My first fandom! Aww. I started off reading Xander/Cordelia, then Spike/Buffy--neither of which you will find here. This is mostly slash from the S4/S5 era. Occasionally I do read a new Buffy story, but it has to be pretty well-reccomended.

Chocolatey Goodness by Mad Poetess. Yes, I know. Everyone and their mother has already read this. But it's one of the first slash fics I ever read, and I still adore it. It overlooks things, as most X/S does, but then, so does the show. A WIP that's no longer being updated, but still funny, smutty, and worth reading.

In Repair by Immicolia. In which Immi shows off her love for all minor characters. I still love Warren and Andrew -- they were the only thing about the season that was handled right, IMHO.

World Without Shrimp by Rabbit and Kassie. Yep, it's het. Not even het pairings I usually *like,* either. But it's an AU, a completely believable one, and because it's fanfiction there's more follow-through than there could ever be in an actual episode.

Sidelines by Anna S. A great rewrite of season four - Xander goes through some identity issues, instead of Willow. Prolly the most plausible X/S I've ever come across.

The Big Rock Candy Mountain by Basingstoke. An Andrew AU of epic proportions, the only downside of which is that you'll have the song stuck in your head forever. Which you already do by now anyway, so why not read it? Multiple pairings, pretty depressing, and spoilers for all seasons.
