The template you're holding provides access to anything stored in the firm's locked archives relating to prophecies, omens, revelations and so on. It's been suggested that a central location for fic archives and LJ community links would be appreciated...so here 'tis. So...if you have links to fic archives that you'd hate to see misplaced, or livejournal communities you want to share, this here's the place. I'll try to dig such things out of the old fic recs threads in coming weeks, but please place your favorites here.

I think I managed to do these without overlapping with Nan; of hers I'd like to add that SpikeTara has had new fic posted more than once a week over the past two months, and there are several good WIPs which will show up there before anywhere else. Sunnydale Herald is absolutely indispensible, although it's unlikely, now that Dodyskin has retired, that I'll get any more update announcements there. LJ Community list, not including Role Play and Tag fics: Bloodclaim is the most active Spander fic posting community; it contains many fics most days, and is rarely without new postings, but it is not free of just really mediocre fics. www.livejournal.com/community/bloodclaim/Spike Fics is both Het and Slash, and includes multiple ships. It is very active right now but has undergone periods of inactivity in the recent past. www.livejournal.com/community/spike_fics/Open on Sunday is a drabble community, where new 100 word self-contained fics post from late Sunday until Tuesday Evening. Some are wonderous, the large majority amusing, and it's a reliable time waster for the bored. www.livejournal.com/community/open_on_sunday/RPG Herald posts new threads for dozens of Role Playing fics and Tag fics; I've sampled most of them and will post a list of the ones I follow later. A problem with this community is that some fics proceed with glacial slowness and only update in comments, and they only list new threads. www.livejournal.com/community/rpg_herald/BTVS Slash is multi- ship, F/F and M/M, and has new fic that is not duplicated elsewhere very rarely. www.livejournal.com/community/btvs_slash/Hyperion Lobby is a self-posting fic community; after a long period of stagnation it's become a lively place to find one or two new fics a day. www.livejournal.com/community/hyperion_lobby/The year of Oz is almost over, but there are links to several ficathons, some of which are amazing- I'm particularly fond of the Oz/Devon fics, which seem to have liberated some nice storytelling. www.livejournal.com/community/year_of_oz/Slash The Drabble is a multifandom drabble and ficlet community, where challenges open Thursday evening and run to Saturday. These are 100, 200, 300, 400, or 500 precise word count fics, and are sometime wonderful. www.livejournal.com/community/slashthedrabble/SX and Violence is another Spander site, less active than Bloodclaim and largely duplicating its coverage, but worth checking once in a while to see if something unusual has shown up. www.livejournal.com/community/sxandviolence/Stay and Gloat is Giles/Ethan, good fics but not often new ones. www.livejournal.com/community/stay_and_gloat/Watcher Love is Giles/Wesley and new fics are posted 2-5 times most weeks, although lately a bit more often. Quality is higher than average. A couple of very good WIPs post here. www.livejournal.com/community/watcherlove/Spikecentric slash, rarely updated. www.livejournal.com/community/bandofbuggered/Very active story posting site; fics about historic wachers from all time periods. I need to find time to disappear into this world for a week or so soon. www.livejournal.com/community/watchersdiaries/And finally, not fic communities, but not sure where else to put these, in all their fannish goodness: James Marsters Pictures; manips, icons, and so on. www.livejournal.com/community/marsters_daily/Anthony Stuart Head photos, icons, some few manips. www.livejournal.com/community/ash_daily/Nich Brendon, photos, icons, news: www.livejournal.com/community/brendon_daily/That's what I've got. I've been looking for more het communities, but none seem very active, and I know there are Angelcentric ones, but I don't ship Angel, so... Julia, next: RPG's I follow

I'm making a leap of faith and deciding that Ficathon Master Lists fit here better than anywhere; this is the CoSoRaOb- Color Sound and Random Object- ficathon at Bloodclaim, in honor of Darkhaven's birthday. That proveniance means it's all Spander. www.livejournal.com/community/bloodclaim/571312.htmlJulia, only two fics posted so far.

Thanks to the indispensible Sunnydale Herald (see community links above), the master list of the Spuffy Kinkficathon, for which Herself's compelling and disturbing WIP is a contribution. www.livejournal.com/users/buffyx/180074.html?#cutid1Julia, daunted at trying to read a tenth of those fics

OK, part 1 of 4 (or may end up being 5). Going through my bookmarks, deleting sites no longer existing and noting those still alive. Roughly A-H, with some exceptions based on how I bookmarked them.

