seeking_spikeI'm looking for a couple of fics that I believe I may have read either at The Bloodshedverse, Vampire's Kiss, or The Spuffy Realm. Yeah, I know. That really narrows it down.
1. I think the first fic might be a year or two old at most. My computer was stolen while I was in the midst of reading it, and it was months before I got my computer replaced. I lost track of the fic and don't even know if it was finished or not. The fic begins with
Buffy stumbling across a small boy (perhaps four or five years old) who is quite obviously lost. He has dark blonde curls, blue eyes, and an English accent. I remember that at one point Tara is comforting the boy and thinking that he really is a beautiful child. Somehow (I can't remember the details), the Scoobies realize that he is from the past but have no idea how he arrived in Sunnydale. I remember that there is a scene where Buffy leaves the boy with Giles and Anya at The Magic Shop, and that Giles is impressed by how well-behaved the child is. He sits quietly coloring while the Scoobies get into one of their usual arguments. I also seem to remember that one of the Scoobies (Anya, perhaps?) takes the child out of The Magic Shop to get him something to eat and loses the child. Buffy finds him just as he is about to be abducted by a strange man (vampire?), and she is absolutely furious that the Scoobies didn't do a better job of watching him. In a very short period of time, Buffy has gotten quite attached to and protective of this little boy. Of course, no one, including Buffy, has made the obvious connection between this little boy and a certain missing, platinum haired vampire. That's all I remember. Hope it is enough.
2. The second fic is again perhaps a couple of years old. In this fic. Spike is abducted by demon slavers and taken to a brothel in another dimension. It seem that vampires are looked down upon by purebred demons and are considered to be fit only to used, tortured and abused as sex slaves. I remember that time moves differently in the slave dimension, so that although for the Scoobies, Spike has only been missing for a few days, for Spike it has been years. I can't remember how Buffy discovers Spike's fate. I do know that the Scoobies aren't particularly anxious to go rescue him until they see a video which graphically details the fate of any vampire taken as a slave. They won't allow Dawn to see the video. Of course, Dawn was concerned about Spike even before they found out about the slave ring. Xander is sickened by events shown on the video and doesn't think that even a vampire deserves that kind of torture and abuse. I think that it is Willow who discovers a spell to access the slave dimension. I believe that Buffy, Xander and Willow go undercover there to rescue Spike. I know that when they find him, he doesn't speak or seem to even remember who he is. He cowers away from everyone. It seems that there is a spell that keeps any of the vampires from leaving the slave dimension. I think they turn to dust or something if they try to escape. I don't think Buffy and Co. had discovered a way to get Spike back to Sunnydale. Again, I don't know if this fic was ever finished or not. I don't even know if I've gotten all the details straight, but I hope I've gotten enough right that someone will remember this fic.
Thanks in advance for any help that anyone out there can give me. :)
