This was delightful. Spike's frenzied drive was a vivid and exciting beginning, and the story never let up. Buffy's fight with the giant vamp was nicely choreographed, and when her savior appeared I was surprised it wasn't Spike. I haven't read the comics, so I enjoyed meeting Satsu here.
Spike's arrival was vivid, too, and Buffy's mixed reaction was nicely realized. Two ex-lovers scrutinizing her, how awkward is that? Making it three was icing on the wacky cake!
A couple lines made me laugh out loud:
“None of that now. Only one slayer’s got a free pass to hit yours truly. And that ain’t you” was in voice and charming.
Spike hitting that "Welcome to Slayer Central" sign was a lovely shout out to his introduction to Sunnydale, and this was hilarious: “Oh god that’s the hottest thing ’ve ever seen you do,” he said in wonder. “Can you do it again? Wait, when did this happen?” Trust Spike to have absolutely no filter and his rant against Angel for keeping him away from the hot Buffy on slayer action had me laughing out loud.
Then Angel arrives. Man, I actually feel sorry for Buffy! Thanks for the really fun read. I wish I could remember who recommended it so I could thank them.
