Love this. One of Spike's talents is finding everone's vulnerable spot and slipping the verbal knife in.

And I also like that as usual, Spike's not completely right. The scene where Buffy thanks Giles was very true to their relationship.

Yes, Spike is definitely good at finding people's weak spots and going after them. It's why he was so successful during 'The Yoko Factor'. As much fun as having him needle Giles was, I also didn't want to leave Giles hurting like that. It's a sign that Buffy is growing up that she did remember to thank Giles.

Thanks so much for reading!

Oh poor Spike! But that's a wonderful little interlude into s4. I love the idea of Spike and Buffy watching cartoons together.

Spike is not a happy vampire...being chained up and having to watch cartoons with the Slayer. I'm so glad you liked it.

I loved this! A cranky Spike, a crafty Giles. Spike tried to go for Giles' jugular the only way he could, but Giles got the last laugh (or at least smile) in the end!

Hee! Yes, Spike used the only weapon he had, and almost won, but Buffy proved him wrong at the end.
