ice cream for freaks: buffy and angel fanfic recs

Gunn/Wesley

Comfortable
by Shrift
Humour; mid S3
Wes and Gunn are totally oblivious to why they're fighting over Fred. The dialogue's great, both for the main guys and the rest of the Fang Gang.

Lights, Camera and One More Regret
by *Kee and Dae
Humour; Vignette

Wes/Gunn, but in the mildest mild way (no more explicit than say, the "homoerotic buddy cop" stuff from Spin the Bottle) as Very!Drunk!Wes! tries to insist that he can dance. The dialogue's great and this is a lot of fun.

Little Deeds
by Shrift
Romance; S2 - Epiphany
'Wesley angsts, Gunn hammers, and fuzziness ensues.'

Mr and Mrs Bickerson
by Shrift
Humour; Romance; mid S3
To paraphrase (or, y'know, repeat) the author's summary, it's bickering and smut and jokes and more bickering.

Plain to See
by Two Ladies of Quality
Action/Adventure; mid-S3
Ethan Rayne hires the AI crew to help him track down an ancient artifact. There's plot and action and hot Wes/Gunn too, but they pretty much had me at 'Ethan'.

Property Law
by Minim Calibre
Humour; Life of the Party

Post-ep. Gunn replaces Wesley's shoes. The story itself is several million times better than my summarising.

Putting Down
by Sheila Perez
Humour; Belonging/Over the Rainbow
It's short, it's hilarious and it has Wes and Gunn chained naked to a ceiling. What's not to love?

Something Like
by Sheila Perez
Romance; Humour; S2

The summary for this one is "in which French poetry is discussed and sex is had." I'd add to that kick-ass dialogue, overt flirting between hot guys and Very!British!Wes. Short and fun.

Son of Small Fry
by James Walkswithwind and Mad Poetess
Humour
Anya/Spike/Xander, Wes/Gunn, Willow/Tara, Angel/Lorne
The sequel to Small Fry, this is just as much fun as the first - this time round it's Willow, Tara, Giles and Wesley who get turned into four-year-olds. There's an angsty, romantic scene with Spike and his two lovers that made me sniffly. And Ethan's in it! Ethan's always great. The characters all got to shine. Four-year-old Tara was so cute she made me melt in a big puddle of goo. Lots of Wes/Gunn sweetness.

Territorial Markings
by Shrift
Humour; Life of the Party
Gunn marks his territory. I love the banter between the guys.

The Ways of Heaven
by Mary Caroline
Season 5
A moment when things might have been different. When you know what's around this corner for Wes and Gunn and Fred this cuts so deep.

We Came, We Sang
by Shrift
Humour; S2 - Redefinition
I can't remember seeing much Wes/Gunn from Gunn's point of view. Which is a shame, because this is fun and hot.

When The Sky Rains Fire
by Two Ladies of Quality
Angst; Rain of Fire

Come on, that last scene with Wes and Gunn practically had a neon subtitle saying "slash fans, start your engines!" This brief coda to the episode is understated and very well written, capturing the despair and fear the gang are feeling. The dialogue is wonderful and the slashiness is very moderate (subtexty thoughts only)

All characters
