Parts 1 and 2 are here.
Part 3
Giles turned his gaze on Spike. “I suppose I should thank you for helping Buffy remain alive,” he said. “Although I’m extremely curious as to why you did it. What is your motivation for such unusual behavior?”
Buffy had turned to face Giles, leaving her back to Spike who once again rested one hand lightly against it.
“When I figure that out, I’ll let you know,” Spike said, eyes briefly flaring yellow. “Maybe. Maybe I’ll just decide it’s none of your business.”

Last submission for today – In advance, thanks for checking out my work and Best Wishes to all our Spuffy friends during these tragic times of Covid-19. Love, Peace and Life Blessings to all of you.
The theme of “benefits” works so well with these two characters – so much pain and suffering with all their sexual dysfunctional relationship to contrast with the spiritual and emotional growth that they brought to each other.
Thanks to everyone involved in this latest Seasonal Spuffy round – wonderful artwork and stories for all the Spuffy lovers to enjoy. Thank You all very much.
I worked on a few pieces trying to use the Frineds With Benefits theme – excellent choice of theme. I will post three of them today and some others for the final Free Day. Hope you like them.

Summary: About to go on the run from Glory, Buffy takes a moment to relax with someone who should have been her enemy. Sometimes, certain enemies definitely had their benefits.
Title: Tutor

Word Count: 28k, complete
Special Thanks: bewilde, Niamh, Behind Blue Eyes for betaing, teragramm for the awesome banner.
Summary: Buffy has a certain set of skills: staking vampires, slaying demons, preventing the apocalypse, and chasing off men after a single night. That last thing could stand being crossed off her list. Fortunately, she knows just the man—err, vamp—to help.

Won’t make much sense without having read Chapter One and Chapter Two. :)

Title: Please, please, please (let me get what I want)
Creator: Double Dutchess
Format: video
WARNING: contains clips from Seeing Red. Also, references to “Spike/Other”.
This is Spike’s very own “pity ditty”, set to a song by The Smiths. (A lovely song, but most importantly, a short one!)
Not related to the theme, but made specifically for this round of Seasonal Spuffy.
Title: Enemies with Benefits (School Hard) banners
Creator: Double Dutchess
Form: banner
Rating: safe for work
My first contribution for today! Three “Enemies with Benefits” banners. The first is a slightly improved version of my banner #10 from the banner contest (you always see the flaws when it’s too late :-) and the second is a blue background version of the same banner. The third is a different banner based on the same idea. I could only submit one of the three to the banner contest and decided on the first one, but I’m curious to hear if you think I made the right choice.

Title: A Guy Can Dream
Author:the_wiggins
Era/season/setting: season 6
Rating: M
Author’s note: I’ve been working on an original (well, Norse-mythology inspired) novel. So I haven’t had much time for fanfic. This weird little story is what happens when I try to shift gears, I guess.
The story was a little rushed and is unbeta’d. Please let me know if you see anything that feels weird or OOC! I’m gonna edit it again before posting to other sites, so all kinds of feedback welcome. :) Oh, and the title’s the best I could think of at the moment, but I’m not really happy with it. So if anyone has any other suggestions, I’m happy to hear them!
Title: Customize your own playmobil Spuffy – a DIY tutorial
Creator: flowspuffy
I have seen regular or customized Funko Pop Spuffy and also customized Lego Spuffy but I haven’t come across Playmobil Spuffy yet. Playmobil is a huge thing for kids here in Germany, about as huge as Lego is. There are some kids who are either Lego-kids or Playmobil-kids but my little one generously plays with both and has the equivalent of a small toy department’s warehouse stored in his room. However, for this tutorial, I only used one Lochaber axe out of his stock and it was given freely to me. I bought the rest of the figurines from various sellers on eBay local. I am sorry to have to admit that at least one figurine and also a kitchen knife were severely harmed during the process. We all know Buffy is a complex character. I needed three different figurines to create a remote likeness.

Hello everyone! A little late, I know, but here I am. As always I have to catch up but how are you? A big hug for you and your family, it’s difficult for many and this, well, they’re icons and it’s distracting me so if you’re having a very bad time I hope this helps to distract you for a while. You do it with me too, all the time you write, all the time you do something, thanks for being there. <3
