Title: Intervention
Rating: PG-13
Summary: Illyria and Eldre Koh stage an intervention. 2,400 words.
A/N: This is my seasonal_spuffy ficlet, posted and written just under the wire, so I apologize if it’s a bit sloppy. This is a comics!fic, but as I’ve only read one issue (the first Billy issue) since #10 (when Spike left), its adherence to comics!canon is liberal at best. I basically took some elements I had heard about from previous issues or knew were in the pipeline (e.g., Illyria) and ran with them.

Title: Hey There, Blondie Bear (Part 5/5)
Rating: PG-13
Summary: Being normal doesn’t include having a vampire for a boyfriend, even one with a soul, but Spike’s not willing to be just her friend anymore. Is “normal” all it’s cracked up to be? Is it worth the price? Begins after issue #10 (which will be released 6/13), which is when Spike will temporarily leave S9 for his own miniseries. 3,000 words. Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4.

A/N: Finally, the end! Thank you so much to everyone who has read and commented and offered encouragement so far. This fic kept growing in unanticipated directions, and the feedback really motivated me to get through the rough patches. Meanwhile, I think I’ve listened to “Hey There, Delilah” more times in the past month and a half than I have combined since 2007…

I’ll be traveling tomorrow and won’t have Wi-Fi until Friday night, so I’ll be delayed in responding to comments, but thank you in advance for any feedback, and I hope you like the ending!

Title: Hey There, Blondie Bear (Part 4/5)
Rating: PG-13
Genre: comics!fic
Summary: Being normal doesn’t include having a vampire for a boyfriend, even one with a soul, but Spike’s not willing to be just her friend anymore. Is “normal” all it’s cracked up to be? Is it worth the price? Begins after issue #10 (which will be released 6/13), which is when Spike will temporarily leave S9 for his own miniseries. Part 1, Part 2, Part 3.
A/N: This section is a little over 5,000 words. Last part will be up later tonight!

( Part 4 )

To anyone searching my LJ today for a "Hey There, Blondie Bear" update, I’m sorry, but it’s not ready yet! I got distracted this weekend by Game of Thrones and some unexpected family obligations. Have some short domestic!Spuffy schmoop instead? It works for either far-in-the-future post-NFA Spuffy or far-in-the-future comics!Spuffy.

Title: Bedtime Stories
Summary: Baby!fic. Pregnancy!fic. DotingDaddy!Spike!fic. Schmoop. Fluff. “Domestic porn.” Call it what you want; it’s one of many random family!Spuffy images in my head, and I felt compelled to turn it into a 660-word vignette.
Rating: PG

She falls asleep much earlier these days than she did a few months ago; more nights than not she’s deep in sleep rather than simply dozing by the time he gets home from bartending. He doesn’t mind, though; it gives him some alone time with his little girl.

Title: Hey There, Blondie Bear (Part 3/5)
Rating: PG-13
Summary: Being normal doesn’t include having a vampire for a boyfriend, even one with a soul, but Spike’s not willing to be just her friend anymore. Is “normal” all it’s cracked up to be? Is it worth the price? Begins after issue #10 (which will be released 6/13), which is when Spike will temporarily leave S9 for his own miniseries. 5,000 words. Part 1 and Part 2.
A/N: Turns out the fic is going to be longer than I last thought, so it will actually be four parts instead of three. Assuming I can tear myself away from A Game of Thrones long enough to write, I'll probably post the last part on Monday.
A/N 2: As I don’t read Angel & Faith, nothing that happened with Harmony there is relevant to this fic. Thanks to Mari for clarifying some details about S8 for me!

Trigger Warning: Teensy bit of self-harm in this section.
A/N: Here's the second part of the Spike-miniseries-inspired fic! I'll have the third and last part up sometime in the near future, definitely before #10 comes out.

My seasonal_spuffy contribution!

Title: Hey There, Blondie Bear (Part 1/5)
Rating: PG-13
Summary: Being normal doesn’t include having a vampire for a boyfriend, even one with a soul, but Spike’s not willing to be just her friend anymore. Is “normal” all it’s cracked up to be? Is it worth the price? Begins after issue #10 (which will be released 6/13), which is when Spike will temporarily leave S9 for his own miniseries. 5,200 words.
A/N: I started writing this exactly a month ago after the Spike miniseries was announced and some articles/interviews insinuating that Spike and Buffy couldn’t be together simply because he’s a vampire greatly annoyed me. As more information has come out, I’ve reconciled to the idea of the miniseries, but writing fic is still how I patch up my abused little Spuffy heart.

This fic will probably be about 15-20K words in total. About half of it’s written so far, and the rest is outlined, so it won’t be a WIP for very long.

