DISCLAIMER: All characters from Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel the Series featured in the stories below belong to Mutant Enemy, UPN, and/or Joss Whedon. They are not mine, although I love to play with them. Alas, I make no money from them. In the case that I may create an original character to play with inside the Buffyverse, it will be noted as such in the description.
