Sometimes I find myself with serious anger issues towards Buffy and some of the Scoobies in regards to the way they treat Spike in Season 6 and Season 7.  (What does a guy have to do to get a little sugar??) When I get especially vindictive I imagine him starting over with someone new, someone who sees him as a champion from the start, someone who never considered him beneath her (or him).

Can anyone recommend any fics like this?  I don't mind pairings with other Jossverse characters (like Anya, Tara, etc.) but I'm especially interested in a fic in which the author pairs him with an original character of their own devising.  Bonus points if Buffy and the Scoobs realize they were dicks.

Thanks!

I'm really sorry.  I just realized I posted this here instead of on Finding Buffy Recs by mistake.  I'll repost it over there and if you need to you can just delete this.

Although it is ultimately Spuffy, Prophecy and Loss by bearfacedcheek is about Spike and another Slayer, who is good for him and whom he loves. I thought it was on the BSV, but can't find it there. I read it at the old Buffy-Spike Central. Don't know if it's still there or not. Nothing happens when I google it, so this might be a dead end.

ETA - wrong title - it's Prophecy and Warmth and it's on Spuffy Realm: http://www.spikeluver.com/SpuffyRealm/viewstory.php?sid=3960

*giggles* You're welcome. Would you believe I found the link for her and then have spent the rest of the afteroon/evening rereading it? *sigh* This story gives angst a whole new meaning...

I absolutely believe it -- it's pencilled in for tomorrow's snow day on my agenda! :D

I want to thank you and the poster. I was about to use this forum to ask about this story, except I couldn't remember too much of the plot in the first place. So thanks again!

Oh, there's Friends and Strangers by enigmaticblue. You can find her stories on her website, just google it.

There was a fic I ran across that had Spike on his own in New York City doing the occasional good dead. I think it was after nfa. He decided he needed to get away from the people in LA. He ran across a girl fighting vamps recognizing her as a undertrained slayer. She talking Spike into training her.

Then there is a be fight coming and Angel contacts Spike to come help. I think Buffy and other slayeres were coming as well. Spike comes bringing his slayer. In my imagination Spike's slayer would be a tremendous fighter with "Buffy's moves" as well as Spikes. Was hoping he would show them all up.

No more was posted. I am hoping your search will reveal this piece.
