Seasonal Spuffy Spaiku.

Most of my flist probably watches this comm already, but just in case: yesterday was my posting day at seasonal_spuffy. You can find forty-three (yep, you heard me--they spiraled out of control!) haiku snapshots from "Crush" right here if such a thing interests you. I'm relieved to be done so that I can get back to reading the entries for this round; there have

Oh! I almost forgot! I was reading the shooting script for "Smashed" on the Buffyworld site one day, and look at this little scene (set right before he calls her from the pay phone) that they deleted:

INT. SPIKE'S CRYPT - DOWNSTAIRS - NIGHT

Spike moves about the room. Organized. Preparing.

From a chest of drawers, he pulls out a stun gun, fires it a couple times to make sure it works. Sets in on a table.

From a trunk at the foot of the bed, he brings out a coil of rope, pulling it tight. Puts it on the table, too.

He rustles some more in the trunk, reveals a set of chains. And a handful of padlocks. And a pair of handcuffs. On the table.

He rummages through a stack of records, finds just what he's looking for: an LP of Roxy Music's Avalon. He pops it on a dusty old turntable.

He lights some candles, sets a bouquet of flowers in a vase, sprinkles rose petals on the bed. He looks around, taking in his handiwork, then lets out a long, contented sigh.

SPIKE
There. All ready.

Meep! That looks a damned sight more effective than the fakeout stakeout, doesn't it? Holy crap! I'm glad they cut it (I mean, a stun gun. Really?), but the Roxy Music and rose petals are a nice touch.
