Past Featured StoryDUST by KnifeEdge [NC-17] Likes: 1,142 Comments: 921
Summary: She'd kicked his butt, taken the Gem and sent it off to Angel. Buffy thought she'd seen the last of Spike. Clearly, she’d been too optimistic. That he was in her house, in her room, waking her out of a sound sleep and asking for (okay, demanding) her help meant that something had to be majorly wrong. They weren't due for another apocalypse, but...why else would a vampire make a truce with the Slayer?

Past Featured StoryEnemy Mine by Blade Redwind [NC-17] Likes: 1,025 Comments: 470
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.

Thank you! 

Past Featured StoryEver Sun, Ever Moon by St Ephiny [NC-17] Likes: 1,172 Comments: 761
Summary: The  First wasn't stupid, it had to know that Spike would win against Wood in that garage.  Even if the fight wasn't fair.  Even with the trigger driving him mad.
So it stepped in.
Just a single moment of intervention - and everything is different. One tiny second of distraction, and Buffy's world ends.  She wasn't ready for him to be gone.

Starts with "Lies my Parents Told Me" and veers sharply into AU.

Normal is Just a Word by slaymesoftly [NC-17] Likes: 39 Comments: 13
Summary: Could be considered season six and seven (or even season five at the beginning and almost an AH), but I call it AU because there's some ambiguity about which world is real. The premise is what if Buffy really was delusional and eventually recovers her sanity enough to leave the mental hospital and begin her life anew? Can she really shake off the responsibilities of the slayer that easily? Not a particularly fluffy fic by the end. Just so you know....

I had been looking for a fic set in Normal Again for a long time and finally I have not only found it but it's amazing. Fully adhering to the canon as I see it, seasons 6 and 7 could have gone like this.
Also I generally don't really like how Seeing Red is bypassed or rewritten, but your rewrite in its simplicity really won me over. Thank you.

Thank you so much for telling me you like this story. It was a little challenging and the ending often puts people off.  I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I read this story for the second time and I enjoyed the beautiful journey even better than the first.  This for me is one of the most beautiful fic ever. 
Thank you very much for giving them the happiness and love they deserved. And also thanks for the beautiful soundtrack!

In your last note you said you had another long fic in mind in this universe.  Even if some time has passed I hope that soon we will be able to enjoy your beautiful writing again.

MickyMurray commented on Chapter 42: Chapter 42 (Epilogue: This time,) on February 27, 2021

The most beautiful fic I've ever read. The characters, the philosophical content, the plots, the intensity of the dialogues, everything is perfect. What a beautiful journey. Thank you so much. I hope you will be back to write about them soon.

Past Featured StoryCry Havoc, and Let Slip Your Heart by Touchstoneaf [Adult Only] Likes: 686 Comments: 298
Summary:

Part 1 of the Something Wicked series.  (S4, between "Something Blue" and "Hush")

The Hellions have visited Sunnydale before.  Here and there, in twos and threes, looking for a good time.  Any hellmouth is a good time, after all.  Usually they don’t stay long, since the new Slayer started to get a reputation for making good times go bad.  No one wants to play when there’s a sheriff in town.  But then word gets around that a vamp with a reputation of his own has joined the Slayer’s camp.  That pisses off more than a few boys in the demon world; especially demons with a score to settle and a serious dislike of vamps in general, that one in particular.

What’s interesting is… Once the score gets settled, the sheriff gets distracted dealing with the fallout.  And all of a sudden, the town’s wide open. 

Or is it?

Sea and fire and woman by Ginger [R] Likes: 146 Comments: 88
Summary: Of course, she’d have to deal with it. She couldn’t let some sunburned tourist get eaten just because she was wearing a cute outfit and feeling full-to-bursting of bread, cheese, roast chicken and wine and just wanted to chill, have a nightcap and, if the mood hit her and opportunity presented itself, flirt shamelessly with the wait staff.
 
This is a sunny little happy anniversary fic dedicated to my dearest Cosmic Tuesdays in honor of our meeting up in person for the first time over Pride Weekend last year. Our friendship over the last 12 months has been a gift. :-)

I loved this story very much.


Spike and Buffy are so mature and at the same time they are still themselves.  I really like that you emphasized that Buffy was being treated by a psychotherapist and that it helped her overcome many of her problems so that she could finally start a healthy relationship with Spike at a good time in their lives.  I think this is what they both really needed.


You have dealt with many difficult topics with delicacy and intelligence without ever forgetting the irony.


Thanks for this beautiful story!

Author's Response on February 02, 2022 08:11pm

What a wonderful surprise to get such a lovely comment on a story I finished a while ago. I didn’t love that plot point but as I write canon-compliant-post-canon, I can either go around it or deal with it. I generally choose the latter out of respect for characters, both of whom I feel were let down in that case. Thank you so much for your kind words. They mean more than you know.

UnNormal World by kats_meow [NC-17] Likes: 27 Comments: 16
Summary: Set in the world of "Normal Again."  Buffy decides that there's no antidote for what's truly wrong with her.  There's only one way she can embrace her parents and some sound mental health in the normal world that beckons:  rid herself of Sunnydale and all the pesky figments plaguing her mind.  Xander, Willow, Dawn, and most of all, Spike - they've all got to go.  But before she can send them packing, Buffy finds herself forced to play the ultimate survivalist game that exists within the borders of her own mind.  Winning each level to save herself, her friends, her sister, even the vampire she thinks she hates, will be a matter of life or the most permanent kind of game-over:  real death.

I loved this story in so many ways.

The train ride and the window scenery changing every time seemed so metaphorical. I adored it.

I hope you'll tell us what happens next.

I like it very much when Buffy is steadfast in saving/finding Spike. 

Author's Response on December 08, 2021 02:17pm

Ahh I LOVE that you think the window scenery changing was metaphorical! I wanted it to be even more so, and then I couldn't figure out how to make it work the way I wanted, so thank you for saying it still felt that way to you!

Agreed, Buffy being steadfast in rescuing Spike is always wonderful to see, because we don't have to wonder if he would do the same for HER.

Thank you very, very much for this comment!

Thank you so much for concluding Train to Nowhere with this beautiful fic.

I found this poetic and so metaphorical, I love it! All this can be completely Canon for me.

Delicate, emotional... I adored everything, thanks again.
