Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Star Trek, Star Wars, Doctor Who

1. Thriller by Transporter Incident. Wonderfully seasonal look at ST: TOS and all its creepy moments.
   
   
2. [VID] People I Don't Like by colls. The song is such a great match for Mon Mothma's life as we saw it on Andor. They're such subtle battles she has to fight, and I'm so glad this vid (and the show) put a spotlight on it. The restrictions and desire to unfold just a bit come out so clearly.
   
   
3. Wake Up by periru3 and tafadhali. Part of their Alanis Morrisette "Jagged Little Slayer" series of vids for Buffy the Vampire Slayer, this one focuses on the Troika across the seasons. A good look at their decisions and the damage done.
   
   
4. the Body Politic by aadler. Given his background, how did Rupert Giles become Buffy's Watcher? A conversation with Quentin Travers reveals a lot.
   
   
5. The Hero With Three Faces: October 21, 2025 by scarfman. Reading this talk between Dr. Who and La'An made me laugh.

Well, this was a surprise! While I’ve been doing Buffyfic for MANY years now, it doesn’t appear I’ve been recced on this site before. I certainly appreciate it, but I don’t see “the Body Politic” as being remotely one of my best stories, and I’m more than a little curious about what brought it to your attention when none of my other works seem to have attracted any notice.

I’m not being sarcastic, I’m genuinely grateful … and genuinely curious.

I tend to post recs every time I've got a batch of 5, and I read it recently so that's why. I probably recced earlier works of yours on buffyversetop5 over the years (as have others). Unfortunately we finally closed it after 19 years for lack of participation.

I post my recs here and at recthething. I tend to use their Thursday recs calls for fanart since I'm not reading much fic these days.

Yes, I’ve definitely seen recs for my stuff on buffyversetop5. That settles my puzzlement about this, so thanks for a speedy reply.
