Darla and Spike, the rarest pair in the polycule. The wonderfully caustic blondes. I think this might be one of the rarest non-crack pairs in the fandom, honestly, though they lived together for at least 20 years. We might not see them interact much with each other on-screen but we know they absolutely DID away from our view. There's so much room to fill in there in that negative space, and with two characters who have such compelling forces of personality.

Here's some of my favourites from what exists.

Warning: Some of these fics are hosted on old archives, warnings may be absent or non-exhaustive. They may contain, amongst other things, noncon and torture and oodles of murders. If you want detailed or specific warnings for a fic, please DM me or ask in the notes.

Sinews of the Heart by icemink - After Angel refuses to turn Darla, she goes looking for another member of her family to save her from the illness that is killing her. Gorgeous. Beautiful characterisation. I would happily read 5 million words more of this if it existed. Rating: Explicit, Era: A:tS Season 2/BtVS Season 5 Fearful Symmetry by icemink - Oh hey more DOES exist. This is the continuation of Sinews of the Heart. Sadly it seems to be a perma-WiP at 15 chapters, but it's still very worth reading. While Sinews is pure Spike/Darla, this one's working towards a Spike/Darla/Angel pairing. Rating: Explicit, Era: A:tS Season 2, Incomplete Lessons on a Ledge by icemink - A fun little smutty romp. Spike's troublemaking leaves Darla and him stranded, however will they pass the time? Rating: Explicit, Era: 1880

Family Reunion by Glassdarkly - Darla was afraid that without a soul she wouldn't be able to love her son. What if she was wrong? Or right, depending on your perspective. I'm beginning to think I'm unable to do a rec list without at least one Glassdarkly fic. Family Reunion is brutal, dark, and enthralling. When this author warns you it's one of their darkfics, you better listen to them, they're a master of the craft, it's a horror tale that will stab you in the gut then twist the blade. The location setting in this tale is one of my absolute favourites, it's so perfectly detailed you feel present there with every sense, it's as much a character as any of the humans or demons. Rating: Explicit, Era: 2007 (mostly) Paternity Suit by Glassdarkly - Did I at least one? Make that a few. This one sees Darla tracking Spike down after The Gift/Heartthrob with a task in mind and hoo boy does it hit right in the soft places. Darla at her ruthlessly cunning bestworst, and Spike at his broken apart inside crumpled up bestworst. Rating: Mature, Era: AU Post-BtVS Season 5 Brief Encounter by Glassdarkly - At a time of change and a final parting of the ways, a long-kept family secret comes to light. A post-war piece that, among other things, answers why Spike was so suspicious of Angel in School Hard in contrast to their time on the submarine. Vividly evocative descriptions and atmosphere as always, fantastic historical detail too. Rating: Mature, Era: 1947

Revenge by DeborahMM - Darla grows tired of Angelus's attentions to Drusilla and decides to take her revenge. Exquisitely naughty and a bit bloody. Rating: Explicit, Era: 1880 or 1881

Giving Him The Moon by Peasant - Okay so this is actually a Fanged Four piece, and the primary ships in it are Angelus/Spike and probably Darla/Angelus, but damn if it doesn't have some of my absolute favourite Darla and fledgling Spike interactions, and it's a lovely take on Darla in particular. It's Spike being forced to learn Fyarl and a nice take on the frustrations of struggling to learn a new language. Rating: Explicit, Era: 1887

Triangles Are Falling by lillianmorgan - A delicious messed up encounter between punk Spike and Farrah-hair Darla that has some gorgeous character voices and a sneaky lil sting in the tail. Rating: Explicit, Era: 1977 Entertainment and Spectacle by lillianmorgan - A double drabble. What Darla sees in William, and what William sees in Darla. There's something so vividly intense about the dynamic Lillian crafts between these two. Rating: Teen+, Era: Victorian Cracking the Code by lillianmorgan - A lovely little moment on the way to the theatre. The language here is just a delight, derring-do indeed! Rating: Teen+, Era: Victorian Raging Against the Dying Light by lillianmorgan - Ah, poor dumb Spike all hopped up and out of his head on Slayer blood and on his most gloriously dumb shit vs Darla at one of her worst moments bound up in loss. Rating: Mature, Era: 1900

