It's 1880 and Elizabeth Cecily “Buffy” Underwood is forced to choose between her duty as the Chosen One and the young man who passionately loves her

AU Post Season 2. When Buffy took off for LA after sending Angel to hell, the events of Anne never took place and she stayed in LA... until she finds out that things aren't going so well at home...a new Big Bad has taken over Sunnydale, with Spike at her side...Buffy returns home to help defeat this new danger... but which side is Spike *really* on?

Sequel to Second Youth. Happy season seven! Buffy and her happy family deal with those that would wish to tear them apart: government agencies, the Watcher’s Council and a rogue demon hunter.

Rewrite of Season 6--A very different Buffy returns from the afterlife, and things are going to get really interesting....

Much Thanks to my excellent betas, Megan_Peta (through chapter 12) and BloodyTearsOfLife Have faith, this will be a bitey fic--it'll just take a while. All the usual disclaimers apply, re: Joss Whedon, ME, etc.

Feedback is greatly appreciated.

Based on the Pink Floyd song "Learning To Fly"--all disclaimers to rights to this song

She'd gone far far away from Sunnydale. From herself. Her name. Her calling. She didn't want any contact with the old life. Much less him. That pain-in-the-ass vampire. "Spike." She punched at the eyes floating before her; but he ducked and she pitched forward. He caught her before she fell face down in the filth. "What is this?" She wrenched herself free. "Since when do you help?" Set immediately post-season 2. Buffy's run all the way to NY, and encounters a Spike who feels he's made a bad bargain.

"Their stares penetrated Spike the way he'd penetrated them, and sucked him nearly as dry." A sequel to What She Deserves. After his reunion with Buffy in NYC, Spike returns to Sunnydale to find that things between them aren't quite what he'd supposed. Spoilers only through s6.

Set in Season 3, after Lover’s Walk, Vampire Council decides to punish those responsible for the state the Aurelius line is in and kidnap Buffy and Spike. Bloodshedverse challenge #87

Buffy and a very insane Spike are both dreaming of the same young girl. She's in trouble and calling to them. Through compassion and resolve, Buffy's determined for Spike find his way and help save the girl before it's too late...

The sequel to The Hardest Thing in the World. Now that the Scoobies know Buffy was in heaven, they're doing all they can to make things better for her... but the method they choose may be more than Spike can handle.

Three months after Chosen, Buffy is still mourning the loss of Spike. When the amulet he wore is retrieved from the wreckage at Sunnydale, Buffy inadvertently wishes for William Pratt. Buffy struggles with her grief while William learns to adjust to the modern world and finds out about who he would have become in this time.

In an effort to frighten the muse into finishing this story - I'm going to start posting it. This is the fourth and last in the series that began with Loves Lost, continued with Love Awakened and Love Continued.

Some not terribly original plot concepts, including some I’ve used before, but hopefully an original take on those ideas. Buffy has come to LA to find amnesiatic Spike who is apparently the only survivor of the battle with the Senior Partners’ demon army. Disclaimer: The characters belong to Joss Wheedon and probably some big, scary corporations. Alas, they aren’t mine. But I play with them, ‘cause the man said we could.

Goes AU right in the middle of 'Dead Things'. Buffy is appalled by what she has done to Spike and goes about trying to change her life for the better.

An accidental wish makes Buffy switch places with her future self. Winner of Best Alternate Reality and nominated for Best Sex at the Fang Fetish Awards! Thank you to all the mods and everyone who nominated and voted for me! Nominated in several categories at the Spark and Burn Awards!

What if Buffy didn't take that dive off of the tower in The Gift? What if she saw Spike for the man he was becoming and spent the next year without the depression caused from her being pulled from heaven? Could they have progressed to love on a natural course. Begins at climax of The Gift then AU.
