Response to BSV challenge #374. Set about a week after the events of Something Blue but before the beginning of Hush. Buffy has reluctantly agreed to vampsit while Giles is out for the evening, and is desperate for something to distract her from the annoyingly perceptive vampire and the memories of their brief engagement. Kind of fluffy, silly, and smutty, with a smattering of insight . . . and sprinkles! Thanks bunches to always_jbj for betaing. Banner by Tanit

Unable to sleep, Buffy once again finds herself sharing a cup of hot chocolate with Spike. --Sequel to Hot Chocolate.

During Dead Things, Spike muses on his experiences with bondage and through the years and its effects on who he has become. Spike/Dru, Spike/Buffy. Rated NC-17 for heavy BDSM and bloodplay. Small spoilers for Fool for Love and Dead Things.

As always, huge thanks to Alwaysjbj for her excellent beta work and unbelievable support.

A depressed and distraught Buffy gets herself into more trouble than she can handle, which works out just fine for Angelus. The challenge is whether Angelus can successfully manipulate people and events in order to get what he wants. But just what is Angelus striving for, and where do Buffy, Spike and Drusilla fit in? Picks up mid-season two sometime after “I Only Have Eyes for You.” Answer to a Bloodverse challenge, which wanted Buffy/Spike/Angelus. After a long torturous route, will eventually turn Spuffy. Thanks to OracleHolly for the Beta. **WINNER OF JUDGE'S CHOICE AWARD ROUND THREE AT FANG FETISH AWARDS* * Nominated Round Four* (Thanks)

The games played between a Slayer and a vampire are never simple. Throwing in a scalding hot sexual attraction only adds fire to the flames. Spuffy smut written for the prompt "jury duty."

A short continuation of the episode starting in the church. Ijust wanted a little bit of completion that was not really given in the show.

Response to Caroline’s Challenge #21 on Sinister Attraction. It’s fluff. Someone decides it would be a good idea to turn Anya in to a Bunny, to get her over her fear. Set after Older and Far away.

Buffy thinks about Spike, blood and pain. Dark Prompt 04 of Dark Fic table

Broken: What happens afterwards when Buffy is unable to stop Spike in Seeing Red. Ravished: Spike reflects on his actions. Fics ARE DARK!!!!!!

A slightly different twist on "Crush". What would've happened if Spike truly meant, "Bloody well through playing"?

For Always_jbj. This is my idea about what would happen if Spike had made a couple different decisions that night during Smashed. Going to post whole story in one chapter.

She's back... She's bad... But he's badder and on his way to her.

This is a one-shot, a sort of "Cold flames" in reverse as it's more from Spike's POV.

For Twisted Spuffy community When Spike’s Valentine’s gift is spurned by Dru for Daddy’s gift, it’s the last straw and he gets a plan to make things right. He learns the hard way that magic is something not to be taken lightly.

Set at the very end of Season 2 with an alternate ending to the last episode. After Drusilla dies, Spike goes feral over the loss of his sire and drags off the injured Slayer. His demon decides it wants to keep her, make her his. He nurses her back to health, but she has no idea what he has planned for her once she gets healthy enough. Woohoo, BoMB was nominated at the Lost in Spike Awards. And the Spark and Burn Awards. It won a Judges Choice at LSA! My first something!
