Welcome to the Watchers' Compound, home of my Buffy the Vampire Slayer fanfiction. All the stories found here feature one of more of our wonderful Watchers - Giles and Wesley - as a main character. Please do come in, look around, have a cup of cybertea in honor of Giles, and enjoy!

Just a note - sometimes life on the Hellmouth can get scary, and there's romance to be found as well. All these stories are CLEARLY rated, so please, please, PLEASE if you are underage or easily offended, do yourself (and me) a favor and DO NOT read the ones that might get you in trouble!!!

A huge thanks to Koala for providing my favorite picture of Buffy and Giles!

Barren Ground

Uh-oh, Willow's speaking to me again, ordering me to release stasis spells and write non-Transformations Universe stories. I'm going to have to be stubborn about the whole spell thing, but I do have his little character piece, set a day or two after the events of The Grave... Rated PG for adult themes and general angstiness.


Winter is Cold, and Bitter

This could be considered the final story taking place in the Transformations Universe (don't worry--I am still working on Trust, and I'm pretty sure there are other stories to be told as well). The action takes place thirty years in the future: people have changed, there's a great deal of water under the bridge, but some ties aren't meant to be broken. Rating: PG-13 for general angstiness, mentions of character deaths.
