Ramblings

Unless I blinked at the wrong moment JM wasn't on last night's ep of "Smallville". I'm in withdrawal again *grumbles*.

This morning some news show had a segment on Seinfeld's Festivus at http://www.festivusbook.com. Just what we need--another mid-winter holiday. Let's startup the Saturnalia again while we're at it *more grumbles*.

On a brighter note kaygrr has written "Neon Hunting" another Xander/cop crossover this time with CSI's Warrick. Her previous fic was "City Hunting" (http://www.livejournal.com/users/kaygrr/109714.html), a L&O:SVU crossover with Stabler written over a year ago. I like this mature, competent Xander.
I do occasionally read non-Spander fics and crossovers. One that sticks in my memory is Eric Jablow's "Chaos & Disorder" at http://members.cox.net/ejablow/mmos/chaos.html which crossed the BtVSverse with L&O--what happened when those folks encountered vampires and put one on trial. There's also Sajinn's marvelous "Soft Science" at http://sajinn.com/misc/SOFTSCI.html where the investigators from Las Vegas head for Sunnydale then the Scoobies go to Las Vegas and Salustra's "A Study in White" at http://www.salustra.vague-disclaimer.org/solo_fic/studyinwhite.html which has Spike in Las Vegas with Grissom. Good reads all.

BtVS Fanfic Quotes

I've cheered myself up re-reading a few of my favorite quotes from fanfiction. All of these are credited. I have a few others that I have no idea where they are from so I won't list them.

Favorite Quotes from BtVS Slash Fanfiction:

"My cock is stupid. It dated Cordelia. Please ignore anything it tries to contribute to this discussion."--"Raising the Stakes" by Benaresq/Minitrog at http://www.minitrog.com/ben/raising.html

"He should have stopped this before it got started because he wasn't gay, no matter what his cock claimed right now."--Mangled Spells and Manlier Bits, part 5 by Lit Gal at http://geocities.com/litgal1/ficpage.html

Spike broke the kiss and panted harshly. He twined one hand into Xander’s hair and roughly pulled his head back so that their eyes met. “Luv, I’m going to have to apologize in advance,” he gritted out between pants.
“For what?” Xander’s breathing was also unsteady.
"For how fucking sore you’re gonna be tomorrow.”-"Long Time Gone" by Yindagger at http://www.geocities.com/edibbea/Yindagger.html

Spike was happy. Spike was more then happy. Spike was elated, exalted, thrilled, euphoric and he had to stop reading the thesaurus when he got bored.--"Bleed" by Ally W at http://nummytreats.forsaken-faith.org/archive/viewstory.php?sid=111

Found this to add to my collection at bloodclaim:


“Oi! Take that back, right now. Naughty whippersnapper.”
“Ooo. Say it again, baby. Makes me hot.”
Spike arched his eyebrow. “Say what? Whippersnapper?”
“God, yes!”
“You’re one strange bloke, Xan.”
“Come on over here, you dirty old man and let me snap your whipper for you.”
After Spike’s whipper had officially been snappered, they decided to move the next event into the bedroom.--"The Road to Sex Lies and Duct Tape" Ch. 30 by Bytemi at http://www.livejournal.com/tools/memories.bml?user=bytemi66&keyword=Road+to+Sex&filter=all
