Summary
I should’ve gone for the Porsche I was eyeing off. Just enough space for you, me, and big sis…
Instead of the Winnebago, Buffy agrees to the Porsche, but it turns out the road trip is just the start of the adventure. Confronted with living in close quarters and having to adjust to a different dynamic, Buffy finds herself coming to terms with the changes Spike is attempting to make in himself. Meanwhile, Spike is struggling with those changes, but knows he can't stop loving her. All the while, there's still a Hell God out there, and they'd both die to protect Dawn.
Both Buffy and Spike know this won't end well, they just have no idea what that will look like.

Summary
Buffy's mom is dating this new guy, Ted. He's nice, polite, and has a good job. He also has a tendency to fly into uncontrollable fits of rage whenever Buffy does something he doesn't like. Everything in Buffy's life feels like it's falling apart and Buffy has no power to stop it. All she can do is hide out in the library with her sister so that they don't have to spend any more time at home with Ted than they already do.
Faith's living with Ms. Calendar. She took her in after Faith ran away from home. Ms. Calendar is dating a new guy, the school librarian. He's British and fancy and seems nice enough but Faith doesn't trust him. She knows from experience—years of having to put up with her mom's shitty boyfriends—that even the nicest seeming guys could be putting up a front. Ms. Calendar may be a smart lady, but Faith knows that she doesn't have the experience Faith has at identifying creeps. So she's going to make sure this guy's safe. And if it means hanging out in the library, the place where Buffy Summers, the hottest girl Faith has ever laid eyes upon, seems to basically be living in nowadays, well, that's just an unexpected perk.
No Powers AU.

Summary
He can say with completely confidence, that as he walked in to biology, a class that usually made his insides crawl with all manner of prickly disgusted feelings, he was thinking of nothing else but of how smart and cool he felt reassuring Willow that there was nothing to worry about.
He could honestly say he had forgotten he was trans until the sudden chill of cranked up early September air conditioning hit his shoulders and he realized something was very wrong.
Or
The 'walking into class in your underwear' scene from S1Ep10 if Xander was trans.

Summary
Out of all individual Buffy episodes, the most frequently fanfic’ed is Halloween. Of those fanfics, a lot of them turn Xander into a girl and then just have Xander ‘get used to it’ with no further explanation. Whiiiiich seems a little problematic. Still, it’s worth considering:
How would the series actually change if Xander was trans the whole time?
I’ve read a few ‘what if Buffy was trans’ fics, and a couple ‘what if Faith was trans’ fics, but I haven’t actually seen many (or any) fanfics that explore the Xander option.
Xander is very insecure about his manliness. Very insecure. This is a story about one possible reason.
So, Halloween will be a catalyst for this fic, but it’s not where it starts.
It all starts with the new girl at Sunnydale High.Series

Summary
A look into what made made Xander who he is in BtVS. Specifically focusing the home life and emotional states of Xander Harris.
Xander has always been an important character to me because of how broken he is yet still continues to try and do what he thinks is right. This story is about Xander and his struggle to accept that family doesn't always have your best interests in mind.

Summary
AH/AU. On the hit show Belle South the off screen drama is often hotter than the on-screen action. The toughest role Spike has had to play isn't the one that won him an Emmy, it's the one where he has to pretend every day that he isn't in love with leading lady Buffy Summers. Buffy, America's Sweetheart, has no idea that under her co-star's bad-boy exterior his heart beats only for her. When a storm throws everything into chaos and Buffy discovers her life isn't what she thought it was, will she be able to see through the lies and find the love that's been there waiting for her?

Summary
Working at Helen’s Kitchen can drain the life out of you; too bad Buffy doesn’t have much of a life left. So really, it shouldn’t be a surprise that running into Spike is enough to throw what little she still has up in the air. When a chance encounter sends the Slayer and vampire spiraling into the bowels of hell, their only hope of escape is each other. Will the bond they forge there be enough to survive? Or will it destroy them both?

Summary
“Angelus.”
His grandsire grinned at him from the doorway. “Spike.” He said, sounding for all the world like he was pleasantly surprised.
He was hauling around a sweet-smelling bundle of youth– a fresh-faced little girl whose thundering blood reeked of the unripened energy Angelus had always been fondest of before he’d been saddled with a soul. She was shivering with fear, fumigating the room with it. Her big blue eyes darted between her captor and the beast before her.Laughter burbled up out of Spike’s throat. Disbelief. After a century of being a great, big, useless sod… “I'll be damned.”
OR:
The Monks caught wind of the fact that Glory had gotten strong enough to start physically manifesting in Ben's body, so they performed the ritual a few years early.
Having Dawn around as flesh and blood instead of smoke and mirrors changes things.

I keep having the strangest dream. Every night it's the same thing: a dark room, a big bed, and a silent vampire that I can feel, but not see. I'd be wigged, except it's just a dream, right? It'll be a cold day in hell before I ever willingly sleep with a vampire again...

Summary
AU. Spike killed his third Slayer, but Dru was already dust. He's been lost, but when his supper turns out to be more than he bargained for, it leaves him hungry for something else instead. And Buffy? She's just hungry.
Takes place in an alternate universe in which Buffy isn't the Slayer (yet), just a girl with rotten luck. Spike is still an evil vampire with a big black car, leather jacket, and the capacity to be much more than just a demon.
