Taaroko's Buffy the Vampire Slayer series consists of two fanfics, Season 8 and its sequel, Season 9, and is a continuation of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, with Season 8 essentially starting where Season 7 of the TV show ended (albeit with an opening chapter that essentially serves as a 'flashback' depicting the activities of an important returning character).Season 8 is written in such a manner as to mostly correspond to the events of Angel Season 5 (making a couple of minor tweaks to make relations between the two groups better than they appeared in canon), while Season 9 is written after both shows had concluded.Season 8 focuses on the Scooby Gang making new lives for themselves in Cleveland after the destruction of the Sunnydale Hellmouth while facing a gathering army of zombie Slayers, while Season 9 relocates the group back to Los Angeles as they join forces with the now-human Angel and Gunn as Buffy and Angel get back together. | |

| Taaroko's Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Fanfic) / int_1086f287 | comment |
Sure, Let's Go with That: Basically Vi's reaction to Andrew's reasoning about why he doesn't trust Angel (which amounts to "Spike doesn't like him so I don't like him"); Vi doesn't agree with that view, but decides it's not worth the effort to try and correct Andrew's 'delusions'. | |

| Taaroko's Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Fanfic) / int_11f5ef55 | comment |
Many Spirits Inside of One: Dana's status as this (as depicted in "Damage") is discussed to greater extent when she appears in Season 9, where Andrew confirms that these days she tends to 'channel' the Slayer nearest to her. In Chapter 15, she is shown 'channelling' the moment when Buffy 'used' Andrew to close the Seal and when she first realised Angel was human, and in Chapter 16 she briefly taps Livvy's memories while talking with the little girl. | |

| Taaroko's Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Fanfic) / int_154aa477 | comment |
Big, Screwed-Up Family: As well as the Scoobies as a whole, the complexity of Angel, Drusilla and Spike's vampire 'family' is invoked, with Dru pondering what she should consider Connor, and making a comment that implies she also sees Angel's sister Kathy as an aunt despite the girl having been dead for over a century before Drusilla was turned. | |

Alcohol-Induced Idiocy: Word of God explains that Spike's reaction to Buffy choosing Angel was in part due to a lot of bourbon and the crappy day he had been having, and had Drusilla not shown up, he would have pulled himself together and tried to patch things up with her. | |

Punch-Clock Villain: The San Francisco branch of Wolfram & Hart are still ruthless and evil, but unlike the Los Angeles branch, they don’t fixate on specific targets, abandoning their attempt to capture and control Dawn/the Key as her initial escape proves that they can’t keep her contained. | |

Closest Thing We Got | |
| Taaroko's Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Fanfic) / int_213dc284 | comment |
Closest Thing We Got: A minor but positive example occurs early in Season 9, when Renee asks for Angel's input on the sketches she's creating for her and Xander's new comic book 'adaptation' of the Scoobies' earlier adventures; while Angel's artistic experience lends itself more towards sketches of subjects in repose, he is still the most artistically-inclined person available who had any hand in the events Renee is trying to depict. | |

Failed a Spot Check: It takes Willow 'recognising' one of the girls as Kennedy for Xander to realise that the thirty six-year-old girls running around Summers Academy in nothing but adult blouses are actually the de-aged Slayers, Giles explicitly noting that the correlation should have been obvious. | |

Dead Guy Junior | |
| Taaroko's Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Fanfic) / int_2fd7200b | comment |
Dead Guy Junior: In Chapter 14, the future children of Buffy and Angel and Willow and Oz appear in the present, and reveal that practically all of the next generation are named after those they've lost; Buffy and Angel's children are Kathy Winifred and Liam Wesley (Angel's sister, his original human name, and Fred and Wesley), Willow and Oz's twins are Tara Jennifer and Daniel Rupert (Tara, Jenny Calender, Oz himself and Giles), Xander and Renee's kids are named after Jesse and Anya, and Connor and Dawn's daughter is named after Holtz's daughter Caroline while their son is named Steven, after Connor's 'alias' when Holtz raised him. The only child mentioned not named after someone dead for at least a middle name is Daniel Rupert Osborne, and that's only because practically nobody calls Oz and Giles by their first names anyway. | |

| Taaroko's Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Fanfic) / int_3d455888 | comment |
Then Let Me Be Evil: Basically Spike's 'defence' of his acceptance of his non-souled state after he returns in Season 9, reasoning that there was no point dealing with such 'issues' as cold pig's blood and suffering when the reason he was trying to be a good guy ended up choosing someone else anyway. | |

