I have been involved in writing and reading Spuffy fiction for a long time, but sadly I have also been on more of a writing hiatus for many years.  I do intend to come back and finish each of my WIP's at some point, and I apologize that there are any WIP's even out there.  I always hated when I'd find a WIP from an author that didn't have updates for a year or more.  I'm sorry that I've become one of those.  Hopefully I can finish them all one day.

Death By Take Out by Tasha [PG] Likes: 18 Comments: 14
Summary: Never underestimate the usefulness of a good Chinese take out meal with all the trimmings. Set in the summer between Season 5 and Season 6. This is a one shot story with no pairings. I hope you enjoy Spike and Dawn's antics against Angel. Buffy even makes a bit of an appearance.

Destiny's Rewards by Tasha [PG] Likes: 34 Comments: 28
Summary: The cup of perpetual torment may have been fake, but Spike’s destiny as the victor is real. Angel has horded his supremacy over Spike for over a century, and it is time for Spike to show once and for all that he is the winner in the end. He wiped the floor with Angel during their battle in the opera house for the cup. Fake cup or not, he is about to be rewarded with everything he’s ever wanted. It’s time for Spike to be rewarded with his destiny. (Also I am changing the canon timeline for Angel at the end of this story because of how I ended up wanting to settle things.)

Duty or Destiny? by Tasha [NC-17] Likes: 86 Comments: 89
Summary: Starting with the episode "School Hard" and taking us through an alternate Season 3, this story is a response to Challenge #64 at The Bloodshedverse. Angel can't close Acathla this time. Only a pregnant Slayer's blood is able to tame the beast and seal Acathla forever, but who will the father be? Will she find love, or is she just doing her duty as the Chosen One to protect the earth from darkness? Full challenge requirements will be listed at the end of the story to keep from giving away several key plot points.
Winner at the Spark and Burn awards.

It's That Time of the Season by Tasha [PG-13] Likes: 59 Comments: 42
Summary: Giles makes Buffy hang out at a Renaissance Fair looking for demons in disguise.  Riley’s chip went bad, and instead of having it removed he had it replaced.  He left town to rejoin the Army at that point.  Spike doesn’t know what to do … hate the Slayer or love the Slayer.  (Set in Season 5 after “Out of My Mind” and before “Fool for Love”, but Riley left after “Out of My Mind”.  I decided to keep this story PG-13, and I will release other supplemental stories in a series that will have a higher rating.)

Living For Love by Tasha [NC-17] Likes: 59 Comments: 53
Summary: (Sequel to Revenge For Love) Set in an alternate season 3, the story picks up about a week after Revenge For Love ended. Faith and Wesley arrive in Sunnydale, and sparks fly all around. Identities and truths clash with lies and the past. Also thrown in are bits of chaos that Ethan Rayne would be proud to see. The PTB (Powers That Be) decide to interfere in things the rest of the Scoobies wish they wouldn't have. The Council still can't get it through their heads that Sunnydale is off limits. True loves grow, other relationships emerge, old enemies become new again, and new enemies are found. Through it all we shall learn that death is not the end of life for some, merely a new beginning.

Not Beneath Me by Tasha [NC-17] Likes: 380 Comments: 107
Summary:

Begins at the end of the episode "Fool For Love" (Season 5). What if Buffy hadn't kept completely silent when Spike sat down next to her? What if she had asked him to stay and opened up to him, even a little? How would that have changed the rest of Season 5?

Revenge For Love by Tasha [NC-17] Likes: 146 Comments: 48
Summary:

Angelus makes his way back to the mansion during "I Only Have Eyes For You" where the ghosts of old tragic lovers possessed him and Buffy. Angelus is furious at being made to feel "love" for the Slayer again. He heads out with Dru for a "vile kill" and comes across the Slayer who seems to be lost in thought. In his rage he drains most of her blood and leaves her to die. This is not the end of our heroine as Spike, who can now walk (unknown by Angelus and Dru), sees the fall of the Slayer. What will he do? Will he let her die? Or will he give her a new life to help him get revenge on his Sire?
