Wonderful, spot-on Spike voice. I'd like to Friend you, if that's all right.

Thank you! And you're very welcome to Friend (though I write a lot of silly Giles and not much tragic Spike, be warned!)

Beautifully touching and fitting!

*g* Thank you!

Thermopylae here we come.

Ha! I love that. So very Spike.

The verse about Fred made me a little teary.

A straw? Too thin a word for Fred:
A warrior born.

*sniffle*

*g* I like that contrast of heroism and self-mockery that Spike does so well. And he does sentiment too - especially for lost girls like Fred.

Thanks for commenting!
