Genfic:
Summertime Blues by Selanak (PG)
Ten things Connor did during the summer. Set between seasons 3 and 4.
Sitting on his bed, holding the
letter his father wrote, he smells Angelus’s traces there as
well, and wonders whether this is the last trick of the demon:
intermingling his scent with his father’s, so Connor can’t
wish either away.
Creature of Subtlety and Grace by Romany (PG)
Snippet from a fic in progress. Our father(s).
Dad comes and sits next to him.
“I never wanted this for you, Connor, you know?” He turns,
looks at him and Connor feels bared and open.
“I can’t talk about it,” he says. But he knows.
“That’s the problem with Reilly men,” dad says, looking away. “We never do.”
The Haunting, Hunted Kind by Selena (PG-13)
Connor & Darla. A ghost story.
"Dru," she said finally, remembering that her companion might be insane but possessed some useful gifts, "what is he?"
"The ghost of Christmas yet to come,
Grandmother," Dru replied, a smile breaking out of her tear-streaked
face, and she clapped her hands.
Dead Things by Kangieko (Hard R)
Post NFA, Connor goes clubbing. Ish.
It is one month to the day that ashes
filled the air (an orphan already?) and he does not remember the night.
It does not matter.
(when he wakes up in the morning, she's already cold)
Weighs Nothing: 5 Lies Connor’s Father Told Him by Kita (PG-13)
Five fathers, five drabbles.
“The little prince lives happily ever after.”
There For You by Entrenous (PG)
By his father’s grave. With his father.
Connor looked up, raindrops beaded on
his eyelashes. His dark too-new suit was spattered with wet at the
shoulders. He gave Angel a strange smile. "But there's no one to kill.
No one to save." His eyes returned to the hole in the ground. "No one
to punish."
Five Families Connor Was Not Magically Squeezed Into After His Real Vampire Dad Slit His Throat
by Annakovsky (PG)
AtS/Arrested Development, AtS/BtVS, AtS/Supernatural, AtS/The OC, AtS/Harry Potter.
Really, the title alone...
Ante Praevisa Merita by Stoney (Hard R)
How do you make a child kill their father and think it's in the name of the Lord?
"Do you know that no matter what it is you do, God cannot love you?"
A pause. "Yes."
Holtz continued splitting logs for their fire. "And why is that?"
"Because I am the child of demons. I am made of His antithesis. God despises sin, and I am sin incarnate."
Holtz looked up and smiled slowly. "Precisely. Go on ahead and wash up in the stream. We'll eat once I'm finished here."
Connor nodded and stopped stacking the large rocks that made a wall in front of their cave and left to cleanse himself.
Like New Times, in Jasmineverse &
Reasons, post NFA. (Both PG)
Two shorts, same link.
Connor stares at the hole where half
of Angel's upper arm used to be. He looks grossed out but says, "So
what, do you like, take your jacket off when you fight dragons? So you
don't damage the leather? I mean, that thing's in pretty good
condition, except for the blood. No bites out of that. Are you like, 'I
will slay you, good sir, but not in my good jacket'?"
May Day by Voleuse (R)
Just post-Origin, Spring is like a perhaps hand.
There's playing baseball on lazy
afternoons, and wandering through outdoor malls holding Tracy's hand,
and a million things he's done under the sun.
He thinks he likes these memories
better, but then he remembers how the moon shone as he leaped, rooftop
to rooftop, beside his father. Both of them laughing, despite being
chased by a cadre of vampires, because they knew they would win.
North Northwest by Mer (PG-13)
Offscreen conversations that slide effortlessly into canon. Wesley & Connor, in the Jasmineverse, after Magic Bullet.
"Connor, I don't know why the blood --" he couldn't quite say, Cordelia's -- "didn't work on you, but she's --"
"Killing people," Connor interrupted placidly.
"This doesn't give you the slightest cause for unease?"
"Why?" Connor shot back. "It runs in the family. My father ate people, and you treat him like the Second Coming."
Untitled Riley and Connor Snippet by Call me Sandy (G)
Eager to please, friendly and polite.
And only occasionally prone to taunting his elders. It's easy to forget
the used to be crazy part, the other reason Riley got this job. Dated a
slayer, earned a Masters in Psychology, so they give him the miracle
kid to protect and serve.
Untitled Connor Story by Alex (R)
In two parts (part 2 contains slash)
Connor’s best friend is Mason, and they’ve been friends as far back as he can remember.
“Honey, Connor’s still waiting.”
“Connor? Who’s Connor? We don’t know any Connor!”
Mason’s mom sighed.
