Not Fade Away
The Death of Dreams
He wondered what it would be like not to have that constant thrum skittering under his flesh. That hunger that threatened to spire out of control.
And he'd think someday.
But then he turned Dru and Darla loose. Didn't save Cordy. Sold out his friends.
He's done some good. But his missteps far outweighed anything else.
When they ask him to sign away the shanshu in blood to prove his loyalty, he doesn't hesitate. Redemption isn't something that's ever going to be offered to him.
So he might as well die trying to make the world a tiny bit safer.
