Fic ideas
Ok guys, so far we have 10 amazing authors signed up to write on this round of spuffy tennis. But we can always use more, so pass the word out to your writer friends or anyone you think would be interested in giving writing a go. And send them on over!
Also, we need to decide on a storyline. I've had a look in the spuffy fantasy idea factory and found a few ideas for au fics i thought you might like. But please, if any of you have ideas feel free to comment with them and i'll add them to this post for everyone to decide which idea they like best. But so far, here are the ideas i found:
Idea 1
Twenty-two years ago Joyce and Hanks Summers gave up their first born child. They were newly married and Hank felt that it was best to concentrate on his upcoming career. Five years later they have another daughter Dawn who they raise. After divorcing Hank, Joyce moves Dawn away from the fast life of Las Vegas to the suburbs. Everything is great life is happy happy then Dawn gets sick. She needs a donor and the only possible match is the sister she's never met.
Buffy was taken from her abusive home when she was a kid and bounced from forster homes until she was eighteen. For the past few years she's been working as an exotic dancer at one of the hottest clubs in Las Vegas. She's a single mom trying to survive with her three year old daughter Kendra the best way she knows how. After locating her, family friend Spike is sent to bring her back. Can he convince her to help save her sister? Will she accept the love and family that he is offering or will she try to continue hiding behind a painful past?
Idea 2
Buffy owns a horse ranch in Kentucky. She been left a lot of money when her parents died but never used any of it she wanted to make it on her own. She makes her living by using her ranch as a B&B, she teachs the guest to ride and stuff of the like.
Willow and Xander want to chear their Friend William/Spike up after Drusilla left him. So... where to they take him for a change a pace? Buffy B&B (duh!?)
Must haves:
1- Tara working for Buffy as the cook and Willow falling for her
2- Anya working for Buffy with the money stuff, Xander falling for her
3- Buffy teaching spike to ride and him falling off and making an ass out of himself
Idea 3
Hank and Joyce Summers are self-employed business owners, who hire the children of their employees to do odd jobs during the summer. Their daughter, Buffy, is in charge of delegating jobs for the other teenagers. When they hire a new manager/foreman/whatever else there could be in their business, Rupert Giles, he brings along his deviant son Spike to keep him out of trouble. Spike and Buffy meet and sparks fly (you choose whether they like or hate each other). Eventually, they hook up, but Buffy's parents disapprove of her dating someone like Spike, so they keep their relationship a secret. Drama ensues.
Suggestions:
Willow [Buffy's friend from school]- secretary
Xander [Willow and Buffy's friend form other summers, knew Spike form before]-(you chose his job)
Anya [accountant's (person who buys things for the company) daughter
So there are 3 ideas that i thought were cool. BUT these aren't neccessarily the stories we have to choose from. If you like any of these in particular and would like one of them to be our tennis fic, please comment and say which one.
But if yoy have an idea that you think would be better, feel free to leave that in a comment too :)
