Hitting My Kinks Hard

Two stories are currently hitting my major kink: S/X that reads like gen-fic. Yes, it's fair to say that my kinks are vanilla. These stories aren't.

The Assistant, Part 14, by witling. Spike/Xander with Wesley POV and Angelus. It ties my stomach up in knots and takes away my words. I used to be able to leave coherent feedback. If you read S/X or even well written fic and you aren't reading this...I'm guessing you're just busy. Previous parts: here.

"The Spike and Xander Love Story Told By Everyone Else Cause They're Too Stupid To Figure It Out" (not the real title, I just think that's funny) by ladycat777: Part One and Part Two. I asked her for UST, she gave me brilliance. Buffy voice! Willow voice! And, oh my god, latent Spillow love that hasn't reared its head since spikedluv stopped writing Spike/Willow. The dialogue! And the interaction! And the...UST-y-ness. (Now you're seeing why I haven't written in a while.)

I've read a lot of great stuff lately (notably entrenous88's Xander/Andrew - Xandrew! Amazing Xandrew!) but those have had me jaw-dropped.
