ooking for a fic where Spike is send back to the beginning of season 6. He isn`t allowed to keep his soul because it would disrupt the balance of the world or something like that.
In the end Spike explains his situation to Giles when Whistler shows up and he asks him when he is supposed to get his soul back.

Any ideas?

Here a better description from [info]o_bugger :

After the battle in NFA, Spike is speaking to a special being, not a demon. I don't know if it offered or if Spike wished, but they were talking about traveling back to fix things, but unable to travel back past Buffy's death by her jump into the portal. Spike wishes he could have reacted to Buffy differently, and he's sent back to the fight in the abandoned house from Smashed, and this time says no to having sex. Buffy and Spike grow closer, and she thinks about his rejection in the abandoned house when she decides to get a haircut. Spike calls up Giles to come back to Sunnydale, and Giles is very resistant to him. At the very end, Whistler shows up in the kitchen with Giles and Spike and wants to tell Giles about the soul.


Any other time travel fics you think are worth reading? Pairing doesn`t matter besides that Spike is part of it XD

Try Dreamweaver's "His Way" and also "Her Way". They can be found here:

The fic you mention definitely rings a bell with me but for the life of me I can't remember the title or author.

A bit of a different take on a time travel fic is Anticipation by 2writers4spike. Final chapter up on Friday so almost complete if you don't like WIPs.

I've been combing the Bloodshedverse trying to find the fic I think you're looking for, but I can't find it. Maybe it was in another archive. I thought some extra details might help if this is the one you're looking for, and soemone else knows what it's called.

After the battle in NFA, Spike is speaking to a special being, not a demon. I don't know if it offered or if Spike wished, but they were talking about traveling back to fix things, but unable to travel back past Buffy's death by her jump into the portal. Spike wishes he could have reacted to Buffy differently, and he's sent back to the fight in the abandoned house from Smashed, and this time says no to having sex. Buffy and Spike grow closer, and she thinks about his rejection in the abandoned house when she decides to get a haircut. Spike calls up Giles to come back to Sunnydale, and Giles is very resistant to him. At the very end, Whistler shows up in the kitchen with Giles and Spike and wants to tell Giles about the soul. (I can't remember if Spike didn't know until that point that they had taken his soul and was angry about that's why how making the right choices was so hard, or if that's in another fic.)

Don't know if this will help.

I'm not sure that I've read this one (or maybe I just don't remember it).
*checks* I knew I had a link to "Huge List of Buffy/AtS Time-Travel Fics":
http://blazingfirewolf.livejournal.com/20912.html Maybe you'll see the title there.

*blush* Bad memory - I've read the story at TSR, being late catching up with the [livejournal.com profile] seasonal_spuffy entries. I think I have to reread it again. :D
