Looking for a Willow & Tara Fic Thread

[Kajun]

*waves* Hi from lurkersville. I was looking for The Sidestep Chronicles. I think that's what it was called? It seems to have been taken offline. Please tell me I'm wrong?

Here you go (don't use the links to ezboard in the first post of the thread, the fic is here):
The Sidestep Chronicle & Second Chronicle
and: Sidestep - Third Chronicle

Hi, sorry to bother but I am looking for a really old fic. Not at all sure of the name but it is set in an AU and is about Willow as a Princess and Tara as a regular citizen, only witchy... they fall in love and run away together at some point? Terrible explanation I know. but I loved this one and cannot for the life of me find it. Any help would be greatly appreciated

[Laragh]

I'm not sure that it's any of these, but here's the princess-themed fics I could find:

The Lesbian Fairy Tale
Magic Calling
Captive
Their Ever After
Queen Of Thieves
Clashing Swords
Princess Willow and the Frog
Princess Tara and the Dragon

[lackynmbr988]

Thank you

[Lady Callie]

I'm looking for future fics where, for whatever reason, Willow and Tara have broken up (season six ish?), and are now getting back together. I'm looking at that theme for a rec challenge coming up in a few weeks.

[TwiceBlessedWiccan]

Hey all, I'm looking for this story I read a few years ago where an old witch-y girlfriend of Tara's comes back and takes her memories so she doesn't remember Willow and is in love with her instead and Will has to convince Tara that they are the ones who are in love, it was so great and I'd love to read it again, please and thank you

[Finey_McFine]

I'm sending you a PM now.

[mmmh-Hot-Sauce]

Would you mind sending a PM my way too? Thanks

[ImTheOtherOne]

Ok Idk if I seen this story here or not but here it go's. I just remember Willow woke up one day and she had a male member lol and Tara and her was trying to find out why.. Can you please help

[ImTheOtherOne]

Can I also get a pm to that fic sounds good!!

[Missocki]

I'm trying to find a fic called S.C.O.O.B.I.E.S.
It's a willow/tara version of D.E.B.S.
anybody know where I can find it?

[Willow_Friendly]

I don't think it's on the board anymore but i know where it is though it's one of my favorites i'll send you a PM for you

[MochaVamp]

I'm looking for two stories by the same author. The stories cover the same events, but one is from Willow's point of view and the other by Tara. The stories cover Willow and Tara figuring out they are more than friends. Willow coaches a gymnastics team, and I believe Tara works in a museum. One scene involves Tara getting jealous of Oz, a fellow coach when he dunks Willow in a pool. A recurring theme Is Willow groping Tara in her sleep. Thank you in advance.

[zampsa19752001]

What you are looking for are Portal (Tara's POV) & Tightwire (Willow's POV)... They were taken down on author request... PM your email address so I can send them to you...

[vampyregurl73]

Ok, looking for a little help here.

I was poking around in the finished archive, and clicked on "It Has Always Been You" by Intricate Mirage and when I do get this message:

You are not authorised to read this forum.

Has it been removed? Is the link broken? Because you know I want to read it because I've been told I can't...

[blade13]

Kinda wondering about that myself. I've had that pop up on several stories I've tried to read. Couldn't be more specific 'cause I've been looking at a lot of titles... what can I say, I like to read.

[beyondtrouble]

Hi kittens Does anyone have Lisa Countryman's full Unexpected Consequences novel in PDF that they might be willing to email to me? I'm reading it for the bazillinth time and it would be so much easier! I have Milestones (with the draft chapter) already in PDF for anyone that might need/want it.

PM me to let me know!

That fic shouldn’t have been listed in the author index, I've corrected it. Graphic NC17 content with Willow and/or Tara (in this case Willow) with another person is completely against FAQ. Someone probably has it and can PM you a copy.

Getting that message means it is no longer available here for any number of reasons including pulled via an author's request. Sorry.

[AceVonWildfire]

Kajun:

I received that same message on a story that, I'm fairly certain, did not violate any rules... and I sincerely doubt the author requested it's removal as her other story is still up/available.

The story is Eternity Again by AmberGoddess.

False Euphoria is still up as mentioned.

Explanation please?

It didn't ring a bell but I discovered that yes, that fic broke FAQ (in bold):

2. What is on topic?
All fics should focus on W/T for a majority of the fic. Angst is very welcome but the end result should be the continuation of the W/T couple, which logically means Willow and Tara are alive and together in the end. Any creative effort featuring Willow or Tara with any other character in any romantic/sexual situation is Off Topic and does not belong on the board. Characters are to be fictional, this means no celebrities or actual people. Post "Seeing Red" events can be incorporated in fic, but no
K ennedy, not ever, not for good or bad.

Author's have requested a single story be removed for personal reasons. Read this thread and you will know what I mean. I don't have all the answers to why this or that is gone. Just assume that if a fic is no longer available, there is a reason and that it may not have anything at all to do with FAQ.

Now that's just plain, fucking, stupid.

Some of the best Willow/Tara stories are those that dealt with the infamous "Wish" storyline, and said story *CANNOT* be done without dealing with K ennedy in some fashion.

Whoever wrote that rule should be drawn and quartered... or perhaps eviscerated slowly with a blunt wooden spoon... or...

*wanders off still dreaming up ways to torture the inventor of said moronic rule*...

Wow, that's kind of..........HARSH.

