This was lovely! You got the emotions down just right, and I could practically feel the heat. I enjoyed very much.

We bite people. And then the Slayer kills us."

"Vampires do a good many things. Your mum's not going to kill you, love. You left the berk still breathing, after all. If barely." There was a note of something like pride in his voice.

Now I'm all atwitter to know the particulars of that bite. Of course, you've left all sorts of things to our imaginations with this. Cruel mistress. This was wonderful stuff, the device of Candy not knowing the whole story a perfect echo of our own imperfect understanding, as it always is in life.

I've got an idea or two about what happened, but for this particular story, I thought that leaving it ambiguous worked better. :)

Very enjoyable :-) I loved the atmosphere, and the 'mystery' element to the story, and your characterisation of Spike.
