Do all the holidays around here involve kissing? Or just the fun ones? Because if I end up snogging strangers on bloody Arbor Day, I may stake myself.

So you noticed the major attitude check she seems to be in need of?

Yeah. She wanted to kill me even more than usual. And she looked different too. Same girl, of course, but... I don't know. Less soft.

Hopefully it'll be over in a week. Just like every other loss around here.

Let's hope. Then she can go back to her hating me in her normal way.

[this is the part where she's supposed to say something sympathetic and supportive, right?

.... yeah, she's got nothing]

Spike. Her loss is Angel. That automatically has you losing a lot of brownie points.

[Yeah, he... wasn't really expecting anything.]

I know. And don't get me started on how unfair that is. You'd think having her not remember my biggest rival would be a mark in the plus column, but no. Angel doesn't remember me, and it's not affecting his life all that much.

[a long beat]

Ever think you might be just a little too obsessed with everyone's favorite Slayer?

...well, yeah, obviously. This is nothing, though. You should have seen me a few years ago.

I'm kinda glad I didn't.

[another beat]

Look, Buffy isn't your Buffy -- if Buffy was ever even yours. She's way young for that. If she hates you, you're gonna have to just deal with it and move on.

What do you think I've been doing? Girl's got plenty of reasons to hate me, and I don't see myself convincing her otherwise. I hope I don't end up stuck here long enough that I've got the time to do it.

Doesn't mean I have to like it.

Just making a suggestion.

Yeah. It was a lot easier not to obsess over her when she was on a different continent.

Spike letsbe_clear February 18 2011, 00:45:45 UTC
I ... guess that would make things a little easier.
