Knitting Needles :: an AU S2 Spike ficlet.

Mar 16, 2011 03:25

Title: Knitting Needles
Author: fenderlove
Rating: PG-13.
Summary: During an AU School Hard, Anne waits for her son to return from Sunnydale High's Parent-Teacher Night.
Notes: This is a sorta sequel to Apron Strings. I plan on writing more of these stand-alone ficlets when I get the time, but I'm not totally sure if it will turn into a series or not.

( Onwards to the ficlet. )

I'm really enjoying thse--and actually feeling a little sorry for Dru. Imagine having the MIL from hell forever!

Yeah, I don't think Anne is able to see things from Dru's perspective (then again, who can?). XD

I'm glad you like the ficlets! :D Now if only I could stop getting sidetracked by plot bunnies and actually finish posting a longer series. XD

I just watched "Lies My Parents Told Me" again yesterday, and the expression on Dru's face when William says his mum will join them is priceless.

Hehe, yes! Her expression seems to say, "WTF? What have I gotten myself into?" Well, you have to expect that any young man who uses "Mother is expecting me" as an excuse not to be alone with a beautiful woman is going to be a mama's boy. XD

This is a great concept!

Thanks so much! :D

William might not have enjoyed being perpetually four years old for all eternity, but it would have saved Anne years of listening to his coupling with Drusilla. And he had been absolutely precious at that age.

Oh! Anne is a nasty piece of work, isn't she, even without the oedipal issues.

This is so interesting! She hasn't found a suitable vampire consort in all this time? I suspect Angel should guard his virtue! Hee!

Thank you! Haha, I'm currently plotting an alternate timeline to see where this is going. I'm flying blind, my friend.

Lovely, I can't wait for Anne to meet the Scoobie gang.

Now I want Anne to meet Joyce and commiserate over wayward children and then turn her when she gets sick because Anne remembers what it was like...

fenderlove March 16 2011, 19:30:47 UTC

I'm not going to say if Anne and Joyce meet... Not going to say it at all. ^_~

Thanks for reading! I'm having a lot of fun with Not!Spike William. XD

Thank you! I probably shouldn't be so mean to Dru. I love her! But Anne doesn't!

Do you know what started all this? I found this photo of Caroline Lagerfelt, and I just got a case of the plot bunnies.
