A Long Time Coming (Spike/Buffy), G

[coalitiongirl]

I'm back again! I finally have some free time and I know I owe many, many comment replies, so expect them to be coming in over the next couple of hours.

Have some fic! Vaguely comics-compliant, but not really comic fic at all. Takes place in a future in which Buffy has a baby and a whole lot of frustration with Spike. Oh, and said baby is staking

Love snarky Dawn! Three steps ahead, no surprise. Their little domestic world is quite cute, even if it's missing a few of the elements Buffy would like. Now with smoochies!

Naturally, the smoochies go a long way to making Buffy's world just a bit more complete! ;)

Wonderfully fluffy. Love it!

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it!

See this is why the comics do serve a purpose. They give amazing writers like yourself ideas that become wonderful fan fiction.

Domestic Spuffy is a a delight. Buffy softens as a mom. And keeping Joy away from things that go bump in the night will not protect her.

Spike adores Joy. This is one time it's not about the blood. Spike loves Joy because of her. Not because she is part of him.

Glad to see you are back writing. Missed your Spuffy work. It's always so very good.

I think Spike considers anyone connected to Buffy as a part of him, and acts accordingly. ;)

Thank you so much! I've been missing writing muchly, but real life has been more demanding than usual lately. Hopefully I'll manage to get much more writing done during the summer!

THIS IS SO DELIGHTFUL.

Baby Joy with her staking! That she learned from Buffy and Spike wrestling and groping! OMG.

or the “Uncle,” which sometimes has her crying into her pillow at night out of sheer exhaustion at the not-ness that is their relationship these days

This is so them, I can’t even.

“Husband?” Dawn suggests pertly.

THIS IS WHY DAWN IS MY FAVORITE.

Our baby, our baby, come and stay with us and be Joy’s father and my-

*weeping for Buffy*

I love this so very much. Yay for you being back with the writing!

I AM SO GLAD YOU ENJOYED. (psst also I had you in mind when Buffy had takeout the night before ;D)

Basically all I'm capable of writing most of the time is domestic and sexually frustrated Spuffy at this point. It may get repetitive if it's all I do all summer, oops.

This made my day!

I would never, ever say no to domestic and sexually frustrated Spuffy, so repeat as much as you like!
