Snapshots 05
Copyright April 2025

Fandom: Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Season: various, pre-Season 3 through post-series (Buffy), and between Season 1 and 2 (Angel)
Rating: PG
Spoiler(s): basically, both entire series
Genre: drabbles
Overview: Though set in the world of Buffy and Angel, and referencing various Buffy episodes, each of these drabbles is actually for one of my Backstage stories (fic title/link at the beginning of the respective drabble). As such, the drabbles themselves will be largely or wholly meaningless unless you’ve read the story to which each one pertains. If you can live with that, by all means jump on in.

Re: Website question.

You may be thinking of Boca del Infierno, my original fanfic website before I started posting to other, more well-known fic archives. I had a number of links there to other sites and services, but almost all of those are outdated now; in many cases, the sites don’t exist anymore. I still post my stories there, but Archive of Our Own is where I get the most attention now, with LJ and Fanfiction.net trailing.

I do thank you most sincerely for the link; yes, that was the one... yet with your website; *you* control the site's posting; and you do NOT have to kowtow to the views of moderators and/or admins who may or may not be morally corrupt bullies.

Which is why I maintain that website; along with nostalgia, it IS a place where I have total control (unless the free-hosting company just totally goes out of business).

And plus; while admins and moderators on sites tend to be jerks and somewhat bullying people into going along with immoral stuff to the members... well, *your* site is solely owned and maintained *by you yourself*, so you don't have to worry about the staff harassing you into going against your conscience or standards!
By the way, even with the problematic and somewhat dumb stuff on fanfiction.net; (and I've had the misfortune enough to find a LOT of them), fanfiction.net is NOT a moderated site, and your site is your own; the thing is: what the authors write is what shows the contents of the character of the author- you discern that from the contents of their writing, and operating as if in chess tactics: capture the individual and you control, via conversion, the contents of the works.
Thing is; you, by owning your site; are safe from being bullied into kowtowing to the iffy standards of others- and everything on your site reflects the content of your character, unharrassed.