Cold Comfort by ash_carpenter - Spike recognises that he and Darla are alike in envy and the craving of attention/affection from the other two, and gives her a little comfort or something akin to it. Bittersweet and beautiful. Rating: Mature, Era: Victorian

Idle Threats Does Not A Greatgrandsire Make by FemailoftheSpecies - Just working something out. Conflict resolution. A lil bit of brutal fun. Rating: Explicit, Era: Victorian Creative Differences by FemailoftheSpecies - William and Darla don't see eye to eye. Darla and Angelus, but it's all about William. A funny lil ficlet, with poetry. Of a sort. Rating: Mature (after a fashion), Era: Victorian

Waiting Room by loraineee - A liminal encounter. Just a conversation in the space between. Brief yet intriguing. Rating: Teen+, Era: Post-B:tVS Season 7, Pre-A:tS Season 5

Decadent by Kate Bolin - Darla deserves worship. Spike is barely worthy. A gorgeous fragment of reverence. Ecstasy and agony. Rating: Mature, Era: Unclear

Static by Foxinator - Another between-seasons piece in the summer following Season 5 of BtVS. Darla's looking for Dru to get some insight into what's happening to her body, but she runs into a grieving Spike instead. Just a moment, a conversation, but it captures the characters at a time so strange and pivotal for each of them. Rating: G, Era: Post-BtVS Season 5, Pre-BtVS Season 6

The Queen by aliceinsunnydale - The Illustrated A to Z Guide of Sex Positions for Women explains The Queen as: Get your subject to kneel at your feet and don't give them permission to rise until they've earned either a knighthood or your royal approval to stay for the night. A delicious pwp in a tailor's shop. Rating: Explicit, Era: Victorian

Sitting Together, Simply Observing by aliceinsunnydale - 'More often than not, when in court, Darla and Spike could be found sitting together, simply observing.' A quiet moment of bonding, quite sweet. Rating: G, Era: Victorian Spike/Darla - Five Times Kissed by aliceinsunnydale - Just as the title says. A nice series of snapshots mapping the changing ways the two see each other. Rating: Mature, Era: Pre-Series (Victorian through 1970s)

Home Sweet Home by Rebcake - When Spike is introduced in School Hard, it's clear he's been in Sunnydale before. Rebcake is a master of drabbles, and this is no exception. Rating: Teen+, Era: 1950s

Lessons from the Lady of the House by joycometh - Darla gives William a sorely needed education in a certain subject. Both delightful and amusing. Poor clueless Will or, rather, poor Drusilla. Rating: Explicit, Era: 1880

A Brighter Shade of Darkness by brutti ma buoni - Spike can learn a lot from Darla. He doesn't always enjoy it. A rather illuminating lil ficlet. Rating: Teen+, Era: 1893

Bloody Unnatural by snickfic - A missing scene, a moment of connection. Warm and caring and quite lovely, in a bittersweet way. Rating: Teen+, Era: BtVS Season 6 A Right Sorry Couple of Vamps by snickfic - Alive and human again, all Darla wants is the brief illusion of freedom, and maybe a beer. Naturally, she's just thrilled when she finds Spike, too...Another one that's quite sweet and caring, in an odd way. Rating: Teen+, Era: AtS Season 2

I'm Not Supposed To Be Like This by spuffyduds - Another missing scene in the summer of Buffy's death and Darla's pregnancy. This one may not be so warm and caring, but dang if it doesn't have some brilliant and funny moments instead. Features the Buffybot, too. Rating: Maure, Era: Post-BtVS Season 5, Pre-BtVS Season 6

The Point by carlyinrome - A neat little drabble. What is the point in William? Rating: Mature, Era: Victorian