Curb-Stomp Battle | |

Curb-Stomp Battle: In a sense; Amy tries to attack Willow with a spell designed to draw on her insecurities and bring them out, but Willow's magic is now so far beyond Amy's that the spell essentially 'bounces' off Willow and causes Angel, Xander, Oz, Giles and Dawn to experience various moments of random chaos until the spell is undone by another Watcher, at which point Willow identifies the source and effortlessly banishes Amy away. | |

Parental Substitute: Giles is less explicitly a father figure for the newer characters, but he retains this position for the original Scoobies; Buffy even has Giles walk her down the aisle at her wedding to Angel, reflecting that he would have that role even if Hank Summers had shown up. | |

Secret Test of Character: Despite believing that he signed his Shanshu away, Angel is assured by his ‘guardian angel’- his sister Kathy- that not only is it impossible to sign away a destiny, but just believing he was giving it up actually made him more worthy, as it proved he wasn’t fighting the good fight for a reward. | |

Rebuilt Pedestal: Buffy reflects early in her time in Cleveland that she's glad that she and Giles have returned to their old dynamic after their old disagreements regarding Spike; by the time Buffy marries Angel, she makes it clear that she would have had Giles walk her down the aisle even if Hank Summers had shown up for the wedding. Buffy makes it clear that Andrew's claim that the Slayers don't trust Angel in "Damage" was a lie and she never lost faith in Angel or his team even if she was worried about the organisation. Connor’s better relationship with Angel is made clear throughout the fic, to the point of accepting Angel’s assurances that he will always be Angel’s son when Angel learns that Buffy is pregnant. | |

All Your Powers Combined | |
| Taaroko's Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Fanfic) / int_5288f02 | comment |
All Your Powers Combined: In the penultimate chapter of Season 8, when the Scoobies face the First in the final battle, they defeat the First using the Enjoining Spell they used to defeat Adam in canon, but make Willow the 'vessel' for their combined powers rather than Buffy. This change allows Willow to astral project to a level where she can fight the First while essentially wielding the Scythe, allowing her to draw on Buffy and Giles's experience of hand-to-hand combat where the First doesn't actually have any idea how to fight for itself. | |

As a result, not only is there still only one Slayer at a time, but they all lasted barely a year in the role; Buffy died in her confrontation with the Master, Kendra was killed by Spike for killing Drusilla, Faith sacrificed herself to kill the Mayor, Kennedy was slaughtered by Adam, Rona was split by Toth and killed, Vi was killed by the slayer-turned-vampire Nyx, and current Slayer Renee (Xander's girlfriend in the 'real' world at this time) is resigned to her inevitable death when he arrives. As for the rest of the Scooby Gang, Willow was turned by Spike- and is killed by Xander after she kills Renee- Cordelia was killed at the demonic frat party, Miss Calendar died in a car accident during the cursed candy incident, and Angel, Oz, and Giles are resigned to their bitter role as guardians of the Hellmouth (Jesse ‘inviting’ Xander to consider what Los Angeles must be like in this world as Angel never went there). | |

Fantastic Racism | |
| Taaroko's Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Fanfic) / int_57b80b45 | comment |
Fantastic Racism: Kennedy is at least shown to be on the verge of this attitude, quick to assume that Oz and Sam are threats once she learns Sam isn't human (although in Oz's case this can mainly be attributed to her being jealous over his past relationship with Willow). | |

Enemy Mine | |
| Taaroko's Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Fanfic) / int_5989e3b6 | comment |
Enemy Mine: Nyx adopts this philosophy in Season 8 when she realises that the First is reanimating dead Slayers to use against Buffy's army of Slayers, offering Buffy information about their current enemy because she recognises that it's very likely that spell will be used to try and control her at some point. Occurs again in Season 9, when Spike, Drusilla, Nyx, Sophia and Demetri come to the Hyperion to join forces with the Scoobies to stop the rise of the Old Ones, agreeing to help them stop the Old Ones and protect innocent humans caught in the crossfire, all the Slayers accepting that these vampires are on their side right now as the side that doesn't want to destroy the world. | |

