New fic: WAITING AROUND (pt 1 of ?)
Beginning of a new story about Spike and Buffy.
The action of this story picks up immediately from the conclusion of Some Scenes From The Later Life of Two Heroes.</b> If you haven't read that one, it was a sequel to a longer pair of Spike/Xander stories, which can be read here. The low-down: since her resurrection, Buffy has never aged, and has grown increasingly distant from her surviving adult children and their families. After a long lifetime partnered with Xander, Spike has buried him and is at a loose end. He and Buffy have a series of encounters, and after averting an apocalypse together, return to London for what might be the beginning of an affair. But the morning after, Buffy's not so sure ....
( Look, we can take a suite at the Dorchester right now if you prefer it, Slayer. Don't expect you to rough it more'n you like. )
