buffyversetop5Don’t you just love those random, seemingly inconsequential walk-on characters? Sometimes they become regulars (Harmony, Jonathan), sometimes they show up again a couple more times (Ethan Rayne, Sandy the vampire/victim from Doppelgangland), or maybe they just go on with their “lives” (Sheila from School Hard, my personal favorite). Don’t you want to know more about them? Now you can, with these delightful, mostly canon, fill-in-the-blank back-stories.
Note: I’m putting in multiple links to each story, because of the dreadful disappearing link issues that are going around these days. Also, Spike usually makes an appearance in these stories, because that’s how Iroll found them.
Bit Parts (or, How Spike Got Himself a Date) by Mint Witch (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
mintwitch), Hard R, 4 chapters, BtVS season 6
Spike’s nameless date to Xander’s wedding gets a real story here, all from her very lively POV. She soon discovers that they go back farther than either of them realized. Oh, and according to the show credits, her name is “Tarantula”.
Here, here, here, and here.
Hotel Lavear by Indri (indri), PG13, One shot, BtVS season 3
The Chaos Demon is the only guy in the Buffyverse that can rival Spike for the hopeless romantic title belt. His story is a tragic but dignified one. He fell in love with a beautiful vampire girl down inMexico Argentina, and his life will never be the same.
Here, here, here, and here.
I Was Made For Loving You Baby by Speaker-to-Customers (speakr2customrs), PG13, 7 chapters (which may be continued at a later date), AU BtVS season 6
I am not Buffy. Who am I? The Buffybot becomes self-aware. You’d think that wackiness would ensue, wouldn’t you? You’d be only partially right, as this story contains a serious look at self-determination. With a fair smattering of kitten poker and whatnot.
Here, here, and here.
(In)Discretion bythatotherperv, NC17, One shot, BtVS season 5
Lydia Chalmers, Watcher, attempts to get some material from the source to “fill in some holes” in her thesis on William the Bloody. Spike is happy to oblige.
Here, here, and here.
Not A One-Night Stand byslaymesoftly, R, One shot, BtVS season 6
Another stellar appearance by Spike’s date to Xander’s wedding. This time with amusing POV alternating between Spike and “Tarantula”.
Here and here.
Does anybody know of any “Skip, the prison guard demon” fic to which they can point me? ‘Cos that would be cool.
