Tiny Smiles is one of my favorite cute-sy fics for Spike and Xander from Buffy. By Sabershadowkat who has many many many more fics on her website, it takes into account the time period that human Spike is from, something that very few, if any, other stories I have read do. One word for it is adorable. Below are links to each of the stories individually - all are PG-13, though some more so than others.

After going back through old book marks and such, I stumbled across the Due South Fiction Archive. For a little while there, I was very much into Due South, specifically season 3 (being the last real season - season 4 consisted of 2 episodes) with Ray Kowalski (versus Ray Vecchio - and if you need an explanation of that, go here). Callum Keith Rennie is absolutely adorable under every circumstance.

Anyways, I have always been a fan of well done hurt/comfort fics (now keep in mind, I have to think they are well done) and this was one of my favorites.

Title: Busted (320 K) (Format: html, text-only)
Author: anonymous co
Category: Drama, First Times, Romance, Series
Rating: R
Warning: slash, m/m, h/c, AU
Pairing: Fraser/Kowalski
Summary: A year after CoTW, and a life-changing experience, Ray goes back to Canada
Archived on: 10/25/01

It is marvelously long and complicated, and there are plenty of other fics by anonymous co that are wonderful as well. Definitely go and check them all out.
