Buffy, Angel and Spike ideally complement each other whether they fight or make love or try to live together without killing each other. Unfortunately there aren't many fics about the Royal Three nowadays - my guess is that the famous threesome panel in Buffy comics left nothing to imagination. Still, there are insightful fics (not necessarity NC-17) about Buffy, Angel and Spike, their ultra-complicated relationship and their attempts at harmony in the middle of chaos. The stories listed here are varied - there is a plotty epic story, a snarky, no-holds-barred parody and several character studies during different stages of heroes' journeys.

Breath and Memory by [livejournal.com profile] chrisleeoctaves
NC-17. One-shot. A touching glimpse at Buffy/Spike/Angel threesome in the future. Razor-sharp character study and exquisitely hot pr0n in the same package.

Conduit by [livejournal.com profile] chrisleeoctaves
One-shot, R, Season 6. Buffy/Spike, Spike/Angel, Buffy/Angel. Author's description: "Spike is used by both Buffy and Angel". Chrisleeoctaves regards Spike's relationship with Buffy and Angel as a complex and fascinating mix of love, pain, guilty pleasures and quiet desperation. The story is focused on Spangel relationship with great insights into Angel and Angelus' mind but there are brilliant flashes into Spike's psyche ("sky was still a spilled ink stain against the sand and ribbon of highway" is clever and subtle reminder that the character used to write with an inkpen and the phrase "Angel always hanging around was the icing on the proverbial cake if the cake was made of mud and the frosting was shit" is vintage Spike :)

Fragments in Hard Voyages by [livejournal.com profile] lynnenne (germaine_pet)
Post-NFA, R, finished. Spike/Angel, Spike/Buffy, Buffy/Angel. Buffy has an instant flash 11 years in the future where she lives with Spike. Shaken by the vision she goes to Los-Angeles to investigate. Turns out there is another apocalypse a-brewing and they have to deal with it. Intriguing plotty story about choices - or maybe the lack of them.

Be Careful What You Wish For by [livejournal.com profile] annegables
PG, post-Potential. Spike gets a chance to make a wish. He wishes that Buffy gets what she deserves. The result is quite unexpected. A rarity among B/A/S fiction - an unapologetically feelgood story.

Valentine Fight Club: Buffy vs. Angel by [livejournal.com profile] dark_amia
NC-17, Het, Slash, violence, toys, daddy!kink, anal. Buffy and Angel argue who Spike loves more. Wicked fun with a terrific twist in the end.

EVERYTHING is more interesting with Spike and Angel around. *g* I haven't been reading the Buffy comics, mainly because they're not in the story. I have, however, been reading Angel: After the Fall and quite enjoying it.

I do read reviews of the Buffy comics, just to keep up on what's happening, and the whole story sounds kind of bizarre. So far, I feel like I haven't missed anything.
