OK I feel entirely stupid because I just read this fic a few weeks ago but I can't seem to remember the title or author or where I found it. If it is in another fic rec please be kind and direct me there while I beat myself up for being dumb lol. Its an entire rewrite of season 6 I believe and after defeating Warren, Spike gives the orbs to Xander for keeping because he's not special like anyone else and in doing so he manages to bruise Buffy's arm and they get taken away from him eventually...Thanks again |
