Summary
Nine years after the fall of Sunnydale, Willow & Tara have married and moved to Hell's Kitchen where they own a local bookstore/cafe named after their late friend, Buffy's Book Bistro.
After they had helped Faith close down the Sunnydale Hellmouth, the Slayer Line had ended. Fortunately, so had the vampires' capability to sire new offspring. Unlike what they had expected, the closing of the Hellmouth didn't open or reinvigorate any of the other ones in the world but instead closed all of them. Over time, it became harder and harder to open gateways and it appeared like the world was heading towards a more mundane future.
Until Tony Stark announced that he was the Iron Man. And then a green monster tore through Harlem to stop an even worse Abomination. And then a Norse God appeared in New Mexico. To top it all off, just yesterday another Norse God appeared in Germany - this one much less friendly than the first one.
In the past the Slayers had been the protection against the demonic threats against the world. These days, it's the superheroes that stand against the villains and the end of everything.

Summary
Weeks have passed since Gus took Alice Michelle out of the Ghost River Triangle; out of the reach of Bulshar Clootie and the Revenants. The Black Badge Division has cut all ties, Bulshar has been released and is gathering power, Rosita has disappeared following her self-preserving betrayal of the Earps, Wynonna is a drunken mess and Waverly seek answers to the question - who is her biological father?
And unbeknownst to all of them, a new actor has entered the area. Willow Rosenberg, no longer associated with what remains of the Scoobies following Buffy's death two years ago, has been sent by her Patron to investigate and protect the GRT Hellmouth.
She's stronger, better trained and has received a couple of nifty upgrades. She's also a social wreck who's only contact with her old life is the ex girlfriend that she doubt she'll ever see again.

Summary
After giving her life to call all the Slayers, Willow is given the option to go back in time to prevent the rise of the First Evil.
Oh she could also decide to become the Goddess of the Slayers instead but fuck that shit she's got stuff to do and messes to clean up and really after Glorificus and Osiris she have no patience for that divine politics bullshit.

Summary
These are the stories of the Salix Empowerment Center Investigation group.
Willow, Tara, Dawn and Zoidberg travel the world(and other franchises) to investigate and solve problems of the supernatural kind.
And possibly make a mess of it. Because, you know, it's not like they're really professionals when it comes down to it.
Be Aware: Spoilers for all franchises listed. Except for Futurama - I just wanted Zoidberg to be part of it.

Summary
She did not have time to weep at the setting sun. She could no longer hold her breath and watch the days slip past like petals through her fingers. She had the best information in the country on her hands. No one else was taking it seriously, but she had both money and a moderate amount of power: it was time to do something with it. (Complete!)

Summary
“How do you do it? Control it, make it do whatcha want, stop it from taking over you and control you, keep it from going all…bleh.”
“Bleh?”
“You know what I mean.”
He snickered, shaking his head, but the smile slipped from his lips as they settled into a neutral line. He leaned on his cane to look up at the sky.
“I don’t. I mean, not really. People think it’s this majestic, all knowing force, but it’s a lot more like a child, always watching, always learning. When it connects with us, it tunes into every fiber of our being. It doesn’t know anything at first, we shape it with our every thought, our every use, every action. We’re its compass, moral or otherwise. You know what they say, what goes around comes around, that’s very literal here. I just…learned that a lot sooner than others do. They take from the world, so it learns to take. I give of myself, and only myself, so it gives in return…"
He glanced down at his hands, examining them carefully as they glowed faintly in the moonlight.
"...at least, that’s what I tell myself. That’s what I hope is the truth.”
