1. A Typical Day by Mabel Marsters - Likes: 9 Comments: 6 Word Count: 1,828 Hit Count: 2,472
This is based at the end of season six but the following things are different.
The Initiative is still active. Adam never happened nor did Maggie Walsh's attempt on Buffy's life.
Riley and Buffy split following a mutual decision when he got transferred eslewhere.
Spike and Buffy had the season six destructive relationship post Riley breakup. Spike never attempted to rape Buffy and has disappeared.
Giles stayed in USA after Buffy was resurrected.
Hope that makes sense?
The story starts over a year after Spike's disappearance.
