Title: Here, Your Wandering One
Author: Maren
Rating: R
Pairing: Buffy/Angel
Summary: San Francisco seems like a good place for a fresh start.
Author’s Note: Title from Judy Garland’s San Francisco. I haven’t read the comics and have no idea if this fits with those or not. Consider it post-NFA just to be safe. Written for IWRY 2007 Marathon.
Thanks to redbrickrose for the beta. Also thanks to minim_calibre for the notes. You'll notice two different endings-- Hannah liked it one way and Min liked it the other, so I've included the alternate ending at the bottom for you as well :)

Title: iv. sins of the father (part of Mind Fuck)
Author: Maren
Pairing: Buffy/Giles
Rating: Adult
Warning: incestuous underovertones, daddy!kink, spanking
Author Note: You know that dirty Buffy/Connor I posted way back in July? And you know how I said it was part of this fic I was (am?) writing, Mind Fuck: Five Fantasies Buffy Never Had? Well, here's another part. It's out of chronological order, but I have absolutely no idea if I'll ever finish the whole thing (it's part ii-- a Buffy/Xander non-con fantasy-- that's giving me trouble) so I'm going ahead and posting this. For neverneverfic, who is probably even dirtier than I am *g*.

A few entries for the very fun 4th of July Femslash Porn Battle at femslash_today.

Faith/Liz (BtVS/Roswell crossover)

Buffy/Liz (BtVS/Roswell crossover)


You should go play! There are tons of prompts and anything that will fit in one comment box fits the bill.

Also, in case you missed them, southernbangel wrote two connected Buffy/Gunn ficlets. One of them is dirty porn! Buffy's Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day and Playing the Game.

I have been working on a fic titled Mind Fuck: Five Fantasies Buffy Never Had for. . . a while now. It is a fic with pairings I don't normally write (except for one, but I couldn't resist the Buffy/Faith)and because it's a fantasies fic it is in many ways about the forbidden. With the warnings I'll have to put on it, I'm not sure how many people will be interested in reading to be honest.

At the current time I have 3 of the 5 finished and the themes/characters of the other two but I've also had a complete block since April in which on average I get maybe three sentences of writing done a week and even that is a struggle. So I've decided to go ahead and post the first ficlet of the 5 fantasies fic as a standalone, with the disclaimer that if I ever finish the full fic you'll see this again. The other two are squicky enough (to me) that I'm not sure if I'll post them without the context of the entire fic but we'll see.

Anyway, this is a big lead-up for less than 1,000 words *g*
