red_satin_doll here are five classic Spangel stories that I particularly love. (Someone already recced Friday, or that would have been top of the list, obviously. Also I don't have anything by Kita - sorry!) Have tried to list the fics as they happen within the shows' timeline.
1. Nothing Else Matters byestepheia. Summary: Having been beaten up by Buffy [in Dead Things] Spike drives to L.A. (This was the fic that brought me on board the Spike/Angel slash train. It is amazing and very hot.)
2. Lament for the Dead bystir_of_echoes. Summary: Nothing worth doing is completed in our lifetime/Therefore, we are saved by hope [...] (Post-Destiny. If you take 'that one time' literally, this could be it.)
3. His Body A Boat byromanyg. Summary: Some sex, some violence. Wha'd'ya want? It's S/A. (If you want 'classic' you can't get more classic than this. Absolute, pared-down perfection.)
4. Vicarious (redux) bylynnenne. Summary: Spike and Angel share their memories of Buffy. In bed. (Set post-TGiQ. The perfect coda.)
5. Desert Pixies Made Us Do It bynomelon. Summary: Angel and Spike in the desert. Stuff happens. (Could be post-NFA. Also, the summary doesn't do it justice - this is quite simply one of the funniest fics in existence!)
