Brava, Holly! Brief but such huge emotional impact. I really can’t understand why it didn’t receive more ‘Favorites.’ It worked so well with the story line but resolved the terrible heartache at the end of the series. If it is ever expanded, I would love to see Buffy tell Giles and the rest (after taking Dawn aside) that she and Spike were partners and it was not open to discussion. At the end, it would have been great for B to ask S if she should look into birth control, and he to say maybe they shouldn’t. Loved this fic!
Summary: Book II of the Yellow Brick Road series. While trying to cope with mixed feelings and brewing resentment over the fact that Spike screwed her and vanished, Buffy finds herself increasingly suspicious about Faith's close relationship with Angel. Just as things can't get any more confusing, a blond vampire she was sure she would never see again decides that it's time. -- Originally published in 2003/2004; heavily edited and revised in 2019.

Whew! That is the best rendition I’ve seen of Angel/Angelus, or anyone else, playing with Spike and Buffy’s heads. Great job!

I really enjoyed this! It was great reading a Vampire Buffy story with a positive ending. It gave us a really supportive relationship with Spike, and worked out the insecurities and defensiveness in both characters. It was different to see kind treatment of Xander and, to some extent, Giles. It is nice for those characters to get some relief from their usual nastiness.

I don’t know if writers still look at comments after this long, but just in case... I find this story very interesting, especially considering the perspective of the more recent “Me Too” movement. Using the hyperbole of the vampire myth, I think it offers a very mature view of how dreadful mistakes can be made but gotten past with time and understanding. Spike is suffering too as well as Buffy. Ironically, I can attest that not many of our real world vampires are as caring and conscience ridden as William the Bloody. I am loving this story — totally engrossing! Thank you!
Summary: When Buffy and Spike's lives become entwined with the fates of a slayer and a samurai who lived and died three hundred years ago, everything they think they know about their relationship and themselves is called into question.

Great Fic! Loved the plot, loved the characters.
Summary: Buffy takes desperate measures to try to remove the temptation from her life. But when things don’t go anywhere near according to plan, she finds herself discovering what she hadn’t wanted to believe was possible. (This story is set in Season Six, but goes completely AU at the beginning of “Gone.” For the purposes of this fic, I’m ignoring the Nerd Trio and the social worker completely.)

on August 15, 2019
Don’t know if authors look at or care for comments so many years after their stories are written. I liked this very much. The ending produced some much needed happiness for sad, traumatic fictional characters, and for those of us who love them. It made me reflect on how everyone was lined up to dictate Buffy’s whole being — her Watcher, parents, Angel, her best friends, Riley, school, government. Of course, a whole organization of Watchers solely existing to control her. The only ones helping her become her own person were Tara and a renegade vampire. Even Spike tried to control her in the wrong way at times. No wonder the girl had trouble knowing her own mind. Great job with this!
Summary: Alternate reality. Buffy starts as a normal college girl. But her life is slowly turned upside down beginning with the day she’s unexpectedly in danger. Hired by chance to protect her is Spike, a vampire with a reputation for doing business with anyone for enough money. She’s less than thrilled, but finds herself drawn to him even as she realizes he’s more than he seems. But humans aren’t the only ones after her, and when she’s called as the Slayer, her whole world changes. Things with Spike, who she’s discovered some realities about, are no longer as simple as they seemed. But being sent to the Hellmouth and realizing the high death rate of her calling, Buffy hires Spike as backup with the only thing she has left—Slayer blood.

Summary:
Summary: This story picks up at the end of Season 2, The Becoming 2. Buffy has made a deal with Spike to defeat Angelus. It goes off canon when Buffy leaves Giles' flat after talking with Whistler about how to defeat Angelus. Will Spike still help Buffy defeat Angelus when things go pear shaped? And what then? Where will their lives go from there?
You'll find familiar challenges for Buffy with unexpected results as Spike faces them with her. If you like a story with love, romance, sex, fights, angst, tears, laughter, marriage and babies then you're in the right place! I hope you enjoy it!
{{ Thanks so much to Angelic Amy and PaganBaby for all their help with this story!}}

What were your exact words? Something like the Evil Joss Dimension. Loved the concept. Of course, breaking every Spuffy fan’s heart directly led to Spuffy fics, so maybe not 100% evil. Just 96%?
Author's Response on July 06, 2022 03:33pm
Yes, as much as we bemoan what Joss did, he is the reason we are still in love with these characters 25 years later, still writing and reading fanfic about them, still FIXING everything!
Thanks so much for reading and stopping in! Love hearing from you!

One thing I find a bit distracting is the changes back and forth in verb tense. I wonder if you have considered just keeping the narrative in past tense? Obviously dialog is an exception. Otherwise I love your fics. Tight construction, novel plots, great action, and positive Spuffy outcomes. I think the pregnant Slayer drinking blood a la Twilight was okay since it fit. The Holtz was a good addition. I found him one of the creepiest characters in either the Buffy or Angel series.
Summary: Ever wonder what would have happened if Spike hadn't lost the Gem of Amarra to Buffy? If he'd won that fight instead? Warning, this story starts out very dark. Evil vampire, after all.

