O, since everyone's shown a great interest in my two most recent LJ icons, here's what I have to say:
::cry!:: I didn't make them. :(
The "tortured_soul/lick_me" icon was made by![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jacklemmon. If you go to the community ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
buffy_icons, you'll find it in one of the recent posts. I love the people there; they make great icons for all different ships and characters. Just found them recently.
The second icon, that yummy "pull the sheet down" pic you're looking at now... that I found when directed to this site (Don't Taunt The Fear Demon) indirectly by someone on LJ. It's a great site with tons of wonderful icons. It even has a whole naked Spike section!
Unfortunately I lost the LJ name of the person who makes those icons & that site after she told me that I could take the icons. If anyone else knows/remembers, tell tell!
The "abomination" icon that I'm also using, with the Lilo & Stitch quote, is one I made. Some day I'm going to get a website (haha ha) and use the space to upload all my LJ icons for people to steal.
Edited to Add:
Fixed the icon site link. Turns out I didn't actually type in the url. :sheepish::

two unusual fics
Just found an unusual Buffyfic to reccomend.
I love explorations of walk-on characters, or shorts that explore the nature of the townspeople of Sunnydale themselves.
So here's two short rec's for you.
1. Aurora, by HonorH
::Before Dawn, there was the Key, and where the Key was, so was the Brotherhood of Dagon. What was she to them? Awarded an Honorable Mention in the Summer/Fall 2002 Halo Awards.::
I really liked this. It's a character piece for the final monk, who dies at Buffy's feet in season 5.
And the real kicker...
2. Alison by liliaeth
::Spike has to face the consequences of his actions in Smashed::
I loved this shortfic. A very very emotional piece on the unknown consequences of one's actions on people we don't think about, but whom we affect. Though it's not about Spike, in its indirect characterization of him it illustrates the difference between soul and souless, and somewhat brings to mind the alley conversation in Dead Things, even though this was written before that episode aired. Highly reccomended.

B/S cd....
Well, I finally got my ass in gear and finished the packaging & mailing stuff. At this very moment there's seven small packs by my mailbox waiting for tomorrow's postman. I finally hunted down the address list I'd lost, sans the final addy from the final person, who I think wasn't even sent out.
They're all nice, with the song list in the front, and a paper attachement. One of the CDs is in a purple shade instead of the original brown colors, but I don't know who gets that one. Think of it as a lottery. ;)
