Bio:
I'm a 50 something year old teacher in NZ. I've been reading Spuffy for over ten years now. I love the interaction between this unlikely couple, that they're opposites who constantly challenge one another on one level, but are equals who are so well matched on another.

New to writing but loving it. Despit hard drive crashes and lack of back up, I've almost finished my second story which is part 2 of a trilogy set in the Sagaria-verse.

Please excuse any kiwification of American terms - usually can't pick up on what is wrong cos you don't know what you don't know!!

Anyone keen to do a banner please contact me. I did make a simple one myself but just couldn't get the coding right so ended up deleting it.

Clocks of the Long Now by lostboy Rated: 18 Liked [Reviews - 215]
Summary: This story begins post-Chosen, then rockets into an angsty, dystopian post-NFA future that finds Buffy questioning the loyalties of her closest allies.

Four years after the gang helped Sunnydale perform its swan dive into Hell, a terrifying new enemy emerges from an unexpected quarter. As secrets are revealed and old friends are reunited, the greatest Apocalypse of all looms ever closer. Will they manage to save the day one last time?

Bloody hell - this is fucking awesome. I don't usually do WIP - too much potential for heartbreak if they die the slow death. But after two years and 36 chapters, I figured you're invested enough to finish the journey. And oh my God am i glad I took the risk. Even if you never finish, the quality of your writing, the originality of your plot, the complexity of the storyline and the character development will forever stand this tale as a piece of art. i love the way you use imagery to paint the landscape of your multiverse, and the almost playful way you select words and phrases. I find myself reading lines over and over again to suck out every metaphor, ever image, each nuance. You're a true artist, please finish those final strokes to complete this masterpiece. Do I love it - hell yeah!!!

Author's Response: Thanks so much, badgervamp. Nothing short of a well-aimed bullet can stop me from finishing it now.

So all the ducks are in a row - except you just blew some of the ducks out of the water didn't you? Still wouldn't write Willow off though. Brilliant writing as ever - where can I buy the book? Looking forward to the final home straight - who will survive? Who will die a hero - my money's on the Butch and Sundance combination of Andrew and Melvin - how well you've managed to humanise that old devil! Thank you for sharing your vision with us.

Author's Response: Thanks for the kind words, badgervamp. Yes, it is the final home stretch now and, while not everyone will make it to the finish line, I hope I\'ve given them all a good run.

Hey Niamh
Well I’ve just finished an Origins marathon – reading all three books end to end. I had read Book 1 years ago and part of Book 2 (but can’t handle WIPs so lost track after a while). But I couldn’t wait to get stuck in and reread the whole ‘verse when I noticed Resolutions popped up on the Completed fics. I know as an author its nice to have regular, ongoing feedback, but as a reader, nothing beats being able to immerse oneself in the world a writer has created for you and riding that road to the very end. And what a journey you took us on. My sincere thanks for the vision, the talent, the passion and the dogged determination you put in to creating this amazing, compelling, unique and convincing ‘verse. You painted a broad and vivid landscape, peopled by bold and believable versions of our favourite characters. The plot was an utterly enthralling rollercoaster ride of action, suspense, romance, sex, betrayal, angst, sex, triumph, redemption and hot, hot sex. Loved it, loved it, loved it and I’m quite sad to be leaving this tale behind. Thanks once again Niamh for sharing your amazing gift with us. Xx Bv

Have just finished reading Tracker and Tracked Down. Awesome stuff - hard to read at times with its often unrelentingly painful angst but a beautifully crafted and delivered epic nonetheless. Loved the way you tied up the loose ends and gave us a very believable, bittersweet ending. Thanks for the great ride.

Author's Response: Thank you very much for being brave enough to read. I really appreciate your comments regarding my writing. I love convoluted plots and having to make sure the loose ends are accounted for - it\'s a challenge! LOL! Thanks again.

Thought provoking little tale - very bittersweet. Beautifully written as always. Loved both versions of Spike, so as I often am with double universes, very torn between who should win Buffy's hand. My heart has to stay with the vamp version. And I wonder if Buffy back in the 'real' world will ever be able to settle for normal Will knowing what she's lost. Good to leave some of these questions unanswered.

