I’m finally ready to admit that I'm obsessed with Spuffy.

I mean, I did the back-to-back BtVS DVD/Netflix marathons, the endless news searches on Google, and the all-nighters reading Spuffy fanfiction.

But it was just a phase, right? So I kept waiting for the fervor to cool, the interest to wane, only it didn't.

And it didn't.

So, long after the show ended, the comic got weird, and the steady flow of existing Spuffy fanfics started to ebb more than flow, I jumped in, Glory’s tower style, into the writing. Because I absolutely love the fact that there are others just like me (Hi, there!), who adore Buffy and Spike. Because I desperately want to keep the fandom going.

I write other, original, stories too, but somehow I'm just stuck on Spuffy. Well, quite right too.

Writing is usually an activity done alone and away from everyone else, but writing fanfic, with a community hungry for the same stories that drive my muse, is an exhilarating experience. I never feel alone--especially when you lovely people leave me reviews, so that I know I'm not shouting to an empty room with my story in my hand and my heart on my sleeve! :)

By the way, I maintain a LiveJournal account where I post BtVS/Angel drabbles, ficlets and fandom discussions, that don't always make their way here. I'm on AO3 too, which I do intend to keep in-step with EF.

Summary:

Buffy dragged her fingertips across a row of book spines, feeling the wisdom below, like a fortune teller intuiting the secrets of her deck of cards.
 

Buffy makes a rare find during a quiet, solitary moment, in a library, of all places. Set sometime post "Chosen".

Summary: “You really trust him?” It boiled down to this, didn’t it? Buffy comes clean to Willow about Spike.
The second one-shot in the "New Territory" Trilogy, sequel to "New Territory" (#1), and prequel to "Enough" (#3). Each can be read as a stand-alone, but is better together as a series, as intended.
After the trilogy, the story continues on to my Season 6 rewrite titled, Edge of Sorrow, Heart of Truth.

Summary: Buffy woke up the same way she always did these days, a blank alertness overtaking sleep, without the harsh interjection of an alarm clock whisking her into action, without the dying whispers of a dream urging her to stay. Neither sudden nor gradual, instead it felt inevitable — like birth; yet always decidedly out of place. What was life after death in a nutshell, if not that?
(Early season 6 AU story with a canon opening and a happy Spuffy ending.)

Summary:  
Buffy leaps from Glory’s Tower to her death, but not before consummating her burgeoning relationship with Spike, unbeknown to others. What happens now that she’s dead?
 
A rewrite from the end of Season 5 to a more Spuffy-friendly Season 6, this resurrected Buffy will come back to a different group dynamic, face different challenges, and eventually, learn to love and fight again with a Scooby-accepted vampire lover by her side.
 
A continuation of my Season 5 trilogy of one-shots set in the same universe, which sees Buffy and Spike embark on a romantic relationship.

Summary: “Don’t hold back,” she whispered. A truer invitation he had never received.
Before her fatal leap off of Glory’s tower, Buffy invites Spike into her house to retrieve weapons. An extended version of that scene.
Third and last of the New Territory Trilogy of one-shots that begins with “New Territory” (#1) and continues with “Cold Light of Day” (#2). After the trilogy, the story then continues on to my Season 6 rewrite titled, Edge of Sorrow, Heart of Truth.

Summary:  
Five years after “Not Fade Away”, Buffy and Spike have settled in San Francisco. Here’s a glimpse of their life together. They may never achieve "normal", but perhaps they do end up with "ever after". Heaven knows they've earned it.
 
This was inspired by “Stay” by the incomparable anaross, only instead of a beautiful, heart-breaking story of major character death, I offer a comfortable imagining of what an “ever after” might look like for Buffy and Spike.
 
Consider this my penance for having written a very sad and tear-stained opening chapter, for “Edge of Sorrow, Heart of Truth”, my S6 rewrite. I’m afraid there are a couple more chapters of sad coming. I hope you find this uplifting. Your unicorn chaser, as it were.

Summary: Following that kiss of gratitude, Buffy leaves a battered Spike in his crypt alone to recover from Glory’s torture, only to return moments later. First of a trilogy of one-shots. Each can be read as a stand-alone, but is better read together as a series, as intended. Sequels to this story are "Cold Light of Day" (#2) and "Enough" (#3).
The story then continues on to my Season 6 rewrite titled, Edge of Sorrow, Heart of Truth.

Summary: A newly resurrected Buffy considers the tricky, slippery thing that is time. Set in early Season 6.
Compliant with the "Edge of Sorrow, Heart of Truth" long fic. Can be considered a look-ahead scene taken place in the same 'verse. If you're not following that story, this may be interpreted as canon-compliant too (which will place the story a little later in Season 6).

Summary: Spike thrust his hands into his leather coat pockets and narrowed his eyes. This was no simple workout demonstration. He didn’t need a bloody mirror to know when he was looking at his own body double. “Don’t know if I should be flattered or insulted, love. Missed me, did you?”
(A one-shot crackfic.)

Summary: Since when? You ask.
It’s such an impossible question that I flounder. I can quip and banter my way through patrol on auto-pilot, but when it comes to matters of the heart… I laugh at my own clumsiness, and the feeble laughter chokes up in my throat and comes out sounding like a sputter.

Summary: Too much, too much were the repressed memories newly unshackled, unrelenting, superimposed onto the reality before her, projected right into her mind’s eye. The two proposals seemed to be unfolding in real time and on rhythm with her breathing, faster and faster until she was hyperventilating. The world spun in mockery of her pain, throwing in her face funhouse mirror-reflected rain-slicked sidewalk over toppled skyscrapers under distorted pedestrians drenched in harsh lights…

A decade after the Season 7 finale, "Chosen", half way around the world, a surprise turn of events served as a wakeup call for the drifting Slayer, who had been so completely over the past that she had long stopped counting the years since Spike had exited her life. Now, however, Buffy finally knew what and whom she wanted (and the "whom" was Spike!), and she would go after her heart's desire with a single-minded determination as only a Slayer would.

But with all that lay behind, uncertainty filled the way onward. Was it too late? Was she too late?