Waiting For Alice by thawrecka - He is not afraid. She is not bothered. It is not real. When Spike is dragged over and over to that place, she is there. They cling to each other. Beautiful and bleakly arresting. Rating: Teen+, Era: A:tS Season 5

Vantage Ground by _-SuN-_ - Vivid imagery and lush lyrical language. Darla in the aftermath of her loss, spiralling, as she travels with the two children of the family. Rating: Mature, Era: Victorian

Adult Education by Vampire_Penguin - Darla teaches both her boys a lesson. Darla/Spike with Angelus kinda in the mix or, at least, very much adjacent. Wantonly wicked in the best kind of way. Rating: Mature (pushing Explicit), Era: Victorian

Darla: The Series by dessert_first - Okay but what if Angel Investigations but it was Darla's show instead of Angels, post-NFA instead of an AU, key roles gender-flipped, and yer dead favourites got screen time. Sadly this is a WiP last updated in 2005, but it's worth a read for some awesome moments and a brilliant set-up. Mostly ensemble with a lil Sparla in there. Rating: Explicit (in ch5), Era: Post-A:tS Season 5

Key to My Heart

Summary: In the Buffy the Vampire Slayer tie-in book "Prime Evil," the villain named Shugra--who posed as a Sunnydale High teacher--messed with Buffy's mind some (in sensing that she could be a threat to her plans, and wanting to shake her confidence) and gave her panic attacks around her. And in not being able to sense anything wrong with her, Buffy began to think that she was going insane for having such a reaction around her. The night the threat is vanquished--and she and Angel are relaxing, just trying to catch their breath--Angel asks Buffy why she never told him that she doubted herself in such a way. (You don't need to read "Prime Evil" to understand this fanfic.) Set during Buffy S3. Bangel. Birthday gift for @bisexualblckcanary.

Key to My Heart

Buffy was spending time in the mansion with Angel, after the defeat of Shugra.

The Slayer knew it was probably getting old to think such things—and surely cliché—but she really hadn’t been sure that they were going to be able to win this one. The witch had been super powerful: much more than Amy Madison’s mother had been. And she’d had so many of Sunnydale’s youth under her thumb, willing to give her power in order to see their “wildest dreams come true.” And many of her followers had been powerful, themselves, like Michael and Anya. And when the witch had put Willow out of commission, so that she couldn’t use any spells, Buffy had thought there’d be no way to stop Shugra’s plans for the Hellmouth.

But they’d persevered, once again. This time, because she and Angel had been willing to dip their toes into spellcasting. And the others—including Buffy’s own mother—had given Buffy their strength once more and it had been enough to see everything done, once Willow had convinced Shugra’s followers to not buy what the sorceress was selling.

"Buffy… was it because you think I'm crazy—the Angelus part of me, I mean--that made you not tell me you thought you were losing your mind before?" Angel asked completely out of the blue, as he lied behind her on the couch and continued to stroke her hair, much like he had earlier in the night before they went into the final battle against the woman.

She knew what Angel was talking about, of course: another of her absolute favorite traits about this villain, Buffy thought sarcastically: she somewhat messed with the Slayer’s mind at the start of everything to make her doubt herself. And that was something Buffy hadn’t realized she was doing at the time; and since she had sensed nothing about the threat—her usual spidey sense not tingling—to explain why she was giving her panic attacks, Buffy had thought she was losing it.

"Of course not, Angel,” Buffy was quick to reassure her boyfriend, gently rolling towards him and cupping his face now. She knew how sensitive he was about how he’d been when he… wasn’t himself. And understood why he was questioning her about this.

People were supposed to be honest with each other if they dated, weren’t they? And while the two of them sometimes did have trouble with that, Buffy knew that they both aimed for that with each other, and of course wanted it to be an aspect of their relationship. If she’d known Angel hadn’t told her something like this, she would have been curious, too.

That, however, didn’t mean that she was exactly comfortable talking about it now. Or that she was entirely happy that he’d brought it up, when they were supposed to be relaxing, forgetting all of the Shugra stuff. Even if she did understand it.

