Bookmarker's Notes
Cute little time travel trip to hang with Shakespeare and Queen Lizzie I. Lilachigh's Spuffy stories all seem to have an eerie fairytale-like quality to them, along with some quirky Britishisms. Enjoyed her "Strip Snap" (Spike gets Williamified) and "We Will Remember Them" (Buffy teams up with EvilSpike during WWII).

Summary
Just then, the last of the blood slipping from that boy into Spike, him and Dru grabbing for each other with their fangs in each other’s mouths, then walking hand in hand up Fifth Avenue, all the way back home, a little prayer croaks out of him, before he realizes enough to grab it back—Please. Please, let it be like this always.

Buffy and Spike both speed-run through four seasons of character development after being tortured in a hell dimension over summer break. Features illustrations, like a lot of ChaosNina's work.

Bookmarker's Notes
"Flickers" is a beautifully soft AU take on Angel's final season. The two sequels are smutty, but character driven. Dusty's writing is excellent, though extremely angsty. If you want to ugly-cry over Spuffy, read "The Time We Had" (blatantly borrowing from The Time Traveler's Wife) or "Gray" (devastating and dark story where Angel has a perfect moment of happiness as Spike's Best Man).
On the lighter side -- "I Do!" is a fun rewrite of Something Blue and a love letter to LiveJournal. "The Fairytale" is masterfully constructed and actually made me ship Spike/Fred against all reason.

Fun Oz and Spike bonding. Rollicking baby-fic sequel to the time-bending Buffy/William love story https://archiveofourown.org/works/914725/ Eurydice nails OCs and world building. Shoutout to the very bittersweet "Beg the Liquid Red" -- an AU story where Buffy was killed by Adam because she never helped post-chip Spike.

Summary
“Buffy?”
He almost never used to call her Buffy. Did he? Always Slayer, or pet, or love. Or like, he’d use her name, but it always sounded odd, in his mouth. All tender, touchy. Like, like he was making eye contact with her, just by saying it.
"Spike."
She wonders if it feels the same, for him. His name, her tongue.

Summary
More than a year post NFA, Buffy is in self-imposed exile. Her only solace is a robot that looks like the vampire who sacrificed himself in a cave under Sunnydale. Spike is unable to stay away, only he's fighting his own inner battles he doesn't want to burden her with. Impersonating a robot for a few days should be easy, right?

Summary
Originally a standalone fic, the first installment has now spawned a trilogy because I've lost control of my life! Part 1 is a season 4 era slow burn; parts 2 and 3 explore AU versions of s5 and s6, respectively, where spuffy are in an established relationship throughout.
Parts 2 and 3 are planned/mostly written! Other fics in this universe, including missing scenes, bonus content, and possibly an AU s7 (but don't hold me to it) may be to come.

I love everything about SummerFrost's stories, except that I can never remember the titles of my favorites!
"i think you'll stay" -- sweet coffeeshop AU where Buffy flirts with William by making terrible coffee drinks
"i will follow you into the dark" -- Buffy's heaven involved Spike and gardening
"nothing safe is worth the drive (follow you home)" -- personal struggles in the Scoobies' RV during s5
"(love me) as much as your heart can stand" -- Spuffy does You've Got Mail in a poetry chatroom -

Bookmarker's Notes
This reads like a classic paperback. William falls hopelessly in love with the mysterious, unpretentious nurse caring for his mother. When she disappears one day, he is devastated and inconsolable. He never forgets her, even after his own death and rebirth. 120 years later, Buffy Summers stumbles home wearing his lost love's clothes.

Summary
AtS S5. Things go a little off canon in Destiny and Buffy ends up with a whole lot more than she bargained for. Human? Demon? What makes Spike who he is and what’s a girl to do with the love of her life when he’s double the trouble?
This is what happens when Gort feeds one of Sunalso's plot bunnies after midnight. I wrote it, she beta'd it, and there might have been wine involved.
This is an entirely Spuffy fic, even though I had to slap that threesome tag on it. (Spike's Demon/Buffy/William) The only other warning is that I'm not very nice to Angel in this story.
