Spuffy style Reading Challenge - #9: Nature

A (Mostly) Comprehensive Guide to the End of the World by Annabellee [NC-17]

After a worldwide pandemic wipes out over 99% of the human population, the only way for those left to survive is to find others and make deals. Buffy, a potential slayer who's already watched people near and dear to her die, understands that the only person you can truly count on is yourself and has no desire to make connections with anyone else. Everything changes when she finds a little girl in the woods, makes a deal with a blonde devil, and discovers that there's more to the disease - and maybe the devil- than meets the eye.

A Matter Of Taste by Twinkles [Adult Only]

A potentially horrifying story of lust, blood and hunger when the world turns inside out. Set shortly before Buffy vs Dracula; Riley left town at the end of S4.

The Blue Eye of the Storm by MaggieLaFey [NC-17]

Instead of the Scythe, what Buffy finds under the vineyard is a portal to another dimension. Spike has followed her there, and it’s the two of them that will cross the portal… and remain trapped on the other side for far longer than they’d expected. What will happen when the two of them—plus a local guide—are away from the stress of Chez Summers? Will they find some peace in the eye of the storm?

The Longest Night by tempestt [PG-13]

On the longest night of the year, Buffy learns the importance of forgiveness.

May You Ever Return by Cosmic Tuesdays [R]

On May 28, 2009, Spike and three Slayers walked into the woods.

On June 22, 2010, he walked out alone.

This is what happened in between.

Nevertime by anaross [R]

They lost. But they lived. Spike, Blue, and Angel head north to the Arctic to escape the demons set loose in Not Fade Away. (Don't worry... Buffy finds them.)

The Scoobies Discover Nature by OffYourBird [NC-17]

Our team of plucky Scoobies and their reluctant neighboring vampire have survived a lot on the Hellmouth. Will swarms of mosquitos, granola-stealing squirrels, and seriously uncooperative weather turn out to be their undoing? Or will some of them simply start undoing their clothes?

(Set in the summer after S4)

Stars For Wars Like Ours by ashcrashed [NC-17]

There's trouble brewing in Big Sky Country, and it calls for help from the original Chosen One and current General of Slayer, Inc. Buffy travels to the picturesque town of Bozeman, MT to assist a slayer contingent, and discovers a highly organized crime syndicate terrorizing the tourists, with plenty of muscle and a pesky aversion to sunlight. And it's there, she finds--much to her surprise--a familiar face also working the case, very much alive (though thankfully not on fire).

Wooded Path by Linnae13 [NC-17]

Once upon a time... ...or perhaps in this one, where the world has yet to grow with population and industry. Where a little cottage in the middle of a cold, frozen forest is the home of one Buffy Summers. Her surroundings are vacant, her life calm and filled with work and minimal play, but that's true for most people. She doesn't mind living this life, or doing so quite far from town. The place never felt very big when she resided there with her parents, and now she calls a different place home. When her grandmother passed on the cottage became Buffy's alone, though it should be said she tries to walk the same wooded path. Following her family's teachings to earn a living, even if she couldn't practice what talents they had cherished and honed, is precisely what brings her to the edge of a man's wintry deathbed. A pale, blue eyed stranger with white hair and no prayer for survival, unless she helps him.

World Enough, and Time by toooldforthis [R]

“You came back wrong,” he told her, all those years ago. He was right, but it took them a very long time to realise exactly what that meant. It meant a hundred more apocalypses, a thousand battles. It meant a journey, a prophecy, a war. They’d lose one other, and find their way back, and choose, again and again. And all the while, the earth was failing.

There are a lot more people than you think who are here for the long haul – like, the really long haul. This is a story about two of them.