“So, then what-” Angel started, moving gently so that Buffy was now sitting on the sofa, and then following suit. He looked at her with penetrating, confused eyes. But Buffy was already cutting his question off with, “Thinking there was maybe something wrong with me… was something I could barely face.” It was enough that Buffy had been in an Insane Asylum once, when her parents had thought she’d gone coocoo for Cocoa Puffs—and a part of Buffy wondered if Angel knew about that, since it seemed that he’d been around when she’d first been Called in L.A.—so she’d only just been able to tell her Watcher about all of that. So to then tell Angel that there was something wrong with her? Buffy hadn’t even been able to imagine it.

“…And I wanted you to know it least of all,” Buffy finished lamely. And only after she said the words, did she realize that it was lame. Because surely, Angel would tell her that it was exactly when she was hurting so much, and clearly needed him, that she should tell him things the most.

But Angel seemed to show mercy on her—perhaps realizing that she really did want to return to the lighter mood of the night—as he smiled ever so slightly and attempted to play it off with, "…I guess that makes sense. It would kind of be like me when I didn’t want my parents to know I did badly on a test."

Buffy had to blink at Angel owlishly at least three times before she laughed slightly, because she did know Angel was trying to make her feel better about everything tonight, and pushed her boyfriend in the arm. After all, it wasn’t like him to be so tactless. Usually, it was her. "Wow, Angel. I can't believe you made that comparison. But knowing you're from a time where people didn't talk about their feelings—and also what a big deal bad marks would have been with stricter parents, I guess—I suppose I’ll allow it.”

“Just as long as I know I am ‘allowed’ things,” Angel said shyly now, playing with Buffy’s left hand and refusing to meet Buffy’s eyes. Even though he was twisting some of her last words, Buffy thought she understood what he was asking: “Would she try to tell him things from now on?” Especially since she had gotten around to explaining all of this eventually?

Well, Buffy did think that honesty was the best policy, of course. Some of her and Angel’s problems in the past were no doubt because they hadn’t spoken enough.

And Willow, recently, hadn’t been wrong, when she’d told Buffy “that��s how it should be,” about her and Angel really talking after he’d ripped out the heart of a demon and fed it to her.

So Buffy found that definitely she could agree to this, so long as Angel understood that there would be times that she might need time to organize her thoughts first.

“Of course you’re allowed the key to my heart, honey,” Buffy replied, putting her hands on her hips. She tried to say it in a matter-of-fact way, so it seemed less like she was quoting some cheesy romance novel or one of those Japanese cartoons that Xander loved so much, but she supposed she still might have sounded like one of those.

Because, after all, what she’d said was just too true. She was in love, after all.

And even when Angel would eventually stand a far distance away from her, and stare her down before leaving to go to L.A.—breaking her heart into a million microscopic pieces in the process—it would still be true.

Author's Note: I started this fic a long time ago, but while I could figure out the main parts of the conversation I wanted these two to have, I had a hard time with the things beyond that: namely the ending. I’m still not entirely sure, but whatever. I will say it’s better than some things I tried.

I just really wanted to finish this fic for bisexualblckcanary on Tumblr’s birthday this week. I hope you like it, honey:)

Moment of Pain

SUMMARY: Wesley get's out of the hospital and goes home. No one picks him up and no one is there when he shuts his front door.

After the first time, no one comes to visit Wesley in his hospital room.

Instead he lays in silence, trapped inside himself and wrapped in grief while nurses plug tubes into him and remind him not to speak, the ceiling white overhead and unyielding.

They don't know.

They don't know what he's done.

How wrong he was.

They don't know anything and they shuffle 'round like white ghosts, doing their jobs and knowing nothing.

Eventually they let him go and send him home with medicine and prescriptions and not a fucking clue more.

They don't know and no one is there to pick him up.

If his parents know they haven't been in contact.

If they know he doesn't want them to contact him.

He takes a cab home.

Wesley reaches his own door and stops, door unchanged and horribly, horribly ordinary.

