OVARIAN FORTITUDE

Disclaimer: Joss Whedon and ME own all these people. The thoughts are all mine though.

Rating: R because I don't know where this story is going yet.

Distribution: If someone seriously wants to use this, just let me know.

Story: This is how I think Buffy should behave. Buffy decides one day to take life by the gonads and live, instead of sitting around and pouting. (Thank God!)

Spoilers: Everything up to what we've seen so far. I don't think I'll be spoiling the end of season 6, but I won't swear to it.

CHAPTER 1

It was the same thing everyday. Get up, go to work, slay, go home, and go to bed. At least when she was sleeping with Spike her life had a flicker of interest. Now the only interesting thing she saw was the variety of fashion no-nos the vamps had been sporting. Something had to give. She looked at herself in the mirror and sighed. Last year, she could look in the mirror and see something attractive. But this girl in the mirror was an entirely different person. Her hair was stringy; she had dark circles under her eyes, and the grease from the Doublemeat Palace was doing nothing for her complexion. That was just her looks. Her personal life left something to be desired as well. "God," she said to herself, "could my life be anymore pathetic?" With that, she crawled into her bed and cried herself to sleep.
