After the Deluge - chapter 2

[gillo]

The second chapter of what looks as if it will be another three or four chapters in total. None of the rest is ready to post, though it will be by the time the seasonal_spuffy free-for-all day opens.

Chapter one was here.

This chapter is rated G, though there is a little justifiable violence.

I haven't been sitting around waiting for this chapter and eating chocolate. Noooo, not at all :) Wonderful! Post-Chosen Spuffy! My very, very favourite. You nailed Andrew completely there; I always wondered how he EVER managed to keep his own counsel as he is such a gossiper, and this is exactly how it would have happened. I'm now desperate for more, thank you!

[gillo]

I love you and want to have your babies! There will be more, I promise, but it will have to wait a little while.

This the famed Hallowe'en chocolate? You'll have to buy more for next week, won't you/

[spikesdeb]

I can wait...

...I have chocolate...

Yes. It's the Halloween chocolate. I thought I could resist, but no. A Curly Wurly makes my heart miss a beat and it's ages since I've had one. And they're only little bitty ones so I don't feel as guilty :)

I'll have to revisit the Co-op. Ooooh! I can get treacle toffee while I'm there! *loves Halloween*

I understand the need for a Curly Wurly late at night. Though for me a Crunchie is the ultimate.

Remember, if it's from the Co-op it's Doing Good. Thus, calorie-free. Honest.

This is terrific. Very atmospheric start and I loved Buffy trying to tune Andrew out before he made his little blunder. I haven't read much Spuffy recently but I can't wait for more of this.

Comics, what comics *g*.

[gillo]

Thank you. Allowed to run on, Andrew would always spill the beans, however Top Secret. Who wouldn't tune him out, though?

her cookies finally were cooked. He was still the dream of her youth, dark, gorgeous, sexy. But how had she ever put up with that brooding? How, indeed, had she ever thought it was a sign of a deep character? She’d left town with a certain amount of relief in the end.

Burnt cookies evidently.

“This is your last chance, Andrew. The next move I make you will be swimming. If you can swim - and, frankly, I don’t give a damn whether you can or not right now.”

Ten minutes later, Andrew was forgotten. There was another target for her fury. Another familiar target. And Rupert Giles was not going to enjoy the meeting she was planning.

Run Rupert run!!

[gillo]

Burnt cookies evidently.

*g*

Rupert needs to be helped to see the light, I feel.

Thanks for reading!

But how had she ever put up with that brooding? How, indeed, had she ever thought it was a sign of a deep character? <-- I want to kiss you for this one!

Good beginning. I'm enjoying this :D

[gillo]

Thank you!

Yes, I don't think this fic is exactly Bangel-friendly! *gg*

[shapinglight]

Heh! I wouldn't want to be in Giles's shoes when Buffy catches up with him.

[gillo]

No, few would...

Thanks for reading.
