Just wanted to rec someting to you all.

The fic 'Normal Again' by Richard Bachman [http://www.fanfiction.net/read.php?storyid=784245]

It's an alternate version of the episode, only this time Spike gets the unclean needle of demon poison. It's a wicked fic, that starts out weird and goes to very dark.

I love it. His crazy drug-induced Asylum!Spike is PERFECT. Exactly like what you'd imagine he'd be like in that situation. There's hopeful hints of B/S (cause its Spike's POV most of the time) and references (sometimes more overt than others) to abusive slash. The gradual changes in Spike's personality and the fracturing of his mental state over the course of the fic are damn cool. And sad. And the Asylum-verse!Buffy is perfectly in character too, both the kinder person we know she has the potnentila to be, and yet still the same in many ways. And the other version of Angel/Liam... can't explain it.

Anyway, I liked it a lot. I read it all in one sitting tonight, after someone recced it on CW. It's still a WIP, but very close to the end--probably less than three chapters left, at a max.

frustration

This is so irritating. I keep trying to find ANY 18 and over dance clubs in san jose-- I can't. And I'm three frickin' years from 21. This is frustrating beyond belief. I thought I'd try The Limelight, but they don't answer their phones and I can't tell from their website whether its 18+ or 21+. It says both in different places, but on the same night. This is making me depressed. There's got to be someplace in this stupid city to go... Man, I wish I was one of those cyber-gothic people who go to raves. you know, with the glow-sticks and sutff. I can play with glow-sticks. This really hot 21-year-old tried to pick me up once when I was dancing with glow-sticks (the first and only time since I'd ever bought glow-sticks, actually). I'd like to go to a rave, but I don't know anyone who goes to raves, and its not like they advertise. There's this whole inner-city sub-culture that I don't know how to be a part of. I just want to go to some and dance to very very loud music. Why should it be this hard?!

Well, that's just... neat.

Kind of cheers up my evening, actually. Always liked this fellow.
