There are FIFTEEN whole offerings for the Buffyverse fandom in [community profile] fandomtrumpshate this year! I hope all of them get bids, and I hope some lovely Buffyverse fanworks ensue (which is not a given, because everyone who's offering Buffyverse is also offering other fandoms in the same auctions).

I have had this list almost ready to post for a year. Now that February is upon us again, its time has come. :) In the BtVS part of it, I added notes on how gen each story is to facilitate the avoiding of romance for anyone who would like a post-Valentine's palate cleanser.

Critical Role (Campaign 2) )

Fandom: BtVS
Character: Riley
Rating: worksafe, unless your boss is homophobic
Notes: This is a tribute to thewiggins' female Riley from the 2019 oneshot Yes. I Am a Lesbian., who lives rent free in my head. None of the people in the photos are meant to be an exact face claim for this alternate Riley; it's about the vibes!

I received two lovely Buffyverse gifts for [community profile] fandomtrumpshate 2024.

gothicgrrl1976 wrote me a unique and sweet post-series Xander/Oz story in six chapters with interesting worldbuilding, Be Not Afraid. (I had asked for a pairing on the rarer side and bee references.) By the way, the Major Character Death doesn't happen during the story, but is a past canon event!

And CorinaLannister kindly remixed my story "Its Own Shape", because I think my own stories didn't nearly exhaust the potential of Willow/Katrina. The resulting oneshot, Thanks, Willow, is extremely cute and features an ace romance!

Uh, I live. I've been distracted by mostly good things. Anyway!

To go with the yellow-white-purple-black (*nonbinary pride flag) color scheme of the outer layer, I snuck some Gender into the patterns. They're traditional Latvian ornaments, or sometimes my stylized interpretations of them. The Sun sign was historically mostly used on women's folk costumes, while the Moon sign was for men's clothes; so I used both of them and also the star, which we might have borrowed from Finno-Ugric cultures (so from people who are free of grammatical genders). Also, the zigzag kind of combines the signs and colors of one male deity and one female deity. The other patterns are various lucky symbols.

seasonal_spuffy / The Future of Seasonal Spuffy
In years past lj/dw was the fandom place to be, sadly this is no longer true. The SS mods feel it is time to “face the music” and we (as a community) have to decide what our next step should be.


Any seasonal_spuffy members here who haven't seen the latest mod post yet? It's poll time! :)

Mad respect to the mods for finding all these potential ways forward and discussing them with the members instead of letting SS quietly peter out or drop off the face of the planet the way so many comms have. Before I opened the poll, I thought going out in style was the best seasonal_spuffy could do at this point, but after reading the poll options I'm not so sure anymore. :)

* My Anya story The Balm of Amarynthia is complete as of late last night. It's 12 K words in three chapters.

* I never mentioned here that the Buffybot & Harmony AU Totally Real (Like, Really) (formerly known as "Unicorns are Totally Real") is also complete on AO3 as of late last year, in the sense that I've edited and crossposted the parts that were ready for AO3 and I think it probably works as a standalone story. It has 4 chapters and is 16 K words total. If you read it on Dreamwidth, there aren't any new chapters on AO3.

I've been writing this on and off ever since [personal profile] resonant made that inspiring post about trope twisting. Chapters 2 and 3 still need stylistic edits, but I wanted to start posting during Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week. :)

This year's Headline Awards have been posted, along with the award banners I made: Prize Banners & Comments | Headline. Feast your eyes, whomsoever it may interest! Lots of solid fic/art recs as usual. 💙

Artist friends, I can recommend this photo as texture material. It's posted in enormous resolution, so I cropped out just the smooth part under the text that says "fine gold", and it gave a warm and sparkly glow to all the banners.

(Also, more credits ).)

The day job has been intense these past few weeks. In fannish news, I decided that maybe the reason I was struggling to write the next chapter for "Unicorns Are Totally Real" was that the main plot is largely wrapped up. So I'm crossposting the first four chapters as a complete work on AO3 with minor edits. It will have a bit of an open ending, but nevertheless one that ought to work as an ending, I believe. And then MAYBE later there will be sequels.

🥳

Totally Real (Like, Really) (2153 words) by thenewbuzwuzz
Chapters: 1/4
Fandom: Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV), Angel: the Series
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Buffybot & Harmony Kendall
Characters: Buffybot (BtVS), Harmony Kendall, Original Demon Character(s)
Additional Tags: Friendship, Comedy, Road Trips, Spike Cameo, POV Outsider, (for one chapter), Ambiguous/Open Ending, Robot Feels
Summary:

Willow fixed the Buffybot right after "Intervention", obviously. This is the story of how Harmony made a new best friend with an unfortunate yen for the worst goal in the world: Spike's love. Join them on a road trip full of misunderstandings, girl power, and weird kitties!

Posted my Seasonal Spuffy entry late last night. :)

Vidlet: Obsessed With You (worksafe)
Summary: this short Spike POV video is a tribute to two flavors of early Spuffy: best enemies in denial and Spike's feral gremlin era. The Spuffy ride wouldn't be nearly as fun without these humble beginnings and unhinged detours. :')

Let it be known that the atheist paladin from Exandria Unlimited: Calamity made me ugly cry IRL, tears and snot streaming down my face, the works. I don't think I've reacted this way to a story in decades.
