Looking for a fanfic

Feb 06 2011 12:25 am   #1Hanne 
Hey! I've been searching for this fanfic for years, and hope you'll be able to help me.

Spuffy. Spike is back in town with a new ability. He can transfer Buffy's power to him by looking at her (or being physically connected if I remember correctly). There's a bad guy in town and they need to work together to defeat him. 

Sorry I don't remember more. It's been ages since I read it, and I would love to re-read it. Any help finding it would be appreciated.

I'm making this the new fic seeking list for fics that are not AH. Please use it from now on, or until it gets too long and we start a new one. As with the other one, I will try to make sure it stays visible on the forum list.

I may be way off base on this but this makes me think of The Linkverse series by Dee Bradfield [1. Shades of Grey, 2. In A Different Light, 3. True Colors, 4. Equinox]

Spike messes around with some psychic stuff, comes back to town and gets connected to Buffy.

I'm looking for a FF myself, reformatted my computer a couple weeks ago and neglected to save my bookmarks across the reformatting.

The FF I'm currently looking for is...I believe...a spin on the "Normal Again" episode where Buffy gets stung by the demon and thinks that her life is just one big hallucination.  In the story I am looking for, she gets stung but just ends up being mentally handicapped or something.  Spike ends up taking care of her and Dawn while they try to figure out what is wrong and in the end I think he ends up disappearing with her to Africa to get her healed via the demon who gave him a soul in the show.

Ringing any bells? Please and Thank you in advance if someone knows what I'm talking about!

[Update 3/21/2011] Found it, I'll leave this post here in case anyone else is looking for the same.  The story is So Pretty by the bloody and can be found onElysian Fields.

Looking for Spike/Buffy/Drusilla stories, I read several Kari Mouke stories (Acting on Instinct, Taking the Initiative, and The Two Janes) and am now hooked. Anybody know where I can find more?

If anyone else is looking for these, here are links to the 3 I mentioned above.
Acting on Instinct  - Buffy gets a letter concerning a captive Drusilla, she goes off to save her (post-Chosen)
Taking the Initiative - Buffy, Spike, and Drusilla are captured by the Initiative (post-Anne in LA)
[Alternate Link: Taking the Initiative]
The Two Janes - Spike leaves Buffy after defeating the First Evil because she is still hiding their relationship. Drusilla finds Buffy and saves her (post-Chosen AU)

Here's another Kari Mouke story, Spike/Buffy/Drusilla/Angel:
Primal - Ethen Rayne is up to no good. (AU Halloween)

[Update 3/21/2011 - Added Alternate Link to Taking the Initiative and Link to Primal]

I keep bumping this so it stays visible, and what do I find above it on the forum? Yep, two more requests for fics.  *sigh*  Mabe I should change the name of the thread? (To something subtle like "This is the seeking fics thread"?) Ah well, at least no one has asked for AH fics lately. Guess I should bump that one up again too.

Can you sticky the thread so it always stays at the top? Sometimes that helps.

Not to my knowledge. I'll have to ask Dia, but I doubt it. All we ever done is bump threads that we want to have visible all the time.  She has the list set so that the most currently commented on, or the newest are at the top.

Anyone know where Acting on Instinct might be?  The link above doesn't work.  Would love to read that one!  cherylann.mcguire@yahoo.com

I noticed there is a sticky thread in the Wishlist section. The "Read Before Posting" so I'd say it could probably be implemented easily enough by Dia or whoever is the main runner of the forums.

Sorry Cheryl, since I posted that the link stopped working for me also :( I should have saved a copy, it was really good.
