Summary
In a world where soulmates have the ability to write on each other's skin, Spike finds himself shackled to a five-year-old Buffy, who (for once) listens to her mother's advice about not handing out personal information. With no way of tracking the annoyance down, Spike is forced to endure a decade of unavoidable communication.
When Spike finally arrives in Sunnydale and discovers his soulmate is none other than the Slayer, he revels in the notion of a destined death match, but the Powers That Be have other plans...

Summary
Buffy is ashamed of him, Spike knows. But when no one else is around, she touches him like she could love him.
(In which Spike makes a damn good cup of coffee, watches a sunrise or two, and plays confidant to a Slayer who thinks dying to save the world would've been easier than this.)

Summary
Far out in the ocean, where the waters are clear, and cold, and blue as the sapphires we mine from under the earth, it is very, very deep.
A story about being alive.

Summary
“I don’t know that animals converse the way we do,” says Marianne. She looks at Claude’s image in the mirror: at the places where his own hair falls into his face, at the familiar angle of his bent neck, edged in lamplight. “But if they live around each other long enough, they start to be able to understand each other. The meaning of the sounds they make, and their movements… It’s a different sort of language, I suppose.”
Marianne makes herself at home.

Summary
She looks like something out of one of his stories. No, she looks like she has a good story or two of her own to tell, this Marianne; sweet-voiced and steady-eyed, everything and nothing at all like he remembers.
He’s sure it must be the mirror of his own expression he sees in her face a beat later, when her gaze comes up to meet his—naked surprise, then recognition. A flicker of doubt. Recognition again.
In which Claude and Marianne arrive at the same place by different roads.
