I've read a few time travel fics where Buffy (or Spuffy) goes back in time to the 1800s. Sometimes it's before Spike is turned and sometimes it's after. I loved these types of fics so much they left me wanting more! Does anyone have reccomendations for some stories like this?

yeah i love them too

Forward to Time Past by Unbridled Brunette (such an amazing story!!)
The victim of a spell gone awry, Buffy finds herself trapped in Victorian London, where she meets a man surprisingly familiar to her. http://spikeluver.com/SpuffyRealm/viewstory.php?sid=23957&warning=NC-17

Only Time Will Tell by dampersandspoons (another of my favs)
A year after the Hellmouth collapsed, Buffy and co., who now reside in London, are faced with an interesting mission. They must retrieve an artifact, however, this one was destroyed over a hundred years ago. In order to retrieve it, she and her watcher must travel back in time to the late 1800's, to the precise location where William lived before he was turned. Will she risk changing history to seek out the one she loves or will she be put in a completely different situation than she'd anticipated in the first place?

Lost in Time by Spikeskat is one of my favourites. Buffy and Spike are thrown back in time. It's a very long fic, so it should keep you busy for a while. Spikeskat has written two spin-off fics with original characters from this verse, too, and has promised a third one.

Well at the risk of being a cheerleader here, I loved loved loved the time travel story within the Bittersweets Series by Herself. It is not a fluffy series by any means, so if you want all sweet and fluffy time travel this one is not for you. But if you like a little angst with your spuffy I cannot recommend this highly enough.

The time travel story that fits your criteria within this series is:

Mr Grieves and the Fallen Woman

http://www.echonyc.com/~stax/Buffy/herself/grieves.htm

Summary: Buffy finds herself in 19th century London, and meets someone she thinks she knows.

The next story of the series deals with the consequences of the trip back through time, The Littler Bit. Again, it's not fluffy, but it's wonderful.

There is a WIP that is pretty far along that is really good.

Manifest Destiny by Uisge Beatha

http://dark-solace.org/elysian/viewstory.php?sid=1304&warning=NC-17

Summary: Turns out that an ancient coin, a pissed off vampire, and a Slayer with an attitude are not mixy things.

In this one both Spike and Buffy wind up in the 1800s American west, on a wagon train no less. How can you not love that?

Manifest destiny sounds great! I usually read only completed fics because the WIPs I choose always end up being permanent WIPs, but this sounds too good to pass up!

I've read Hearts Breaking Even and its fantastic. I love l'il William. I think I've read Forward to Time Past, it sounds familiar...

Thanks for the suggestiions, I'll have to check them out!

You're very welcome!

I hate that Manifest Destiny isn't finished but I don't regret reading it for a minute. Spike and Buffy on a wagon train is just too great to pass up.
