Hey guys,

I am looking for two different fics. They both have a scene where Buffy lights a cigarette because the scent of the smoke reminds her of Spike.

Both are obviously set post-Chosen. I don't remember if they were complete or WIPs.

In one of them the scene takes place at the Sunnydale crater and Buffy does not only inhale the scent, she actually smokes the cigarette. Faith is also there. It is not Aeternum in Anno by Chelle which has a similar scene but with whiskey instead of cigarettes.

In the other one Buffy does not smoke the cigarette. She only lights it and lets it burn. She is sitting on a back porch or a fire escape. It is not Waking The Dead by Annie Sewell-Jennings which has a similar scene but in that Waking The Dead Buffy actually smokes.

Any ideas?

Hi Flow,

There's scene where Buffy lights a cigarette to remind her of Spike but it's in her room...

Hi Hannora,

it's definitely not the one you linked because I haven't read that yet and hadn't even heard of it before. Thank you for looking!
