Fanfic – The Reflecting Pool, Chapter 1 of 2

The Reflecting Pool
By: The Deadly Hook
Disclaimer: BtVS and AtS characters not mine. I play with them, whisper to them, move them around. They don’t seem to mind.
Rating: PG, I think.
Summary: Post-series, Buffy revisits the Slayer guide figure from “Intervention,” only in the Brave New World of multiple Slayers, the spiritual forces have… changed.
Thanks: To itmustbetuesday  for the superb community.
Notes: I’m going to go out on a limb and utterly lock myself into two parts for this story. The second, concluding part should be up later today.  Continue Reading

Fic: The Spotlight, Chapter 2 of 2

My most grovelly apologies for the delay; my beta rabid1st insisted on improving this chapter, for which I am most grateful. I’d like to thank itmustbetuesday for permitting me to post late, and especially the lovely missmurchison for graciously allowing me to post on her day. Thanks also to fitofpique, head f*** over at wrisomifu, and everyone who commented on Chapter 1, for their encouragement.

A couple of things I forgot to mention yesterday, as I was struggling to post. Aside from the obvious, this is an AU in that AI remained AI; they didn’t join Wolfram & Hart. Also, this fic should carry a schmoop warning.

I posted the first part right before the big crash yesterday. It’s here, if you missed it. And now the conclusion of the Fic that Broke Livejournal.

Fic: The Spotlight, Chapter 1 of 2

Hello! My contribution today is a short story in two parts. Chapter 2 will be posted some time tonight, LiveJournal allowing. No WIPs from me this time. (Incidentally, if you caught my WIP Tekubi during the last S_S rounds, it is once again in progress; you can find all chapters of Tekubi in my memories here.)

FIC: Four Kisses Spike and Buffy Never Shared (and One They Did)

Today is my day at seasonal_spuffy, and a big thanks to itmustbetuesday for this great community. I have fic to offer, a series of five ficlets to be exact. I wanted to play off the “around the world” theme, which I’ve managed to do somewhat. I’ve also always wanted to do a “5 Things” fic, which this is as well. I hope you enjoy it.

Title: Four Kisses Spike and Buffy Never Shared (and One They Did)
Author: Cindy
Rating: PG13
Note: Decidedly AU, except for the last one :-) And all individual titles are taken from song titles, which are acknowledged at the end of the fic.  Continue Reading

Fic: Kindle in Us the Fire (1/3)

Greetings, all. I have some fic to share for my posting day. I’ll be posting the first part now and the rest of it later in the day. This fic is a series of three moments from the life of Buffy and Spike, connected thematically. All take place post-NFA.

The quotes at the beginning of each chapter (and at the end of the last) are taken from Edna St. Vincent Millay’s “Renascence”, which I highly recommend.

I hope you enjoy it!

Fic: Marked

Marked
By spicklething
Rating: PG13

The first part is a little bit of a cheat. Part of it did see the light of day (though I think all of three people saw it) the first time two years ago during a Spuffy kinkathon, but it was never finished. I originally wrote this for liliaeth  who wanted Spike and Dawn get kidnapped, Buffy to the rescue, and Xander as a good guy. Hopefully this fits the bill. I finally finished it, so many apologies for the delay. And many apologies for the disappearing LJ-cut.

Many thanks to cindergal  for the rapid-fire beta! She rocks my little world as always. Thanks also to Ocean’s Twelve for the shamelessly poached dialogue that starts this story. They seemed far too Spike and Buffy not to borrow!

Habeas Corpses, 4 (of 7) by Peyton

This entry is part 4 of 4 in the series Habeas Corpses

There’s two, maybe three chapters after this one and they will be posted over ladypeyton the next few days at since I felt I was rushing the story too much. I almost posted at 8:00 but realized I really needed to rewrite the whole chapter and take more time with fleshing it out. I was tempted to gloss over too many fine points. The plot is defintiely firm. The story will definitely be finished shortly but just not here and not now.

“Habeas Corpses” by Peyton

This entry is part 1 of 4 in the series Habeas Corpses

Title: Habeas Corpses
Timeline: Post “Not Far Away”
Summary: What does the life of a slayer look like from the outside looking in? What if the people looking are scared?
NB: This will be seven parts all of which are not finished. The muse has been ornery and I haven’t had a chance to have this beta’d. I have great hopes of being able to finish this today but if not the entire story will appear in a beta’d form on my livejournal in the near future. Thank you to my betas even if I haven’t had a chance to use you yet. Each of the seven parts of this story was written to the song mentioned at the beginning of the section. Thank you to enigmaticblues for the idea. Thank you also goes to elinora for sharing the day with me

Where am I?
