Have you ever wished for icons for a character(s) or a fandom; art for a story, podfic or fanmix you’ve created; a podfic for a story you’ve written; or a story for some artwork you’ve created? Do you have a plotbunny you’d like someone to adopt?

Maybe you'd like to find more people to squee with over your favourite fandom; or someone to collaborate with over a project? If you are new to a fandom would you like some story recs, or communities to join? Or would you like some recommendations for a new fandom?



1. I would love links to fanfic - either your own or someone else's - that explores the canon, be it 'missing" scenes, what-if scenarios, scenes from the POV of other characters. My interests are Harry Potter, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Schitt's Creek, Buffy, or Firefly. Doesn't have to be gen, but can be. I'm definitely not one for romance-only fic. AU's are also fine, but less "they're all in high school" and more so exploring what might have been if such and such had happened.

2. Speaking of Firefly, I would like a complete fic that explores what the series may have turned out to be, if anyone has any recs? There was a "Firefly season two" fic probably fifteen years ago, but IIRC the project was abandoned. (No judgment, I'm certainly not one to talk.)

3. This rec is very specific: Someone posted a wonderful Hogwarts Founders' fic, but adulthood ensued and I had to pause very early in. Then technology ensued, and I lost the tab. Anyone know what I'm talking about? And/or have other Founders' Fic recs?

4. The ability to not be up at the crack of dawn. No one can help me with this, alas. ;)

I can't help you with 4 but I can certainly sympathise, I have the same problem.

Those sound like wishes than I am sure people will be able to help with. I did dabble a little in the Firefly fandom as I loved the show, so I'll go take a look and see what links I have.

Thank you for sharing your wish list :)

Flamethrower has founders fic as part of her Linear Circle series if you haven’t read them.

Love missing scene fic. Sadly I don't have any suggestions for you. I hope your wishes get granted. (Even 4, if someone can do that. *g*)

4. I can commiserate on the whole wishing to not wake-up at the crack of dawn. I know it doesn't cure it, but know that you're not alone.

1. Peptuck's Forward on FFN! I can't remember if it's technically finished or not, but it's 500k+ of post-Miranda Wave fallout and machinations. It's been a while since I read it, but I remember it being really interesting. ((Also, the "canon" second season of Firefly is an official comic, kind of like the "canon" eighth season of Buffy is an official comic. It first released in 2018, and is on volume #24 as of last December. You might be able to find the Legacy or Unification Wars collections at your local comic shop. Otherwise I think you can get it through the Dark Horse Comics or ComiXology apps? I didn't read it, but that's because I was salty about the Buffy comic))

i actually have two firefly recs! sea of no cares, by poisontaster, which is the story of how wash came from a family of sailors to become a pilot, and consecration, by fox1013, which is a hanukah story without a single jewish character. so canon-compliant, and not really a what-if. but very good and heartfelt.

>>1. I would love links to fanfic - either your own or someone else's - that explores the canon, be it 'missing" scenes, what-if scenarios, scenes from the POV of other characters. <<

Not on your fanlist, but a bullseye for your topical request:

"Going Down"
Summary: This is a missing scene which explains why 10 double-agents thought it would somehow be a good idea to ambush Captain America in an elevator.

"Those Little Slices of Death"
Summary: Hulk is unhappy with how Pepper has treated Tony, and feels that he can do better.

>>3. This rec is very specific: Someone posted a wonderful Hogwarts Founders' fic, but adulthood ensued and I had to pause very early in. Then technology ensued, and I lost the tab. Anyone know what I'm talking about? And/or have other Founders' Fic recs?<<

Of a Linear Circle is a mindblowing series that spans Founders' time and Harry time.

I suppose I could put forward The Greatest Ambition, one of my own works, on the topic of what Hogwarts might be like with a more explicitly welcoming focus than it had in the books.

I've got some what-if and missing scene fics in Firefly and Buffy, as it happens.

The Truth of Wings, a Firefly what-if fic that explores all the different ways things would have gone if even one of the crew had never come to Serenity.

Learning Curve, the Firefly missing scenes that explain Saffron's backstory.

Memorial, a Buffy fic exploring what might have happened if Buffy had traumatic amnesia went she ran off to LA after killing Angel.

Unknowing, a Buffy fic about what could have happened if raising Buffy from the dead went even worse than it did.

Five People Who Weren't Surprised to See the World End, a collection of missing scenes of Buffy and Angel characters reacting to the apocalypse at the end of Angel.
