So I just took a walk down memory lane rereading the BtVS Penguin AU spree of 2010.  Remember that?  If you somehow missed this, go forth and enjoy this perfectly wacky and wild moment in fandom when the stars aligned and the penguins were plentiful ( Read more... )

love, penguins, fandom

Lol! My journal writing is very "this is how I talk" so it's riddled with those common grammatical errors. I'm all cattywampus over here.

Sweetie, I love your fic, and I'm a retired, tiresome, anal-retentive English teacher who has done beta editing. To some, I'm the FGoVU/Fairy Godmother of Verbal Usage. If ever you want me to take a gander at anything. I R here!

Definitely fewer penguins, but there was a wonderful attack of rocket launcher fic. I have a feelingbeer-good-foamy was implicated, which will not wholly astonish you. Sadly, I don't seem to have any links.

It was full of not so much double as multiple entendres.

Hee! Oh yes, good times. I wrote one or two for the rocket launcher fic ( Mission Implants). I also remember the "Buffy kills a demon with a kitchen utensil" spree.

Yes, these are my two favorites! I think I have most of the links to the entries for "Buffy kills something with a kitchen utensil ... and has sex with Spike afterwards" (you left that last part out) in this post:

I think there was a run of Mr. Gordo fic for awhile. And after "Smile Time," there was a flurry of Puppet Angel fic. Possibly there may have been Mr. Gordo/Puppet Angel slash.

There was also the Fairy Spike craze. Sadly, most of those stories were so earnest and poorly written that they were funny for all the wrong reasons.

Guilty as charged!

I miss the Mr Gordo fic. There's a good archive here.

And some Willow/Tara/Gordo OT3, just because.

Now, that's the OT3 I can get behind. *off to read*

Thank you for the Gordo archive link! *genuflects*

Fandom's FRAPs are beautiful things indeed.

I seem to recall a rash of "Where did Olaf the Troll go" fics as well, though that may mostly have been speakr2customrs.
