Hello, seasonal_spuffy!! It’s so great to be here for another round! Thank you, enigmaticblues, for setting us all up again – I can’t wait to see everyone else’s stuff.

I’ve got one (reasonably) long fic for everyone today, with possibly something extra later if I can wrangle it into shape in time… So here goes!

Gonna be the Master of LA, I reckon.  Continue Reading

Final Chapter of WTIHM

This entry is part 9 of 9 in the series When the Ice Has Melted

And here it is – the final chapter. My apologies to readers of the prequel who may have been expecting a lot of sex at some point. That wasn’t what this fic was about. It’s possible I’ll revisit this AU Season V and get Spike and Buffy back into bed, but it’s not a priority for any of us right now. :)  Continue Reading

Chapter Seven of WTIHM

This entry is part 7 of 9 in the series When the Ice Has Melted

Gah! I did it again! I shouldn’t try this while in a hurry. Trying this chapter again…

Now that I’ve straightened out where Ch. six went… Moving right along. I hope to get them all up now, but I have to leave in 1/2 and hour, so it may or may not happen. If not, I’ll be back in a few hours and finish it off then. Moving along, Buffy and Spike head for a Scooby meeting.  Continue Reading

Fic: The Hero of the Piece, 1/2

The Hero of the Piece

By Barb C

Disclaimers: The usual. All belongs to Joss and Mutant Enemy, and naught to me.
Rating: R
Pairing: Buffy/Spike
Synopsis: Where the hell was he? Come to that, who the hell was he?
Author’s notes: This story was written for the Fall 2009 round of seasonal_spuffy. The story takes place in the same universe as “Raising In the Sun,” “Necessary Evils,” and “A Parliament of Monsters.” It’s set in the year 2017 in the Barbverse timeline, and has spoilers for previous works in the series. Enormous thanks to betas rainkatt, shipperx, deborahc, brutti_ma_buoni, typographer, slaymesoftly, and kehf, without whose invaluable help this would be a far poorer story, and to jen_nsync_landl, green_maia, Gwyn, and ladyofthelog for last minute once-overs. Any remaining deficiencies are my own. As always, thanks to enigmaticblues for getting the band back together!  Continue Reading
