seasonal spuffy

Hello, all! enigmaticblues is a rockstar: this we all know. See e.g. this, the best community ever. Even better, even though I blonded out and forgot to sign up this year, she graciously offered to let me share her day. So of course I manage to botch it by setting up my browser-blocking software wrong (it's finals time in Kaytville), preventing myself from reaching the internets until 2:30 a.m. rather than p.m. :( So here is my story for this season, late, and with apologies.

Title: Walk Like an Egyptian (1/1)
Timeline: Post-Chosen, sort of Season 8 compliant - set several years post-S8
Rating: PG, for a bit of language.
Summary: Three glowing maybe-gods are not so much a one-woman fight. Happily, Buffy has some unexpected backup in vampire form. So what if she hasn't seen the vampire in question for three years?
Author's note: This definitely owes a little to frenchani for inspiration...

But I am totally counting this as "my day" anyway. No lie, I had to explain that I am participating in a romance-novels-about-Buffy festival and need to borrow your computer, law school colleague! So chalk this one up to straight Buffy love.

And chalk this story up to seasonal_spuffy. This was my very first story in the Spuffy fandom, nervously posted here. I had no idea how important Spuffy, and mostly the people it's brought me, would be in my life. I'm so happy to be able to keep "More Conversations" going where it came from.

Also, can I extend the maddest of props to Gillo? No, seriously. She gets more props than I can shake a stick at for managing an emergency beta of this chapter with literally no warning. And let me tell you, without her it would really have come to nothing. No scary, no fun. It's all Gillo, folks. I owe her forever.

In addition Gillo, Queen of All People Basically, I'd like to dedicate this chapter to my fellow WIPP (work-in-progress princesses) kcarolj65 and boschette. We all fell upon hard times at about the same time, so heres hoping this heralds a comeback for the lot of us!

seasonal_spuffy is super-special to me. I wrote my very first BtVS fic for the last round, and the warm welcome I got here helped turn me into a full-fledged Buffy writer.

I'll have a few one-shots peppered throughout the day. Here's the first:

Title: Never Mind the Bollocks
Timeline: Right after "Get it Done"
Summary: She smiled, then, a kind of soft half-grin. Almost worth it, that smile. A good trade for his balls. Almost.
