What are the five love stories that you love the most, in canon or fan sources (fanfic, vids, other)?


Because I am such a fan of angst this list will be quite painful. I think "Happily Ever After" is so much sweeter if you've gone through hell (or in Buffy's case, heaven) to get there . Since none of my favorites are canon, I'll post links to my favorite stories for each pairing.

These aren't in any particular order.

1. Duncan/Methos (Highlander): The bleeding heart and the man who was Death on a horse. Talk about angst :)
Favorite angst ridden love story: Kiss the Steel by [personal profile] lastrega FRAO
the sequel: Kiss of Shadows FRAO

2. Blake/Avon (Blake's 7): They are so much alike that the only chance for real happiness lies in AU or AR stories. Their chemistry is undeniable though.
Favorite angst ridden love story: The Last Best Hope by Melody Clark FRAO
the sequel: The Long Way Back FRAO

3. Spike/Xander (BtVS): An impossible pairing to say the least.
Favorite angst ridden love story: Changes by [personal profile] tabaqui FRAO

4. Avon/Vila (Blake's 7): Avon's inability to trust for fear of betrayal makes this pairing...difficult. The best chance for them may be PGP (Post Gauda Prime) or in AU/AR stories.
I've only just started reading this pairing so I haven't found a 'novel length' story yet (if one even exists). However, this one (while short, relatively speaking) fits quite well with the over all theme here.
Lament, Part 1 by M. Fae Glasgow  FRM
the sequel: Lament, Part 2 (Love's Great Adventure) FRAO


5. Buffy/Giles (BtVS): Not nearly as angst ridden as the others listed here, usually.
I have however found a few angsty love stories (not a surprise really. Is it?)
Death Brings Clarity Series by J.K. Philips FRAO


Honorable Mention: Giles/Ethan (BtVS): Can't get more angst ridden than this really.
I have never found a 'Happy Ever After' story for this pairing. I have recently found a series that is really quite good and as close as Giles and Ethan might ever get to a happily ever after.

There are many more wonderful stories in all of these pairings and choosing one favorite is sometimes near impossible.
