This is a charming Xander/Spike story, with lots of good Xander, newly at AllAboutSpike
www.allaboutspike.com
Shrift has on her home page some very nice Duncan/Methos stories (based on Highlander), with the sex very matter-of-fact and more implied than dramatized, with both Methos and Duncan very credible...and these are not simple characters to render well, especially 5000 year old Methos!

This is a must read for all fans of slash. This series takes place in Season 1 of Angel and revisits many of the episodes. The premise is "What if Spike had shown up in LA after The Initiative instead of going to Buffy."www.shibbybitch.net/ourarmageddon/clockworkvampire.htmlIt's very much Angel & Spike, with lots of sex, some laughs, and some tears. I think it's very well written and I've already read it twice.

There are over 150 stories archived at a site called, Deadboy and Captain Peroxide. The site includes a time line, humongous photo gallery, and an episode guide and transcripts. members.fortunecity.com/deadboy/And, at We Band of Buggered, there are quite a number of slash fics. One of my favorites is Days of Our Unlives. Warning: Lots of bodily fluids, lots of mess, and lots of blood. Also: lots of laughing out loud. Watch out for the beverage by the computer keyboard. It could get spilled. www.bandofbuggered.com/Finally, Impish Eyes has a great story about Spike and Angel called, Time is the Fire in Which We Burn. The host there asks for no advertising, so if you are interested, PM me and I'll send it along. oh, and love the photo at the top of the thread! Even better? There are photos floating around of Angelus kissing wheely-Spike (wheelchair bound). |

This is a wonderful site, full of Angel/Spike stories. There are also some pairings with Wesley and Giles too. But Angel & Spike take center stage on this site.
Here are some stories I highly recommend (you also have to take a gander at her manipulated pics -- they are just wonderful and eye-popping  ;D)
Time is the Fire in Which We Burn (Season 1)
Spike gets his soul back, but he can't find the forgiveness he craves. Having a soul now makes him have to concentrate to be evil. Abandoned by the Sunnydale humans, he has to find a new way give his demonic energy some outlet.
www.squashduck.com/ltd/timefic/index.htm
The Darkling Plain (Season 2) (WIP)
Episode 1 -- A new start; it's what they all need. But a new agency and new apartment only bring new problems for the vampires who try so hard to live in a human world.
This story is the sequel of Time is the Fire in Which We Burn, and it's strongly recommended that you read that story before this one.
www.squashduck.com/ltd/darklingplainfic/index.htm
Episode 2 -- Angel has made a difficult decision, and while he struggles with his love for Spike and Wesley, old promises come back to haunt him.
www.squashduck.com/ltd/darklingplainfic/Ep2/index.htm
Coming soon:
Episode 3 -- "Then he can have my office and my side of the bed."
Spike has finally discovered what he sees as Angel's ultimate betrayal: the forgiveness of Wesley.
www.squashduck.com/ltd/darklingplainfic/ep3/index.htm
She is good at updating at least once a week. Each episode is complete as she updates.
A Touch of Earth
Impressed with Warren's creation, Spike decides to place an order himself. He discovers that it's not so easy to make a robot of your sire.
www.squashduck.com/ltd/earthfic/index.htm
Dark Skies
William meets a stranger at one of his mother's card parties. The echoes of that meeting haunt him, until insane, alone in the basement of Sunnydale High School, he has to find the strength to face the author of his nightmares.
(In this story, Angel and Wesley are estranged due to events surrounding Darla's return, but Connor does not exist.)
www.squashduck.com/ltd/darkskiesfic/index.htm
Who Can I Turn To?
Spike is given back his soul; can Angel help him to cope with it? Spike's trip to LA causes them both to reassess their relationship and their place in the world.
www.squashduck.com/ltd/turnfic/index.htm
Demon Chemistry
Angel begins to use the blood link that allows him to see and hear what Spike is seeing and hearing. This brings back painful memories for both of them. Can they start afresh without the history that threatens to destroy them?
www.squashduck.com/ltd/demonfic/index.htm
The Definition of Normal
Based around the events of 'Normal Again' - Season 6: Spike gets stung by a 'big ugly' and wakes up in rehab clinic... his whole 'life' as Spike, seemingly just a delusion.
www.squashduck.com/ltd/definitionfic/index.htm
Protective Custody
Angel puts Spike in protective custody. He takes on more than he bargained for.
'This creature had created him. It was like finding that God needs you, more than you need him. The whole foundation of Spike's reason for existence shifted under him. He felt as if the earth had trembled. He felt his needed to howl like a dog that feels that tremble and fears what it portends. He felt as if the earth was being breeched and wondered what was being born in this breech birth.
www.squashduck.com/ltd/pcfic/index.htm
Footsteps In the Sand
Sequel to Protective Custody. After the events in Protective Custody, Angel 'gave' Wesley to Spike as a plaything. What does Spike make of the gift?
www.squashduck.com/ltd/footfic/index.htm
As It Was, So Shall It Be
Summoned by Willow, Angel comes to Sunnydale to stop Spike and Buffy's relationship. A spell goes badly wrong, and Angel and Spike are left facing consquences of the past and fear for the future.
www.squashduck.com/ltd/asitwasfic/index.htm
The Longest Distance Between Two Points
Angelus makes a promise to William that changes William's life. Many years later, Angel comes to Sunnydale to remind Spike of that promise. This story has Darla and Drucilla paired with both Angel/us and William/Spike but not explicitly. It also has Angel/Spike/Cordelia in one explicit scene.
www.squashduck.com/ltd/distancefic/index.htm
Remember Me
Spike has just had the tracer removed from his back. To keep them all safe, Giles takes everyone to Angel's in Los Angeles. Angel did not know about the chip and is shocked by the condition of his childe. They shelter at Angel's during a power cut, and the long night brings on intense memories for both vampires.
Angel and Spike find that memories are sometimes not enough.
www.squashduck.com/ltd/rememberfic/index.htm
Learning to Share
Angel takes drastic measures to break the pattern of the Sire / Childe relationship he has with Spike.

