Five Times Buffy Didn’t Kiss Spike (And One Time She Did)
Written for the Fall 2008 round of Seasonal Spuffy, and set in a very AU S6, where Buffy didn’t die.
Alternate Universe
Et Lux in Tenebris (And the Light Shineth in the Darkness)
Spoilers for “The Gift” and S6. Spike manages to save Dawn, but pays a terribly high price. Will he be able to find meaning in his suffering?
Brace Yourself
In the sequel to Collide, there are unexpected consequences to the ritual Buffy did to break the curse on Spike, Dawn is trying to figure out what it means to be the Key, and Willow is coming home. And that’s just the beginning.
Collide
What if that house-demolishing in Smashed was a metaphor with a different meaning than the writers gave it? What if that night marked a release of a different sort? Goes seriously AU immediately after Smashed , and makes reference to my short story, “The Promise I’m Keeping,” written for summer_of_spike.
Bonding Experience
Ficlet following Cast Me Not Away. Buffy and Spike go on that vacation. Wesley gets to baby-sit.
An Unaccomplished Fate
The sequel to Avocation and Under the Sun. Spike and Buffy’s relationship is on solid ground at last, but a new prophecy threatens everything they hold dear. The bonds of family and friendship will be tested, lives will be threatened, and the entire world will hang on the choice of one vampire.
Under the Sun, Part 2
Set after Avocation in an alternate S4 where many events of canon get thrown out the window. This one won’t make any sense if you haven’t read the previous story.

Avocation
The gypsies curse the wrong vampire, and by the time they rectify their mistake, Spike has been fundamentally altered. Nearly a century later, the Slayer needs help, and there’s only one person qualified for the job. Of course, he’s not real interested in taking it.
All the Graces of the Dawn
This is a sequel to The Great Advantage of Being Alive. If you haven’t read it, this one really won’t make any sense. In any case, Spike’s trying to find out what it means to be a man, and to fight at Buffy’s side. Buffy’s struggling with what it means to be the Slayer. Dawn wants to know if she’s real, and Glory just really wants her Key back.
