Some of the Buffyverse fic I enjoyed in September

Not Spuffy

Ripper/Jenny ficlet by jenny-calendar ("Intellectually, Buffy knew that the baby had a name...") (worksafe, complete, 2018)
Everyone is cute, nothing hurts, the concept of Ripper's makeup stash makes me happy

Like A Broken Record Plays by geckogirl89 (Groosalugg with background Cangel, 2443 w, PG, complete, 2018)
Groo POV! He was very likable. I rooted for him, not to win Cordelia's hand or anything, but to get his dignity back.

Reinvention by a_sin_and_a_lie (Buffybot, 706w, NC-17, complete, 2018)
Buffybot POV!!! It's probably the least cute Bot story I ever read. Instead, it's angry. I respect that. Mind the warnings.
 

Spuffy

scared of what's behind and what's before by womanaction (MixSaysRawr) (1319 w, M, complete, 2018)
I loved this so much!! It's post-series Spuffy, trying again. And making love and being overwhelmed and precious.

The Scoobies Discover Nature by OffYourBird (8,772 w, NC-17, complete, 2017) and on AO3
Light-hearted fun with camping :)

Ruff Times by othellia (28,206 w for now, PG-13, WIP, 2018, updated a couple of weeks ago)
So in the important genre of Spike-turns-into-an-animal, I think this must be one of the more serious approaches  re: how characters would feel. It's also fun and cute, I like these Scoobies, and the canon divergence is interesting.

Thanks for these. I am enjoying Ruff Times a whole bunch, but haven't seen the others.

Oh, how cool you've found Ruff Times! Good to know.

"Reinvention" was awesome. The world needs more Buffybot POV.