Badass Normal: Xander is an obvious example, but there's also Cole, a member of Oz's new band; he starts out as the only pure human in the band, but he displays no hesitation when trying to help his girlfriend Alex in her first fight against vampires after Oz explains about the Slayer, and later starts training with Giles so that he can 'officially' act as Alex's Watcher. | |

Ship Sinking: After Buffy learns that Spike is alive, not only is she put off when he reveals that he didn't tell her he was alive to avoid spoiling the memory of his final sacrifice, but she is further disgusted when he protests that he did everything for her rather than because any of it was the right thing to do. As Buffy realises while yelling at Spike, she's come to recognise that the important thing when acting as a champion is to do the right thing because it’s right, rather than because there might be a reward in it. | |

Zero-Effort Boss: In a sense; it took a lot of effort to get Willow to a point where she could fight the First directly, but once in a plane where she can make physical contact with the First while Willow wields a manifestation of the Scythe, it is swiftly clear that the entity has virtually no experience of hand-to-hand combat and only lasts as long as it did by distracting Willow with Tara’s appearance. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero! | |
| Taaroko's Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Fanfic) / int_7fbb2a3 | comment |
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Xander has a small case of this when he compliments Kennedy on how she's been getting along with Oz so far when Buffy's ex-lovers were always basically arch-enemies... and only learns after he said it that Kennedy didn't know Oz had dated Willow before. Buffy has a moment of panic when she convinces herself that the army of undead Slayers is a side-effect of the spell that activated all living Potential Slayers, but Giles and Willow convince her that’s impossible due to the nature of the magic used for the Slayer activation spell being too pure to have such a terrible consequence. A more serious example occurs in Season 9; after the gang interrupted a ritual intended to summon an Old One, they only learn later on that they interrupted the ritual at a point after it would wake the Old One but before the casters could identify which Old One should be awoken, with the result that every Old One trapped in the Deeper Well is unleashed on the world. | |

Right for the Wrong Reasons: Basically a case of doing the right thing for the wrong reasons; when Angel and Wesley use Wolfram & Hart's resources to set up the Summers Academy for Girls in Cleveland as a cover for training the new Slayers, Wesley observes that the rest of W&H aren't going to complain about it as it's basically a massive tax dodge that makes them look charitable, while the former Angel Investigations have the pleasure of depriving Wolfram & Hart of a significant amount of money. | |

Posthumous Character: A brief example; when the First tries to put Willow off-guard by appearing to her as Tara and taunting her about having ‘moved on’ with Oz, Willow hears Tara’s voice assure her that she would want Willow to be happy after her death and would never be so cruel. In a more conventional example, while Buffy and Angel are on their honeymoon, they go to Ireland to visit the graves of Angel’s family, with Buffy paying the graves a private visit so that she can tell the grave of Angel’s father that he would be proud of the man his son has become. | |

Took a Level in Badass: Dawn learns that her nature as the Key means that she can open portals to other dimensions of her own free will (although she chooses not to try and open a portal to Heaven so that she can let Joyce rest in peace), or even open portals to different areas in the same dimension, allowing her to open a permanent portal between a once-lost archive of texts in London and the Hyperion Hotel. Initially the only pure human in Illogical Stop Sign, Cole soon starts training with Giles so that he can be officially classified as Alex’s Watcher. In the final battle in Cleveland, Buffy, Xander and Giles re-cast the Spell of Enjoining they used against Adam to make Willow the focus, allowing her to astral project herself to a plane where she can battle the First while wielding the Scythe and drawing on Buffy’s combat knowledge. | |

In canon, Angel tried to get ahold of Willow to help cure Fred's infection by Illyria's essence, but Giles informs him that Willow is in the Himalayas on the astral plane, and flat-out refused to help them at all after confirming that Angel still works for Wolfram & Hart. Here, Willow is captured by the agents of the latest threat at the same time as Fred is infected by Illyria in Los Angeles and is therefore unable to help Angel save Fred either way; the writer thinks that Giles refusing to help Angel at all in the face of an Old One being resurrected was a major Out-of-Character Moment. | |

The fic also adjusts Andrew's comment in "Damage" that no one in the Scooby Gang trusts Angel anymore now that he works for Wolfram & Hart. When Spike points this out to Buffy in the Season 8 finale, Buffy replies that just because she doesn't trust Wolfram & Hart does not mean she doesn't trust Angel, and Andrew had no right to speak for her in the first place. | |

