Winners by Ins (PG-13)
Fandom: BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER
Pairing: Willow/Tara, slight mention of Xander/Buffy
Why you must read this:
I like short character driven stories over long, plotty stories, I think that's evident by now.
Winners blew me away the first time I read it. Then I read several more times in one sitting. It's a short little story that looks unassuming but the ending sneaks up on you and then grabs you by the throat.
Set in Season 5, there's everything you'd find in the series: the Scoobies are together fighting and quipping, trying to keep Sunnydale from being overrun. Spike's playing both sides against each other. And Buffy's worrying over the implications of being a Slayer. The differences between her and them.
Most important of all, the Slayer always wins.
