Will the creature keeping them in the story stick to script, or will the plot thicken in unexpected ways?

Summary: Buffy and books are usually non-mixy things. Not because she doesn't like reading; she would if she had time, or so she tells herself. But a slayer's life doesn't leave much room for the enjoyment of literature, not when there are so many other things to do like study, slay, try to find time to spend with her friends and boyfriend, and wrangle her kid sister who just arrived in town. But an encounter with a strange librarian and a special edition of Pride and Prejudice just for Buffy is about to change that. When Buffy, her friends, and a few enemies find themselves trapped in the plot of Jane Austen's beloved novel, the only way out is to embrace their roles and reach the end--or be trapped indefinitely. It doesn't help that they all keep forgetting their old lives in Sunnydale. Well, almost everyone. Spike seems immune. Moreover he seems to know the plot like the back of his hand--and he isn't happy to discover he's been cast as Mr. Darcy. Especially when he finds out the Slayer is playing Elizabeth Bennet.

Summary: William Pratt is a Watcher-In-Training in 1880 tasked with helping his uncle train the current Slayer, Katherine Mears, in London. The three of them are close, but William worries his Slayer is lonely. Believing he can secure a match with Cecily Fairhall and bring the pleasure of her company into their tight little circle, he sets out to make his feelings for her known.
But the Aurelians are in town, and one fateful night changes the course of William's life--or unlife, as it were--and puts him on a darker, more destructive path than anyone could have ever imagined. Can he ever turn back to the light (or at least the twilight)? Or will his hatred for all things Watcher-shaped and his love for a good Slayer slaying keep him firmly in the dark?
And can a plucky young Slayer with family, friends, and a habit of throwing the book by the wayside in favor of doing things her own way reawaken something long dormant in Spike's undead, unbeating black heart?
In this alternate universe, William the Watcher is turned and becomes the Slayer of Watchers as much as the Slayer of Slayers. This will be a pretty dark fic at turns, ngl. I'll update warnings, ratings, and other tags as I go. I'm aiming for a HEA/HFN, but... it's gonna be tough ride and it'll take a long time to get there. Buckle up, folks. Things are going to get bumpy!
