Rating: PG

Fic: Nightlights (1/1) Buffy, Buffy/Spike, R

[penny-lane-42.livejournal.com]

Title:  Nightlights
Author:  Lirazel (penny_lane_42 )
Characters/Pairings:  Buffy, Buffy/Spike
Time: Season 6, post-"Gone," pre-"As You Were"
Genre: Angst
Rating: R
Warning: Gratuitous use of Keats's "Ode to a Nightingale." He would hate me for the way I've cannibalized his poem. Also, a reference or two to Byron. Clearly, no one should let me anywhere near the Romantic poets.
Summary:  "There's nothing tender about the night."  Buffy is not the slightest bit in love with easeful death.

( there's nothing tender about the night )
