Title: Touch
Author: Girlpire
Pairings: Primarily Angel/Spike, includes Angel/various others.
Rating: NC-17 or FRAO
Disclaimer: This story and its characters are based on the Angel series, with which I am not affiliated in any way.
Distribution: Livejournal and AO3 only.
Warnings: All of the sex (some of it in public) written very explicitly, vampire bites, language, mild violence. Also trigger warning for a severely depressed character.

Summary: Angel's been having some trouble controlling his impulses. Good thing Spike is there to make everything worse.
(See also: Through no apparent fault of his own, Angel becomes a sex addict.)

Notes: I began writing this story in 2012 but only recently decided to finish it and publish the ending. I'll update this post as the chapters go public, or you can follow the story on AO3. NSFW banners under the cut.


Chapter One: La-La Land
So Angel went about business as usual, feeling restless and overly sensitive, and tried not to notice how everyone at the office seemed suddenly to smell more like sex than they had before.

Chapter Two: This Isn't a Slumber Party!
"How can you not know? It’s a simple question, Angel: either you feel possessed or you don’t."

[On AO3]


Chapter Three: He's. Mine.
Angel sighed. "Ohhhh," he sang reluctantly, "I wanna dance with somebody. I wanna feel the heat with somebody. Yeeeeah, I wanna dance with somebody. With somebody who... please God, tell me you’ve got enough."

Hiya! Touch is fantastic and has me on the edge of my seat! I'm desperately waiting the acknowledging of Angel's Lieutenant! ;> How have you been? I'm completely confused as to what the fic verse is now, still portaling through my live journal account. I would have left a comment on ao3 but the data fields weren't showing up on my pc, although I could tell it needed an email. Can't wait for chapter 17!

Thanks so much for keeping up with this story.

Okay, this might have gone through twice (or not at all) since I stopped to log in to my LJ account. Hope it goes through at least once!

Hi! It's so cool that you've been reading the story! I don't get nearly as much time to write as I would like to, so the updates aren't exactly coming fast, but it's great to know there's still some interest here.

For me, as far as reading new fic goes, I'm pretty much 100% on AO3. The only times I ever come back to LJ are to update this post, and to copy the text from my other fic posts to move stories over to my AO3 account. I think I'll keep linking my fic on LJ just for organizational purposes, but I probably won't ever post the actual text of new stuff here anymore. If you're not on AO3, I really recommend it! It's free to create an account and it would be great to see some of your fic over there. There's a pretty severe lack of good Spangel (although there are certainly some gems). And it would be a lot easier to leave comments. :)

I do all the rest of my fandoming on Discord. There's a relatively active Buffyverse server that hosts channels for discussion of every season of BtVS and AtS as well as channels to talk about the comics and ships and fanfic and collectibles (figures and t-shirts and other merch). We also do live streams of both shows. There are about a thousand members. If you're on Discord or interested in joining, I can get you an invite. I don't really interact in fannish spaces on other social media because there's lately been a huge trend toward bashing Angel for some reason, and since he's my favorite character I'd like to avoid that as much as possible. Luckily, it's not as big a problem on Discord.

I think I will join ao3 and begin the arduous task of reposting my fic. It will take a while because it's a new site (to me) and I'm an old dog!

I don't really interact at all on fan sites, except to post or read fic, but I'd like to take a look at discord. If you can forward an invite I'll give it a shot.

Thanks!

Awesome! When you start moving your fic, I recommend maybe just posting the first few chapters to begin with and then spacing them out every few days or so, because every time you add a chapter it bumps that story to the top of the search results for those tags, and doing it over a period of time gives people more of an opportunity to see/read it than posting it all at once.

Here's a link to the Buffyverse server on Discord: https://discord.gg/k3nswGTd

The link should expire after seven days, so if you don't get a chance to create an account before that, let me know and I'll get you a new link. It might look a little overwhelming at first, but once you're there I can talk you through it if you need any help. :)
