Floundering Around in the Dark

Wow...this is something I've stewed over off and on for a while, but it just popped into my head, full blown this morning and out of my fingers in the last half hour, with almost now editing. It hasn't been beta'd or anything...but I had to put it out there...so:

Title: My Heroes Have Always Been Demons
Fandom: Angel, the Series
Characters/Pairings: Angel, Wesley, Spike (brief glimpses of Angel/Wes developing)
Setting: Post series
Rating: G-PG

Summary: In my world, Wesley doesn't die, and he and Angel talk about the things Angel thought about before signing away his rights to the Shanshu prophecy to prove to the Black Thorn that he was bad. Mostly from Wesley's point of view, in Angel's words, about Spike.

Warnings: allusion to character death, severe amounts of angst.

( Heroes and Demons )

My assignment was for a slash story with any two characters from: Angel/Spike/Xander/Wesley/Giles

It was requested by Claire/mirasol with the following:

Up to three things you would like included in your story: aspidistra, sea-green, "wax on, wax off"
Up to three things you would not like in the story: I'm easy, I don't mind. :)
Rating preference: R to NC-17 (but I'll take lower if the author isn't happy with this)

So...I tossed it around and what follows is what came out of it. It's my first Xander/Spike fic, and its also told in first person (which is new and different for my fan fic) from Xander's point of view. The particulars are:

Title: Two Can Play
Fandom: BtVS
Pairing: Spike/Xander
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Contains sex. Male homosexual sex. Don't read if you don't like.
Spoilers: Through end of BtVS, takes place post series
Disclaimer: Not mine...never were...I take them out and play when I'm bored though...

Summary: Spike and Xander...with sex...and a happy ending....not to mention the other stuff, as requested!
