The Works of Christopher Angel

Pulled this choice quote from the latest rec thread:

Oddly enough, I found brainchild's works to be the most infuriating pieces of fiction I've ever had the misfortune to read.
I was heartily disgusted with them by the second chapter, and forced my way to the 5th or 6th in most cases before giving up in a fit of loathing.
It's not that they're poorly written, they just wanted to make me smack him/her, if that makes any sense.

Im struck with a particular fanfic that I want to re-read but can not manage to remember the author or title well enough for a search to turn it up.
The memorable scene involves sailor moon being chased by amorous tuxedo mask across town, and through a newspaper office only to corner her in an elevator.

Well, it looks like Chris Jones' biannual domain lapse has come due again -- and just when he started updating again too. (Ah, the irony....) Site's still live, though -- map 204.177.232.33 to www.furinkan.net in your HOSTS file if you want to see his latest update. (Gabriel ch. 5, circa. three weeks ago)
So, in the interest of not having a sluggish relic of fanfiction yore redirect to some godforsaken squatter portal or Hot! Barely! Legal! Teens!, can anyone dig up an email address for him that is not @furinkan.net?
Danke.

A Harry Potter fic which I can't remeber the title or the author name I read it pretty recently.
Synopsis:
Harry goes to Europe using a glamour as a disguise and Black as an alias. Leaving a trail of dead death eaters behind. most of whom mange to kill themselves in truly bizarre accidents such as porting in and appearing outside a balcony 10+ stories up while Harry is on balcony. Porting in front of a train in station. Harry's alais is thought to be an gent who has been around a long time. Meanwhile Harry is traveling around Europe totally clueless as to what's happening leaving a trail of havoc behind himself.

A new series, even - though with sidewise ties to Hopelessly Lost. Enter, the Iron Age!

the Six Impossible Things Before Breakfast award is one of my longest-running half-serious jokes, it's given to authors of fanfic that just makes my jaw drop for taking an idea I expect only to loathe with the burning passion of a thousand firey suns, something I read for the express purpose of heckling, and making a story that not only doesn't suck, but is actually GOOD. It's been so long since I gave out #1 and #2 that I can't even remember the stories themselves beyond that one was a Power Rangers fic of all things, the other original-flavor Evangelion, and the graphic was lost three or four hard drive failiures ago, but that doesn't detract at all from my pleasure at awarding #3 to EmySabath for her story Time to Spare, which is a post-HBP Harry Potter time travel fic, in which Harry is sent back to the Marauders' days in Hogwarts, with Draco malfoy his only companion and reluctant ally.
The writing is good. The characterization is beleivable. There ar no asinine prank wars. There is neither smug "I know what's coming before it happens" timeline tweaking, nor angsty wailing about changing the futre and how it could cause a paradox. It explains the events of HBP with beleivable motivations that let the author do her own thing with the characters anyway.
EmySabath, I salute you.

There are a lot, actually, but the one that comes to mind fastest is Relatively Absent, by Mark Shurtleff. And a couple other things by him as well which were left to twist in the wind.
I'd also love to see Jack and Jillian Staik come back to the Net and finish Our Wedding Day, which is Part 4 of their epic series The Tales of Ranma and Ranko.
And of course it goes without saying that I fervently wish for Eric Hallstrom to take up writing Ranma and Akane -- A Love Story once more.
So... what dead fics would you like to see resurrected?

Which appears to have successfully reduced/distilled all my pet fanfic peeves( and favorites) into trite, insulting one-liners.
Edit: I realize that more than a few people in this forum might have already seen some version of this but, hey, its new to me.