“No, Mason. The reason
you’ve not got any decent college offers is entirely due to
laziness. Don’t even think about pleading insanity.”
As One Mourneth For An Only Son by Aervir (PG)
Fifteen prayers Connor may have said.
He carries her out of the church like
a tired child who cries during mass; but she’s cold and still, no
sound escaping her, and father-mother-child is a game he never quite
learned how to play.
Who Doesn't Like Ducklings? by Entrenous (G)
Angel tries.
There was no one around on campus for
the most part, which was probably good, since his friends weren't
around to witness his dad dropping in through a vent in the basement
laundry room, while Connor shrieked like a girl and dropped his Tide
With Bleach Alternative all over the cement floor before going into a
fighting stance.
Going Back to Cali. by Call me Sandy (PG)
Buffy has to pretend to be Connor's girlfriend in order to save the world. You can read it as pre-ship, if you squint.
"Why can't you just be my friend, or
like, cousin? You're sort of my cousin. Actually, no, you're not
related to me at all." Connor shifted but didn't throw her off. He was
polite and took direction well without being mouthy; excellent
qualities in a young man, Buffy thought. And he often seemed pretty
young. He said, "Maybe you just want to see Stanford."
Family Album by Mireille (G)
Alt. title: How to make Kita cry like a little bitch. Short, sweet, and perfect.
Connor only has his fucked-up
memories to testify to Steven Holtz ever existing; and there are
pictures of Connor Reilly: school pictures and Polaroids from Christmas
mornings and newspaper clippings from when the debate team won the
state tournament his junior year, and his mom had sent copies of the
story to everyone they'd ever met. There's proof he's real.
That's what makes it creepy.
Three Tries by Like a Deuce (PG)
Wesley writes to Connor. Post-Origin.
I remember everything. So, I trust,
do you. This makes us secret sharers, of a sort. Well. I shall keep
mine as long as you choose to keep yours.
**
Baby Connor:
Snippet from A Million Miles Away-verse by Brat Queen (G)
OH MY HEART.
"Hi," Connor called back down. He sat
up on the tree branch, resting his hands in front of him. "I'm playing
the part where there's the ship and the boys and then the boys are on
the ship and then there's flying and then there's Captain Hook and you
have to be the crocodile again okay, Daddy?"
Normal Little Boys by Ladycat (G)
OH MY *HEART*.
"The Destroyer wants mocha ice cream, please."
**
Angel/Connor:
All stories housed on Slashing the Angel.
This link will open in a new window. All stories contain incest to
varying degrees. Some may contain non-con on the part of one or both
parties. Please heed the warnings of each story.
**
Spike/Connor:
Blame it on the Tequila by Nevernever (PG-13)
&
Not at All According to Plan by Nevernever (PG-13)
Off the cuff schmoop that is also funny and hot as hell.
“I don’t think meeting
the much older man will soften anything. If your other Dad is anything
like Angel it will make him get out his shotgun. And I don’t
think either of us are ready for the awkward conversation about why the
bullet doesn’t kill me.”
Exercises in Avoiding Literary Contrivances by Fod (NC-17)
The best fanfic is smart, sexy, and always well written. This is all three.
Connor figured if they kept crossing
things off the list, they'd eventually narrow it down to the one
possibility. Time-traveling AU where he was a cabin boy, crossed off.
Future AU where he was a clone, crossed off. Alternate reality where he
was into girls, crossed off. It was a long list, though.
Share Alike by Ladycat (R)
Secrets kept.
A hand is still thrust into his face,
and Spike takes it. Connor’s palms are thick with
calluses—not just weapons, though. There’s a bump on the
second finger of his right hand that Spike knows better than
everything.
“We’re quite a family, aren’t we?”
First Kisses Drabble by Darla's Mom (PG-13)
"I remember a lot of things."
The smile came back to the kid's face with a new dirty-minded edge to it that made it hard to resist a grin of his own.
147 by Fod (Hard R)
Swift and powerful, like a punch.
After the 147th time that Connor asked him, Angel finally gave in.
Connor grinned so wide it hurt; he couldn't help it. "I love you, Dad," he said.
Raven by Ladycat (NC-17)
Out of sequence of canon, hot hot porn, viciously accurate characterization.
He likes this type, pretty with the dirt ground into their skin like dye, perfumed with copper and fear.
All Through The Night by Kita (NC-17)
Set in the summer between AtS S3 and S4, and BtVS S6 and S7. Also
contains Connor/Fred in a convergence of the psychopathic woobies.
