'Running Up that Hill' by Quinara [PG; ~750 words]

[quinara]

This is for the prompt Suddenly the Oldest in the Nightclub, and is set in a London-based post-series universe where Dawn is either living with Buffy and Spike or just visiting. There's not much more to the set-up than that! It's meant to be a comedy, although it might need a warning for hipsters.

Poor Buffy. maybe with time and therapy she can make an assisted transition from trendy to classic. *g*

[quinara]

They do say that therapy can work wonders...

[bogwitch]

Especially retail therapy!

[quinara]

Clearly the sequel to this is Buffy flexing her pension with a Selfridges personal shopper... Though I don't know if anyone would read that but me.

[bogwitch]

I think you'd be surprised.

[quinara]

I think Buffy would be into the rise and rise of Mary Katrantzou. Hmm... What prompts have we got again?

[bogwitch]

You know where I left them.

I forgot to comment on the title. LOL.

[quinara]

I'm not sure I really have a story. Or Spuffy. Or anything, really, apart from a long browse through the Selfridges website on Buffy's behalf...

:D I actually need to get to know/remember some other Kate Bush songs besides that and Wuthering Heights.

[bogwitch]

You could try and bend it to fit one of the actual prompts? What I have is not even Spuffy or for any of the prompts.

Kate Bush is awesome.

[quinara]

I think it would fit Re-Finding Yourself... But I think the only fic that could happen was some sort of ironic thing about shopping being like a spiritual retreat. I'd probably be better off with a picspam.

*nods*

Sounds like a plot to me.

[quinara]

Yes, but not one I can be arsed to write...
