Currently, the series has three stories: [[http://www.tthfanfic.org/Story-82/JoeB+Rainbow+Over+Sunnydale.htm Rainbow over Sunnydale]], [[http://www.tthfanfic.org/Story-2338-2/JoeB+Imhotep+s+Key.htm Imhotep's Key]] (crossover with ''Film/TheMummyTrilogy''), and [[http://www.tthfanfic.org/Story-15163/JoeB+Witchfinder.htm Witchfinder]] (crossover with ''Series/{{Charmed}}'').

* ''Synopsis'': With the Hellmouth sealed after the Season 3 finale, Buffy goes to college and joins ROTC to pay for it. She ends up in the Army, and fights evil while meeting numerous crossover characters, replacing the Scoobies with soldiers and stakes with assault rifles and machine guns. Unlike the canon Initiative (which does show up), the military here is competent, smart, and possess a great love of firepower. Sixteen complete stories. Crosses over with ''Franchise/{{Predator}}'', ''Series/TheATeam'', ''[[Film/TheBourneSeries Bourne]]'', ''VideoGame/SplinterCell'', ''Film/TheExorcist'', ''Literature/JoeLedger'', ''Film/{{The Avengers|2012}}'', ''Franchise/FuManchu'' and many more.

* ''Synopsis'': Xander, Faith and Dawn are supposed to go on the run from Glory. Instead, they end up on another planet, 500 years in the future. Then they board a ship named [[{{Series/Firefly}} Serenity]]...

* ''Synopsis'': A serial killer attracts the attention of both the SVU and the Council. The Summers sisters learn that not all monsters are demons. (''The Muggle Way'' is a tie-in story by the same author. It is, however, a DeadFic, abandoned barely halfway into the story, if that far.)

* ''Synopsis'': ''Counts of Blood'': Before a girl named Buffy moved to Sunnydale, the Master gets a visit from an old friend, Count vonCount.\\
''The Muppet Contracts'': When Angel Investigations takes the case of a murdered acting agent, they have no idea what sort of people they're about to meet.

''[[http://fanfiction.tenhawkpresents.com/viewstory.php?sid=35 Harris and the Shadow Council]]'' by Tenhawk

* ''Synopsis'': So far this is a threeway crossover between ''Series/TheAddamsFamily'', ''Buffy the Vampire Slayer'', and ''Literature/HarryPotter''. The main focus is on Xander Harris and Wednesday Addams as they they go to Hogwarts but Hermione from the "Golden Trio" does get her share of the story. The story starts of with a slight retelling of the first ''Harry Potter'' book (''Literature/HarryPotterAndThePhilosophersStone'') and unravels it as Xander works his particular brand of chaos. This could well be described as a day-in-the-life story.

* ''Synopsis'': After ending up in the wrong part of the Multiverse, a 27 year old magic-warping Xander goes to Hogwarts.

* Recommeded by @/CrypticMirror and @/DarkPhoenix94
* ''Synopsis'': That Halloween Xander lost a bet to Cordelia. His forfeit, to wear the costume of her choice, and Cordelia chose a ComicBook/PowerGirl costume. As if that wasn't bad enough, when the time comes to change back the universe itself glitches. Xander Harris finds himse...er...make that [[GenderBender herself]] in a whole new body and a whole new universe, one populated by super heroes and super villains. Only it isn't the DCU that Xander knows, but the Creator/{{Marvel}}verse.

* ''Sypnosis'': This story is a YAHF ("Yet Another Halloween Fic"). Xander Harris loses a bet and has to dress up as Power Girl for Halloween. For an unexplained reason, he ends up in the MarvelUniverse [[GenderBender stuck in Power Girl's body]]. This fic was inspired by the previous story (''A New World In My View'' by P.H. Wise) with the permission of that author, but has gone in a completely different direction.

* ''Sypnosis'': A sorcerer seeking ultimate power attempts to raise one of the Great Old Ones, but his magicks go awry. Now the beast is on the loose among the vampires and werewolves of Anita Blake's Saint Louis. The first chapter was vetted by none other than Creator/NeilGaiman himself.

* Recommended by Tropers/MarvelGirl
* ''Synopsis'': Trapped by an alien collector, Lieutenant Commander Data discovers an early 21st century android excavated from the ruins of Sunnydale and a capsule containing the frozen body of one of the Eugenic Wars' most notorious figures...Buffy Summers.

* Synopsis:Hermione Granger started it all when she received that prophecy made by Sibyl Trelawney. She found a team of six other women and faced a hellgoddess trying to invade her world. But afterward, people went home with new knowledge. Four stories:

** [[http://www.tthfanfic.org/Story-27744/DianeCastle+Cross+Purposes.htm Cross Purposes]]: As the team returns home, they set out to find their dimension's equivalent of their teammates. Updates every other Monday
** [[http://www.tthfanfic.org/Story-28614/DianeCastle+The+Secret+Return+of+Alex+Mack.htm The Secret Return of Alex Mack]]: The meat of the story, a 1.1 million word epic published over 23 months that follows Alex Mack as she returns to her home dimension and begins recruiting allies. Complete.
** [[http://www.tthfanfic.org/Story-30822/DianeCastle+Hermione+Granger+and+the+Boy+Who+Lived.htm Hermione Granger and the Boy Who Lived]] Prequel to ''Secret Return'', it follows Mackverse Hermione through her seven years at Harworts, an MI-6 spy school. Updates every Wednesday and Saturday.

* ''Synopsis'': Set in S4 of [=BtVS=]. What if the Initiative changed Spike into a human, rather than giving him a chip? Let's just say the transition isn't all that easy on him, or anyone else for that matter. Will he finally discover the great advantage of being alive? Also has a sequel, ''[[http://dark-solace.org/elysian/viewstory.php?sid=1043 All The Graces of the Dawn]]'', set in an alternate season 5.)

