Hmmm... the closest I get to that is a preference to Buffy in a
non-traditional (non-vampire) pairing. Preferably Buffy/Willow,
Buffy/Faith, or Buffy/Tara (and there a couple interesting
Buffy/other femslash stories over on Mystic Muse)
And I'm writing a bit of Buffy/Ginny in a long and convoluted
crossover...

Yes. Someone has to.

I'm not a Riley hater (or Kennedy hater for that matter). But
the only complete Buffy/Riley series I've read and enjoyed
(NC-17 in parts) is one set many years after the series ended
-->

"Celestial Light"
(http://home.mindspring.com/~jenkel/fanfic/butterfly_home.html)
by Alexandra Huxley. 250K+ words including the sequel.

But I ran across it completely by accident.

How about "don't hate" instead? I've given them supporting
non-evil roles in fics
but don't see any need to center a fic around them.

I've got a post-Chosen preference myself. (with a bit of "Angel
Season 5 never happened thrown in the mix.) I prefer writing the
much darker Buffy (with a dash of hope thrown in) that resulted.

I guess it depends on who you WANT to read it. My one real B/W
gets posted only here and on IKOLY (and my blog) because the
people HERE and the other B/W writers here and on IKOLY
"inspired" me to write it so... in some ways it's for them.
Even if it isn't close to being as NC-17ish as a lot of fics
that are posted here.
