The Threadverse by lex_hex
Summary: After returning (to put it politely) from heaven, Buffy has been having a hard time. So, naturally, her situation veers even further off course when she gets dropkicked back in time to high school, with three years of foresight jammed into an 18-year-old brain and body. Turns out you're pretty much stuck wherever you end up when the world gets partially unmade around you, but the chance to remold it into a different shape might just be worth the ride.  
Summary: The Rwasundi demon summoned by the Trio sends Buffy back in time to the moment that Anya's power center is destroyed. Navigating the implications of time travel, Buffy gets to revisit some past events with a new perspective and lots of foresight.

Summary: Buffy, after being sent back in time from February 2002 to December 1998, had begun to feel comfortable. Faith and Anya are in on her time-travel secret, the Mayor didn't eat anyone at Graduation, and she was the one who ended it with Angel. But her simmering worry about The Initiative comes to a boil when Faith disappears, leaving her once again the only slayer on the Hellmouth. Her knowledge of one possible future begins to feel insufficient as more events shift, knocking into each other like dominoes until even her best-laid plans seem destined to fail. 
 
And of course, the vampire who has been pestering her subconscious shows up to do it in real life. An alliance she once took for granted (okay, took for annoying and unavoidable) must be built in her new life, and the clock is ticking to get to the bottom of the ever more sinister plans of Maggie Walsh.
