Title: Propositions

Summary: At the end of Severin's arc (i.e., this is not directly post 9.3 but takes place sometime later in the season), Buffy ponders her track record with men and takes matters into her own hands.  900 words.

Awwwwwwww!

Favorite line: Not deformedly tall, so not really your type- SO TRUUUUE.

:D Thank you! So glad you liked that line! I don't think witty dialogue is usually my strong point, so I was particularly proud of that.

Dinner first! ¡Yaaaaaay!

So much win in this! Of course he thinks she's talking about everybody except him, and of course he gives her a small bit of grief before backing off into comfortable companionship - with pizza. And of course she was a sucker for a pair of pretty blue eyes. It worked in the past, right?

I predict smoochies. Mmmmmmm.

Thank you so much! I'm so glad you liked it and that his characterization worked for you. He wouldn't be Spike if he weren't a little snarky. :D

Mmm, Spuffy smoochies...

That's remarkably fluffy considering the dire circumstances. :)

“He had blue eyes,” said Buffy. “I like blue eyes.”

Schmoopy AND snarky at the same time! Yay! Great comeback line in this conversation.

Thank you! Fluff is pretty much all I'll write at 1:00 in the morning. Even the marginally angsty exposition of their fight only came about this morning in the Serious Light of Day. :) I figure Buffy's used enough to dire circumstances and fed up enough with her love life that she could jump straight to what really mattered, once she sorted it out.

“Could this white hat take you out to dinner first?”

I love that!

Their relationship's at such a hopeful point now. This time they're going to take it nice and slow, and it's going to be absolutely brilliant, and they'll live happily ever after gosh darn it!

[gryfndor_godess]

Thank you so much! I'm so glad you like that line! Usually I'm all about the angst and them taking two steps forward and one step back because they don't trust their feelings, but here I was like, It is the end of the season, they are tired of mincing around, they know what they want. :D

they'll live happily ever after gosh darn it!

Damn straight they will! :D

“Could this white hat take you out to dinner first?”
