That suggests a wider shutdown or removal of old content. ([reddit.com](https://www.reddit.com/r/neocities/comments/1rje31o/rip_to_angelfire_and_a_reminder_to_leave_your/?utm_source=openai))  \n- Sometimes, URLs of fanfic pages might have changed over time or been moved, making archival harder.\n\n---\n\n## \ud83d\udc4d What You Can Do Next\n\nHere are a few suggestions in case you want to try further:\n\n1. **Use the Wayback Machine directly**  \n   Try manually looking at different snapshots of the folder: `angelfire.com/scifi/sevensrealm/fanfic/` to see if `bundle.html` shows up in contexts like indexes or linked content.\n\n2. **Search for related text or filenames**  \n   Sometimes content gets preserved but under slightly altered names. Searching for keywords from the page (if you remember any) or using search engines with fragments of text from the fic might yield something.\n\n3. **Check fanfic archive communities**  \n   There are fan-run archives and forums of people who save old Angelfire sites, especially sci-fi/fandom ones. You could try reposting requests with what you remember\u2014title, author, content snippets\u2014on places like Fanlore, r/DeletedFanfiction, or other fandom history groups.\n\n4. **Look in static HTML mirrors**  \n   Some individuals or groups mirror large swaths of Angelfire or Geocities websites. It\u2019s possible that someone has already mirrored that page.\n\n---\n\nIf you want, I can try a deeper dive\u2014including crawling the Wayback Machine by date, checking archived lists, or scraping for text snippets\u2014to see if *any* part of the page shows up. Do you want me to do that for you?"

([angelfire.com](https://www.angelfire.com/scifi/sevensrealm/fanfic/bundle.html?utm_source=openai))  \n- The archive includes the full summary, character notes, context (where it fits in the series timeline), and a large chunk of the actual story content. ([angelfire.com](https://www.angelfire.com/scifi/sevensrealm/fanfic/bundle.html?utm_source=openai))  \n- It appears the text is intact, including major plot points and narrative segments. \n\n---\n\n## \u26a0\ufe0f Limitations / What\u2019s Missing\n\n- I did **not** locate multiple snapshots over different years, so it's unclear whether all updates or all earlier versions are preserved.  \n- It\u2019s possible parts of the original layout, images, styles, or formatting have either partially loaded or not survived depending on how Wayback Machine archived them.  \n- There\u2019s no guarantee some embedded media or scripts (if there were any) will still function.\n\n---\n\n## \u2705 What is Restored (from what I saw)\n\n- The title, author note, summary, and contextual setup including characters like Sarah Boone, Lili Marquette, Le\u2019er, Ba\u2019ad, etc. are readable. ([angelfire.com](https://www.angelfire.com/scifi/sevensrealm/fanfic/bundle.html?utm_source=openai))  \n- The main storyline (starting from Washington D.C., involvement with the Taelon portal project, etc.) is present.

Here\u2019s what turned up, plus a few leads and tips that might help you dig up more:\n\n---\n\n## \ud83d\udd0d What *was* found\n\n- The story *\u201cBundle of Joy\u201d* by **Earthboy** is still viewable at its original Angelfire URL. ([angelfire.com](https://www.angelfire.com/scifi/sevensrealm/fanfic/bundle.html?utm_source=openai))  \n- Another story, *\u201cAl\u2019ith\u201d*, credited to Earthboy / Seven, is also archived at Angelfire. ([angelfire.com](https://www.angelfire.com/scifi/sevensrealm/fanfic/alith.html?utm_source=openai))  \n- The *Spherites\u2019 Fanfiction Archive* is a listing that includes Earthboy as one of the authors in the Earth: Final Conflict fandom. It suggests there used to be more of their stories in that archive. ([fanlore.org](https://fanlore.org/wiki/Spherites%27_Fanfiction_Archive?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\n## \u26a0 What *wasn't* found\n\n- No working full Wayback Machine snapshot beyond those two specific stories was located in this search.\n- Many Angelfire sub-pages appear to have broken links or missing content, which is common for old domains/sites like this.\n\n---\n\n## \ud83d\udd27 Helpful tips to try finding more\n\nHere are some strategies you can use to hunt down more stories by Earthboy or Seven\u2019s Realm:\n\n1. **Use the Wayback Machine\u2019s URL patterns.**  \n   Many of Earthboy\u2019s stories use this structure:  \n   `https://www.angelfire.com/scifi/sevensrealm/fanfic/[storyname].html`  \n   Try replacing `[storyname]` with titles like those listed in *Bundle of Joy*\u2019s author note: *Last Dance*, *Girls' Night Out*, *Tell It Like It Is*, etc., and see if any snapshots were taken.\n\n2. **Search the Spherites\u2019 Archive via Wayback or mirror sites.**  \n   The Spherites\u2019 Archive (which listed Earthboy) likely had more stories linked. If you can find an archived version of the Spherites\u2019 Archive, follow those links and see which ones still resolve or are archived. ([fanlore.org](https://fanlore.org/wiki/Spherites%27_Fanfiction_Archive?utm_source=openai))\n\n3. **Use web-archives with partial cache like archive.org, web.archive.org, or archive.today.**  \n   Even if a page isn't fully archived, the text may still show up in CPU-cache or FTP backups.\n\n4. **Check fan sites or forums.**  \n   Fandom communities like those around *Earth: Final Conflict* may have mirrored or stored off-site copies of Earthboy\u2019s works. Fanlore, for instance, mentions Earthboy within the Spherites\u2019 Archive. ([fanlore.org](https://fanlore.org/wiki/Spherites%27_Fanfiction_Archive?utm_source=openai))\n\n5. **Reach out to preservation communities.**  \n   Groups dedicated to preserving bygone web content (e.g. GeoCities rescue projects) may have copies. If you provide a list of known story names, someone might recognize or have archived them.\n\n---\n\nIf you like, I can try generating a **list of likely titles** from Earthboy\u2019s bibliography (from author notes / archives), and check for archived versions one by one \u2014 that might turn up something new. Would you prefer I do that?"

