A/N:  I’m excited to be posting!  This is a little bit strange, but I hope everyone likes it.

Wicked – 1/3

This entry is part 1 of 3 in the series Wicked

Author’s Note: Yay! It’s my posting day!

This story is different—albeit not by a huge stretch—from other stories I’ve written. If you have a problem with vamp!Buffy, please do not proceed. Even if you’ve trusted me in the past with vamp!Buffy, if this it not your thing, you’ll want to avoid this. She’s not a true monster (i.e, not Porphyria from Sang et Ivoire—a story that is seven years old this year!), but she is soulless and she does kill.

Also? This story is FANON. If you have a problem with FANON stories, skip this. And if you have a problem with my liberally borrowing lines from episodes and including them in a totally FANON story, well… yeah, skip this. This ain’t the story for you.

My EXTREME thanks to my betas for all the help you provided on this story: dusty273, spikeslovebite, dampersnspoons, enigmaticblues, therealmccoy1, just_sue, effulgent_girl, angelic_amy, ghostgirl13, and coquinespike.

This round has been great so far. Thanks to the wonderful enigmaticblues for all her hard work, and all the contributors of the excellent work and art we’ve enjoyed. I can’t wait to see what comes next.

Fic: Ars Poetica (6/6)

This entry is part 6 of 6 in the series Ars Poetica

I juuust finished this, so my apologies for any typos I might have missed, though I don’t think there should be many. I hope you enjoyed my offering!

Title: Ars Poetica
Medium: Fiction
Author: Lirazel (penny_lane_42)
Timeline: “Becoming Part II” – post-“Not Fade Away.” Canon all through BtVS; ignores the comics and “The Girl in Question.”
Rating: R
Installment: Part six of six.
Disclaimer: The world and characters of the Buffyverse do not belong to me. Neither do any of the poems.
Poetry: The poems featured in this chapter are “Elegy XX: To His Mistress Going to Bed” by John Donne (my favorite poet), a few lines of “may i feel said he” by e.e. cummings (you should look up the rest of it; it’s pretty fun), and “Fate slew Him but He did not drop” by Emily Dickinson.
A/N: This first section is the closest I’ve ever really come to writing a sex scene. It’s still not terribly explicit, but I pushed myself further than I’ve gone before. I’m kind of nervous, so let me know what you think.
Summary: The story of her life with Spike, Buffy realizes, is written in poetry, not prose.

Fic: Ars Poetica (4/6)

This entry is part 4 of 6 in the series Ars Poetica

Title: Ars Poetica
Medium: Fiction
Author: Lirazel (penny_lane_42)
Timeline: “Becoming Part II” – post-“Not Fade Away.” Canon all through BtVS; ignores the comics and “The Girl in Question.”
Rating: PG-13 here, R overall
Installment: Part four of six.
Disclaimer: The world and characters of the Buffyverse do not belong to me. Neither do any of the poems.
Poetry: The poems featured in this chapter are “The Kill” by Carl Phillips and Sonnet XXXIX by Elizabeth Barrett Browning.
A/N:  The poetry book I mention in the first section is Helen Vendler’s Poems Poets Poetry.  Most books about poetry either suck all of the joy and beauty out of the whole experience or don’t actually tell you anything useful.  This is by far the best book of its kind I’ve ever seen, and I heartily recommend it for anyone who wants to further their own poetic education.  Vendler, a Harvard professor, released the book in 1997, so I don’t feel like it’s a stretch that Buffy might have used it in her poetry class in college; it’s one of the most revered text for such classes.
Summary: The story of her life with Spike, Buffy realizes, is written in poetry, not prose.

Fic: Letter to Me

My day for seasonal_spuffy!

Unfortunately, I overloaded myself on commitments this month, and didn’t get done nearly the amount of writing I wanted to for this round. (Not to mention that I went and renewed my love affair with a different pairing.) Still, I did manage to finish this, though I completely fail at the poetry. Still, it was inspired by a song… ^^;;

Many thanks to enigmaticblues for hosting another round!

Title: Letter to Me
Author: randi (randi2204)

Rating: PG
Warnings: Angst, mostly. Mention of past character death; see notes below.
Notes: Set mostly post-Chosen, and completely discounting pretty much anything in the comic-verse.
Summary: The letter really was a time capsule, just like it said in the note… It just wasn’t really what Buffy expected.

Disclaimer: It all belongs to Joss and Mutant Enemy, not me.  *big sigh*

A Spuffy Fic, set during Season 2.

This is the other half for my posting-day.

As I said earlier, I have never done this sort of challenge before, and for those who don’t know me, until I got into Spuffy fandom about 3 years ago, I had never, ever written anything.

I would again, like to thank  enigmaticblues, for all her hard work in this community … and to the rest of you who have (and will be posting) … Thank you.

Story Name –  Corrected Vision

Rating – G
Word count – 4,800
Spoliers – Up to and including Season 2 episode – “I Only Have Eyes For You”
The story starts during this episode, and are my thoughts on what may have happened had spike been a witness to Buffy and Angel’s meeting.

Disclaimer – I don’t own anything (although like the rest of you, would love to have Spike! … no profit is being made.

Finally – Huge and mega thanks to  mabel_marsters  for coping with me, and being a super Beta … Thanks, you are the best.