Title: Picture Perfect
Summary: After Sunnydale, Buffy wants something to remember Spike by, just in case. Set during the party in Season 9, Issue #1. 4,400 words.
Rated: PG-13
Disclaimer: These characters are not mine; I am making no money, etc.
A/N: Apparently being disgruntled by the comics spurs me to write cause I started this a little over a month ago but didn’t feel very inspired until after #7 came out! Anyway, it takes place during #1, so nothing in #7 affects it, and it’s comics-canon-compliant. For those who don’t read the comics, all but the last 400 or so words could also be applicable to a general post-NFA future, no comics required.

OH MY GOD. JUST READ THE COMIC AND AM HAPPILY FLIPPING A SHIT BECAUSE IT IS PERFECT AND BEAUTIFUL, AND THE LAST TWO PAGES, ALDKFJALKDJFLADJFLAJDFK.

Like, I don't even feel the need to fic this issue because the Spuffy (and the Buffy & Dawn, Buffy & Robin, Nikki & Crowley, Spike & Dowling, EVERYTHING ELSE) already makes me so happy! (Still writing my future!domestic-Spuffy!Andrew-baby-daddy!baby!fic, though- it's just not based around this issue.)

ETA: Although there's definitely a drabble or ficlet begging to be written with Buffy asking, "What did you need to tell me?"

Initial reactions, flailing, and word vomit below the cut:

( FLAIL! )

Title: Denouement
Rating: PG
Summary: Willow’s not the best person to comfort Buffy, but she knows who is. Takes place immediately after issue #4. 4,800 words.

( Read more... )

Title: Denouement
Rating: PG
Summary: Willow’s not the best person to comfort Buffy, but she knows who is. Takes place immediately after issue #4 and actually isn’t precluded by #5. The first line of the fic is from the #4, which was written by Andrew Chambliss.
Word Count: 7,100
Author’s Note: I started this pretentiously titled fic (not pretentiously titled on purpose; I just couldn't think of anything; "Aftermath" and "Solace" seemed too bland) not long after the issue actually came out but struggled with it for a while and was only able to finish it today. The impetus for it was that I was disgruntled with the writers for not having Buffy think of Spike before leaving the warehouse with Willow, and I wanted to flesh out Spike’s reasons for leaving without talking to her because I wasn’t entirely satisfied with his characterization. This is my take on what could have transpired after the issue.
This was also supposed to the first chapter in a much, much, much longer fic; namely, a Spike/Buffy/Dowling love triangle fic. For now, this stands as a one-shot. I have a skeletal plot of the rest of it and still like it, so I may write it some point, but now that #5 is out and it would be thoroughly AU, I make no promises.

ETA: Apparently 7,000 words is too long for LJ to handle. *sigh* Most annoyingly this is in two parts, but it's just one fic. This first part is about 2,300 words.

Title: Her Right Hand
Rating: PG-13 (a little swearing)
Word Count: 4,600
A/N: This is a Buffy/Spike comics!fic inspired by the cover for #8 that was released a few days ago. Be warned, the cover is EXTREMELY spoiler-y (or so Scott Allies claims; personally, I’m hoping he’s a lying, trolling jackass). There isn’t really a summary for this fic except, well, Buffy and Spike reacting to what that cover shows.

ETA: Everything in italics is supposed to be in italics, but the different fonts are not on purpose and don't mean anything; that's just LJ being stupid.

Title: Operation RSFA
Rating: G
Characters: Dawn, Willow, Andrew
Summary: Dawn is devious. Willow and Andrew are her minions. Buffy and Spike are the marks. 900 words.
Setting: Late summer 2004 in England.
Disclaimer: Characters are not mine, they belong to Joss, etc, etc.
A/N: This is a little…strange? I thought of the dialogue while running on the treadmill and couldn’t resist. I also wrote it between 11 PM and 1:00 in the morning, if that tells you anything…

( Dawn looked from one cohort to the other, her face solemn. "Ready to begin?" )

So I can’t tell you what inspired this idea, but I got it a few days ago, and instead of trying to be eloquent or write a ficlet, I’m just going to ramble like in some of those long, ficcy (awesome) Spuffy Tumblr tags:

In their happy post-NFA future, Buffy and Spike like to spar, obviously, and at some point they think up strip sparring, which is basically what it sounds like: every time one of them lands a “killing blow” (like Spike nipping her neck or Buffy poising a plastic stake over his heart), the loser has to remove a piece of clothing- winner’s choice. The game may have developed because Spike was always subconsciously reluctant to give it his all when fighting Buffy and she was exasperated and needed to give him an incentive to beat her. Incentives work quite well for Spike, and he usually ends up winning the first round because he’s super motivated. He almost always makes her remove her shirt, for obvious, jiggling reasons. On the other hand, Buffy always goes for his pants, also for obvious reasons: after all, he still doesn’t wear underwear. That’s usually when the sparring reaches its natural, sexy conclusion, because Buffy can fight only so well when things are just hanging loose and in the open like that. And by that point, Spike’s blows are a lot more like gropes than punches.

