Alignment Series
(also known as the Buffy/P:tL crossover series)



Unless otherwise noted, this series is rated PGish, depending on your definition of cuddles being PG or PG-13.

As always, I don't own, hold a claim to, or mean to infringe on any copyrights, nor do I make a claim about the actors, just the characters they play so well that inspired my muse (or the Writing Demon's as they're known). I don't know all the people that have a claim and they would be too numerous to mention so I'll leave that part out, putting in a simple, "not mine, don't sue me, I'm a poor college student and didn't mean any harm".

Okay, four things:

a) this starts out as a Derek/Philip, Willow/Oz, Buffy/Nick series, but all bets are off as to who ends up in who's bed when it'sall said and done.

b) my muse wanted angst so there's tons of it and it's mostly Xander based.

c) this is mostly 'ship stuff, especially since a good third of the stories are rated PG

d) there are slight crossovers in here, of a take a character from a fandom and run to this series sort. They include, but may not be limited to by the time the series is done, Forever Knight (Nick), due South (Ray K.), and Highlander (Methos and guest-appearances mostly).
