This is a response to the challenge set by Kudagirl. Contains dialogue from "Older and Far Away" and for the purposes of the story, the demon that Buffy gets the sword from does not exist. This is Dawn POV for a lot of it. Thoughts are in italics. Any spelling mistakes in the speech are not actually spelling or grammar mistakes. You'll understand when you get there.

Set during *Once More with Feeling*    Spike finally got a few things off his chest and told Buffy to take a hike...  But, he didn't really mean it!

Prequel to Not Quite Home for the Holidays. Early season five, still adjusting to life with the Initiative’s chip, loathing his unlife, and resisting the after affects of a dream, can Spike hold out against the lure of the easy money? And just what does it take to get him to accept who it is that he really wants - hint: it's not Harmony. Note: I think I posted this chapter before, and then deleted it when I realized I had never posted the Holiday fic here - so if the first chapter seems familiar, it is.

Written for the Choose Your Author ficathon - my prompt called for a Something Blue fic in which Spike and Buffy go a little further than in canon.... smut was called for...

Spuffy rewrite of S2's Reptile Boy. Spike's on a Slayer hunt at Dru's crazed behest, and seeing the Slayer at the mercy of the frat boys gives him ample opportunity to take advantage of her body, and her blood. But, once tasted, the Slayer changes his world forever. He's buggered, right enough...

After the Sunnydale Hellmouth fell before her eyes, Buffy had thought that her life would change. Time passed, six months to be exact, and Buffy found she was wrong. She tries, but just can't seem to let go, although one drunken phone call could be just the change Buffy is looking for.

This was a challenge fic from the yahoo group We Band of the Bugggered these ten requirements had to be in the story: 1) tattoo of Hagalaz Rune 2) snow globes 3) A malfunctioning cherry picker 4) snickerdoodle cookies, baked and eaten 5) Borsch painting 6) A mystical key (Not Dawn!) 7) A broken martini glass 8) A peacock feather 9) A latin/English dictionary 10) Bunnies ~~ Put them all in a blender and out comes a Spuffy romp with scoobies and Viking Gods apleanty.

Buffy is breaking down after Spike's death at the Hellmouth, and runs away to Toronto. When Spike comes back from the dead, can he and some of the Scooby gang find Buffy before The Immortal does? And what exactly is Buffy hiding...??

Set post-Becoming. AU from there. Buffy runs into Spike while she's trying to hide from her life in Sunnydale.

Sequel to Another Life, third in the Rest of Our Lives series. Fourteen years after Another Life, the Scoobie gang is together again to celebrate the achievement of their next generation.

My own spin on ‘Normal Again.’ Instead of an institution, Buffy’s alternate reality seems to be an almost normal, happy life, complete with a white picket fence and a not so un-dead hubby! Nominated for Best Episode Stealer at Love's Last Glimpse Awards! Nominated for Best BtVS Rewritten and Best General UST at the Spuffy Awards! THANK YOU!!

Set in the world of The Wish. Buffy killed the Master instead of the other way around. She's settled down in Sunnydale and is getting used to Slaying when an old enemy comes into her life with news of an apocalypse in Europe--and a plan to stop it. The problem is that once they leave Sunnydale, absolutely nothing goes according to plan, including homocidal Watchers, rogue witches, and vampires who just don't know when to quit...

Buffy's already turned Spike away. But when her worst nightmare befalls her, she's got nowhere else to turn than towards him.

AU version of Damaged. Buffy comes to L.A. instead of Andrew and discovers that Spike is still alive.

The attraction, the desire to dance, was always there - right from their first meeting - but have you ever wondered how often they met and never told. This is a record of all those times up to Dawn’s arrival.
