It's over on Twisting The Hellmouth, so I have to wait until I get home to give you folks a URL, but I didn't want to wait to give the recommendation. This is a "Buffy" YAHF story, in fact a spin-off of a different YAHF, but it's not your usual Halloween after-effects story. Harmony: The Adventures of an Average, Everyday Supergoddess is the title. When Cordy and the other Cordettes dress up as superheroes for that one fateful Halloween, slightly dim Harmony makes a mistake and dresses up as a nominal villain -- the Enchantress from Marvel comics. And when Amora's looks, powers, skills, and memories stay with her after Halloween... well, things are not going to stay the same in Sunnydale.
This is turning into an incredible piece of work; the early chapters make you really feel for a Harmony who seems to be mildly retarded and only tolerated by Cordelia because she's a cheerleader and a good follower; and the most recent two chapters are just freakin' spectacular. This is not "Harmony the Super-villain", btw, at least not yet and it shows no signs that it's likely to be. It's got to be one of the best "after Halloween" fics I've encountered so far. Give it a try.

I intend to be a freak for the rest of my life, and I shall baffle you with cabbages and rhinoceroses in the kitchen and incessant quotations from Now We Are Six through the mouthpiece of Lord Snooty's giant poisoned electric head. So theeeeeere....
