Author’s Note 1 - Thanks to [personal profile] evil_little_dog for the beta. This was written for the Happy Endings ficathon. Challenge parameters are at the end.

Author’s Note 2 – I’m not exactly sure when I wrote this as it seems to be published at none of my usual spots. However, judging by the subject matter, I’m going to say it was around 2006-2008. The Mothman Festival is a real thing but it no longer uses the amphitheater for the talks described here and the Bennigan’s is long gone. But in the time frame I just mentioned this is how the festival was and yes I’ve retconned this a tiny bit. Also it’s AR, ignoring the comic canon because at the time I hadn’t read them (and still haven’t as far as the Buffy comics are concerned).

Author’s Note -- Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] evil_little_dog for the beta. This was written for Ruuger for the 2012 remix at [livejournal.com profile] remixers_lounge for the 2012 challenge. I remixed her story And Sisyphus Wept here. It’s a future story with an unnamed Slayer. I chose to leave her unnamed. I did, however, name her sister so it would be less confusing which ‘she’ I’m talking about. I went with a female name that’s been popular for centuries.

In the original, we see the story unfold through Spike’s eyes and even though this young girl has no name she is a strong and fascinating character. I wanted to look at things through her eyes. Another story that captured my attention was We Make Our Own Magic and while I couldn’t think of a good way to remix it, I just wanted to point it out because of the subject matter. It’s an interesting look at Finnish history complete with research notes and I wanted to recommend it highly.

Her end – the end of the whole damn world – was coming )
