Slayers: Once Burned, Twice Shy
Characters/Pairings: Lina/Naga, Amelia
Warnings: None
Summary: Lina tells Amelia the tale of her ex. Well, kind of.
Comments: Oddly, I’d never thought of Lina/Naga before the first time I read this fic, umpteen years ago. And it remains the only good Lina/Naga fic I’ve ever read. It just…really works well with both their personalities, and I can see it. And I like Chris Davies’ writing style.
One-shot, complete.

Something Important
Characters/Pairings: Lord of Nightmares
Warnings: None
Summary: The diary of someone whose name begins with L.
Comments: This is just one of the single most memorable fanfics I have ever read. I have held onto this bookmark through three computers, and what, probably five, six years. It’s just a fascinating idea.
One-shot, complete.

Not His Century
Characters/Pairings: Milgazia. Mentions of Lina, Xellos, and Valgaav.
Warnings: None
Spoilers: Well, you won’t get it unless you’ve seen through Try.
Summary: Milgazia’s having a bad century.
Comments: You remember the Golden Dragon who helped Lina find the Claire Bible? Yep. It’s a fic about him. And his abominable luck. Oddly, I always had a strange affection for him in the series.
One-shot, complete.

The Desert
Characters/Pairings: Gaav/Valgaav
Warnings:
Spoilers: For Slayers Try.
Summary: The rise and fall of Gaav and Valgaav’s relationship, in five drabbles.
Comments: Look. It’s Harukami. Writing about what I always thought was the most intriguing couple in Slayers. How could I not rec this? (Ignore the fact that it’s been in my to-be-recced pile since April. Shut up. I’m lazy. Hence the name of the site.)
Series of five drabbles, complete.

No Song of Solomon
Pairings: ….Lina/Gourry?
Warnings: Crack. Comments on breast size. Poor Gourry
Summary: Gourry should know not to take advice from Amelia. Or learn to avoid the topic of Lina’s breast size. Or both, really.
Comments: Poor Gourry. Poor, poor Gourry. What makes this even more ironic to me is that I was just reading the Song of Solomon for one of my lit classes yesterday, and Gourry’s attempted compliments really aren’t much more mind boggling than the original. Poor, poor, poor Gourry.
One-shot, complete.

WHAT! The Beastmaster is THAT Woman?!
Pairings: Luna/Xelas
Warnings: Yuri. Yay.
Spoilers: You never actually meet either of these people in the anime. And I haven’t read enough of the manga to know much about them. So, possible manga spoilers. If you care.
Summary: Lina finally meets the mysterious Beastmaster. And finds she already knows her.
Comments: I have had an utterly irrational fondness for this pairing for many, many years. I would try to figure it out, but I figure if it’s been more than three years, I don’t care. It’s two characters who never met in series, who you barely meet in series, who nonetheless work well together. And it’s really fun to watch Lina’s reaction. Although if Harukami manages to pull me back into Slayers fandom I may cry.
One-shot, complete.

Slayers Reflect, Slayers Chaos, and Slayers Rebirth
Pairings: Little Lina/Gourry
Warnings: Long. Very long
Summary: …Trying to summarize this is like trying to summarize all three Slayers seasons. Except the person’s already familiar with Slayers, and just wants to know the plotline. Of three different novels. Not gonna.
Comments: Well, I just sat down at my computer to read fanfiction for the first time today, and am totally not finding anything in the fandoms I’m currently into. So I decided to rec one of my old favorites instead. This is an amazingly well done series of fics that are long, well-written, and actually do manage to keep a lot of the feel of Slayers one they’re into a plotline. (Admittedly, I frequently find Slayers’ filler eps to be the most entertaining. THat isn’t the point.) It’s just…it’s the sort of fic that got me into fanfiction in the first place.
Notes: I am getting neosporin all over my bloody keyboard while typing. My damn cat managed to bite my hand right where the wound’s reopened every time I move my fingers. And it’s infected. And I wanted to bitch, dammit. And let you know that if I’m not reccing much for the next couple days, blame my cat.
Multi-chapter, complete.