What She Deserves and Lovingkindness by Herself, both at AllAboutSpike.
They are basically one quite substantial novel and should be read in sequence. Badly burned/traumatized by his relationship with Buffy, Spike goes to NYC, goes in for S/M punishment, and drifts into a gay relationship. Then enter Buffy.
This is a sad, emotionally truthful, very powerful story of a loving, burnt-out Spike trying not to hurt anyone when he's most grievously hurt himself. Not a funny romp anywhere around here but extremely strong, moving fiction. I'm in tears every time I read it...and I've read it repeatedly.

I agree with everything you said about these stories. I couldn't remember where they were at as I wanted to read them again. If you do read them, make sure you have plenty of Kleenex around. |

This is a wonderful story Caraleigh turned me on it. It's all Spike and Xander and it can be quite heartbreaking in sections. It's very long, up to Chapter 86 now. But she updates every Monday.
We also see the Scoobie Gang in here and Angel. Take a chance and read this one. There is lots of sex and violence in this story, but it's a great read.
The general premise is that Xander finds Spike severely traumatized. It goes from there. Have to say I really like how Xander and Spike and their relationship for that matter are protrayed in this story. There is also a bit of a mystery going on here for some of the other characters too.lazuli.kat.users.btopenworld.com/repossession.htm

New at AAS. Gritty, convincing. Angel and the AI crew (including Spike) have come to clean out Cleveland's Hellmouth--obviously a considerable undertaking. There they find streetfighter Xander: embittered silent outsider whom Spike understands only too well--not the whys, but the whats.

I've read this novel (the two stories, together) at least 3 times. It is one of the best stories to encapsulate Spike's vulnerability and need to be loved - unconditionally. so very good. 3 tissues, at least. |

I think it's the best post-Grave Spike story written. Lovingkindness is heartbreaking. Even if you have just wondered over here because of curiosity, READ THESE STORIES. You will cry. |

There is an unusual story at: www.the-crypt.net. It's by Marie C who is beneath Brandi in the first column of authors' names. A New Life, Changes, Transition, Into the Depths and Into the Light are the sections. Into the Light is a WIP. Spike has been brutalized by humans and has changed into a female vampire. He is rescued by Giles and brought to Angel. Different, but a really great story IMHO. |
