Whose Reality? by Saber Shadowkitten, NC17
EEK! Last day and I'm behind. I guess that means I'll have to sign up again for old skool Buffy & Angel fics. :)
Fandom: BtVS
Pairing: Willow/Angel, Buffy/Spike, Willow/Buffy (and Buffy/Angel, Willow/Oz, Buffy/Spike...it's complicated)
Length: 10000 or so
Author on LJ:I'm not sure she's still around...
Author Website: http://www.sabershadowkat.com/
Why this must be read: Once upon a time there was this wonderfully prolific Buffy fic writer named Saber who wrote het and slash, fluff and BDSM, and just about everything in between. She created a wonderful Willow/Angel series called "Abracadabra" set in the middle of a Season 3 in which Buffy and Angel did not get back together. It began as friendship and became a lot, lot more, including an exploration of Willow's magic and Angel's soul.
Then Saber took her own series and twisted it on its head. In the thirteenth story of the series Willow is captured by the current Master vampire of Sunnydale and she uses her growing ability with magic to bring back Angelus (and Saber has a rather unique take on the role of his soul). This is where the fun begins. There are two endings to the story. If you enjoy reading about dominant females and submissive males and vampire loving, go to the alternative ending "Power Play" because two stories later "Whose Reality?" shows up.
"Whose Reality" is one of those stories I adore--it meshes a fanfic world with the "real one" of the tv show. Saber's creations, her versions of Buffy, Spike, Willow and Angelus, enter season three of BtVS and a wild ride ensues of mistaken identities and humor and sex.
So, read the whole series or skip straight to "Whose Reality?". They're all wonderful.
Halfway down the page is the Abracadabra Series
Angel was on his way back from the shower when he heard someone calling his name. Dressed in a loose pair of running pants, he rubbed the towel over his hair as he entered the main room. "Faith, hi," he said. "What can I do for you?"
"Angel," Faith said, her eyes running over his muscular, bare chest and the play of muscles as he used the towel. "Um, can I talk to you a sec?"
"Sure," Angel replied, gesturing to a side room. He followed her in and sat across from her, dropping the towel off to the side. Patiently, he waited for her to begin.
"You know how you told me that once you kill someone, it changes everything?" Faith asked. She held out her hands. They were covered in dark blood. "It's not human, but..."
"Are you ok?" Angel asked softly, concern reflecting from his eyes.
"Angel, I'm so scared," Faith said, her voice choked up. She scooted forward and wrapped her arms around his neck, hugging him to her.
"Shh, everything is going to be fine," Angel comforted, rubbing her back. Faith released him slowly, pulling back so she was staring into his eyes. She leaned in to kiss him and he veered back sharply. "Woah. Faith, I can't...I mean, I can be here for you, but not like that."
"Because of Buffy," Faith said.
"A late night snack, Angelus?"
The two brunettes looked up to see Spike lounging shirtless in the doorway, a casual smirk on his face. He ran his fingers absently up and down the center of his chest, the bite on his neck above the leather collar still glaringly visible. He watched as Faith's eyes practically devoured him, making his brow quirk up in amusement. He straightened and circled around her, then positioned himself behind his sire. "Looks tasty. Are you going to share?"
"Spike, get lost," Angel growled.
"Am I interruptin' something here?" Faith asked, gesturing between the two men.
Spike flashed her a smile, one of his hands sliding over Angel's shoulder and partially down the older vampire's chest. "Oh, I think your interruption is quite timely, pet," the blond replied.
Angel grabbed Spike's wrist and yanked him down so he could hiss in the blond's ear, "Spike, enough. Go take a shower. "
"Fine," Spike sighed, flashing another devilish smile at Faith. "But I'm going to tell Red that you won't share your toys anymore." He straightened and sauntered out of the room, adding over his shoulder, "Maybe she'll take pity on a bloke, and let me play with her."
Angel gave Faith an embarrassed smile. "Sorry about that."
"You dog," Faith chuckled. "Hot damn. The King of Purity is hiding the salami with another guy. Wait ‘til B gets an earful of this." She stood and shook her head, a grin on her face. "I never pictured you for a rainbow. Guess that whole ‘curse' thing is a ruse, eh?"
Stepping around Angel, who was trying to come up with a proper defense, she said, "Have fun with your boy-toy, Angel." Then she quickly left the mansion.
Angel sighed and rubbed a weary hand over his face, then turned and wandered away, missing a light blue jacketed Buffy standing on the other side of the boarded up garden doors with a stunned look on her face, having heard what Faith said.