For example:  \n   `angelfire.com/scifi/sevensrealm/fanfic/hostage1.html`  \n   or `hostage_part1.html` etc.\n\n2. **Search the Spherites\u2019 Archive snapshots**  \n   This archive included Earthboy as a listed author. Archived versions or mirror sites may include some of these stories. ([fanlore.org](https://fanlore.org/wiki/Spherites%27_Fanfiction_Archive?utm_source=openai))\n\n3. **GeoCities Rescue / Fan-Archive Projects**  \n   Some early fanfiction was saved outside of Angelfire by fan communities or archive projects. It may have been mirrored elsewhere.\n\n4. **Search by character names or unique phrases**  \n   Sometimes text from the stories (dialogue, character names, unique phrases) is indexed even if full story URLs are lost. Googling in quotes may bring up mirrored excerpts.\n\n5. **Check forums, fan sites, or LiveJournal/Xanga/etc.**  \n   Back in the 1990s/early 2000s many fanfic authors reposted or summarized their works there.\n\n---\n\nIf you want, I can attempt to pull up some of the Wayback Machine snapshots for those specific stories (like *Hostage* Part 1, *Ma\u2019el: Thinker...*, etc.) and see if any text or partial versions are saved. Would you prefer I try with five of those first?"

It confirms that many stories by Earthboy used to be hosted there. ([fanlore.org](https://fanlore.org/wiki/Spherites%27_Fanfiction_Archive?utm_source=openai))  \n- Fanlore\u2019s entry also explains that much of the early Earth: Final Conflict fanfiction\u2014from first & second seasons\u2014was lost due to site outages (Philosophy Sphere, etc.). ([fanlore.org](https://fanlore.org/wiki/Spherites%27_Fanfiction_Archive?utm_source=openai))  \n- There\u2019s no archive or cached copy found for any of the 5 specific titles in the major archive services I checked (Wayback Machine, GeoCities archives).  \n\n---\n\n## \ud83d\udcc2 Possible reasons for absence\n\n- The original files likely never got archived properly before the site went offline.  \n- They may have been deleted or removed during moderation or site transitions.  \n- If they were hosted in directories that weren't crawled or saved by archive bots, the content might simply have never been captured.\n\n---\n\n## \ud83d\udd04 What you *can* try next\n\nHere are some additional avenues that might yield results:\n\n1. **Contact archived site caretakers**  \n   Fanlore notes that the founder or archivist \u201cdayblaze\u201d might still be contactable. They may have local backups or know someone who does. ([fanlore.org](https://fanlore.org/wiki/Spherites%27_Fanfiction_Archive?utm_source=openai))\n\n2. **Search fan message boards & old mailing lists**  \n   Forums like The Philosophy Sphere, Earth Final Conflict Central, or EFC-specific mailing lists might have discussions or text excerpts. Someone might have copy-pasted parts of the stories.\n\n3. **Try language or foreign archives**  \n   *Earth: Final Conflict* had international fan communities. German or other non-English archives may have mirrored or translated versions. (The Fanlore entry lists the Deutsche Taelon Bibliothek.) ([fanlore.org](https://fanlore.org/wiki/Earth%3A_Final_Conflict?utm_source=openai))\n\n4. **Check private collections or fandom Discords / Facebook groups**  \n   Sometimes long-time fans have backups of older fics, or exchanged them via email. Posting a request in those spaces might turn something up.\n\n5. **Set up archive.org or GeoCities Rescue watches**  \n   If there are still URLs or site paths you know (or can guess) for those stories, you might try to see if there are future captures or partial snapshots. Occasionally content resurfaces in forgotten caches.\n\n---\n\nIf you like, I could try sketching a list of *people/fandom communities* to contact (with links) who specialize in EFC preservation\u2014might help speed up your search. Would you prefer that?"