It’s their favorite game; way better than Monopoly or kitten poker. After that incident with Giles, Andrew, and the tour group of new slayers, they just have to be careful to keep it in their basement rather than in one of the Council training studios, though. Giles was scarred for life. Strangely, Andrew and the girls didn’t seem to mind…

Title: Propositions
Rating: G
Summary: At the end of Severin's arc (i.e., this is not directly post 9.3 but takes place sometime later in the season), Buffy ponders her track record with men and takes matters into her own hands. 900 words.
A/N: I figured out something to write in reaction to issue #3 after all! Comments on my Thinky Thoughts post inspired me, and I ended up frantically writing this at 1:00 AM and then tidying it up this morning. :)

Title: Long Time Coming (2/2)
Rating: PG-13 (discussions related to sex but no actual sex)
Summary: This fic is a continuation of “Freefall, Part 2,” issue #2 of S9. Part 2 is approximately 3,000 words. Part 1 is here.

Title: Long Time Coming
Rating: PG-13 (discussions related to sex but no actual sex)
Summary: This fic is a continuation of “Freefall, Part 2,” issue #2 of S9. Literally. Buffy’s first line of dialogue is from the issue, which was written by Andrew Chambliss. For those not keeping up with the comics but interested in reading anyway, the issue ends with Buffy encountering a mysterious boy who can somehow turn vampires into dead humans with his touch. Buffy is on the run from the police, who suspect her of being responsible for all the corpses that keep popping up.
This ridiculously long fic, which I started over three weeks ago and which just kept growing, was inspired by

eilowyn when we discussed being frustrated that the comics weren’t addressing what had passed between Buffy and Spike in “Chosen.” I do not presume to claim in any way that I addressed “Chosen” well, but I gave it a shot. I'm not 100% satisfied with it, but I want to get it posted and over with before issue #3 hits the stands in, oh, hours, and I need to get back to my WIP, so here it is, all 9,500 words. *headdesk*
(And yes, I’m aware that the preview pages for #3 make this scenario impossible; I knew from the get-go that my continuation would be wildly AU and indulged in using Severin this way anyway because the circumstances were so deliciously ripe for provoking discussion and H/C.)

EDIT: Ack, my post is too long. SIGH. All right, this is getting split into two parts but only because of LJ's posting limits; the fic is meant to be read in one piece. This part is approximately 6,500 words.

Title: For Keeps
Rating: PG-13; probably a few chapters will be R down the road.
Summary: When unknown demons attack Spike in autumn 2019 and infect him with what seems to be a parasite, all Slayer and Watcher hands are on deck to try to get it out of him. But what if the “parasite” could be something more?
Word Count: 3,500
A/N 1: This is, as you may be able to tell from the summary, an mpreg fic. Spike gets pregnant. If the concept of male pregnancy freaks you out, this is probably not the fic for you.
A/N 2: This is a WIP. I expect it to be a good-sized novella when all is well and done. Sadly, I am quite far from being well and done, and all I have at the moment is Chapter 1 and maybe Chapter 2 later in the week, if I can get my act together. Writing (of any kind; not just this) has been like pulling teeth lately, but I am hopeful that this story at least will take off once I get past the introductory, what-the-hell-is-inside-of-Spike chapters. In any case, this is my first time posting a WIP (in BtVS fandom at least), and my apologies if updates take a while. Please feel free to friend me if mpreg is your cup of tea and you’d like to keep up with the fic.
A/N 3: So not only is this a WIP, this is a WIP that takes place far in the future in my post-NFA verse, which I not at all ironically call the HEA-verse. In this verse Anya and Cordelia were resurrected by the PTB after NFA, the Scoobies moved back to the newly rebuilt (but no longer a Hellmouth) Sunnydale in mid-2005, and they all had children a few years later. The pairings are Buffy/Spike, Xander/Anya, Willow/Oz, Cordelia/Angel, and Dawn/Gunn. A list of fics in this verse is on my fic masterlist if you’re interested, but below the cut is a brief description of original characters and other relevant information that will tell you all you need to know.

Lastly, this is for

snickfic, who wields her great power of seducing people to mpreg with great responsibility. Thank you for the inspiration, Snick.

( Notes about the verse and Chapter 1 )

Title: Worth Waiting For
Summary: She wants to give him the morning after he deserves. Buffy/Spike. Takes place during “Chosen,” starting after her nighttime talk with the First (i.e., this is not a FitB of the fade-to-black). 6,000 words.
Rated: PG-13
A/N: This is for

lutamira, who requested 'Anything Spuffy' almost four months ago when I was requesting prompts. This was supposed to be short and sweet, but as with most things I write, I got wrapped up in Buffy's headspace, and it became very long (but hopefully is still sweet). This was not my original

seasonal_spuffy fic (I'm just posting it on my SS day because I only finished writing it a few days ago, so it seemed appropriate). My original SS fic is a WIP, and I'll be posting the first chapter of that later in the day.
