Season: 5
Rating: PG-13
Warning: Buffy/Other (doesn’t last the full story)

Title: Buffy, Spike, and the Witch of the Acheron River
Rating: PG-13
Disclaimer: I own nothing. Joss owns all.
Summary: A sort of fairy tale. Buffy receives word that someone she knows has come to the meadows across the river. Written for the 15th anniversary of Seasonal Spuffy and for all the lovely people who make fandom a wonderful place to be. (This was written in about three days after my son went to bed so any mistakes are all mine.)

Era/season/setting: Post everything (sweet togetherness)
Rating: G
For those of you that remember, I had intended to start posting this story back in May, but due to catching Covid, I was delayed. So I only ended up posting the first chapter, which could sort of stand alone as-was. I have since caught up with my writing, so am now launching the rest of the story, starting with Chapter 2! You can either read Chapter 1 as originally posted in seasonal_spuffy here, or the (slightly) updated version on AO3 here. I do recommend reading it somewhere, because chapter 2 does follow on directly.
Title: Nothing Is Finished, Chapter 2
Author: stuffnonsense / stuffandnonsense
Era/season/setting: Post-Series
Rating: Mature
Warnings: There is some Spike/Other in this chapter, but it’s brief and is not carried over at all into the rest of the story.
In Ripples on a Hellmouth, Buffy went back in time seven times to fix her past and stop the world from ending. Each trip back showed her a different ‘present’, until by the end she barely recognised it. But she still ended up with almost everything she’d ever hoped for in a happily ever after.
At least part of that was because of Spike. Just … not the same Spike she found herself married to in 2023. It was a different version of Spike – one who Buffy met in passing in one of her intermediate futures – who made just the one time jump, back seven years in time-travelling-Buffy’s timeline — to when Buffy’s husband died.
This is his story.
Title: William the Bloody: Prince of Thieves, Chapter 1

Setting: AU Season 4
Rating: R
Word Count: 2438
Author’s Note: Thank you to CubbieGirl1723 & Kanotari for beta-reading. This is 1st chapter of maybe 10ish? More will be posted during free-for-all days later in the month. Also, Happy Birthday to me. Decided to choose my own birthday, lol
Summary: Spike, Robin Wood, and their merry band of friends travel to California to rescue a mage. Faced with the Sunnydale Slayer and the Initiative, what are five vigilantes to do?
I volunteered for today because it is a date with meaning over here in England. Poor old Guy Fawkes; sometimes you can’t help but feel his heart was in the right place. And this year it’s the day my country goes back into lockdown while across the Atlantic big decisions have still not been finalised.
This story is set now. Spike and Buffy have settled down, and moved relatively recently to England, only to be hit hard by the mess that is 2020. IOW it’s a bit of fluff.
Rating: R for implied sexytimes.

A/N: Life is crazy and I missed my posting date, so I decided to rush something out for this last free-for-all. It’s super short and sappy, but sometimes we just need some of that. Hope you enjoy!
Title: How do you feel about Buffy now?
Creator: the_wiggins and Transformer
Season/Era: NA
Author’s Note: Inspired by double_dutchess‘s fic “It’s a great story, don’t“, I decided to make my own Talk to Transformer fic using a line from my Seasonal Spuffy entry “A Guy Can Dream“as a prompt. Only the bolded parts are written by me. The rest are the inventions of a text predicting AI.
Very short, very silly, very unbeta’d, but gosh darn it, it’s the last day of Seasonal Spuffy!
This piece is based on one of my favorite songs. I can’t help but think of Spike and Buffy and how their journey has been so powerfully influenced by their love relationships. Thanks to all who have looked at my works – Much appreciated. Again, Thanks to all who created all these wonderful works for the Spuffy fans to enjoy. The song is White Flag by Dido written by Dido Armstrong, Richard W. Jr. Nowels and Rollo Armstrong.
Here are my last two submissions for this Seasonal Spuffy round – Hope you all are having a wonderful day of Remembrance for those we have Loved and Lost this Memorial Day. Thanks for keeping the Spuffyverse strong and active to help get us through all the times of troubles in our lives. Like Buffy and Spike – we can always change our paths and that we can gain strength for all our hard life lessons. Love on this Memorial Day.

Title: Teaser for the Sequel
Author: stuffandnonsense (stuffnonsense)
Era/Season/Setting: Post-Series
Rating: PG
Warning: Spike/Other (exactly as much as there was in Ripples, possibly very slightly less)
Author’s Note: This is the kicking off point for another story, but that won’t come out for a while yet (I had Covid, it slowed everything up). However, on its own it is a sequel of sorts for Ripples on a Hellmouth: re-imagining the chapter ‘Four‘ from Spike’s perspective. You may want to read Ripples (or at least ‘Four’) first, but this shouldn’t be totally unreadable if you don’t want to.

It’s early 2020. Buffy and Spike Summers-Pratt are happily married. He has shanshued; she has retired from slaying. Then they get a call…
