Birthday Fic and awards

[cornerofmadness]

Here's the second chapter of bashipforever 's birthday fic, Just a Devil with Love to Spare in which Buffy makes the boys pay for their drunken lechery. Thanks to ELD for the beta and to Kristi herself for all the great suggestions.

And now awards. From the Of Stakes and Spells awards (check them out for their last round, physical prizes to be awarded) , two for Dream within a Dream, a post Chosen/Home AR of S5 wip where Connor and Dawn are dating (to Angel's chagrin) when Buffy/Faith arrive for the holidays. This is one I could use input on since I set it aside and now need to find direction. (especially for Lindsey. I know he's there to help but for the life of me I don't remember with what). One for best angst and best fic in gen.

  

 

And won a bundle from The Potential Awards (as always check out these awards and the challenges)

Fata Viam Invenient won a black rose and for best action. This is the Connor/Gwen (trust me, it works) future fic  

Walk a Mile in Sorrow, the Dawn pregnancy story that kicked off Box of Crayons took runner up in the Dawn/Anya/WIllow category  

And another Crayon story The Holly Green , the Sorcha/Angel/Buffy christmas tale, took a best quote award  

 

The games of Childhood, the Steven/Holtz tie up and hide and seek in hell story took runner up for best Connor/Wes/Lindsey and runner up for most original plot   

And Here at Life's End, the angsty AR of S5 where Connor DID blow himself up and Angel has to deal with the aftermath took best other male.  

 

aren't they all just wonderful and pretty?

Just a Devil with Love to Spare is a hoot! I giggled all through Buffy's revenge. I'm looking forward to more.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Hopefully more will be coming soon.

[lejlkwiet.livejournal.com]

Lol, congrats on getting EVEN MORE awards!

And it's a pity OSAS is closing down. :S

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

thanks. Yes i have a nice collection of the things

Yeah it is but I can understand RL pressures.

[lejlkwiet.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I can too, that's the main reason I haven't yet started up an award site or something along those lines, if I do I'd want to be able to keep up with it and right now I just wouldn't be able to.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

same here. That's why I never even volunteer to judge. I just don't have that kind of time sadly

[lejlkwiet.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'd love to be taking more part in the fanfiction world :S

[dragonydreams.livejournal.com]

Congrats on all the new awards!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

thank you

[bashipforever.livejournal.com]

*DIES* I love love love and adore my story :D

Thank you so much :)

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you like it. I hope to get the ending done soon.

[fickledame.livejournal.com]

I just read Dream within a Dream and really enjoyed it. Looking forward to more!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

thanks. I just wish I had more...damn characters

[fickledame.livejournal.com]

lol, know that feeling.

You have to get to Buffy arriving and her reaction to everything...and the ring, at least!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

hmmm is that all the further it IS on the website. Sigh. It's much further along over at ffn. sob.

[fickledame.livejournal.com]

What's the link to where it's further along please?

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1356574/1/

I think this is longer than on the site. You know how to avoid pop up city with ffn yes?

[fickledame.livejournal.com]

No... but I don't get pop ups anyway with XP!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

really. I have XP and it's still pop up city on this end

[fickledame.livejournal.com]

It's service pack two or something? When it tells you to download stuff...do it!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

I did and it totally messed up my computer and I had to systems restore. Totally inabled my cd-rom and other essential systems.

[fickledame.livejournal.com]

Oh, eek. It didn't do that to me. I'm not sure, but that's what blocks my pop ups. It's excellent actually, not a single pop up since.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

what it was doing was messing with all executable files on my data discs treating them as viruses which totally ruined their use for classroom work for me and any student who used that system.

[fickledame.livejournal.com]

Loved Just a Devil with Love to Spare as well :)

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

thanks. Glad you like it. I'm working on the ending for that

[stephanierb.livejournal.com]

I don't think I've ever left you feedback for Dream within a Dream. I really enjoyed what you've written so far, and I hope you plan to continue it soon. I like the complications that have arisen from Dawn dating Connor, particularly since Connor doesn't know who he is and Buffy is on her way to LA. You do a great job of writing Angel and Connor's relationship and I'm looking forward to reading where you're going to take it next.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

Thanks, and like I said this one is open to suggestion since I left it lie too long and lost some of the story threads.

[stephanierb.livejournal.com]

Open to suggestion, huh? Hmmmmm.*rubs chin*

I wanted to edit my earlier post but since you can't edit comments, I just deleted it. However, I didn't want to not leave feedback for Just a Devil with Love to Spare. I thoroughly enjoyed Buffy's revenge and I got a chuckle out of Angel's reaction. This fic is a lot of fun, I hope the rest is coming soon.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

yeah the not able to edit comments thing is vaguely annoying (especially if you're RPGing with these things.

But thank you about the Vegas story. I'm glad you're enjoying. I'm trying to finish it up tonight and will post it when Kristi gets back from...Vegas

[makd.livejournal.com]

Wow! Impressive. Congratulations on all the wonderful awards!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

Thanks. Yeah I'm a happy girl. Now if only professional publishers thought I was all that.

[leni-ba.livejournal.com]

Pwetty!! :-D Again, congratulations.

Question though, is there a pick up site for the TPA this round?

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

nope. well maybe. I dunno. Ragna mailed me my awards.

and thanks. my CYA challenge has me thinking of Hieronymous Bosch.

Just a Devil with Love to Spare

Buffy's revenge is funny as hell, though I have to cover my eyes at the B/A bits. *g*

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

Thanks, I'm glad you're enjoying it. You'll have to cover your eyes more in ch 3 Spike was supposed to do more but I think he's busy coveringhis eyes too and misbehaving with Illyria (don't ask where this is coming from. I hated Fred passionately but I'll ship Illyria with several people)
