Third "book" in the series that started with "Spike’s Will Be Done", and continued with True Colors. Thanks go out to my two betas MadRog and t_geyer, without whom, no one other than me would be reading this.

An alternative view as to what might have happened in Entropy if Buffy had given all Willow's spellcasting paraphernalia to Spike for safe-keeping instead of throwing it out. This time round, Spike has his heart set on the idea of casting the "Will Be Done" spell before he even reaches The Magic Box. What will the vampire wish for? And knowing the luck our favourite vampire seems to have, should we be surprised when things don't go quite as he planned?
The first "Book" isn't bitey but later ones are.

Around five years after the events of 'Angels and Demons' we revisit the 'Spike's Will Be Done' universe. All is not well with our favourite vampire. Buffy has gone and he's been left to his own devices. Giles has one more ghost from the past that needs to be laid to rest, but when he tries to enlist Buffy's help, things don't go quite as he thought.

T_geyer asked for Spike and/or Wes for this year's birthday fic, so how could I refuse?

I asked my beta what sort of fic she might like for her birthday. Here's what she asked for...

" So, if you feel inspired, what appeals to me is either Spike or Wes. If you pick Spike and want him to be involved with someone, it should be Buffy; if you pick Wes, I don't have any strong feelings about it. I'm open as to whether it's BtVS or AtS, and when, but some of the things I enjoy are Spike irritating Angel (without too much Angel bashing), Spike and Joyce friendship, Wes running Angel Investigations or his own business, Wes or Giles succeeding where the Council fails, and kittens. It could be part of your current storyline, if you'd like. Mood: funny and/or action. Must have a happy ending."

I can't say I managed to cover all the bases but I had a decent try.

Set after the end of Angels and Demons

This follows on from where my fic "Spike’s Will Be Done" left off and is pretty much a sequel to that story, so things will only really make sense if you read it first. For those of you who are wondering why the spelling of colour in the title doesn't agree with standard UK usage like the rest of the story, it's because it refers to the song by Cyndi Lauper, who of course spelled it the American way in her lyrics. Thanks go out to my two betas MadRog and t_geyer, without whom, no one other than me would be reading this. Before they came on board, this was just one chapter running to two hundred plus pages. They helped to sort out a workable structure and are currently giving me the necessary prompting to expand on certain plot lines raised within the story so far.

Set mostly post Not Fade Away, with just a couple of the earliest scenes falling pre The Girl in Question. (I know, I know, but just imagine that Angel's spy was unconscious for a few days and that Andrew has maybe seen Buffy and the Immortal snuggling on the couch a whole once but you know how he likes to exaggerate.)

Spike and Angel receive party invitations from Ilona at the Rome office of W & H. When they find out that Giles and Willow will also be in attendance, Spike decides it's time to settle some scores on Fred's behalf. A somewhat belated birthday fic for, Luba, site administrator at The Crypt.

Jerusha asked for a Wes-fic, possibly set in the SWBD 'verse for her birthday, so that's what she got... in a way, at least.

Ten years have passed since Sunnydale fell. And for ten years, Buffy believed Spike to be dead and burried with it. Now that a new apocalypse comes a-knocking, she has to rely on him for help. But something just isn’t right with the vampire. Will she be able to figure out what it is before it is too late?

Spike saves Buffy from utter disaster, and he gets a reward he never expected. - after “First Date” with minor alterations (aka ignorations)

After years of struggling for a life of her own, the immortal Slayer is finally free from the demands of her friends and the Council. Will she be willing to go back in time and do it all over again, just for the chance to be with the vampire that was always meant to be her other half? An enemy from the future will give her the chance, if she wants it.

This story is complete, I'll post at least one chapter a week.

The title says it all.

Alternate Reality: Sunnydale born and bred, Buffy's life is the usual mix of school, friends and fun. Her suspicion that something is off about new arrival from L.A., Harmony Kendall, is proved right on Parent/Teacher Night. And the attractive stranger she'd approached at The Bronze proves to be more than she'd ever dreamt. Buffy's in over her head...but why is it so hard to walk away?

In honour of Elysian Fields' October Challenge month 2015 (in response to a challenge for more holiday fic), a holiday drabble for Epiphany, a Christian feast day on 6th January.

Post-Season 5, an alternate reality take on Season 6, but not so crazy-alternate that anyone's unrecognisable. Just lots of small tweaks that pack a punch - like the odd bit of honest communication amongst the Scoobies. Starts with Spike/Dawn friendship and builds from there.

Runner Up for Best Angst in round 30 of the SunnyD Awards

A/N September 2018: this story is now being re-posted with minor edits on Elysian Fields and AO3, as a prelude to new chapters. New chapters will be re-posted here, but the formatting is too much work to re-post the previous 50.

Season 6 Thanksgiving with Buffy and Dawn's aunts. Missing scenes between Wrecked and Gone, so canon with all that that entails.

This story has *vastly* more hits here than anywhere else I've posted it. Thank you so very, very much, Bloodshedverse, for loving it.
