    Summary

    This happens to be the 15th anniversary of the Buffyverse Top 5 community, created to share recs in the Buffy and Angel fandoms, and later the other Joss Whedon productions. This timing is particularly fitting because I have spent several months since our 2019 session going through every post in the community (1,846 of them!) as part of an effort to locate recced content on AO3.

    This gave me a unique perspective on patterns in the fandom which might be much the same for other fandoms which began in the pre-AO3 online era, and which may also have lost a number of their works over the years.

    Summary

    This story is set during the S2 episode "Killed by Death," after Giles burns down the factory but before the vampires move into the mansion. There's a bad flu going around Sunnydale, and Spike apparently is not immune. Maybe Drusilla made him wrong. (But she thinks he's just perfect.)

    Summary

    A post at the TWC symposium blog caught my attention as it focused on a strand of fanfic I don't see enough of. I'm not sure I'm convinced that threesome fic, particularly the M/F/M variety, is growing in quantity. Of course, that may be because I've been reading in SPN fandom for the past few years and simple het is scarce on the ground. But as our Classic Recs session just ended again at buffyversetop5, it was easy enough to look at the numbers in a verse that was built on het.

    Summary

    An enormous amount of drinking seems to go on in many fics. This stands out to me for two reasons. The first is that the amount of drinking seen compared to the amount of smoking and drug use is very imbalanced. And it seems to me that a central reason is that in canon we hardly ever see these characters smoking or using drugs, but we do often see them drink.

    Summary

    I was considering something I mentioned in a discussion about "This is the Picture", which was the repeated use of young women as mentally ill or institutionalized in Joss Whedon's work and how Spike was a rare male recurring character who was shown in the same way. That led me to thinking more about his ensoulment, duality in the Buffyverse, and the larger forces at play in the final seasons of Buffy and Angel.

    Summary

    Although Angel and Wesley both are in the business of saving people, particularly once they join forces in AtS, there are two cases that stand out for each of them for very personal reasons: Faith and Connor. In these cases the distinctly different approaches that guide Angel and Wes can be seen.

    Summary

    In the last year I have been reading more stories about a post-Shansu Spike. Given the ending of AtS that isn’t really a surprise. There were stories about a Shansu!Spike before AtS S5 even started. But I’m still hoping for a definitive version of one and I think this is what it might look like.

    It always seemed significant to me that Spike’s final task was to save a baby in the AtS finale, I just wasn’t sure why.

    Summary

    Because I am in the midst of the March Meta Matters Challenge, I've been reviewing my Dreamwidth account since its early days. I was surprised to realize that fan video recs made up a lot of my first two years of posts. And as I read over them, I realized how important they were to my fannish experience at the time and what they revealed to me about canon.

    Summary

    There are fascinating details in this look at Joss Whedon's visual landscapes and themes, but also a message involving communication efforts blocked and overcome resulting in personal connections and decisive action.

    Inspired by This is the Picture by obsessive24.
