Sunnydale After Dark
Drabbles from the album RED by Taylor Swift by acekoomboom
Summary: Lyrics taken from RED and turned into Spuffy drabbles. Each story is unconnected.
Taylor puts a lot of emotion into her lyrics, and most emotions can be applied to Spuffy in my shipper heart. So I've taken up a habit of turning her songs into Drabbles for Spike and Buffy. This particular album was my all time favorite for about eight years and I still adore it to pieces. I rather like these tiny fics. They are all stand-alones, you don't have to read them in any order, they're just organized by the order of the songs on the album.
mcgnagallsarmy on EF made me a gorgeous gif set to go with this series on Tumblr and I love it so much omg omg omg omg. You totally have to go look at it. It's gorgeous.
