HUGE SPUFFY FANFIC REC LIST------A---J

INFLUENCE OF DEMONS --------- by: Gabrielleabelle
http://gabrielleabelle.livejournal.com/39696.html
Goes AU after S5's Checkpoint. Five years ago, Buffy and Spike fell into a portal to a dimension ruled by demons. Finally, reunited, their goal is to get back home. However, the years in this dimension have changed them. Spike's long isolation keeps him distant, and Buffy's enforced life at a brothel has caused her to forget the Slayer she used to be. Somehow, they'll have to find themselves again to defeat a powerful enemy and make it home.
Buffy and Spike are a lot darker than you're used to in most fics but the story is fascinating.

BITTERSWEETS SERIES ----By: HERSELF
http://www.echonyc.com/~stax/Buffy/herself/index.htm
Every Spuffy fan should make reading the entire Bittersweet series mandatory reading..
-NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART
In this multiple-award-winning novel-length series, Herself intimately examines the emotional complexities of Spike, Buffy, and their relationship ... the good and the bad, the joyful and the destructive ... the sex, the love, the fear, and the hate. Within this series, Herself creates a detailed, intimate world of emotional tangles. Not for the weak of heart, but most definitely worth the journey! (Romantic, angsty, joyful drama)
Rating: NC-17 for graphic sexuality and violence. This story also contains minor elements of slash and sado-masochism, which may bother some readers.
Length: Novel-length series, consisting of 15 separate stories ( and a couple of fic extras) intended to be read in sequence. Starting with ‘ALL WRONG’ and ending (well not really) with the magnificent novella “WHERE THEY HAVE TO TAKE YOU IN’.
OUTSTANDING MULTI-AWARD WINNING SERIES.
FORSAKE ME NOT ----- By: HERSELF
http://www.echonyc.com/~stax/Buffy/herself/forsake.html
11th story in BITTERSWEET SERIES--------- Since a devastating accident, Buffy has shut herself away from everyone. Neither Spike or her daughter ‘s love can reach her. One day it all comes crashing down around them and only a miracle can save them.
Shades of a twisted ‘It’s a Wonderful Life ’ and ‘A Christmas Carol’.
ONE OF MY FAVORITES FROM THE BITTERSWEET SERIES. IT BROKE MY HEART A DOZEN TIMES.
WHAT SHE DESERVES ------By: HERSELF
And sequel: LOVINGKINDNESS ------By: HERSELF
What She Deserves----
http://www.nothinglikethesun.com/Other-Fics/What-She-Deserves.shtml
After all the turmoil with the last apocalypse and Spike taking off for parts unknown, Buffy decides to take a road trip to New York. Funny the people you run into in the big city. Even the ones you hoped you’d never see again.
Deals with a very different take on Spike gaining his soul and the aftermath. Beautifully dark and disturbing.
THE FIRST HERSELF STORY I EVER READ. I BOUGHT MY COMPUTER SO I COULD READ IT IN TOTAL. WEBTV COULDN’T HANDLE IT. *** NOT PART OF BITTERSWEET SERIES
LOVINGKINDNESS-----
http://www.nothinglikethesun.com/Other-Fics/Lovingkindness.shtml
Lovingkindness: What is love? Must it be "deserved"? What are its boundaries? What are its rewards and costs? What responsibilities does it create, in both the lover and the beloved? Herself explores these questions and more in this gorgeous, evocative sequel to What She Deserves. This time around, the story focuses primarily on Spike and his relationship with a third character, while Buffy is somewhat peripheral, though still crucial. At heart, the fic is still really about Spike's feelings for Buffy ... it's just also much much bigger than that. I think I may adore this sequel even more than the phenomenally wonderful original fic! (Angsty angst angst angst)
Rating: NC-17 for disturbing sexuality. This story contains quite a bit of slash, which may bother some readers.
Length: Approximately 51,500-word short story Spoilers: Through Ep. 6.22, "Grave"

AU- ALL HUMAN---What’s the result when a womanizing genius and a prudish workaholic are forced together in every way with no choice but to deal with each other 24/7?

FREEDOM----------by: Icemink
http://www.nocturnal-light.net/fanfiction/story/91/Freedom/all
Set in the world of The Wish. Instead of snapping Buffy's neck, the Master keeps her imprisioned so that another Slayer can't be called and so that he will be free to carry out his plans. In the meantime he's called the last of the Aurelius line, Drusilla and Spike, to help him run his new kingdom in Sunnydale..
This story surprised me. Interesting plot twists and angst galore.
CHAIN ------By: IRFIKOS
http://www.allaboutspike.com/fic.html?id=443
"So there were these guys who were like, total supervillains, right? One night they captured this vampire called Spike, who had a microchip in his head, and held him prisoner in their secret lair. See, they'd figured out a way to fix the chip so that Spike would have to do their bidding and stuff." "But things didn't quite go according to plan."
VERY DARK.
