YAY!

It's done!

You can find my massive Shipper Manifesto/Recs right here! I hope you enjoy it and that you maybe find a fic or two that you haven't read or that you'd forgotten all about.

I apologize to everyone whose wonderful fic I couldn't fit on the list, but seriously? The thing was taking over my life. There are so many more wonderful fics (many written by members of my flist) that didn't fit into any category and so didn't make the list but are certainly worth reading. I really do love you! And I will gladly pimp you out any time!

The manifesto is partially adapted from my post a few days ago, but I've made quite a few changes, so if you actually want to wade through it, it might be worth it to you.

And don't miss out on xlivvielockex's gorgeous Cordy/Angel list and anythingbutgrey's explosively excited Wes/Lilah list (which I look forward to reading EVERY WORD OF once my brain solidifies again). And definitely take a look around and see what else you can find that's relevant to your interests!

Thanks so much to all of you for suggestions/links/thoughts/etc. I couldn't have done it without you!

As an extension of that, please feel free to correct me on anything in the post. I juuuuust posted it, so you might find a broken link or something else embarrassing. I do want you to tell me!

Some of the Ratings/Warnings are missing in the stories links. Not a big deal, just thought you might want to know. :)

I actually only put ratings for the ones that were A) NC-17 or B) had something to legitimately warn about. I figured everything below NC-17 doesn't really need to be warned for and a lot of them don't have ratings.

However, if I have some time in the next day or two, I'll try to hunt down the ratings for all the rest.

Thanks!

Makes sense, just didn't know if you missed it or not.

I clicked on it and I saw ~THE GIF~ and I knew it would be happy times for all!

I can't wait to find the time to check out yours. I'm sure it is a glorious thing--and longer than mine!

Hey - I just saw a tiny typo in your lovely manifesto.

They’ve gone through such terrible pain, hurting each other in every way possible, and now is the time when they can learn about forgiveness and about how it isn’t enough just sit around and brood over past misdeeds: they have to do what they do best: adapt and carry on.

Also, this is a small thing - and possibly intentional - but have a word repeat in two sentences very close together:

Grudgingly, she agrees not to kill him--he’s harmless, after all--and once more Spike is pulled into her orbit.

Still, it’s going to be a while before love enters their story. They have to snark and grouse at each other first, before eventually they start--grudgingly--working together.

Oooh! Thank you! I greatly appreciate that!

You're welcome! It really is such a beautiful piece!

I am so excited to see this rec list, many of my own favorites here and many I have not seen yet - and your meta too! I can't read it right now but I will asap - thanks!
