xena -- I can't stop!

I noticed that re-reccing has actually been a good thing since a lot of people who are new to this LJ (or the Xena fandom) get to read recs that are long-buried.

Any list of my Xena favs (actually, my any fandom favs) would have to include Apocalypse I - Nemesisand its sequel Apocalypse II - Inferno, by Brigit Morgan, Mature. Be warned up front that this series is unfinished, but there's so much here already and the series does reach a climax of sorts, if not the final one. I really can't say enough about these fics. They're absolutely stunningly well-written and conceived. One of the most ingenious post-Fin resurrection fics I've encountered. More than that, this is just flat-out excellent writing. Gabrielle, after Xena's death, makes her way to Rome hoping to die there. Of course with Nero in power and Meridian, assassin of the gods, running around it's not going to be that easy for the bard. Absolutely brilliant! Also, it fits my serious kink for hotwarrior!Gabrielle because this really is Gab's fic.

Also, I should give credit for all of my lovely Xena icons. This gorgeous icon was stolen from [livejournal.com profile] theholyinnocent. The Gabrielle 'Warrior' icon was [livejournal.com profile] cila89's work. All the rest are [livejournal.com profile] thrace_'s genius.

Hey! femslash_today missed me or whatever, but my 18-part Xenafic is being posted one chapter a week, currently up to 12:

Xena, Warrior Princess: Sleeping With the Enemy

Set just after Ten Little Warlords, when Xena did *not* get her body back out of the blue for no apparent reason, and is still stuck in Callisto. Xena/Gabrielle sub and maintext, Meg/Joxer on the side, and a few other surprises...

Oh yeah, and after months of chewing up words and spitting them out, I hope to soon post a new chapter of the first Faith/Willow episode. Just call the Great Procrastinator :S
