Hey comm! I haven't written anything in ages, so I wrote something. Set during Spike's journey to find his soul. Basically angsty, but maybe something else as well. Spike is introduced to the First Evil... It actually saves his life?

The Best is Yet to Come
by Quinara.

Sometimes, all Spike wanted to do was stop. ( ... )

This is a companion piece for my other fic, Idealism. I don't know if this really works how I wanted it to, but it's at the point of either posting as-is or scrapping entirely. Still with the Kant ("Morality is not the doctrine of how we may make ourselves happy, but how we may make ourselves worthy of happiness."); set immediately after Dirty ( Read more... )

Don't tell any of the philosophers I know that I wrote for a Kant prompt. But do enjoy Spike in S6! During that slightly mythologised Time Of The Sex where the variances of Buffy's mood mean for all sorts of different scenarios... Where all the redemptionista stories are set.

Prompt as summary because I'll think of a proper one tomorrow: " ( Read more... )

So, I basically would have failed this month if I didn't do any poetry at all. It's Buffy in S6! Because obvs.

Prompted by Rafael Campo: The cemetery's moon a kind of drug / That makes forgetting possible.

This is for the prompt Suddenly the Oldest in the Nightclub, and is set in a London-based post-series universe where Dawn is either living with Buffy and Spike or just visiting. There's not much more to the set-up than that! It's meant to be a comedy, although it might need a warning for hipsters.

So, this prompt came out the way it was always doomed to - with a Final Fantasy VIII crossover! There is literally no need to have ever played Final Fantasy VIII, because Spike never has either.

Rating: PG-13 just for Spike swearing a lot.
Setting: AtS Season 5, but a bit AU, plus FFVIII disk three, as you might have guessed from the title.

This started as a response to 'Killer Tomatoes', I swear, but it ended up being more about the Olympics... And what happens when Spike starts to milk h/c after an apocalypse? I don't know. It's basically domestic Spuffy in my loosely constructed London futureverse, set a week ago last Saturday when Team GB managed to not fail at the athletics! ( Read more... )

So, I've been threatening for ages to try and write some S6 Spike POV poetry (ever since I wrote this fic, pretty much)... This doesn't really fill that promise, since it isn't an especially angry poem and it's not especially fine-crafted. But I'm interested by it, so I thought I'd post! Slightly stream-of-consciousness; Spike some time before ( Read more... )

I'm starting to feel like I should have more icons if I'm going to post in the comm this often... But! I wanted to do a fanmix, so here is one, for the prompt 'life or death', which I took to be about ghost!Spike in Angel S5. All links go to YouTube, apart from 'Tenant', because I can't find the studio version, and 'Nick in Reverse', which isn't ( Read more... )

Sometimes the prompts are just inspirational, aren't they? Here is a Buffy POV poem. An experiment in concrete stuff (but only mildly)! Super G, but maybe a bit gloomy; pretty much free of stuff that the AO3 has warnings for, though it does mention that Buffy was dead. Set probably S6.

I looked into the water. My destiny was drifting past.