What a great fic! Loved it!
Summary: Season 5. Begins with ‘Spiral’ in the abandoned gas station, and goes *far* off-canon almost immediately.
When Dawn makes the ultimate sacrifice to save her sister, friends, and the world, Buffy’s mind snaps. When Buffy's friends give up hope of her ever recovering, and become afraid that she’ll turn violent and uncontrollable, they call in the Council to help. Fearing what the Council will do, Spike, forgotten and ignored by her friends, steps in. Will he be able to reach the Slayer when no one else could? Will he be able to keep her out of the hands of the Council and away from her ‘helpful’ friends? How much heartbreak, guilt, and failure can one girl stand before her indestructible spirit finally resigns the fight and gives up hope?
WARNINGS: Threesome B/G/G action involving Spike, Buffy, and BuffyBot. Implied Rape. Main Character Death. Physical Torture. Plenty of angst.

Did other obnoxious people mention it’s “cavalry” not “Calvary,” the place where crosses became a thing? Really common editing headache. Oh, I hope someone makes a very painful end for Weatherby! Please oh please!

You know, I don't think anyone did on this story, but I think I've gotten that message on another one at some point. Thank you! Not obnoxious at all. I really do try to not have mistakes in my stories but... {{shrug}}
I'll fix it. Thanks!
Weatherby certainly needs a painful end!

No, not squicky enough. I was a childhood abuse case, so no doubt I am prejudiced. He should have lost them. Even then, he would do it again.
Author's Response on March 28, 2022 03:01pm
It's hard trying to walk a line to not squick out too many people while also delivering adequate retribution. You're likely right, though ... he's un-redeemable, for sure.
Thanks so much for stopping in! Love hearing from you.

Wow, Masterpiece of a story! The previous chapter was a triple hanky. Thanks for the sunny ending! 
Author's Response on April 01, 2022 07:20pm
Ooo! Triple hanky! that's quite a compliment! Thank you so much. I'm so glad you enjoyed the ups and downs of this story, and the HEA.
Thank you again for stopping in. Really is lovely to know people are still enjoying this older story.
Summary: Being happy together in a modest, minimum wage life was everything they wanted. Being able to find real love again was more than they had hoped. A short sequel/ companion piece to Living Conditions, please read that story first. Takes place between chapter fifteen, when Spike and Buffy reunite, and the epilogue that shows them living their simple, happily ever after, several years later.

Brilliant to allow Buffy to chuck it all and bolt the second time. The poor girl Had a world of unfair pressure from Watcher, friends, family, not to get started on demons and Watcher’s Council. I always loved the Ann period for her character and this explored that beautifully. I liked that Spike was honestly created, with muggings and Drusilla longings, and some real anger at Buffy, but the payoff is his character’s extraordinary ability to love and empathize. The humor was great fun and a very nice take off from the two series. Thank you so much for these two stories. They expand the Buffy/Spike legend beautifully and are at the top of my favorites.
Summary: Insert fake sister A into memory slot B. When the monks form Dawn, the PTB take a helping hand in the creation of the fake memories. How does the interactions with Dawn in the past change Buffy and Spike's relationship in the present and ultimately the future? Begins in S5 but quickly downturns to S2. Spike/Buffy with Spike and Dawn friendship.
Many thanks to Pfeifferpack for the wonderful banner.

What a wonderful story! I really liked your showing a man (Xander) can be abused as well as women, if not always in the same ways. My father was and my mother abused me too. Thank you for that. I hate it when a really good story ends. I want to keep living there. Luckily we have so many good writers on this site.

I absolutely loved the concept of FAMILY, and most of all that Spike got to have real family!

I really like Dalton a lot. I would love to see him survive in some story and be a part of the team, or at least Spike and Buffy’s team. Loving Dawn in this. Fun story!!
Summary: "Make me what I was," he'd said. And the demon did; only, he didn't expect those words to send him to his past. Unfortunately for Whistler, this meant enlisting a certain Slayer to retrieve him. In the end, Buffy found herself in for more than she bargained for. Dressing as a man was the least of her problems.

I like the idea of the sisters and their interactions here. If one only sticks with canon, why write fan fic? Besides it would make it boring. A lot of writers have added sisters. It makes sense with Spike’s easy affection for Dawn.

Marvelous fic. I love the idea of Spike helping to parent both Dawn and his younger sister!

Really great fic!!! Of course, there has to be the Sunnydale sequel, right? RIGHT???
Summary:
In life a lot can happen, people move on, the world changes. You get older, dreams are sometimes unobtainable. How would Buffy cope with getting older - and what about happiness for her and Spike? Is that still just out of reach this Christmas?

Thank you so much. Written a long time ago, but I am still pleased with it. At present writing historical romances - The Cousins of Pemberley series. I have a hard time stopping vampires and Slayers from showing up!!!
Summary:
Goes off-canon during The Harsh Light of Day. Sunnydale is devastated by the release of a prototype virus that was being developed by a branch of The Initiative. Now, half the population is 'infected', and the other half is living on borrowed time. A bite will turn you into one of them, and Buffy's got her mom and sister to think about. With the gem, Spike's immune and so it makes perfect sense to Buffy that he should help them get out of town. But this thing's already bigger than Sunnydale, and if Spike's their best chance of survival then it looks like he's along for the ride.
Introducing: A vampire who's been needed before, but never exactly wanted. And a girl struggling to understand the true nature of good and evil, whilst standing shoulder to shoulder with the Slayer of Slayers. (Inspired by Stephen King's The Stand, AMC's The Walking Dead and every zombie flick I've ever set eyes on).
Winner at the SunnyD Awards (Round 31) for Best Unfinished, Best Drama and Best Plot. Endless heartfelt thanks to everyone who voted!