“Never said I didn’t like
to,” Spike’s fists wrap around the headboard. It is wooden,
decayed, it would splinter easily into stakes. “Pay attention.
Said I can’t.”
“Why?” Connor strips out of his jeans, and tosses them onto the floor.
“Because it hurts,” Spike says.
“Oh.” He settles between
Spike’s knees, rubs the blood on his hands into soft, secret
skin. “Good.”
Untitled Drabble by Fod (R)
Connor fucks like he fights, precise and relentless.
Untited Drabble by Entrenous (PG-13)
There's always that weird moment after, when Spike gets up and pulls
his jeans and t-shirt back on before digging around for his smokes.
Untitled Connor Incest Ficathon Entry by Mer (NC-17)
I think Mer was the first to do this pairing. I thank her every. day.
Spike slicked a fresh lot of lube directly onto Connor’s skin.
Angelus wouldn’t have bothered. He was not Angelus.
One of them
had to remember that.
Untitled Character Piece by Ladycat (R)
Connor, through Spike’s eyes. Symmetry and poetry.
Connor comes awake as he’s attended, eyes wide, vulnerable mouth
trembling between a smile of greeting and a gasp of wanting. Torn and
twisted, this little boy, and Spike loves him for it. Loves him more
for the light that dawns underneath too-long lashes that sweep with a
butterfly-wing’s devastation against his cheek.
Angels and Insects by Lynne (NC-17)
Angel would do anything to protect his son, but his efforts have some
unintended consquences, for both Connor and Spike. This story also
contains Angel/Connor and Angel/Spike/Connor.
“You’re missin’ the
point, kid. You live as long as Angel and me, you get around to doing
everything. Or, everyone. Girls, boys, slayers, robots… between
the two of us, there’s nothin’ we haven’t done.”
“Huh.” Connor stared at
him through narrowed lids, and Spike suddenly wished he hadn’t
led the conversation down this road.
“So, have you and Angel ever…?”
Balls.
“Think that’s enough Twenty Questions for one night.”
“Oh, my GOD! You totally have!”
Prometheus Unbound by Lynne (R)
Sequel to Angels and Insects. Also contains Angel/Spike. No Angel/Connor in this story.
Connor tumbled beneath him, falling
like feathers, landing like smiles. He smelled of animal skins and old
bones, things tough and hard; yet he was everywhere valiant and
vulnerable. Wide open eyes, wide open legs. He felt like family, and
when Spike sank into him, it was like coming home—to a place he
knew somehow had been waiting for him, for more than a hundred years.
Foundling by Tabaqui (NC-17)
Broken, after the fall.
Dragged him back to the lair he and Blue were sharing, in the smoking
pit that was L.A. Didn't eat him, 'cause he smelled like belladonna and
rue and Angel, and Spike spent the rest of the night crouched over his
twitching, fever-wracked body. Just breathing.
Ragdoll by Tabaqui (Hard R)
Sequel to Foundling
“Beautiful boy, fucking headcase. Doesn’t work
that way, you don’t get to pick out the parts you don’t
like and sew in clockwork,” Spike says.
At least,
Connor thinks that’s what Spike is saying. Spike’s
always saying something and he’s learned to pick out the pits and
leave the plums since they walked out of L A.
Second Hand by Kita (Hard R)
Post-NFA. Beware the Jabberwock. Spike has a job to do.
Spike watches as something slithers
behind his eyes (blue, his eyes are blue. Darla's eyes were blue, Spike
thinks). Rattles on tails and bright colors that don't belong: a
warning, a mark. There's a tremor in Spike's spine that used to mean
*Slayer*. He has to plant his feet hard not to take a step back.
Then Connor blinks, and says, "It's Angel, isn't it?"
And when he opens his eyes again, he's just a boy.
Untitled by Alex (R)
Post NFA. Family traditions.
“I already knew,” said Connor. “I guess I was just hoping.”
“Time for you to do more than hope. Time for you to step into your daddy’s shoes.”
“My dad’s an engineer.”
“Shut up, little angel. You can joke on the way.”
Walls by Lynne (R)
Post-NFA. Angel as patron, and vouyer. Also contains Spike/Angel.
On the fourth night, the kid got the
jump on him. Which was really fucking weird, because no one ever got
the jump on Spike unless she had tits and was carrying a stake.
"You know, if you wanted to buy me a drink, all you had to do was ask," the kid yelled over the music.
Spike could only nod in reply, neck pressed as it was between the wall and the boy’s forearm.
Imitation of Life by Nihilistbear (R)
Spike/Connor but not in an actual sex way
Shuffle-
A guy with white hair and black leather sits next to him on the couch
in Angel’s office. Angel doesn’t seem to notice their
presence.