Prt 2of 4 (or 3 or 5, who knows!) Going through my favorites, deleting sites no longer existing and documenting those still alive to save on disc for the next time I need to replace my hard drive. And who benefits? Why, the s'cubies, of course. ;D Roughly I - R (some won't seem to fit, but it's because of how I named them in my own arcane system). I'm trying to not post ones I know are already somewhere else in the recs, but really, I have no clue. These should be mostly just the multiple author sites and archives and so on, but I may have slipped and let some individual author sites in. I also think I'm gonna try to post the individual author sites later, too. I'm trying to give an indication of what type of fic or authors are there, how active is the site, etc. But don't take these posts as a blanket recommendation of all the fic found there. Most sites will have a real mixture of quality and styles. www.impisheyes.com/home.htmlImpish Eyes - Gio’s site. Archive of Spike/Buffy and Spike/Other fic by many authors, also contains her own videos (Tired of Sex is one of my favorites), a “clip of the week” and so on. Still sporadically updated with clips. inlovewithnight.tripod.com/index.htmlInlovewithnight’s archive of her fan fic. Mult-fandoms including Buffy, Angel, Firefly, 24 Alias, Degrassi, House, Sports Night and X-Men. Slash, het and gen. ig.nearheralways.com/index2.htmlInner Geekdom – home of Xandrew fiction. Archive, essays, links, art, etc. Not upated since 10/04. mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/emptymirrors/off/offindex.htmlRec’ed here before, but it’s in my bookmarks so it’s in the list. Josey and Tania’s Fanged Four fic archive - Darla, Angelus, Drusilla and William (Spike). Fic, images, links, etc. www.myarseisnotpansy.co.uk/London Calling. Multiple authors (Leslie, Lori and Magpie) – fic featuring the English characters of BtVS or AtS – Giles, Spike, Wesley, Ethan. Contains het, slash and gen. www.geocities.com/twistedworlds/Twisted Worlds. AU Buffy and Angel slash. Multiple authors. www.mrmonkeybottoms.com/Mr. Monkeybottoms Diary. Hey, who doesn’t love Mr. Monkeybottoms? Vids, fic, fic recs and links, images, etc. etc. Het, slash and gen. www.my-immortal-beloved.co.uk/menu2.htmlMy Immortal Beloved. Another “old school” site – not apparently updated since early 2003, but site is back up (at least temporarily) after being down for a bit. Multi author slash fic archive run by Rune. www.geocities.com/crazyevildru/main.htmOrganized Insanity – Fiction located here is by CrazyEvilDru (het and slash) but also has “other author’s fic” link, so in some way it can be seen as an archive. omwh.gloria-mundi.net/Once More with Hobbits. LoTR BtVS fic by Jessica and Chris. Not an archive at all, just the one thing, but I don’t care. I’m posting it ‘cuz it’s funny. www.no-hero.org/spikenwes/index.phpPeaches Won’t Be Happy. Multi author Spike/Wes slash fic and essay archive –sorted by author. Last updated in late 2004. debchan.com/buffy/bindex.htmlLocation of a few pieces of slash fic by: Debchan, Webrain, The Spike and Te. Another “old school” site that still exists. Lola

Part 3 of who the heck knows. This may be the last, or I may have some more. Going through my favorites, deleting sites no longer existing and documenting those still alive to save on disc for the next time I need to replace my hard drive. And who benefits? Why, the s'cubies, of course. ;D Roughly S - Z. Sort of. Um. Well, just a whole bunch more that I found. I'm trying to not post ones I know are already somewhere else in the recs, but really / frankly I know that I have put some ones in that have been mentioned before, sometimes a couple times, perhaps in different places, etc. I really have no clue what I'm doing. FYI: Don't take these posts as a blanket recommendation of all the fic found there. Most sites will have a real mixture of quality and styles. www.dymphna.net/secretslash/Secret Slasha archive. Annual holiday tradition of fic written as presents. Obviously, from the title, slash only. www.ficbitch.com/slashingtheangel/Slashing the Angel. Well, pretty much summed up in the title. Slash stories that have Angel in them. There are a few het fics here in the Schizm section. Actively updated in 2005. www.geocities.com/slashingtheboys/S – A – R – G – X: slashing the boys. Slash, obviously, specializing in Spike, Angel, Riley, Graham and Xander. Another somewhat old site, not updated since mid-2004 or so. www.slashverse.com/Slashverse. Um. Slash again. (Once we hit the S’s, I suppose it was inevitable.) No idea if this will ever really do anything. Holding place for sites for several folks (Darkhavens, Literati, Medusae, etc.) – but no real content yet. Links to some LJ, a few manips and images, etc. www.madpoetess.slashcity.org/sxandviolence/S/X and Violence. BtVS Writer’s Guild zone for writing Spike/Xander. Essays, fic recs, links, resources, etc. www.btvs-tabularasa.net/Tabula Rasa. Very pro-Spike. Um. Very (But, really, like we’d have a problem with that! ) No fic per se, but essays, episode reviews, etc. No longer being updated. www.teaattheford.net/index.phpTea at the Ford. Essays, musings, meta, fic, and so on at the more intelligent end of the spectrum. btvswritersguild.dymphna.net/index.htmlThe home of the BtVS Writers Guild. All possible pairings and type of fic can be discovered or launched from here. Try simply clicking on “archives” and be amazed. www.dymphna.net/ucsl/archive/Unconventional RelationShippers fan fic archive. Slash and het – searchable by author, last update or random story. Has been updated in 2005. www.xanderxtreme.com/Xander Xtreme. Um. It’s right in the name. Xander as dom or Xander as sub – extremely sexual, usually extremely dark, non-con, etc. Adult only slash. Very very very adult only. Seriously. Don't go there unless you mean to. Lola **goes to lie down now**