Author's Response: Thank you. I\'m glad you enjoyed it. :)

Unexpected by Passion4Spike Rated: NC-17 Liked [Reviews - 167]
Summary:




**~**
This story picks up at the end of Season 2, The Becoming 2 and goes off canon about half way through that episode.

Buffy has made a deal with Spike to defeat Angelus. It goes off canon when Buffy leaves Giles' flat after talking with Whistler about how to defeat Angelus.

Will Spike still help Buffy defeat Angelus when things go pear shaped? And what then? Where will their lives go from there?

You'll find familiar challenges for Buffy with unexpected results as Spike faces them with her. If you like a story with love, romance, sex, fights, angst, tears, laughter, marriage and babies then you're in the right place! I hope you enjoy it!


This story is rated NC17. Content is only suitable for mature adults. Contains explicit language, violence, sex and adult themes including rape, attempted rape, blood play, character death and other adult situations that some people may find objectionable.

Awesome epic journey. I don't usually like reading WIPs, preferring to wait until they're completed, but your regular updating kept me hooked. Wonderful writing and endless unique twists on the Whedon verse. Great little stinger at the end linking up your AU versions with two recognisably canon versions. Thanks for the ride. Looking forward to your sequels.

Author's Response: Hi badgervamp! Thanks so much for reading while it was a WIP! I totally understand the hesitancy to do that! I\'m glad you enjoyed the different twists and turns this universe took . . . it was a lot of fun finding different ways to do things (and, IMO, fix some things!) that happened in the Whedon-verse! I\'ll have more soon . . . probably won\'t have updates as quickly as I did the main story, but they\'re on the way . . . just have to keep my muse burning the midnight oil! LOL! Thanks again for reading and leaving me a review - - - I REALLY do appreciate it!! -Passion4Spike 2010.05.05

My Elizabeth by Puddinhead Rated: NC-17 Liked [Reviews - 298]
Summary: A 2011 Buffy back in 1880 along with William Pratt. After an ocean voyage and a stop in New York City, our couple sets off across the American West.

There are showdowns, riots, murder and olde tyme bathing suits. The story is also chock full of history and you'll learn all the 'hip slang' from these wacky Victorians in no time. It also features a few real historical figures, but no spoilers. I'll only say that it is NOT Genghis Khan and Amelia Earhart. Put that thought right out of your mind.

Though this is a sequel to "Yours, William," it also works as a stand alone. I had to take down "Yours" as I'm rewriting as an original. You can email me about this if you want info.

Somehow managed to miss Chapter 25 so got to read 25 and 26 together. Woo-hoo. Damned awesome. I didn't mind at all that you stepped away from spike and Buffy for a bit. You've fleshed Alex out so well that she has become as beloved as the Buffyverse characters for me. Fantastic plot development, slice of life in the snobby English public school system and introduction of new characters. And I loved Alex's interaction with Spike - "You are my kid!" aww, got all misty eyed at that one. Thanks Petra, still loving this.

Summary: Basically, my muse pricked me, and I wrote.
AU, Spike is a vampire, Buffy is human. Destined mating type deal, that is the basis for the plot here. (And I don't even believe in destiny so take this story-line as: The correct layout of events happened and he found her.)

This is a mating fic, there will be smut and... Well, I don't want to say much else and give too much away. Still strangers, Spike is spying on Buffy at night, that is how the story begins. Why don't you find out how it ends? ;)

I don't own any of the Whedonverse characters and I am not trying to make a profit from this story. Yadda yadda yadda, this has been a disclaimer.

Wow, I have just picked this up yesterday and read it right through Chapters 1 to 10. An awesome fic - great original premise, super characterizations and of course truckloads of UST. Some nice little twists here, non Slayery Buffy (although I was convinced for the first 3 chapters that Willow had hit at least her, if not Spike as well with the old Lethe's bramble), friendly, well slightly less bitchy Darla, adding the Xander/Dawn relationship simultaneously with retaining Willow/Oz. And did I mention the UST. Anyway thanks Linnae, I shall read and review regularly from now on.

Author's Response: Thank you so much for checking out this fanfic! I'm so happy you are enjoying it, and the fact you will be reading and reviewing makes me so happy!
