Story Notes: If you're looking at me judgmentally for starting YET ANOTHER wip... you are free to continue looking at me judgementally, haha, I have a real problem. It's like I'm playing whack-a-mole with these ideas that keep popping up and I have to write them just to make them be QUIET. Every single one of my fics will be returned to and completed though, so if you need to wait on this one, or any of them, until that happens, I totally understand!
Anyway, this is my take on Something Blue, which I've never properly done; I think S4 scares me to write for! Some other things that scare me to write are first person, and present tense, neither of which I have ever done for Spuffy, so of course I'm doing them both here, haha.
Banner made by me, as you can tell from the choppiness! But this story and banner idea came about on a day I just could not stop staring at the happy tears in Buffy's eyes when Spike proposes to her and I felt like that needed to be captured and celebrated.
