I Will Remember You Which B/A'er doesn't remember that November day five years ago? Joss gave us hope, he made us hope... and then he made us cry. Typical Joss. But most of us love that episode anyway, as well as the pairing it represents. Buffy/Angel has been in the show since its beginning, from 'Welcome to the Hellmouth' to 'Chosen'. Considering they were separated relatively early in the series, it is quite a miracle that this 'ship has such a large following. There are dozens of facets to Buffy/Angel, the sweetest, the darkest and everything in-between. I doubt any archive hosts even a half of the stories that are focused on this couple. Thank you to everyone who contributed last November. I only hope you'll have as much fun as I did. One way to show it is to feedback the authors. Their stories deserve it. |

Choices by Kate
Rating: PG-13
Pairings: Buffy/Riley (just warning you - it's just for the sake of plot and timeline) and
B/A!!!
Timeline: Between the end of season four and the start of season five except a bit later
than that. Buffy's still at College, Riley is still around *shudder*, No Dawn, No sick
Joyce.
Spoilers: Probably most of the cannon, IWRY in particular.
Synopsis: Buffy visits an alternative dimension in which Angel stayed human in IWRY.
Author's Note: I actually started this story years ago, but decided that this was the
perfect opportunity to revive it. Writing in second person and season four is a real
flashback, it's like watching season 2 again or something. Feedback is loved and big hugs
to Sarah for beta-ing.

The Epic Struggle
Between Good And Evil, or, One Normal Night For Buffy and Angel by Fleur and Cassie
Summary: All Buffy wants is one moment of happiness, and nobody understands.
Note: Set after The Zeppo in Season Three. Some dialogue cribbed from Fleur's Very Stupid
RPG Buffy. Beta read by Bradley who is LJless. The oddest combination of humour and angst,
very much like The Zeppo itself. We were inspired by the B/A in that. We haven't slept in
a week and are kind of strange.

by Doyle

The Thin Spun Line
by Dana M. Evans
Genres: Romance, Angst
Rating - PG-13
Pairing - B/A, Connor/Faith
Time Line - Post Not Fade Away
Summary - Angel fears he and Buffy have drifted too far apart to ever be together again.
Authors Note #1 - This is the third story in the series but you dont need to
read them to enjoy this. All you need to know is Angel and Spike are the only ones to
survive the battle, both horribly injured. They are rescued by Connor and he and Lorne
take them to the Cleveland Hellmouth where the Scoobies have converged to help the
vampires recover.
Authors Note #2 - Thanks to SJ and Maren for editing this monster (with apologies to
the ladies if I dont get time to make all the corrections. Im down to the wire
and most assuredly there will be a BETTER version of this coming some day soon). Thanks to
SJ, Maren, DL, Kristi, Stephanierb, vampedvixen, Makd, fickledame, Aaronlisa who all
helped field ideas as to what Buffy and Angel had and didnt have in common which
really fleshed out this story.
November 23rd
Coat Tails by Wendy
Rating: PG-13.
Summary: There's a tale behind every leather jacket.

Sky Painted Epiphanies
by Rachel
Disclaimer: Joss owns everyone, I own nothing. Im simply taking them out to play
with. The lyrics are from 3x5 by John Mayer.
Rating: PG
Spoilers: Post- NFA
Notes: Yeah, this is fluff, if you like fluff youll like this, (I hope). Lyrics are
in parentheses
Summary: Angel has a moment of clarity, and he does something about it.
Feedback: Is loved and much appreciated :)

Awful Beautiful
Life by Dana
Rating - Pg-13
Pairing - B/A
Summary - Angel and Buffy set out to pay Connor back for the glow-in-the-dark hair dye
Authors Note - This is only part of this story, written as a back up for Lenis
IWRY Marathon. The whole Connor/Faith part will proceed it when the story is complete. All
you need to know is that this fits into The Thin Spun Life.
Angel is recovering from his injuries after Black Thorns attack in Cleveland with
the help of the Scoobies. He and Buffy are trying to get back together and Angel is trying
to rebuild his relationship with Connor. He hadnt gambled on a Post-Origins
Connor having a wicked sense of humor built into him.

First Date by a2zmom
Rating: PG
What if B/A actually went on that date that they talked about at the end of "Reptile
Boy"
November 26th
Ever Since by Faith
Rating: Strong R to be safe
Summary : Set during Season 2, Buffy and Angel take that extra step
Author's Notes: Im basically saying PAH to Angels silly soul binding thing. I
do not agree with it and need to be a tad free of angst for a while ;) I'm very, very
nervous since this is the first B/A I have ever written. So, please try not to be too
mean, but I would appreciate constructive critiscm. :) Everyone else here is so amazing,
so I hope I do the B/A marathon justice.

Buffy the vampire
slayer by jenny haniver
Summary: the Buffy and Angel saga. tongue in cheek.
Rating: light R, hard PG-13
November 28th
Ice Cream by Emmy
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: B/A what else? *g*
Timeline: BtVS Season 4/AtS Season 1
Spoilers: Specifically AtS 1.8 I Will Remember You, BtVS 4.9 Something Blue, 4.10 Hush,
4.11 Doomed. I've made various changes to all of these, but I've pretty much maintained
the original plotlines of each. And, um, Angel canon after I Will Remember You does not
exist, and thus Doyle does not die.
Author's Notes: MUST READ BEFORE READING FIC. V. IMPORTANT. Ah yes. This is another IWRY
rewrite. I suck, yes. However, I think I've attacked it differently than most: I don't
think I've ever stumbled upon this particular plotline before. If someone has done it
before, let me know, kay? Anyhow, this idea came into being one day when I was re-watching
that lovely gorgeous episode and thought, 'What if their hands didn't touch? What if they
stuck to the mature plan? And then what if they freaked out and didn't call each other?'
And thus, a fic was born. I thought it would be interesting to see if I could do it,
because I've read so many of these damn fics that just piss me off because they all employ
the same old tired clichés: Buffy gets pregnant; Riley and Angel get into a fight; Buffy
remembers after Angel has the day rewound; the Oracles intervene; and I'm sure you guys
can add a few more in there. Suffice to say, I tried to steer away from this stuff, and
hey, I even made Riley nice. That is, I made him act like he did in canon at that time,
which, um, was nice. [/thinly veiled poke at people who insist on writing Riley as a
jealous bastard pre-The Yoko Factor, when he got a reason to be a jealous bastard.]
Anyway, since this could now be considered a foreword, I will go away and let you read the
fic. Hopefully you enjoy it.
