Oh, poor Spike. I actually like the second one better than the B/A one, which is saying something because -- well, I've been known to 'ship. But your Spike is very on and very engaging, and the way you've written it, you can just see him rolling around the bar in his melancholy, and it's priceless. I love, "I've known you five minutes and I’d trade you for a Chaos demon." Hee! I liked the B/A one, too, but the Spike one's just . . . I don't know, more charismatic.

On a beta note, I caught a few tiny errors: In the first one, when Buffy tells Angel, "I know you have to go soon," there's no beginning quotation marks, just closing. For the Spike one: Spike says Dru left him for a "blood" Chaos demon; I'm pretty sure you mean "bloody," although maybe he's slurring his speech because he's drunk or you mean something I'm not grasping. Also, I believe "Bloody" as in "William the Bloody" should be capitalized, but that's . . . far from important. Just trying to help; if I'm being annoying, let me know.

thanks for the edits, i'll go fix them (that's the trouble with drabbles, they rarely get proofed)

Glad you liked them though. I've been out with enough sloppy crying drunks that I can easily picture a dumped Spike

I really enjoyed these. I even liked the Spike one. I really don't like him, but you captured the one I could stand.

As for the Buffy and Angel drabble, I can only say bravo. I really, really want to kick those two for being as idiotic about their relationship as they have. Well, more Buffy than Angel. I can only imagine the horrible things she thought after Angel took over W&H. *kicks Ridiculous!Buffy*

If he died (thanks, Joss!), then she's probably dancing on his grave. And, as he's dead, he can't very well defend himself. Boo. Although, I now have an idea. Could I possibly wheedle you into writing a drabble where Buffy reacts in a favorable light to Angel's death? Maybe Connor comes to tell her about it and things go from there?

[cornerofmadness]

thanks. I'd have to really think about that request since i have zero ideas for it but yeah sometimes I was rather annoyed with the B/A ship

remind me again where to findy our story so I can actually feedback like promised

*dies laughing* at Drunk!Spike and the Analio demon.

[cornerofmadness]

glad you got a laugh. I had fun with that one

Wow, you wrote me a Spike and Dru one! :) Thank you so much.

I really liked it, you captured the way Spike must have been feeling and reacting excellently. I also liked the way you used the Analio demon's "I don't care" attitude as a counterpoint(is that the right word?) for his behaviour.

[cornerofmadness]

yes that's the right word and I'm glad you liked it.. I figured you'd appreciate Spike

[lejlkwiet]

Yes, I did :) and especially since you always write his character so well!

[cornerofmadness]

oh crap I forgot to go look for the music at work. head desk. i have an excuse. It was too hot today

and I love playing with Spike so I relish chances to do so

[a2zmom]

Loved the B/A one, Angel was the only who didn't demand anything from Buffy which she really needed.

And the Spike one was priceless, I'm imagining that other demon just dying to escape.

thanks, glad you liked them
