward type rec meme doing the rounds. ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dodyskin recced me (with a blurb I fully intend stealing for my userinfo) so now I rec three others.
1.fox1013. When I think of Amy, two things spring to mind: Dawn and muppets. As far as I know she hasn't yet combined the two in a fic, but if she did: oh, baby. In the meantime, I love Things to Know While Living in Sunnydale (An Annotated List by Dawn Summers) (season 7 Dawn/Amanda/Faith) and Disco Inferno (Dawn/Wesley). The characterization, the writing, it's all beautiful. Even without muppets.
2.voleuse. Oh, man. I'm reading through her archive and she writes so many characters and pairings and they're all so good. I'll rec Queen of Swords, a gorgeous S1 Tara/Jenny that doesn't have any feedback comments, and the Pirates of the Caribbean crossover Sometimes Blessings, because I wouldn't have believed anybody could pull off Illyria/Jack Sparrow.
3.kattahj has another crossover I love, An Encounter With Death, with Doyle getting another chance after he meets the Discworld's Death. Then there's her Birthdayverse series: Wes/Gunn, a season 1 rewrite, and what sucked me into this was the involvement of Alonna and Anne. Alonna is wonderfully written, this smart and strong and brave little sister for Gunn, and it makes me wish we could have seen more of her in canon.
mpoetess has a masterlist, for which I'm very grateful, because things like this make my OCD shoot into overdrive shrieking "lists! Must make lists!"