He stands outside it until he can't any more and turns the key.

It's dark inside. Everything the same, nothing the same. . . Things laying where he'd left them. Where he'd left them before. Back when he'd had friends. Back when everything had made sense and there might have been flowers and cards.

Now there's just silence and grief and darkness anf things laying where another man had left them.

He sets his bags down by the door and goes to his bedroom.

He's spent the last few weeks on his back, staring up at the horrible, white, unyielding ceiling and it's cruel flourecent lights. . . feeling the nurses plugging tubes into him and hearing their little reminders not to speak. People coming and going, never faces he recognizes and all of it under that horrible, white, unyielding ceiling.

He toes his shoes off and climbs onto the bed, laying down and trying not to feel anything.

He's feeling too much, he has been this whole time.

Every failure in his life is screaming, echoing between his ears and up his nose, in his eyes. . . every mistake he's ever made and there are so many. . .

He's made so many mistakes and when he opens his eyes and dares to look up he sees white, unyielding ceiling.

But it's his ceiling.

In his home.

In his bedroom.

In his hell.

His own private hell.

Except that's selfish, isn't it? There's a real kid, a baby in a real hell and he's just sweating under a white ceiling, laying in silence, trapped inside himself and wrapped in grief.

Everyone hates him.

Everyone hates him and there's a real baby in a real hell and everyone hates him and it's all his fault.

He wants to punish himself, he think's some kind of pain would be good. He's so familiar with pain now. Everyone is but everyone isn't here. It's just him in his room, with his white ceiling and the lights off.

Shoes off.

The world wrong.

Everything upside down.

He imagines screaming but he can't. Not yet.

He imagines shutting himself in his closet, something like what his father had done to him as a child only he isn't a child anymore. It's okay to do those things to him now, to hurt him because now he deserves it. Now he's fucked up and he can't take it back. He doesn't know where to go from here.

He curles up and doesn't go to the closet, another act of selfishness.

Angel should have finished the job.

He's supposed to be a dead man.

You're a dead man, Pryce!

Dead!

He weeps then, if he can't scream or speak or do anything else he can still do that and the reality of it all crushes him in his hot, dark, little room, killing him under his white, unyielding ceiling.

In his hell.

HIs private hell.

Only Connor is in real hell.

He's topside and walking around.

This isn't how it's supposed to be. Everything had seemed so certain but he's had time in the hospital bed to think these things over, again and again. Weeks to come to terms with what happened only he can't. He just can't yet.

Everything is wrong.

He'd doubled checked everything only it hadn't mattered.

It had all been wrong from the start.

He lays and can't get up, can't move, can't turn on a light.

He lays in silencbtvs

He lays in silence, trapped inside himself and wrapped in grief while the room grows hotter and the lights stay off.

Everything is wrong.

Everything is so wrong.

Stupid Idea:

Angel themed? #29 ? I give up with numbers, I'm far too inconsistent to organize this way.

Anyways, my document literally says: "What if joss wheadon wasn’t a little bitch and had angel get affected by billy "

Which basically translates to when the charecter Billy whose blood makes men misogynistic to the max (ex. Murder for breathing) it effects Wesley and Gunn but not Angel because... he lost the "primordial misogyny" when he became an evil demon because Angelus killed for pleasure not hatred (this is me paraphrasing the wiki thank you wiki for not making me dig through a transcript at midnight <3)

So how about that reasoning isn't valid as a fic idea and Angel isn't exempt from having his already present implicit bias amplified?

#buffyverse #angel the series #fic inspiration #fic prompt #btvs angel #tw misogyny #tw murder #joss whedon critical #(is there a standard tag for that? or is it unneeded?)#stupid idea

if i win the lottery i promise i'll spend some of it trying to get modern day FUFFY on the air. a youtube skit, a Folgers coffee ad, a 10 minute extended trailer for a Rizolli and Isles remake, a guest spot on Yellowjackets S3 as a couple who are friends with maybe Taissa, a guest spot on ALOTO S3 with them as maybe small town ranch hands who help the players get their bus out of the mud, a 5 episode Netflix special. something!

