A human Buffy wakes up in a mental hospital after her dive off Glory's tower. She recovers her sanity and begins to build a life in the real world. But is it real?

AN: To provide a little more explanation and warning than might be visible in the summary. This grew out of a "what if" discussion on someone's LJ, in which it was asked "What if Buffy's sojourn in the mental hospital during Normal again didn't end?" or "What if it was real?" and some other possible scenarios. I was intrigued and this story was born. I'll be posting a chapter a day until this site has caught up with TSR and my Live Journal.

Their kind of normal looks a lot like yours.

After a spectacular defeat at the end of NFA, resulting in all life in this dimension ending, the Powers have decided to give the dimension one more chance. They decide our favorite blonde vampire is just the guy for the job. Numbed from recent events Spike thinks they've gone barmy, he's not a hero but the Powers insist. What's a souled vamp to do when he is sent back in time?

“Wordlessly she reached for him, like a child reaches in the darkness for comforting arms, desperate for something, anything, to take this terror away.” My version of the evening at the Bronze, at the end of Tabula Rasa.

A sequel to "Slayer's Night Off", this fic picks up the next evening. Don't think it's necessary to have read the first one, but it coudn't hurt. Spike and Buffy find themselves working out a relationship now that feelings have been exposed, and Riley turns into even more a misguided bad guy.

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!

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...

Takes place before "Crush." A game of Truth or Dare goes horribly wrong when Dawn dares Buffy to visit a certain vampire, doing something she normally never would, but the Slayer can't possibly pass up on a challenge.

Spike appeared in Angel's office nineteen days after the collapse of the Hellmouth to find Buffy already in Europe. This is the story of what happened in between. Seven drabbles and one double drabble.

I think this is the very last schmoop fic to post here. I'll hold off on posting anything else while everyone recovers from the recent spammage. :) This is a short (schmoopy) season six that takes place before there has been kissage to spoil the growing friendship.

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...??

"There's nothing tender about the night." Buffy is not the slightest bit in love with easeful death.

One shot fic based in the middle of Spike and Buffy's season six 'relationship'. Buffy decides it's time to give Spike a treat...

During the episode 'Wrecked', Buffy draped garlic all over her room and held a crucifix on her bed while she waited to see if Spike would come to her. Well, in this fic ... he did.
