Miscellaneous recworthies unearthed from my journal archives, alphabetized by title of show and—in most cases—featured female character's first name!


ANGEL: THE SERIES (and crossovers)

Videos:

Title: I Can't Decide
Music: Scissor Sisters, "I Can't Decide"
Summary: Lock the doors and close the blinds—we're going for a ride. An excellent overview of Darla's relationship with Angel on both shows. Watch out for David Boreanaz's wig in those flashbacks! Warnings for language, sex, violence, and implied rape.

Title: Love Is Nothing
Music: Liz Phair, "Love Is Nothing"
Summary: Love is nothing, nothing, nothing like they say / You gotta get up and work the people every day. Tiny, adorable, [bitter]sweetly perfect. Fred and Gunn.

Stories:

( 27 stories: Darla, Fred, Kate, and with other women (Drusilla, Cordelia, Harmony, Lilah...) and men; includes crossovers with BtVS, Stargate Atlantis, Dexter )

BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER (and crossovers)

Stories:

( 13 stories: Anya with other women (Tara, Cordelia, Buffy, Willow, Lilah...) and men; includes crossovers with AtS )

Fanlisting:

The Anya & Xander fanlisting, with an episodic history, images, and quotes. Pretty design, too!


HOMICIDE: LIFE ON THE STREET

The Birthday Girl. "Happy birthday, Detective Scooby Doo." Short. Kay and fellow detectives on the morning of her 34th birthday, in season 2. Perfect dialogue and characterization—funny, brisk, just sweet enough. Like a missing scene from the show.


THE WIRE

The Hustle. Kima is the new McNulty. AMAZING take on Kima after season 4, and on everything that's come before for her and for Jimmy. Pitch-perfect in the spirit of the show: the nuances of dialogue, characterization, every last thing.
