Summary: It's been one year since Spike died in Sunnydale. All Buffy wants to do is visit the Sunnydale crater, pay her respects to Spike on the anniversary of his death, and finally say goodbye. Because the past year? It's been the longest and loneliest of Buffy's entire life and she needs some kind of closure. What exactly is she supposed to think when she climbs down into the crater to make a toast to Spike's memory and a mangled Spike steps out of the shadows to greet her? Just what in the hell is going on? Written for the first ever Sunnydale After Dark challenge.

Summary: Or, Buffy and Spike accept an undercover mission from Sunnydale's resident loan shark on his new demon cruise line. If they succeed, Buffy'll get enough money to stop the leaking financial boat that is her life and Spike'll have his kitten debts cleared. 

They probably should have asked more questions about that cover story, though. 

Starts in 6x08, "Tabula Rasa" and goes wildly off script from there. 
 
Banner designed by the incomparable Dusty, who does ask all the right questions, like, "What did you name the boat?"

Summary: When Buffy is paralyzed during a routine patrol, her whole life falls apart. Making matters worse is the fact that Joyce can't afford to hire the full time care that Buffy now needs. Enter Spike, who is recently chipped and being targeted by the same group of demons who harmed Buffy. Joyce views it as an answer to her prayers when Spike accepts her offer of caring for Buffy in exchange for a safe place to live. Buffy, on the other hand, takes a little lot of convincing. This was written during Season Four when it was airing. I hope you enjoy this cleaned-up and rewritten version of WAM. :)

Summary: So, if you have read the comics, you know that a HUGE thing happened after Buffy and Spike came home from being prisoners in a Government Internment Camp. Once everything settled down, Buffy FINALLY told Spike that she loved him. It was the most beautiful moment in comic book history. And then ... the new season comic came out and Spike and Buffy had broken up. It went from I love you to ... no longer together. With zero explanation as to why. And I can't accept that. I had to know why. I HAD to write why. And I had to FIX IT.

Alive and routinely patrolling with an increasingly close Spike, who is just too distractingly fun and not-unattractive and little-sisters’-life-saving for her to push him away all that much anymore.
What happens when they’re forced to take care of a rescued child who can’t be left to anyone else?

She's a sophomore in college but she lives at home, she’s the neighborhood sweetheart, and loves cherry lollipops, bubblegum, making milkshakes at the diner, and dancing her god-fearing heart out. But what happens when a total dreamboat greaser from across the pond comes a-rumblin’ on his motorcycle to Sunnydale? He turns her pearl-clutching town upside down, that’s what!

Summary: The girl in question is Buffy, of course. But what would have happened if Spike had blown off Angel's search for the Goran head and gone after Buffy instead? What if their reunion uncovered a corrupted Angel's evil agenda?
Upon breaking out of a dungeon, incompetent thief Andrew Wells helps Spike and Buffy, recently reunited and cursed by Angel. Angel's curse prevents the pair from ever being in each other's presence except at twilight, so they enlist Andrew in a dangerous plot to return to LA, overthrow Angel and break his evil enchantment.
Inspired by the 1985 feature film Ladyhawke and the novelization by Joan D Vinge.
Begins with the bar fight scene between Angel and Spike in The Girl in Question and veers sharply into my own little AU where Angel really does want to join the Order of the Black Thorn and he is unapologetically and lavishly evil.