However, after Buffy accepts his initial rejection of the offer to restore his memories because he doesn't want to remember the horror of Angelus's crimes, Liam later redeems himself in her eyes when he asks to remember who he was so he can remember the people who were important to Angel after looking at various photographs. | |

Ascended Extra | |
| Taaroko's Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Fanfic) / int_a65288e2 | comment |
Ascended Extra: Oz's bandmates are all original characters, but Alex and Cole in particular become key core members of the group in Cleveland. As Angel faces his final battle, Lorne, Connor and Dawn all pool their resources to gather some of Angel's old allies to help him against the Black Thorn, and a few more show up of their own accord. | |

Wolf Man | |
| Taaroko's Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Fanfic) / int_abf92023 | comment |
Wolf Man: Oz's wolf state changes after he achieves balance within himself; where his transformed state was once more like "were-gorillabeast from hell", he once again looks more like an actual wolf, with Buffy even observing that he's 'pretty' now. | |

Strong Family Resemblance | |
| Taaroko's Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Fanfic) / int_c5fe6c81 | comment |
Strong Family Resemblance: In Chapter 14 of Season 8, Buffy, Angel, Willow and Oz all compare their temporally-displaced future children to younger versions of the relevant parent, save that they have the opposite parent's eyes and Kathy (Buffy and Angel's daughter) has Angel's brown hair rather than Buffy's blonde. During the double wedding of Buffy and Angel and Willow and Oz, it is noted that Oz's parents share "more than monosyllabic tendencies and unflappability", as they each show a degree of musical expertise as well. | |

Fallen Hero: Essentially applies to Spike, as he shows no sign that he is troubled about the fact that he's lost his soul, although this can be attributed to him being psychologically incapable of doing so in this state. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Taaroko's Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Fanfic) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: One of the things that bring Xander and Renee together is their shared appreciation of Firefly, with their favourite characters being Zoe and Wash respectively; the two even give each other matching Jayne-hats. When discussing the James Bond films, Renee prefers Sean Connery while Andrew favours Timothy Dalton. When Andrew first meets Renee, he 'tests' her with three questions in the style of Monty Python and the Holy Grail. While wandering around London, Oz mentions that he keeps expecting to see the TARDIS, but Angel doesn’t hear him as he was distracted by the sight of a blue police box that subsequently disappeared… The author has confirmed that the reference to Spike and Drusilla draining a brunette in a ‘backwoods town in Washington’ is a dig at the The Twilight Saga series. | |

Hoist by His Own Petard: Ultimately used against the Immortal; while he refused to break a curse even after it was revealed to have become an infection that afflicted Giles (who he had no grudge against), Willow gets him to break it when she threatens to ensure that he will be infected by the same curse if he doesn’t undo it. | |

Give Him a Normal Life: Season 8 explores how Buffy and Angel did their best to do this for Dawn and Connor, until the final battle against Wolfram & Hart's forces is only successful because those two joined Angel's forces to rally the troops and support his efforts, leaving Buffy and Angel to each accept that their sister and son belong with them. | |

Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": Basically applies to Angel in Season 9; Buffy helps him draw up the legal paperwork necessary for him to have a real name and identity under his original human name of 'Liam Gallagher', but despite the restoration of his birth name (to the point that Buffy now calls herself 'Buffy Gallagher' after their wedding), everyone still calls him Angel. | |

Screw the Rules, I Have Connections! | |

Screw the Rules, I Have Connections!: In Season 9, a government agency attempts to take the Slayers prisoner in the belief that they are super-soldiers funded by the now-defunct Wolfram & Hart, but the lieutenant who authorised the operation is quickly shut down when his superior shows up, as the man is Captain Graham Miller, formerly of the Initiative, who notes that people don't get far when Buffy Summers sees them as the bad guy; as Buffy puts it, "They called in the cavalry, who happened to like me better than them." On the other hand, Cole makes it clear that he wants the full Watcher-training experience rather than just using his close friendship with the original gang to 'fast-track' through the training so that he can serve as Alex's Watcher. | |

On top of Angel's history as Angelus, it is briefly referenced that his mother suffered various miscarriages before she gave birth to his sister Kathy, explaining the age gap between the two. | |
