For a silly, fun read, check out Intervention with the Vampire (http://littera-abactor.livejournal.com/4397.html) by littera_abactor. It is gen, around season 2-3ish.
The rest of the stuff I have is a bit darker.
There is Happy Ever After (http://www.goldenmaze.com/happyeverafter.htm) by Rheanna. Which is a sort of dark, short AU fairytale? Sort of? It is difficult to explain. It is pretty brilliant though. I remember this being the first Angel fic I really feel in love with. And I just reread the story and found I still enjoy it. :)
Really, anything by Rheanna because she has seriously engrossing stories. In the Waiting (http://www.goldenmaze.com/inthewaiting.htm) is also excellent. And it has outsider perspective!
Rheanna has two fics co-authored with Yahtzee. Both are long and satisfying.
If you haven't read Yahtzee (http://www.thechicagoloop.net/yahtzee/chivalry/) yet, go now. She is my favorite Buffyverse author. I particularly love As Time Goes By (http://www.thechicagoloop.net/yahtzee/chivalry/chivfic/TimeGoesIntro.htm) (and not just because Casablanca is one of my two favorite movies ever) and The Uninvited Guest (http://www.thechicagoloop.net/yahtzee/chivalry/chivfic/UninvitedIntro.htm).
And, finally, the fic that is my favorite out of all the Buffyverse fics I've read. It is honestly one of my favorite fics ever. Another Life (http://archive.shriftweb.org/archive/5/anotherlife.html) by inamorata. It is an extremely dark, very AU Angel/Cordy fic. It takes the Birthday AU and goes AU off of that. Which sounds crazy but really works. I tend to avoid prostitution stories and so almost missed this one, but decided to give it a shot since it came so highly recommended. And I'm SO glad I gave it a chance since I would have missed what is seriously incredible storytelling. I don't know how you feel about Angel/Cordy, dark fic, or these themes but if you don't mind them than this is a great (longish) read.
Hopefully you can find something in here that you enjoy. Have fun reading. :)
