A Spuffy Autumn in San Francisco.
Snippets of Buffy and Spike’s everyday life, all in short chapters (below 1,000 words), set in a post-S11 world where they didn’t break up, hence the “Alternative Reality” tag.  

Warnings might be updated accordingly as the collection grows, though I don’t foresee big changes.
Rated [R] to err on the safe side because I do foresee the use of some coarse language, courtesy of Spike.
 

Challenge response. 
Prompt: How would things go for Buffy and Spike if their conversation / Spike's speech in "Touched" + Buffy's profession of love in "Chosen" had happened earlier? Give Spike and Buffy a happily ever after that doesn't end in a flamey death. 

Set in early S7 and canon through episode 7x05 "Selfless," which is where this story picks up. It then steers into a different direction, turning into a complete rewrite of S7, though some lines and plot elements will be borrowed from random canon S7 episodes and thrown into the mix.

Missing scene, set in S6 at the end of ep. 6x16 “Hell’s Bells,” possibly replacing the second-to-last scene in Buffy’s living room where she’s talking to Willow and Dawn.
Instead, Buffy stops by Spike’s crypt after failing to locate the runaway groom, and they have a conversation.

A few years into the future, Dawn learns that Buffy & Spike are thinking about ending their relationship and she believes they’d make a big mistake, so she stages a small ‘intervention,’ hoping to help them see that they simply hit a bump in the road and they can overcome this one and many others. Although, the way she goes about it is rather unusual.

Drabble fic with little plot and a good trip down memory lane.

Challenge response. 
Prompt (in short): Buffy experiencing grief and longing. 

Set in Post-Series, after “Chosen” and during the time frame of AtS S5. Since I needed to establish Buffy’s whereabouts, I borrowed the setting of the Scottish castle from S8 of BtVS comics and the concept of the Slayer Organization. This story is set before the events told in the comic series, time-wise, but it’s entirely unrelated to the comics plotline. Warnings explained in the Story Notes.

Story title is a song by Green Day.

Set around mid Season 6 (likely sometime between 6x12 "Doublemeat Palace" and 6x13 "Dead Things"). It's Xmas Eve but Buffy isn't feeling very festive. Sunnydale is hosting a Winter Wonderland fair and Buffy decides to visit it after patrol, hoping to get in the mood for the small gathering that Dawn insisted on having at their place. Before going home she crosses paths with the Guardian of a mysterious Wishing Well…
