This was supposed to be on my profile, but it got too big. Also, it took too long, and I was dead to the world by 7 pm. It's now 11:49 pm and Lars has just turned on the techno.
Fandoms I used to swim in, in somewhat-order, and the defining fics for me:
Main fics linked are the ones of such awesome dimensions, intricacies, stayle and maturity that I will never forget them, and they will always be the appex of my fandom-readings. By "briefly" I mean I didn't delve so deeply that I got acquianted with most of the authors and communities.
ETA: *grumblebloodyhtmlgrumble*
BtVS/AtS - Journeys by Mary
- honourable mention Survivors by Whistler84 and The Watchers' Diaries: The Apocrypha by Caro
Comments: My first fandom. *sniffle*
Star Wars - Knight Moves (interspesed with A Life Less Ordinary) by Iaga
Comments: limited to Darth Maul, thus the websites are The Sith Academy (at whose feet I lay the blame for my total conversion to slash) and dmeb2.net.
Honorable mention: Hell by jedimom
Planet of the Apes 2000 - which was a very short foray, as there's near nothing
X-Men the movie - Beneath The Harrow by Siubhan
Comments: I know I read quite a good bit of this fandom, but it was ages ago and all.

Comments: This was during that rough patch where I found a bunch of really interesting stories but lacked the willpower to read them. Which means I have a ton of fic-links lying about somewhere.
