on the look out...

I was reading girlwithjournal's post-Chosen story where Randy Giles wakes up in a crater that used to be SunnyD and wonders what the heck is going on, especially since the last thing he remembers is fighting vampires with Superhero!Joan. It's a fun and cool read.

However...

It has inspired in me this huge hankering right now to read some fun post-Chosen Spuffy fanfic. Something that can have some amount of angst, but also is either funny, or adventurous, or something. I want something that's a good story but won't make me cry.

Anyone got any recs?

Hey, the way I figure it, coming back from the dead changes ya'. Especially if you've been burning with joy. But look at Buffy. Before she died, she was all devoted to her friends and quippy and spunky, and ok, kinda stressed and upset at the end, and then she came back as a numb faker who turned abusive and then spent a whole year without making a facial expression other than "pinched." And that was when she was better. So I figure, if Spike's getting all psyched up about being a monk and using Flanderisms for swears and pulling a burning bush at the drop of a hat, I figure, hey. He still loves Buffy, and he's still annoying Giles. That's Spike. :)

And yup. Comedy. So it gets away with it. I still love the pompous Gilespeak, even if it is OOC.
