Spike/Xander story panic

[estepheia]

Shriek! I was going to transfer the bookmarks of my favorite S/X stories to my web-based bookmark site:
http://del.icio.us/estepheia
And what happens? Most of my links are obsolete! Obsolete equals very very bad. We are not amused.

I remember a very fluffy S/X fic called Bleed - Xander has terrible nose-bleeds. I can't remember the name of the author. Lore? Lori? Gone. Grrrrr.

*whine* So now I have to google all these stories in the hopes of finding archives that are still active/alive/around.

What does this tell me? That I should kick my husband's bottom. He promised (ages ago) to set up another archive for me so that I can archive stories that I like. I don't want to lose the stories when the fans leave. Stories like poshcat's Brothers in Arms for instance...

I guess I have to mail order a transmogrifier (TM Calvin & Hobbes) so I can clone myself a few times. That way I can delegate all the archiving to myself while I write and cook and clean and read lots of porn. Sounds like a plan.

Psst, if you're not too busy, why not drop me a link to your favorite S/X or Ethan fic? Archived fics (as opposed to LJ) preferred...

Bleed, by AllyW http://nummytreats.forsaken-faith.org/archive/viewstory.php?sid=111

::looks smug::

Any more?!

Thank you

Man, you're good!!! *tips hat*

Any more? Uh... I vaguely recall a crossover with Neverwhere. I have no clue who wrote it... it was fun... does that ring a bell?

Boy, my memory sucks.

Re: Thank you

Nuts! No, sorry, can't help you there. I could do Bleed because you knew the title and I had it saved so it was easy to go see who wrote it and Google for it.

Neverwhere? Gaiman?

Re: Thank you

Yup, Gaiman's Neverwhere. A grimoire gets stolen and Spike has to hunt down the thief. Xander pretends to be Spike's consort. I usually hate consort fics, but I liked this one. I think it may have been called Anywhen....

I will do more story hunting and link updating in a couple of days, but right now my muse is cooperating, and if my muse is willing to help me write, I certainly won't spend hours browsing and googling. ;-)

Well, as luck would have it, someone has just asked for 'favourite fic' recs (http://www.livejournal.com/community/bloodclaim/1048744.html) over at bloodclaim and there are some good links there. And while you're there, if you check the links in the column to the left, near the bottom, there's a Recs one that gives even more (hopefully still live) fic links.

I have quite a lot saved on my hard drive, if that's any help - could e-mail to you.

[estepheia.livejournal.com]

Ooh, do you know where I can find Anywhen? I think that's the title of the Neverwhere crossover...
Thank you for your offer. :-)

[trepkos.livejournal.com]

Don't have that but I have Brothers in Arms...
...drc1 will probably know where the other is!

I did a post to pin down some of my old faves when I was concerned about the future state of my computer.
See here. (http://www.livejournal.com/users/paperk8/39232.html)

Oh goody, that's very useful. Thanks. Will definitely go through that list as soon as I have the time. :-)
Cheers.