I totally get what you are saying and partly agree. But, seeing as how neither you nor I pay the bills around this place, we don't get to make the rules.

You really could have and probably SHOULD have phrased your displeasure differently. Or, sent a pm instead.

Xita, this forum’s founder and owner created the rules. This is her house, she pays the bills, and has every right to decide what is or isn’t allowed. If you don’t like her rules you are free to leave. These kinds of comments are not welcome here.

[Katharyn]

It's not simply harsh. It's rude to and dismissive of someone who took the time and effort from their personal life to answer a question in more detail than was strictly necessary.

The FAQ is what it is and always has been since that particular factor became an issue. You may have lurked for a long time AVW but your joining date indicates that you may not have been here back in 2001/2002. I don't know, but as someone who was here on the board during the storm of hurt that erupted I have some context on why this is relevant and why this rule exists.

I'm in favour of maintaining that rule too because we've SEEN what happens. One person 'just does this' and then another person says 'well if she can do that I can do this.' Fact. It has and does happen. Since moderators cannot read every chapter of every story there has to be clear rules (even if I didn't agree with the content reasons then from an efficiency standpoint then it's essential.) Otherwise before you know it Willow's in threesomes with Hermione and Spongebob. (Okay, I may be stretching the point on that one, but not by that much.)

I've said it many, many times. There's not free speech on the internet and certainly not in someone else's house where they pay the bills to keep this place going and ad free (very important). The rules, were, in fact there when these 99% of these stories were written and posted. Prior to that highlighted element there were already others about Willow being 100% gay (back then people wanted to send her back to boystown in fic) or the rule about Oz. Authors could see (and have always been encouraged to read them) any time they wanted if they cared to look. That they failed to do so was their problem, not the board founder's and moderators. What was different was that for quite some time the board was unmoderated and a lot of things slipped through. But the rules were always there.

Thankfully the board is now moderated (which is a near miracle on a board for a ship that was brutally wasted 10 years ago). I don't many people here would disagree that they come here for Tara and Willow and appreciate the job that the mods do in making that happen. Some people, like Grimm, may not agree with every rule but they respect them. And they certainly don't call those who made them (and pay for the board you enjoy) 'moronic'. They don't demand explanations as if there was nothing better to do than reply to you. They don't demand that exactly what they personally want has to exist.

Simply because you have a different point of view.

As I writer I've said this in a few threads. I encourage anyone to write and to tell whatever story they need to tell. I;'m fine with that. And yes, that includes all sorts of things that are off topic here. Write away, all power to you and I am sure some of it is fantastic work. But simply because it's written does not mean there's a god-given right to post it here. There are plenty of places to post any combination of fan-fic that anyone wants to. There's no need for it to be here if some off-topic content is desired. But people want to because they want to have their cake and eat it. They want the fantastic interaction and feedback that TKB and Pens offers, but then they also want to go off topic.

Well, no.

If someone wants to post here then they need to write within the rules.

Xita's house. Xita's cash. Xita's rules.

Anyone else wants to create a board on similar lines for whatever... great! But not here.

And frankly, AVW, you owe Kajun and Xita an apology. One devotes what she can spare of her free time to making sure Pens (especially) is moderated and the other is paying the bills so this place even still exists 10 years after the show died without being covered with adverts and spam. You should try looking for the other T/W boards that used to exist... oh, no, they're all gone.

I suggest you go look at the Lesbian Cliche thread and some of the others where this sort of question has previously arisen and get a sense of the history of the place and the people that you're denigrating.

[Laragh]

Just wanted to add my thanks to Katharyn for so eloquently speaking, as she always does.

AceVonWildfire - as a relative newbie to this board and even newbie-er mod (an honour I don't take lightly), the rules this board has in place are there for reasons, and has made this place one of the only safe havens for many a Willow/Tara fan, including myself. It's not our responsibility to make sure someone reads the rules before they join. We also don't need to rehash this as it's been done many times before. May I also point you to this part of the FAQ:

• If you have questions about the moderation of the board, please get in touch with one of the moderators. (Contact information for all the mods is here.) Do not post about it on the board. When a moderator edits or deletes a post, we always try to message or mail the poster to explain why. So please make sure you have a current and valid email address in your profile or keep an eye on your private message inbox on the board.

In future you can PM one of us if you feel strongly enough, but the line on this won't change.

[faolan228]

Okay, hopping in before class to put in my two cents before class, as I've been getting email alerts for this thread since I woke up.

AVW, these rules have been in place for the past decade or so, and you should've read them before signing up. They're at the top of the forums. And if you didn't like them, you didn't have to sign up. Don't resort to insults and rudeness because you didn't read, or didn't like the rules that have been in place for, as I've said, a decade.

There are often times I question the rules here on the KB, but if you're gonna party at someone's house, you gotta follow their rules. The Willow and Tara fanfic archive has many fics, including ones that largely include K-slayer, and often times they are by the members of the very board you're complaining about. They know the rules well enough to post elsewhere, still within reach of their fellow kittens if they so choose. You just need to look. I'll be happy to link you to the archive if you prove incapable of finding it yourself.

There's also a reccomendation thread somewhere here on the forums for off-topic fics that don't exactly match up to the board rules. You're a big kid and I'm sure you'll know how to look for it, but yet again, I'm sure if you ask nicely someone will link you.

I hope this gets through to you, and in a few months we can get along swimmingly and look back at the time where you made an ass of yourself fondly. I've been there.
