BtVS Double Drabble: Not Themselves
Title: Not Themselves
Fandom: BtVS
Author: badly_knitted
Characters: Buffy, Giles, Joyce.
Rating: PG
Spoilers/Setting: Band Candy.
Summary: All the adults in Sunnydale seem to have regressed into teenagers.
Written Using: The dw100 prompt ‘Out Of Character’.
Disclaimer: I don’t own BtVS, or the characters. They belong to the wonderful Joss Whedon.
A/N: Double drabble.
The whole of Sunnydale seemed to be acting out of character, the adults at least. Principle Snyder dancing at the Bronze had been weird enough, but this was way worse.
Giles was being decidedly un-Giles; Buffy scarcely recognised him without his stuffy tweed suit and tie. He was dressed instead in jeans and a t-shirt, cigarettes rolled into the sleeve. His glasses were gone and even his hair looked different. He might have stepped right out of that movie her mom loved so much, the one with John Travolta; Grease, that was the one.
It might have been a little less disturbing if he wasn’t currently making out with her mom, but as he was… Buffy felt a sudden, overpowering desire to bleach her eyeballs; there were some things a teenage girl should never have to witness, and her mom snogging her watcher who also happened to be the school librarian had to be right at the top of that list. What were they thinking? And they thought SHE was irresponsible! At least she did as they told her. Mostly.
They weren’t listening to her though; all they wanted was to act like teenagers. When had she become the parent?
The End
