Fic: 'The More Things Stay the Same' (1/3) by Quinara [R]

[quinara]

'Allo!

I hope I'm not stepping on anyone's toes, but it's just ticked over to my posting day in my time zone, and I was getting antsy, so does anyone mind if I begin? (Hi, mods! Thanks so much for running this again!!) I've got a three-part fic and a vid to post today, so will be popping in at fairly regular intervals!

The More Things Stay the Same.
Buffy goes to Wesley instead of Tara about the resurrection spell.

Author: Quinara
Rating: R for for reasonably explicit sex and a whole bunch of swearing.
Length: ~25,000 words (in three chapters of approx. 8300 each.)
Other Pairings: None as such, though Angel is around, so there's certainly Buffy-Angel interaction and a friendly acceptance of the Bangel of yore.
Notes: Big thanks to bogwitch for the beta job! It rather got away with me after she saw it, though, so don't blame her for anything you don't like. ;) Also, this fic is set after DMP (where the chapter titles come from) and immediately after Loyalty on AtS.
Warnings: Nothing AO3 would make you warn for; otherwise, a certain amount of S6-y misery, but it's not what I'd call the angstiest thing in angst town.

( Chapter One: Hit the Button, Then It Beeps. )

Vid: 4'33'' by Quinara

[quinara]

Hello again! This is a bit of an experiment for me (definitely more so than my earlier fic), but I hope people enjoy it all the same. :)

( So, generally I'm a believer in things standing for themselves, but if you want a bit more info about what's going on here, there's some blurby bollocks under this cut. )

TL;DR: This vid is strange, but you can hopefully still watch it with the sound off. It comes with a free poem...? Warnings for discrete flashes and a lot of juddery cutting. Otherwise it's fairly gloomy in mood, but with nothing more ratings-worthy than a rat. And those strangely made-up cuts on Spike's chest from Lessons. If you feel like it, I'd recommend watching with the lights off and in HD / having downloaded the file.
