"The New Counteragent"
Fandom: Invisible Man
The keeper has been fiddling around with the counteragent formula. Her latest formula does end the violent aspects of Quicksilver madness, but does leave the lid off the id. In other words, if Darian has a impulse, such as sucking Bobby's ear, then he will do it, with no interference from other brain functions. He won't be a rapist, just libidinous. Bobby may or may not mind; perhaps he would prefer to have a non-drunken Darian, perhaps he just would like to try to finish the mission.
Extra plot point: Keeper knew the formula would have this effect and wanted to be the object of Darian's attentions.
Slightly non canon assumptions: 1) That the keeper would be messing with the formula. In canon, she has said that she didn't want Darian to become immune, so changing the formula makes sense.
2) Bobby has learned how to administer the shot. Since it only takes half an hour's worth of invisibility to hit QSM, Bobby would have to learn how to give the shots if they are ever to have a mission that takes them more than an hour away from the agency

Xander is a half-demon. Always has been, always will be. (You decide what kind) He was born that way, and will die that way. And this has never caused a problem, because demon or not, he cares about people and wants to help save the world. The only person who knows about it is Tara, who is actually his half-sister (which is why Tara messed up the demon-locator spell). But what happens when a problem comes up that makes this an issue? Will the Scoobies stick by their friends, or dismiss them as being evil?

"Section Thirteen":
Every watched the shows Buffy and or La Femme Nikita or at least read some fan fic about them.....yes.....good this plots for you. While on assignment in Sunnydale Michael and Nikita run into some Hellmouth type trouble and are rescued by Buffy, Willow, Xander, Oz, Giles and Riley. When Michael, Nikita and Birkoff report to Operations and Madeline it is decided that Buffy and Co. must be acquired and made a part of section.

"The Real Ghostbusters…?????"
After everyone has fully grown apart and even Spike has vanished for smoother pastures, (darn it just as he was getting the nerve together to *talk* with him ;) ) Xander decides that it is time to leave the hellmouth and packs up his savings (miserly as they are) and heads across country. In New York his life isn't doing much better (back to the crappy jobs etc) when he sees something he'd only heard of and hoped to avoid.
The... (real) Ghostbusters are trying to take down a ghost, that causes one of the guys to break a leg/get knocked out. Overhearing them shouting that they need the fourth stream to trap the ghost Xander unthinkingly grabs the now spare gear and helps out. The guys are shocked to realize this civilian just helped out as professionally though he was practiced.
Xander calmly gives back the gear and points out that if they routinely need 4 lines present they should bring a 5th with them to avoid this sort of problem.
Somehow Xander ends up helping out and wows the guys with his knowledge/skills. They become *real* friends to him. Maybe he helps Egon/Peter clear up some friendship/relationship issues (thinking back to missed opportunities with Spike possibly if a slash link is looke for). Will probably need to time shift the ghostbusters forward 10 years to keep things more inline between the groups.

"The Tale of the Reweaving":
Have you read the book "WeaveWorld" by Clive Barker....yes....good then you might consider adopting this plot!!! Xander inherits his maternal grandmothers house after she dies. While exploring he finds a book in her bed side table called "Fairy Tales From Around the World". Captivated by the cover he sits down on the bed and starts to read.
The book tells of how along time ago humans and fairies shared this world but eventually the humans drove the fairies into hiding. And how in a desperate act to save the world as they new it they used their magic to weave their land and themselves into a carpet creating a new world with some of them remaining in the human world to guard it. That they were slowly either killed off or died after living a very very long life. It also told of how the carpet was discovered then eventually unwove causing the world of Fairy to once again become part of the human world and how his grandmother saved the Fairies by reweaving the world of Fairy into her book of fairy tales.
Upon finishing the book Xander finds a letter from his grandmother telling him that she didn't really die but went to the world of Fairy to rejoin his grandfather who was one of the leaders there and live out the rest of her life. That she was making him the new guardian of the book and that he was welcome to visit them as often as he liked.

