buffyversetop5There are WIPs and there are those likely to remain unfinshed. Of the latter, there are some just too good to pass up even though they may never be completed. Here's my list of my five favorites (and YES, I recommend you read them and other stories by their authors as the quality is just that good).
Not gonna count this one that is too obvious and also unavailable:
Dancing Lessons by the Redemptionista group (several writers collaberating on this mamouth undertaking. Sadly I can give no link as the site was removed when the website owner (and co-writer) left the fandom.......shed a tear as it was sooooo close to being concluded! If you are new to fandom....ask if anyone has a copy and beg!
1. Haunt of The House by Tracy (Jericho)
Buffy and Spike are terrorized in a house with a history of vampires, ghosts and tragedy. The original characters alone make this one a classic and the implications on vampire lore are compelling. Shades of grey issues abound in this wonderful, nearly completed story.

2. As The Romans Do by theohara (Helga Van Nutwimple) Post NFA epic that makes sense.

3. Two Summers by theohara (Helga Von Nutwimple)
Spawn, wonderful, logical Spawn. A plan to defeat Glory in this alternate S5 leads to a bond between Dawn and Spike that is much more than either wanted or expected. Now that Dawn is grown, what are the real feelings and what are the residual effects of this bond.

4. Castaway by Ripe Wicked Plum Buffy is given a graduation present of a cruise with daddy and his latest girlfriend. On board, unbeknownst to Buffy is Spike and his dark princess. The ship sinks, Buffy and Spike are the sole survivors. They form a symbiotic relationship for survival that leads to love and a new life that is interrupted by a rescue by the Scoobies. Can the real relationship they forged survive? Was life better on that island? Can anyone tell a tale quite like Plummie?

5. Pandoras Boxer by Speakr2customrs Now in fairness, this will likely be completed one day and it can be looked on as "complete in one sense already (hence its place as number 5). This starts in the cave as Spike wins his challenges at the end of season 6 and then catapults back in time to season 4. ALl of this alternate season 4 is complete with plans for season5 and season6 in this alternate time line. Yummy goodness as Spike seeks to have a happier unlife for one and all.

All of these writers are top drawer and none of their stories (even the WIPs and unfinished beauties) are to be missed. Publish worthy one and all...you won't be disappointed.
