Categories: Season 4
Characters: Buffy, Giles, Sam Lawson, Spike, Willow, Xander
Summary:
I'd really love to see a fic where Sam comes to visit Spike after he's been chipped. Maybe they have a habit of getting together every now and then, good friends since they escaped that sub together and Spike showed Sam the ropes.
- If Season 4 or 5, Spike is in a much stronger position with a friend he can depend on instead of, say, Harmony. And even without a soul or chip, Sam isn't doing anything stakable, so the Scoobies warily tolerate him. If 4, he's eager to fight Nazis again. If 5, he's another being who can get past Glory's spell.
- If Season 6, maybe Spike called Sam to help him protect Dawn. Now Sam finally has a mission again.
Can Haves:
-Scoobies finding out who sired Sam and when.
-the Scoobies and Sam getting along really well until he's outed as a vamp.
- Riley & pals kinda respecting a WWII vet even as they hate a vampire. Also Army/Navy rivalry?
- Sam/Faith
-Angel coming to town, and Sam chewing him out.
Can't Have:
-Character bashing