"True Follower"
In order to combat an ancient evil, (maybe Dahok is returning) each of the Scoobies pledges themselves to a Greek god and go out to do battle. Xander, returning from a pointless/endless donut/snack run comes back to find that everyone has left. While cleaning up the notes out for what they did he finds someone's plans for "distracting" him he takes the plunge and pledges himself to Ares. Unlike the rest of the group, Xander takes his pledge/worship seriously and he attracts his god's attention.
Ares, attracted to the prayer's of a true follower (in this day and age too) investigates to find a strange young man. A man who reminds him of a love never realized... Joxer.

"I'm a Were-what?":
While Buffy and co. are trying to cure Oz of being a werewolf Xander some how gets cursed. The curse he has according to Giles is a PureWere type curse. For example: "Giles do you mean that I'm a werewolf now like Oz?" asked Xander. "No Xander I'm afraid what you have is not so simple. You see you have the PureWere curse without the animal component. Therefore, you can turn into almost any living thing you are closest to during a full moon." said Giles. "Oh my God, do you mean that I'll turn in to a tree or dog or something if I'm standing by one during the full moon"exclaimed Xander. "No nothing like that. You can turn into other people, certain demons and large animals you will have all of their knowledge and or power will in their form.

"I'm a Were-what?(option 2)":
While Buffy and co. are trying to cure Oz of being a werewolf Xander some how gets cursed. The curse he has according to Giles was a blank Were curse. For example: "Giles do you mean that I'm a werewolf now like Oz?" asked Xander. "No Xander I'm afraid what you have is not so simple. You see you have a blank Were curse and because you were touching (maybe choose either Buffy, Willow, Tara or Anya) while we were doing the spell you will turn into a woman during the full moon(maybe you could have him become a Slayer because he was touching Buffy or a Witch because he was touching Willow or Tara).

"I'm a Were-what?(option 3)":
While Buffy and co. are trying to cure Oz of being a werewolf Xander some how gets cursed. The curse he has according to Giles is a Were type curse. For example: "Giles do you mean that I'm a werewolf now like Oz?" asked Xander. "No Xander I'm afraid what you have is not so simple. You see you have the Were curse without the animal component however you because you were touching Spike you will turn into a vampire during the full moon.

"The Wheel of Time"
Has anyone else read "The Wheel of Time", by Robert Jordan? In that series, there are two kinds of people who are capable of magic. One sort have the ability but can only realise it if trained. The other sort, known as "wilders" exhibit powers independently from an early age, and are often many, many times more powerful than the other variety. Just my 2 cents...>>
What if Xander WAS a wilder? and it ran in his family? Could his parents have turned their backs on the rest of the family and changed their names thinking that they would not be affected by it? could they have had Xander sheilded against using his powers? what would happen if in a life or death situation (Buffy's, Willow's, Spike's, Giles', or his own) his power comes out. would he run? or just accept it and continue on in his life? would he find a teacher or a teacher end up coming to him? Use this if you want. (I only come up with the ideas and basic outline can't get over the hurdle of writing yet.) And yes I know that there are other fics out there like this but this plot bunny interested me.

"Xander the Dammed":
Xander becomes immortal by accidentally ingesting or being feed a strange potion . Because of the effects of the potion Giles is able to identify it the it as a potion called the Curse of Ramses the Dammed. It gives who ever or what ever it is used on "True Immortality" meaning that person can Never die....even if they are chopped-up into little pieces and those pieces are scattered into the ocean they will never die the will just live on in agony never to be whole again unless someone puts them back together. The potion is named after the first recipient Ramses the Great who guarded the royal families of Egypt for a thousand years, lover of Cleopatra and his story of his return to the modern world was recorded by the Watcher Anne Rice. According to her the only thing that can give such an immortal the semblance of death is the total lack of sun for an extended period of time.