“There’s so much you have to know, little brother,” he says. “So much to learn.”
Field Trip by Doyle (PG)
Connor, in S5. Can be read as gen.
It was times like this that he wished the labs downstairs stocked
Doximal. Angelus, even pseudoAngelus, would be better at dealing with
these two. Sure, he didn't want to eat them - well, not Connor - but
maybe with a small enough dose he could just gnaw on them a little.
Just until they behaved.
Crime and Punishment by Doyle (PG)
Sequel to Field Trip.
"Angel and Spike got into a he-man bitch-fight over the shanshu. Some
Cup of Endless Torture thing, turned out to be a fake. Then Calvin and
Hobbes hotwired Angel's car, took it to Mexico, got involved with a
demon diamond robbery and crashed the car."
Wrapped in A by Ladycat (R)
Post series. Sweet, domestic bliss. With vampires.
“I want to fuck you,” Connor murmured in his ear.
It didn’t really go with the
twang that still hadn’t let up in his damned chest, but Spike was
flexible. “Here?”
“Yeah. Right here.”
Grinning, Spike scored a line along
Connor’s lower lip with his teeth. “Good thing I came
prepared then, innit?”
*Hell in a Concrete Jungle by Lynne (PG)
Drabble fic, post NFA.
**
Wesley/Connor:
Cicatrix by Herself (NC-17)
Wesley has no heart for small talk.
The kid raised his chin, his smile at once encouraging and entirely
without warmth.
"I won’t hurt you," Wes said.
The kid shrugged.
Those Who Favor Fire by Wesley's Girl (R)
AU for the end of “Rain of Fire/Apocalypse Nowish.”
Reacting more quickly than a human
could have, he grabbed Wesley and pushed him into the nearest doorway,
flush up against the glass. The flames exploded at their feet,
spreading out into an evaporating ripple like dropping a stone into
water.
Connor realized that he was pressed up against Wesley. Wesley was warm
and he smelled good, and before Connor could even finish that thought
in his head he was already hard.
Stillness Between Moments by Lar (NC-17)
Nothing is as it seems, nothing is as you’d expect.
“Time to hunt,” Connor
says and he sits up, reaches out to cup the back of Wesley’s
neck, kisses him roughly. Connor is teeth and tongue, sharp nips and
long lapping tastes of Wesley’s mouth. His eyes spark with a
darkness and a hunger as he draws back, smile still in place.
“Then time to fuck.”
“Of course,” Wesley says coolly. “Everything in its place.”
Castaways by Joy (Hard R)
Lessons.
“I get your trust. Then I fuck
you from behind.” The voice at his throat was stinging on the
sunburn, small red pinches. “That’s how I get in the
water.”
**
Gunn/Connor:
And If You Save Yourself by Call me Sandy (R)
Hee!
“This is exactly how I pictured my sophomore year in college.”
“Shut up,” Gunn said. He
patted Connor’s thigh and felt him tense up. Gunn smiled and
leaned closer. “Once you remembered, did you really think
it’d be a smooth ride ever again?”
Connor shifted and Gunn’s hand moved higher up. Connor smiled and said, “I get called stupid all the time.”
**
Xander/Connor:
A Little Bit Louder and A Little Bit Worse by Allyndra (PG-13)
Post series pre-slash with spot on characterization, humor, and just the right touch of hot sweet goodness.
"There was a prophecy and a mystical
whatsit. I really don't understand it, but I'm not going to complain."
He seemed ridiculously easy going to be the fruit of Angel's loins.
"I'm Connor, by the way."
After The Heroes Fall by Abbie (R)
Post-NFA. There are still heroes left.
Xander stood up, stepped over
Connor's prone body and onto the floor, then started pacing. "I think
you're cute. This means you must be a demon. Original demon magnet
here. Butt-monkey to the universe! Why? Why does this always have to
happen to me?"
"Wait--you think I'm cute?" Connor
sat on the edge of the bed, his hands at his side, as if either to push
himself off, or about to sit on them, depending on which way he wiggled.
**
Oz/Connor:
The Post-Finals Tradition by Mireille (R)
A couple of months ago, Connor had been thinking he was too normal for Oz.
By the end of February, Connor had
figured out that he was going to get a B in Chem unless he completely
fucked up; that he was probably bisexual; that he had a thing for his
roommate that wasn't going away; and that if freshman year didn't end
soon, taking his Intro to Humanities requirement with it, he was
probably going to have to set something on fire. Weirdly, it was the B
that was freaking him out most.
