“I didn’t wear stretchy pants for nothing."
Hee, that's the spirit :)
"She’d missed him most when she got horny after patrol, and didn’t that send the wrong message about her feelings for him."
Might be a correct message
"the face of a melted welly"
amazing image, well done, Spike
"She regaled her customers with visions of a marvelous future, after which Spike stepped in and held the victim still while Dru chortled about how it was her future that was so wonderful, not theirs. Then they would eat..."
omg. Headcanon accepted!
“Stonehenge here"
hee!
"The only sounds in the room were the whirr of the fan and the click of Madame Margareta’s long nails toying with her necklace."
Love the detail.
“He is vampire"
Oleksiy's refusal to acknowledge the concept of articles is stirring up all too real flashbacks of how some of my colleagues use English as a second language. :D Feels realistic! And I like that his English is mostly correct (if awkward) apart from that. Nice touch that Oleksiy and Margareta don't use contractions -- the English I learned at school was like that at first.
“You’re the seer?”
“People have expectations"
EXCELLENT *g*
Honestly, when will the baddies learn not to gloat? They are VERY sure their plan can't be stopped.
"Oleksiy was moving, grabbing Spike by the collar, hauling him toward the door"
amazing, O. is his own bouncer, technically
"She was about to get blindsided by whatever Margareta planned.
Spike grinned. Good. Bint deserved it."
Ahahahaha, good old season 4...
"Telling Buffy what he’d heard wouldn’t have an effect on the outcome. It would only serve to score him points so he could live to fight another day."
He's so selfish and scheming, I love it!
