In which the Scoobies are chill with S6 Spuffy

[rebcake.livejournal.com]

I'm seeking a fic in which Xander goes straight to the Magic Box after walking in on the "blinvisible" sex in Gone, and announces to the Scoobies that Spike and Buffy are doing it. Nobody has a problem with it exactly, except that they want to support Buffy. They keep giving the couple opportunities to come out of the closet, but they are too busy hiding the relationship to notice that everybody already knows and nobody much minds.

It might be part of a larger S6 rewrite. It may have actual plot, but if so I can't remember it. (Watch it be part of Bittersweets or Barb!verse or something... *hangs head*)

I swear I'm getting better at keeping track of fic! It's just that I read so darned much of it back when! ETA: It will probably not surprise anyone to hear that it was this one: Borrowed Time by msclawdia It seems like half the time I'm seeking something here, it turns out to be hers.

It sounds like great fun - I hope somebody can find it!

I guess that means it's not one of yours, then? Too bad. If nobody can find it, consider this a prompt!

[slaymesoftly.livejournal.com]

Nope - that thought crossed my mine too, I'll admit, but I've not gone in that direction. It's possible I could be all over that as a prompt, though.... Depends of if we find out who wrote it, if it was finished, and how much room would be left for a different take on it.

It took months, but I found it!

Borrowed Time by msclawdia

I should have known. She always has excellent ideas in her fics.

[slaymesoftly.livejournal.com]

She does. I miss her!

If you do find it please let me know. It sounds like it could be funny. I wouldn't mind reading it.

Found it!

Borrowed Time by msclawdia

Her stories are always terrific.

I know I recognize that scene, but I can't think where from off the top of my head. I'm almost sure (assuming we're thinking of the same story!) that it's part of a longer story, and possibly a whole season re-write.

Gah!

I know you are one of her biggest cheerleaders, as we all should be. It seems like half the time I'm seeking something here, it turns out to be hers.
