Five classic Angel/Spike stories, arranged from shortest to longest.
Victrola by
hello_spikey. William, Angelus and that terrible modern music.
Summerbreeze by
doyle_sb4. Post-NFA Angel and shanshued Spike. Naturally, lots of angst. PG-13.
Breathing Lessons by
ruuger. Post-NFA, Angel wakes up at a hospital after the last battle. Angsty-fluffy hurt/comfort. PG-13.
When in Rome by Annie Sewell-Jennings. After finding crazy Spike in the school basement Buffy asks Angel for help. R-rated.
Nothing Ventured (or
AO3 link) by Glassdarkly (
shapinglight). One possible explanation of why Spike went from being sweet and resigned about him and Buffy breaking up in Hell's Bells to all "You love me really, you just won't admit it to yourself," in Normal Again, because there's not much in the way of explanation in the show. NC-17.
