Another short scene (912 words) from a future chapter of my S6 rewrite, Edge of Sorrow, Heart of Truth, structured here as a standalone ficlet titled “Homework”, in which Dawn makes a Spuffy discovery (concerning an event covered in great detail in the S5 one-shot titled “Enough” linked from the End Notes). Feedback welcome.

Fic: Edge of Sorrow, Heart of Truth, Chapter 6 (PG-13)
Here’s the yet-untitled Chapter 6 of Edge of Sorrow, Heart of Truth (it’s that new!), “One Link in the Chain of Destiny”, which concludes the story segment that begins in Chapter 5.
Fic: Edge of Sorrow, Heart of Truth, Chapter 5 (PG-13)
Hello! I’m contributing to seasonal_spuffy for the first time this year, and very excited to be posting today. Thank you, mods and fellow participants, for making this happen!
First up, Chapters 5 and 6 of my Season ~6 rewrite, Edge of Sorrow, Heart of Truth. These two chapters, set in the summer before Buffy is resurrected, are canon-compliant and self-contained. No prior knowledge required.
Summary: Giles makes a surprising discovery about Spike in his crypt and ends up rather the worse for wear, and Willow takes on extracurricular activities.
One notable departure from canon so far: In this verse Buffy and Spike have embarked on a budding relationship in Season 5 (in a trilogy of one-shots), culminating in my first NC-17 story where they consummate said relationship. Spike is also (more) accepted by the Scoobies. Edge of Sorrow will depart further from canon later on, but I think for now that’s all that’s different.
After the Deluge – the WIP that just won’t die.
Today is slaymesoftly‘s posting day, but she is struggling with a poorly computer, an inept repair service and the impossibility of using tablets and phones to post anything of actual substance.
So I offered to step in, to share something I had planned to post at the weekend, when you Colonials have a Mother’s Day. Many, many moons ago now I started a post-NFA, post-Chosen story called After the Deluge. Quite a lot of its early chapters were posted to this community. One point three three recurring percent of you may even recall the fic, which had Spike and Buffy slowly moving, one from California, the other from Rome, until they finally meet in the Cotswolds, with a substantial cast of others. The last chapter I posted was Chapter 25.
Well, an MA took up a lot of time, and other writing was a distraction. But I did do more, and as it started on this comm, it seems a good place to offer it up. Spike, Buffy and the gang are in a barn in the Cotswolds, it’s dark, and The First has recently appeared to scare everybody a bit.

In the five years Spike’s been missing, the world around Buffy has irrevocably changed. The general population has woken up to vampires’ existence and the kill count has dropped way down. She’s sharing a house with a soulless vampire, still going by the name of Faith. But what does Spike have to do with it? And what does it mean for their future?

Thanks for everything, mods – and thanks to people reading. I’m going to try and get the last chapter posted tonight, but editing does seem to be taking quite a long time. I hope you’re enjoying things!

Well, hello Seasonal Spuffy! It’s been a long time. Hope you’re all having a nice Sunday! I’ve got some fic for my offering, complete in four chapters, all of which I’m hoping to get posted today, though it might be touch and go. If I don’t manage it, then the ending will definitely be posted on the free-for-all day. I hope you enjoy! (And I know, I’m surprised I’m giving you a summary that actually sums up what the fic is about as well.)
