    Summary

    Post-Chosen, Buffy's struggling to adjust to the new status quo of her life: no longer the only Slayer, but still The Slayer. The one in charge. Propelled to investigate a strange blip on the magical radar, Buffy finds herself in Duluth, Minnesota and much more than she bargained for.

    Meanwhile, Spike has come back from the brink himself, only to be entirely at loose ends. No purpose, no guiding light, he gets himself out of LA and into a mess of, well, not hot water, that's for certain.

    AKA, Buffy and Spike reunite in my home state and they hate it.

    Written for EF's 2026 Challenge Month, answering werehorse's challenge of Spuffy vs. YOUR favorite local cryptid, which I've had my eye on for months. This has been a lovely excuse to get Spuffy to Minnesota.

    Summary

    Buffy just wants to support Xander's new job at the college bar, post breaking up with Riley. It's not her fault she gets roped into drinking beer that turns her brain back a few dozen centuries.

    Of course a chipped, bored Spike is hanging out at Giles' place when the scoobies bring her there to sleep it off. And of course Cavewoman Buffy is obsessed with him, because why would anything go right in Buffy's life?

    Summary

    Buffy loves Spike, even if she won’t admit it, and everyone knows that Spike is still in love with Buffy. No one approves—but don’t worry. Angel and Giles have an idea for how to deal with the problem. Too bad every curse comes with a loophole…

    Summary

    Buffy is ashamed of him, Spike knows. But when no one else is around, she touches him like she could love him.

    (In which Spike makes a damn good cup of coffee, watches a sunrise or two, and plays confidant to a Slayer who thinks dying to save the world would've been easier than this.)
