So I can't seem to get enough of the angsty stories so here goes some more :) @ontheroadinmanycountries
Tempesta di amore by @elysianholly suuuper angsty, haunted vibe, to the point that I was worried for a minute :D But it was so well written, and it's well balanced with the fluff. I absolutely recommend it!
A (Mostly) Comprehensive Guide to the End of the World by annabelle I absolutely love this dystopian angsty AU! Very interesting perspective and some lovely spike and dawnie times
In Omne Tempus by @elysianholly so great with a different sorta soulmate approach to spuffy covering different time spans. It's so sweet and angsty. Really loved it

Hello do you know about any fics where Dawn is actually spuffys daughter, and she appears in s5 as a baby and not as a teen? Extra points if Buffy is pregnant or gets pregnant during something blue. Thank you!
He was her father and her Watcher, her friend and mentor. The one she would have chosen to give her away at her wedding. Our current Featured Works are those that explore the pivotal role Rupert Giles played in shaping the Buffyverse.
Rendezvous by Eurydice PG-13 â
From the Personal Journal of Rupert Giles Volume 1 by ginar369 G â
We know Buffy and Spike have faced unimaginable horrors. Apocalypses, hellgods, military labs, high school⌠Sometimes, they (much like us) deserve a break from the struggles that define everyday existence. Our current Featured Works explore the lighter side of the Buffyverse.
No poodles were harmed in the making of these fics.

Elysian Fields Archive welcomes back Mystery Month this July, which means itâs time for the most important part of the event: Creating the mystery!
Thatâs rightâWE NEED PROMPTS.
The fun thing with Mystery Month, is that all the prompts are created by the community.
What do we do with the prompts? Every week, a small selection of prompts will be shared. Creators will have ONE WEEK to write and post the next chapter of their fic/artwork that includes their prompt of choice in some way. You only need to choose one, but if you really want to challenge yourself and use all, feel free! Weâll certainly be impressed.
What prompts? Well, for that, weâre turning to all of you beautiful (and totally not slimy) chaos demons for ideas.
Prompts can be the name of a character, an object, a location, a color, a numberââpretty much anything you want.
FIVE WORDS OR LESS.
And yes, even if youâre not participating in Mystery Month itself, you can still submit prompts! Readers, lurkers, commenters, agents of chaosâjust like a party in an eye socket, everyoneâs invited.
And because we love all prompts equally, even the unchosen ones, unused prompts will later be recycled into future event fun
We do still have prompts left from 2022 AND 2024, but weâre a bit greedy and want even more! We especially want newer members, readers, commenters, lurkers, chaos gremlins, and everyone in between to have a chance to contribute.
Start submitting your prompts now through this simple form!
You have from May 15 to June 5 at 11:59 P.M. site time to submit.
More information on Mystery Month (including GORGEOUS awards, like seriously you aren't prepared for how great they are) will be coming in the next few weeks.
Not an Elysian Fields member? Sign up to participate in Mystery Month (and all our other Spuffy challenges!)
Our current features explore all the unique ways our creators have opted to tell Spuffy stories. Text messages? Pictures? Diary entries? Yes please. Spuffy finds their way to each other in all formats.

I present [with delay, because I forgot to crosspost] a list of 5 Spuffy fics Iâve read between March and April.
Theyâre all complete, mostly recent, and all links are for Sunnydale After Dark.
Fics marked with the đ emoji were written for SADâs Short & Spuffy 2026.
(NOTE: some or all may be available on other archives as well).
Listed from oldest to most recent;
see the publishing year (on SAD) before the title.
Some reviews are taken from my own comments left for the stories. I tried to make them short and not spoiler-y.
Summary: Heâs bored. Heâs trapped. And heâs not going to make it easy on anyone. That is⌠until something makes it very hard on Spike.
A series of drabbles for Sunnydale After Darkâs Short & Spuffy 2026.
Review: A highly entertaining new take on Spikeâs stay at Gilesâs place in early S4. And with just enough spice to make you swoon at all the missed opportunities! Perfect Spike voice.
(2026) The Rhyme for Orange by Alyot [R] đ drabbles, 30 chapters
Summary:Â Spike writes his thoughts after Buffyâs death.
Review: A deep, touching journey into Spikeâs grief over the course of that one grim summer, and through his emotions over Buffyâs return.
(2026) the whole kit and caboodle by jewelram [PG-13] đ drabbles, 30 chapters
Summary:Â or, what are a vampire, a slayer, and a key to do when their apartment is overrun with kittens?
Review: Follow the fun adventures of Buffy, Spike, Dawn, and their mischievous four cats in these delicious drabbles. Youâll gobble them up, guaranteed!
This fic is part of a series (this one), but the stories can be read as standalones. Although, if you have the time, I recommend them all (actually, one was already part of my Fic Recs, exactly a year ago, check it out!
(2026) Show Your Work by gwennie [NC-17] đ drabbles, 30 chapters
Summary:Â As they head home from a routine patrol, Buffy ponders Spikeâs jewellery choices. Written for Short and Spuffy 2026.
Review: A brilliant, seamless storytelling that digs deep into the relationship between Buffy and Spike as theyâre navigating their new balance in S7.
(2026) We Carry On by Slaymesoftly [PG] one-shot
Summary:Â Almost short enough to call a drabble, this takes place shortly after Buffyâs death. Giles and Spike are dealing with her loss.
Review: I am more than willing to put aside my issues with Giles, when thereâs some good bonding. I do feel like heâs never really âforgivenâ Dawn for Buffyâs sacrifice, and maybe nobody truly did, except Spike.
At least Giles saw that if there was someone capable of keeping the Scoobies together, that was him and Spike, and he acted accordingly...
I read a fic once where spike and buffy were under the influence of something that made them go at it like rabbits and eventually it was discovered the only way to end the (for lack of better word) "heat" was for buffy to get pregnant. But the only way for her to get pregnant was for spike to be human so giles gives him mohra blood to turn him temporarily. I cant find this fic anywhere -- help???
Currently obsessed with a Buffy x Spike fanfic first published in 2018 on AO3 and I have to say, the Spike crush I developed as a child never truly went away.
