Anya: So, what kind of place are you looking for?
Spike: I don't know. Maybe a crypt. Some place, you know, dark and dank. But not as dark and dank as this.
Anya: It's pretty depressing, isn't it?
Spike: I've known corpses with a fresher smell. In fact, I've been one.

This is a story I started writing a few years ago. I just added a new chapter today.
Title: The Dark Mage
Author: Sdhuskerfan
Characters: Rupert Giles, Ethan Rayne (for now)
Pairings: Mostly Giles/Ethan
Rating: AO3 Explicit
Word count: 22,677 so far
Summary: This is my take on what happened between Ripper and Ethan in the mid-1970s, based off of the series BTVS, and a few things I have read on various wiki pages. I have not read any of the comic books or novels published after the show.
