The Mirror, Mirror Award for best characterization... the voices are so real that we can hear them in our heads
The Locust Affair Lady Ra
NC17-X
Great Plot. I loved the Characterization. She is what drew me into the fandom. Another one damn her, *grins*. I had to choose, this one was my fav.
Judge Not mhalachaiswords
PG 13
It's a crossover, and she gets both voices down pat. Lovely.
Parting Gifts angelic_amy
NC17-X
Great character voices!
New T. Verano
G-PG
Well if it's not the hole poor Blair thing that just makes you want to grab and cuddle him, it definitely should be the writing. I have never, ever seen an author write Blair so well.
Polishing Shoes T. Verano
G-PG
Well if it's not the hole poor Blair thing that just makes you want to grab and cuddle him, it definitely should be the writing. I have never, ever seen an author write Blair so well.
Like Sailing and Home Runs out_there/Annie
NC17-X
I love everything, but what I love most is the way the author made me feel the characters.
Reaching Out jane_davitt
NC17-X
The author makes these guys funny, touching, blunt, vulnerable, and HOT, all at the same time. Great dialogue between the characters, plus great internal dialogue for Jim, whose voice sets the tone of the narrative.
Five Minutes Mischief
PG 13
This is Methos at his snarky, funniest best having a good rant at Duncan's expense.
"Near Wild Heaven" electricalgwen
NC17-X
it's witty, it's funny, it's a wonderful flow of a BtVS situation, rewritten
Rest Ye Merry brynnmck
G-PG
Her Ray Vecchio voice is fantastic. I love Fraser's gift to Ray. The Vecchio family Christmas carols are a stitch. It's just a warm and beautifully written holiday story.
Uncontained Berty
NC17-X
Both Fraser and Ray are just marvellous in this story, delightfully in character. I can hear their voices speaking the dialogue and I love the setting darkness and the setting.
Past Life Regression sassyinkpen
NC17-X
Blair revisiting his wild youth, what's not to love. Taking Jim along with him is even better. And the story is amazingly sensual in its details; I can smell and feel and hear everything that happens. And it's hot as blazing blisters.
Reflections and Revelations Katy Hart
PG 13
A retelling of second seaon with a slight twist. The truest voices of Buffy and Xander I've written.
The Lady and the Tiger c_woodhaven
NC17-X
Very hot and angsty joint slave fic which has an original take of showing us how Tara or Xander become Spike's willing pet.
Teenage Dirtbag sukiblue
NC17-X
Very in character journey of Xander Harris as he grows up on the Hellmouth, falls for the wrong boy--who is an evil vampire. You cheer for this young, awkward white knight as he faces perils and heartbreak. Very sweet story!
Sunrise, Sunset Skitty
G-PG
Spike and Dawn had such a good friendship going that sort of fell apart. I think this is beautifully done, showing good insite not only into Spike who is the main focus of the piece, but also looking in on Dawn's point of view.
Tarts and Hearts xlivvielockex

It is a quick one shot with Drusilla and most people reacted well to it. It is very creepy but very Dru
