Feels Like I'm Falling

Title: Chains Forged
Status: Multi-chaptered - complete
Rating: PG-15 for a bit of language
Summary: Dean's decided Christmas is a load of crap. There's someone out there who thinks he needs reminding of otherwise.
Warning: None

Disclaimer: Supernatural and all related characters are copyright Eric Kripke, Kripke Enterprises & The CW Network. No infringement intended. Buffy the Vampire Slayer and all related characters are copyright Joss Whedon and ME. No infringement intended. Title is from a quote from Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol.
Notes: This was written for Krystal for the Christmas Capper that went on at Route 66. She knew I had a plot bunny that wouldn't leave me alone and so told me to run with it. This is the result. I actually think it would've been longer and more detailed if time hadn't gotten away from me. Still, hope you like it, Krystal! Merry Christmas!

A Fresh Start

Title: Darkness I Live In
Rating: R
Pairing: Buffy/Dean
Summary: After a demon attack, Buffy wakes up with no memories except her name and begins to travel with Dean and Sam. While on the road, Buffy and Dean grow closer. Post Chosen. (I so suck at summaries, lol.)

The title of the story was inspired by Mary Lou Von Meter's poem, Heart of Darkness. Banner made by the awesome Mel. ^_^

Summary: Buffy and Dean have disliked each other from the first time they met. But with their situation, feelings are bound to change.

Notes: This was written for tamingthemuse (prompt: Seychelles). And really, I was going to update DILI but this wouldn't leave me alone. I got the idea after rereading Separate Beds by LaVyrle Spencer (it's an old favorite of mine) and so the main idea should be credited to her. I'm just trying to put my own spin on it.

Not my best work but oh well! LOL. I got it done. ^_^