* ''Synopsis'': The year is 1897 and the last thing Willow Rosenberg wants to be doing is battling against the forces of darkness, she’d rather be curled up with a book and a nice, hot cup of tea. Unfortunately Willow’s stuck working for a secret organisation hidden beneath the British Museum dedicated to the protection of mankind from the evil which lurks in the shadows of the world. With her bumbling assistant Myles, over-enthusiastic demon-slaying friend Faith and an all-too-sexy employer who collects death masks, Willow is about to realize that perilous danger comes even to those who least want it. The discovery of a diary and the journey that follows will disrupt everything Willow has ever known, including her own identity, and reunite her with a love she never knew she lost.

* ''Pairings'': Buffy/Willow Kennedy/Vi

''[[http://www.grandt.com/XanderZone/stories/read.php?story=TheZeppoInMind.html The Zeppo In Mind]]'' by M. McGregor

One-shot, ~8 000 words, rated PG-13.

Longfic, ~34 000 words, rated PG-13.

Horror story, though not in graphic and gory sense. One-shot, ~11 000 words, rated Mature.

* ''Synopsis'': The date is July 26, 2014 and Sunnydale Class of '99 is having a reunion. One-shot, ~4400 words, rated G.

* ''Synopsis'': At one end of his life, a 90+-year-old Xander lies dying. At the other end of his life, a teenage Xander decides to dress up as ''himself,'' only older, for a fateful Halloween. Time twists, and the life of the Slayer(s) will never be the same again. (As an extra bonus, the author has posted an annotated and footnoted version of the story on his [=LiveJournal=] that is invaluable to anyone wanting to study the mind of a writer and how/why he writes things the way he does.) Warning: some F/F and poly shipping toward the end of the story, but nothing actually explicit.

* ''Synopsis'': A twenty-something British man wakes up in Buffy Summers' body on the first day of the TV series. While not exactly happy with the situation, he'll use what he can remember of the first season to make the best of his situation and maybe make some better choices than the "real" Buffy did. Now if only (s)he can figure out why there's a 10-year-old Dawn hanging around. Oh, and yeah, stop obviously drooling over Willow. In the ten extant chapters it covers a fair amount of the first season, but it has been dead since 2006.

Title of the Fanfic by Author OR Fic Trope Page, by Author (Link)
* Recommended by: Troper Name
* ''Synopsis:'' What's the story about? Give here a brief summary of the plot. It would be also useful to point out in what moment of the series the story takes place. If it's a Gen Fic but it has some romantic elements, note here the characters involved too.
* ''Pairing(s):'' If it's a Shipping Fic, list here the pairings that feature in the fic (warn here if it's het, male slash or female slash). If it's a Gen Fic, remove this line. To tell the difference between the two, notice if the focus of the fic is on a romantic relationship or if it focuses on the other aspects of the story. In case of doubt, classify the story according to the genres it's been tagged: the Romance tag for Shipping, absence of that tag for Gen Fic.
* ''Tags:'' If any are known. This would be things like {{WAFF}}, {{Lemon}}, DarkFic, any known {{Crossover}}s etc.

* Femslashy work that manages the impossible -- being authentically dark without a ''drop'' of {{Wangst}}. The best of his work causes one to proclaim Mad-Hamlet as Buffy's [[MyRealDaddy real daddy]]. This is a man who takes EarnYourHappyEnding to heart. Must reads include "Prisms" and "Deeper."

* Recommended by ManCalledTrue:
* I have yet to see someone else nail the characters quite so well. No new ones in a while, but Meltha was rather prolific before then. Personal favorites: "''Who Died and Made You the Iron Chef?''" and "''Never Send Mom and Sis to a Vamp''". Mostly OriginalFlavor with some angsty diversions.
** "''Combined Forces''" is a brilliant piece of humor.

* The largest collection of ''Buffy'' crossover stories outside of FanFiction.net. If you look hard enough on this archive, you can find crossovers for just about ''everything'', including obscure cartoons, vaguely known literary sources, and fandoms so small they're only comprised of two people. Okay, that's an exaggeration, but that's how it feels.

[[http://gumboy.livejournal.com/54989.html The Watcher Series, Season One]] and [[http://gumboy.livejournal.com/80750.html Season Two]] by Gumboy.
* Recommended by Tropers/{{Roo}}
* A spin-off virtual series that takes place seven years after S7 and centers on Xander -- now armed with Cordelia-style visions and a magic eight ball that actually does tell the truth -- moving to Cape Kenneth to be the Watcher for a young Slayer named Olivia "Liv" Fontaine (you may remember her as the baseball-playing little girl from the very last episode). The series is rather OC-heavy, and is written in ScriptFic format, but don't let that scare you; the format is used well and captures the traditional witty banter and horror-comedy feel of the Buffyverse, and the [=OCs=] are likeable and interesting. The classic ''Buffy'' and ''Angel'' characters also feature heavily, as the older and established generation which are on call for when the big guns are needed... though apart from Xander (and eventually Spike, who becomes a regular, major character in the second season), most of them remain secondary characters.
** Unfortunately, the second season hasn't been updated since the sixteenth episode in 2007 -- and that episode ends on a rather nasty cliffhanger. There's also some Xander/OC romance, as Xander gets involved with Liv's mother Lucy (who in a staggering return to tradition knows all about her daughter's Slayer powers from the get-go). Consider yourself warned.
** The author has migrated all stories to [[http://archiveofourown.org/series/334594 AO3]]. While he's given up on finishing the series he did add a summary for the final story and the end of the cliffhanger.