**
Sam Winchester/Connor (X/O with Supernatural):
Testing Untested Belief by Lar (R)
Before there was Jess, there was Connor.
After Connor, during Connor really, Sam dreams of angels.
Of Comfort No Man Speak by Musesfool (R)
Family fucks you up.
"You don't know the half of it."
Sam laughs, because what kind of
fucked up family could this kid possibly have that stacks up against
John Winchester and his vengeance-obsessed demon-hunting? But he can't
say anything about that. Even drunk, he knows he has to keep his mouth
shut.
Instead he says, "Let's play some pool."
Not Fade Away by Kassie (R)
I think Kassie was the first one to do this pairing.
“Where are you from?”
Connor runs a hand through his floppy hair, twists around in his seat
so that he’s facing Sam.
“Why?” They aren’t friends. This conversation would be strange even if Connor wasn’t plainly a freak.
**
Buffy/Connor:
Untitled by Marenfic (NC-17)
Angsty smutty delicious goodness.
Connor tells her it's his job to help
her now, says it's what his father would want him to do and it makes
Buffy choke on laughter that tastes like bile. It's clear to her that
Connor doesn't know who his father is. . . was. . . or what the man
would want. There's no doubt in her mind that every single one of them
would insist that Connor stay far, far away from Buffy and everything
she represents.
Walk Like Men by TKP (G)
The first meeting. Can be read as gen.
"I have this whole . . . past, things
I've done, demon parents, but it’s not who I am. I’m a man.
I don't want to kill you, tonight, ever. I just want to have coffee
with you."
New York Blooms by Entrenous (PG-13)
Two superheroes meet in a bar.
Tonight Buffy is Joan, and Connor is Steven.
Dry Spells Hard Times in Bad Lands by Call me Sandy (R)
Callmesandy writes the best dialogue since Joss, bar none.
"Do you have, like, a mode of speaking besides sarcasm and ordering people around?" He sat on the bed.
She pulled out his desk chair and sat
down. She was actually smiling and not smirking when she looked over at
him. "Sorry. I'm just taking everything in, and in a life of total
weirdness, you and your I'm the unique special only-iest child of two
vampires sending emails out of the blue and also playing football by
the way actually make the top ten of weird things. Which is hard. I
went to high school on a Hellmouth."
"I grew up in Hell. In one version," he said. "And I play baseball, too."
Who By Accident by Call me Sandy (R)
Told you so.
"Yes. And, you know, we have
experiences in common, like you said. And I think if we just, um, set a
rule, maybe. Like no talking about Angel. Not ever, but say, not a half
hour before dinner. For a while."
"Like food before swimming?" Buffy
stood up so they were even closer. "I think you get used to it. All my
relationships have been sort of weird if you look at them right."
"You're a slayer who dated a vampire. He took you to prom."
"Two vampires, actually. I dated Spike, too."
"After the robot thing? Wow. So you
have to really twist around to think your relationships are weird, huh?
Like an acrobat flexible to look at it."
Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show by Like A Deuce
Post NFA, pre-shippy humor and adventure.
He brushed the hair from his eyes and gave Buffy a look. "You're a vampire slayer, and you're afraid of a coyote?"
"I knew a vengeance demon who was
afraid of bunnies," Buffy shot back. "And no," she said, a little
petulance in her voice. "I'm not afraid. They're just ugly."
"You probably wouldn't see him before him ate you."
"Ate me?"
"Well, not unless you provoked him."
*Further Vagrancy by Call me Sandy (PG-13)
Post Chosen/NFA, no comics canon. Shippy, quippy adventure.
"I don't want any room," Buffy says.
She wrenches the exit vent grill from the wall with a grimace and puts
it to the side. "I know I'm very complain-y Buffy, but it seems like
there are way better things we could be doing right now."
"You're not complaining that much," he says. "You've totally complained a lot more at other times."
*Death Becomes Her by Marenfic (NC-17)
Forbidden fantasies. Dark and darker.
She fucks Connor on top of freshly dug graves, the smell of damp dirt
filling her nostrils as the sounds of his boy grunts fill her ears.
**
Dawn/Connor:
Les Cousins Dangereux by Annakovsky (NC-17)
Picks up in the Five Universes fic, but with incest. Sort of incest.
Hot, sad, and ironically enough, achingly real. Post-BtVS canon, no
Origin.
They leave Buffy a note, taped to the
ping-pong table, which explains almost nothing. What would they say? We
found out that we're both fictional, and we've been having really taboo
sex, so we can't handle staying here right now, but we'll probably be
back before school starts?
