There are a couple individual stories from the Guardian Blue series by sarsis that have been recommended here: \"Thanks for the Fox\" and \"Guardian Blue: Season 1\".

Yesterday, Kalmbach added a recommendation for the entire series. This series recommendation brings up a few questions. The main one is: What is the best way to reconcile a series recommendation with separate recommendations for individual stories within that series? Especially when some readers recommend one individual story in the series but not all of them, and others recommend the whole series?

Also, we should provide both FFN and [=AO3=] links for all the entries we keep. And we should pick either the author\'s FFN name or the author\'s [=AO3=] name, and use that one consistently.

Also, the early installments of the series aren\'t shipping fics. The writing leaves their relationship somewhat ambiguous, with nothing inconsistent with a platonic interpretation of their relationship. Later, this changes, and their relationship becomes romantic, although the author doesn\'t describe any of the stories as \"romance\" stories. (The genres listed on FFN are Humor/Hurt/Comfort, Drama/Hurt/Comfort, Adventure/Hurt/Comfort, and Adventure/Friendship.) But I\'m not sure that makes the later installments shipping fics. And the newly added series recommendation lists it as a shipping fic.

So, thoughts? Comments? Suggestions?