#btvs #fuffy #faith x buffy #modern day AU #i know neither of them need money and can be picky about what they do #and they are also sort of busy already #SMG with wolf pack aka her little wolf show #Eliza with her 2 little babies #but seriously how can i make this happen #it would be hilarious if it was a Netflix series actually #because you know that shit would get cancelled mid season for being too gay #also I guess some of these are fic ideas

Fandom: Angel (set in my BtVS x Hellblazer crossover verse)

Ships: Angel/Spike, background Spike/Constantine, Spike & Harmony, Buffy/Angel, & Buffy/Spike

"I'm sorry," Gunn says, "time out, did you just call him Daddy?!" "Angel is Spike's grandsire," Wesley says. "Oooh." Lorne nods, like everything make sense now. "They're family. That explains it."

any coffy fic recs?

I’m very weird about them, I LOVE the ship and think that it was canon in the sense that they had a weird thing for each other, but don’t think it should’ve been canon in the sense of them getting together, if that makes sense. BUT that doesn’t mean I don’t love reading about hypotheticals! so yeah, any coffy fic recs would be gladly appreciated. preferably set in the canon universe (which includes the birthdayverse or wishverse) but if it’s a really really good AU then I’ll still give it a shot :)

Oh hey, it's a Buffyverse Hanahaki Fic Challenge! Go nuts with your Hanahaki AUs. There are surprisingly few in the fandom, let's correct that! From Fanlore: Hanahaki Disease (花吐き病 (Japanese); 하나하키병 (Korean); 花吐病 (Chinese)) is a fictional disease in which the victim coughs up flower petals when they suffer from one-sided love. It ends when the beloved returns their feelings (romantic love only; strong friendship is not enough), or when the victim dies. It can be cured through surgical removal, but when the infection is removed, the victim's romantic feelings for their love also disappear. The term hanahaki comes from the Japanese words hana (花), which means "flower", and hakimasu (吐きます), which means "to throw up".

The symptoms of the disease are summarized to strong pain, having flowers blooming in the heart and lungs, and then throwing them up.

This trope has several variations, and is used in both happy and tragic stories. It often develops over months or even years, beginning with coughing up a few petals and growing in intensity (and pain) until the victim is vomiting entire flowers, by which point the disease has entered its final stages.

The happy ending version is when the object of the victim's love returns their affections, thus making the love no longer unrequited. The victim is then cured of the disease. This may happen spontaneously when the object of affections realizes his (it's usually a him) love, or the disease may require the object to persuade the victim that their love is mutual. If the victim cannot believe that his beloved returns his love, he will die.

Another popular version is when the victim's lungs get filled with the flowers and roots grow in their respiratory system. They choke on their own blood and petals, and die. It is popular due to the angst that comes with character death.

There are also works where the flowers are surgically removed, as are the victim's feelings of love, meaning they can no longer love the person they once loved. Sometimes this also removes their memories of the former beloved, or the victim's ability to ever love again. Often, the one suffering the disease will refuse the surgery, preferring to die rather than losing their feelings.

Many artists and authors tend to use cherry blossoms as the flower of the petals that characters cough up, although it's not uncommon for the flower to be something significant to the characters. Flower symbolism is also popular in western fandom, for example to represent the victim's affections or personality, or that of their loved one. Please, go nuts! Make it angst, humour, hurt/comfort, hurt/no comfort, fluff, whatever your heart desires! Make it as canon compliant or divergent as ya like. Set it wherever and whenever you wanna! It's just gotta be Buffyverse and it's gotta involve hanahaki somehow. Oh, and no character bashing, please! If the boys are involved somehow, it'd be nice if they had some degree of affection for each other, even if it's well buried (Spangel is an even bigger plus) but really you can do whatever you like! Really, I just think it'd be neat to see the hanahaki trope get some love in the fandom, in any form💗
