Fic: Something Borrowed

jen_nsync_landl

Hi, I’m Jen, and I’ll be bringing you today’s entertainment. Hope you enjoy!

Title: Something Borrowed
Author: jen_nsync_landl
Summary: This tale takes place a couple of days after the conclusion of “Something Blue.” Let’s pretend that, occasionally, the weird and the wacky happen in Sunnydale on Thursday nights. ;) Someone new comes to town, spells are performed, hijinks ensue. Oh, yeah, and there’s the small matter of a Spuffy re-engagement…
Disclaimer: I am Dorothy, the small and meek. All hail the great and powerful Joss from whom all inspiration flows.
A/N: Without amybnnyc  cheering me on, this fic would not have been nearly as fun to write as it was. Her comments and suggestions were invaluable, and all remaining mistakes are mine. Thanks for all of your help and encouragement, sweetheart! Big thanks as well to itmustbetuesday  for putting this community together and to the other participants for the daily dose of Spuffy goodness.

Fic: Tekubi, Chapter 4

thisficklemob
This entry is part 4 of 6 in the series Tekubi

This will be my last post of the day. (I did tell you this was a WIP.) Thank you everyone for being so supportive and enthusiastic about my work. Special thanks to itmustbetuesday for creating this comm. It was the pressure of having a posting day to fill that finally got me back to working on this long-simmering story.

Now I’m going to kick back, answer comments if I have any coherence left, and indulge in some S2 Spuffy from my buddy in postage, the resplendent annapurna_2. All future chapters of Tekubi will be posted to my journal. Fair warning, a chapter a week is my goal. I work slowly. If you’d like to keep up with this fic but don’t want to scroll past my political or gratuitous real life posts to do so, or would rather wait until it’s finished, you can watch Tekubi in my memories.

Oh, and if anyone was curious: tekubi is Japanese for wrist, or literally, the hand’s neck.

Thanks again to rabid1st  for the lightning-fast beta on this part. I’m still uncertain about parts of this chapter, but I figured you’d rather have two more chapters today than not.

Previously: Tekubi, Chapter 1 | Chapter 2.

This entry is part 2 of 6 in the series Tekubi

Thank you, everyone, for your lovely comments on my previous posts. I’ll reply to them all when I’m done posting for the day.

If you missed it, in the wee hours this morning I posted Tekubi, Chapter 1, where you can find things like disclaimers and ratings and what the hell is going on here. And now…

Ficlet: “Pyre”

thisficklemob

This piece was originally intended to be the prologue of a longer story. That story may never be written, and this scene stands as an angsty ficlet on its own.

“Pyre”
By: caia
Rating: PG-13
Set: after the alley beating in “Dead Things”
Disclaimer: Joss owns these characters, the sick bastard.
Distribution: Do not post elsewhere without permission. Ask, I may say yes.
Feedback: adored.
Blurb: Long before considering what she deserved, he promised himself he’d give her what she needed.

Drabble, The Third…

annapurna_2

Here’s my final offering before I go grab some shut-eye. I’ll be back later on to post the first part of my NC-17 Season 2 Spuffy fic. The final two parts will follow as soon as I finish up that pesky middle
segment and apply a quick buff and polish.

But until then, I leave you with this…

Fic: Tekubi, Chapter 1

thisficklemob
This entry is part 1 of 6 in the series Tekubi

Hi! I’m caia, I’ll be your co-host here today on seasonal_spuffy, along with the talented annapurna_2.

My main offering will be the first couple chapters of a longer fic I conceived of back in the fall of 2003 based on spoilers for the AtS S5 episode “Damage”. Among the differences from canon, Spike’s hands are removed at the wrists, and he doesn’t immediately get them back. Don’t worry, though, there will be plenty of silliness and schmoop as well as angst.

Those allergic to WIPs may like to peruse my completed fiction.

Drabble, The First…

annapurna_2

Hello, all. I’m ever so pleased to be sharing this day with the lovely and gifted thisficklemob. I couldn’t be in better company. Can hardly wait to read your story, caia!

Also, many thanks to the amazing itmustbetuesday  for the marvelous job she’s doing with seasonal_spuffy. Kudos!

Now, for my contribution I’ll be posting a three-part NC-17 story set in Season 2… but not for a few hours. My muse went on strike last week, so I’ve still got the last bit of Chapter 2 to finish up as soon as I get a little sleep.

In the meantime, here’s the first of three drabbles to kick things off.

Drabble: Fatal Attraction

Season: I think you’ll figure it out. Heh.
Feedback: Thrilled to have it.

Fic: Boxing Day

Boxing Day

Rating: tame
Disclaimer: Not mine. Playing in someone else’s sandbox. Will put the toys back when I’m finished
Author’s note 1: Boxing Day, I know, not celebrated in Italy, but this fic takes place on 26 December 2005. Work with me. I stink at titles.
Author’s note 2: this one is for cindergal  who has been on my case for something Christmasy. It may have taken a year to finally write this, but this one is for you, dear!  Continue Reading →

Buffy and Spike: Cubed – 9

missmurchison
This entry is part 9 of 9 in the series Buffy and Spike: Cubed

Here is the end of a story that I started during the hiatus between Season 6 and 7 when I wondered what it would be like to have Buffy or Spike as a direct report and remarked to a friend that at least I didn’t have to deal with that at work. Her response was something along the lines of, “Write that,” and we tossed ideas around for a while. I’m very glad I blew the dust off this and finished it, because it was a lot of fun.

Thanks for all the comments. I’m going to try to reply to each one, but not tonight. I need to go pay attention to my family, who have been very understanding all day long about my obsession with this fic.  Continue Reading →

Buffy and Spike: Cubed – 6

The family has gone off holiday shopping, leaving Buffy and Spike with a chance to snoop around Ashiana, and me with the time to post another chapter. Here it is, with a ref basilio_the_cat  suggested in feedback, and another from one of my favorite authors.

(Edited to fix the chapter number.)

Buffy and Spike: Cubed – 5

This entry is part 5 of 9 in the series Buffy and Spike: Cubed

I seem to be posting one chapter for every load of laundry I do. If I could keep up this pace, on both the fic and dirty clothes fronts, not only would I have this story done by midnight, I’d finish half my other WIPs. That’s not going to happen, but Buffy and Spike are about to find some more trouble at Ashiana Industries.  Continue Reading →

Buffy and Spike: Cubed – 1

This entry is part 1 of 9 in the series Buffy and Spike: Cubed

I’m starting these posts late because my internet access went down this morning. I should manage to finish posting even if it goes down again by hopping on a dialup connection for short periods.

Thanks to keswindhover  for betaing on short notice, and thanks to the friend who has since disappeared from the fandom but who encouraged this idea in the first place. (If you ever read this, you know who you are, and you are missed by others as well as by me.) Thanks as well to itmustbetuesday  and everyone else here, with a special tip of the hat to liliaeth, with whom I share this day.

Title: Buffy and Spike: Cubed
Author: Miss Murchison
Rating: R, overall
Word Total: about 19,000. Maybe longer, I’m still editing the final chapters (yeah, I know) This will be posted by the end of the day in my time zone.
Confession: A tiny bit of this appeared in a slightly different form in an LJ post some time ago, but most of it is making its public debut for the first time.
Summary: To solve a mysterious string of deaths, Buffy and Spike must go where they have never gone before—undercover at a large company, where they must hunt down a murderer amid the cubicles while coping with PowerPoint Presentations and the Coffee Fund Rules.
