Something Blue, Something More, is one of my favorite fics. I love Sane/Good guy Dru and Opel didn't write Angel as a jerk. I find it very uncommon to see Riely writen as a jerk(which he so should be) and Angel as not. I used to not like Angel, then I watched AtS. I mean he's like a vampire version of Batman and though Angel bashing stories can be good, I love it when he is not a jerk-face. But alas I will end my rambling that could give Willow a run for her money. Thanks again for all the fics.

Yes, a definite favorite. I'm actually not a huge Angel fan. Although, I do have to say that I do only like Angel when he's not written as he was in canon. Either as Angelus, being the villain or written like Kari Mouke as an example that I can actually like Angel. I'm a huge fan of bashing Angel and sometimes getting comeuppance and a real wake-up call to Scoobs, or those who need to shed those rose-colored glasses. Your so welcome! If I think of more I'll let you know. I too love the child coming back fics or at least older kids fics too! I completely understand about the Willow rambles, I too, share that trait !

Okay so I loved all of your recs and THANK YOU!!!
I really love these types of stories so... I am writing my own. I would love to post it and share it with people so If anyone is interested please let me know by PM. Or since it is related to this thread maybe here.(I don't know if that is alowed so let me know). I aim to have it complete before I post it and by the way things are going it will be a long one. I have been working on it for two weeks, have roughly 16,000 words, and from the way things are shaping up in my head I've decided that I haven't even brushed the suface of the plot yet. I would also like someone to beta it. Preferably someone who won't mind large chunks of the story at a time as that is how I usually write. This is the first fic I have seriously writen--not just like one one chapter and forgot about it. If everything runs smoothly, I aim to have this fic done by the end of next month at the latest.

And thank you to all who read this and to anyone who responds!!!
