I.
Vamps deftly dispatched,
and yet she itches for more.
Spikey has the cure.

Bot on a mission:
“Vampires of the world, beware!”
(Especially one.)
“Intervention” Spaiku, Part 5: It Came from Another Dimension (5/16)

God of bad home perms
longs for the hellfires of home.
Slayer holds the Key.

I.
Juxtaposition—
Buffy gropes to find the truth;
Spike fondles a lie.
“Intervention” Spaiku, Part 3: Willing Suspension (3/16)
I.
Watcher shakes his gourd,
does arcane novelty dance;
stewardship transferred.
II.
Cougar spirit guides?
Turtlenecks in the desert?!
Visionquests are strange.

A/N: #3 is one of two haiku I’ve previously written for “Intervention.”
“Intervention” Spaiku, Part 1: Intervention (1/16)
Here’s my dish for this Spring’s Spuffy potluck: a heapin’ helpin’ of haiku. (Oh, don’t worry about overeating — you’ll be hungry again in an hour!) I’ll be posting throughout the evening until you’re ready to strangle me midnight so as to space out the spammage a little. Many thanks to enigmaticblues for having us all over again and for being such a gracious hostess. You have a lovely home, dear. Also, gratitude of great magnitude to Mister Beta for his invaluable input and for giving me time to write when there seemed to be none. Thanks as well to rebcake for continued encouragement and the always awesome always_jbj for the beautiful banner.
A Spaiku Intervention

Genre: Haiku
Syllable count: 1275
Rating: PG-13 for robotic naughtitude
Disclaimer: Spike and Buffy belong to M.E. and never to me. (Um, except in dreams. Then, they’re, like, totally mine. I won’t lie.)
A/N: Here are some Spuffycentric Spaiku caps from BtVS, S5, “Intervention.” Sixteen parts.
Feedback is more refreshing than a margarita on Cinco de Mayo. ::hiccup::

Fic – Rest
My posting day. Hurray!
Okay, there’s a poem. ;)
Thanks to enigmatic_blue for the opportunity (see you at Writercon) and my beautiful beta cindergal.
A special thanks to the poetry of Christina Rossetti.
Fic ~ A Touch of Paradise
It’s the 15th here in Australia, so it’s my posting day. I signed up to do art, but the muse decided to play nice, so I have a new fic first and then an art post to follow.
Title: A Touch of Paradise
Author: Always_jbj
Rating: R 18+ (NC-17) [Just to be on the safe side.]
Season: Between Seasons 5 & 6
Summary: Love, happiness and life in general can be hard, and sometimes you make the wrong choices along the way, but sometimes you get the chance to do things right afterall.
Thank you, as always, to the wonderful Slaymesoftly for betaing. And to my lovely cheer squad, Tales, Selene and Sue for all your support.
And a big thank you, of course, to the lovely enigmatic_blue for running this fabulous community.
*Please Note* Due to server issues I probably won’t be online again until after the 19th.

A Poem From Spike’s POV + Art
Because this month is National Poetry Month and the theme for this season is poetry, I couldn’t resist. In the cut is an Elegy that I think Spike might have written about Buffy sometime after The Gift. And because I’m a bit rusty with my poetry writing, I added some art to at least make it visually appealing. LOL!
Passo Doble
Well… today is my day and even though it is bloody early I want to post these before sleep and work make it very late on the 13th for everyone to read. I am starting with a simple drabble and have four other short fic’s this time.
First I would like to thank enigmatic_blue for hosting this community, this great resource for those of us never willing to give up on this pair of star crossed lovers. Also thanks to the amazingly creative alwaysjbj for the lovely artwork this season. I can’t wait to read the stories already posted (I always wait till my date is done) and enjoy the art and games as well. Thank you all.

he’ll ever be anything
but death on two legs.
