NC-17, Spike/Angel. Angel's Friday never segues into Saturday - but it's only Spike who knows about it. An idea that works great as a plot twist *and* as a metaphor of Angel's state of mind in season 5.

PR-13, post-End of Days. Buffy/Spike. Future!Buffy arrives to "End Of Days" moment in the timeline and tries to warn Spike about his impending death in the Hellmouth. Their encounter changes the outcome of the battle in the Hellmouth - but not the way Buffy envisioned, so she goes back in time again to fix a previous timeline. The narrative combines the premises of Groundhog Day and Back to the Future and provides a lot of unexpected twists and turns.

WIP, NC-17. Buffy/Angel. Angel has to live the day from "I Will Remember You" over and over and over again. The story is not finished, but, hopefully, one day... Because it's a great fic, built aroud one of the most poignant and controversial moments in Buffyverse.

NC-17. Buffy and Spike relive many times the day in The Yoko Factor. Nobody else is affected by this strange time disturbance, so they have to join forces to undo the spell. It takes them 21 days to figure out the situation, to destroy the spell, to defeat Adam - and, of course, to fall for each other. Funny, fast-paced story inventively explores different scenarios of a very hectic day in Buffy's life.

PG-13, Buffy/Spike. Post-BotN. On the Christmas Eve of 2002 Buffy tries to save Spike from The First - again and again, as the day repeats itself. And the most surprising part? When she finally saves him, the "Groundhog Day" situation goes on!
