Far Down Within the Dim West by Shaye (rated R)

Fandom: BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER
Pairing: Anya/Tara, Tara/Spike
Length: longish one-shot
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] fourteenlines 
Author Website: Fourteen Lines

Why this must be read:


Because it's so unrelentingly dark.  Goes AU mid-season 6 and shows a world where Tara, Spike, and Anya are spiraling into ugly self-destruction in a completely believable way.  I am not a fan of darkfic but this is good.

What frightens her most, when she thinks too long about it, isn't that this happened at all. Sooner or later, something had to give. After all, with a few notable exceptions, they were only human. And such children, really. What frightens her most is how simple it all seemed. A chain of events, every little piece, grim in its own right, following fast and faster until it was all out of control.

Whoa. Hey, thanks! Not what I was expecting to find when I logged on today.

And because the contact address on the webpage is years out of date, I can be reached at my LJ address, fourteenlines@livejournal.com. (Y'know, just in case.)

Thanks again!
