Good stuff that I read late last year and didn't put in the gen list in December. So this is more on the shippy and/or smutty side of things, though the ratings really vary -- there's everything from practically gen to Adult Only.
(1) NOT SPUFFY
Devour the Small by Cornerofmadness (Fred/Gunn, T, 3848w, complete)
I've said it before and I'll say it again (just to have this link in one of my "regular" lists): *awesome* treatment of some lesser-known Latvian mythology!
Your Own Personal Jesus by Cornerofmadness (Connor/Faith, Explicit, 4832w, complete)
A hilarious take on superpowered sex. I think this is best enjoyed if you *don't* expect it to be very steamy, despite the rating.
Random Hot Tub Fic by debit, Teland (Xander/Giles, Explicit, 2894w, complete)
Found in the "The Author Regrets Nothing" tag. Exactly as much fun as it sounds. :)
Yes. I am a Lesbian. by thewiggins (Riley/Buffy, G, 1745w, complete)
LISTEN. This isn't Riley as you know and, possibly, dislike him. I adore this reimagining!
Masks by omphalos and Wolfling (Giles/Ethan, Explicit, 37,229w, complete)
Obviously.
Bad Habits by il_mio_capitano (Giles x Ethan, G, 3496w, complete)
(hat tip to sparrow2000 for the rec)
Man, that was SO much fun! I have no words to do justice to the Ethanness of it all.
Unwrapping by brutti_ma_buoni (Spike/Drusilla, R, 850w, complete)
(h/t sparrow2000 again)
Creepily in-character, poignant and magical.
Icarus, tethered to a kite string by deird1 (Willow/Kennedy, T, 2448w, complete)
Seriously cute! I think I read this shortly after joining the People Who Don't Hate Kennedy Club, so all the moments of actually *liking* Kennedy in this story were novel and marvelous. Really enjoyed it.
(2) YES SPUFFY
Grandma Got Run Over by Sleipnir by Iamblichus (Spuffy, NC-17, 12,741w, complete). Elysian Fields link.
Fabulous use of mythology/folklore! Also some sweet smutty fun times.
Photographs by Fancyflautist (Spuffy, PG-13, oneshot, complete)
I found this modern AU absolutely delightful.
Predicaments by OffYourBird (Spuffy, Adult Only, 13,303w, complete). AO3 link.
Featuring: some highly entertaining metaphor use by the Scoobies! The joys of internet cafes! Kink exploration with a huge emphasis on trust and communication! The follow-up that Buffy's "Bell. Neck." line has always deserved! And a roleplay scene that melted my brain. :)
