Notes: What would a "Fool for Love" anniversary be without any bloody awful poetry? :) To make sure we have at least a little of that, here's a tiny little limerick (which is also the longest piece of fiction I've completed in the last three months, yay!).

I love it! So cute! It sounds just like Spike, you got his voice perfect!

[thenewbuzwuzz]

Aww, thank you! That might be because I stole two of his canon lines.

He's neither a man nor a demon.
He's becoming my personal champion.
Out saving the day,
in his own special way,
he keeps making my feels for him deepen.

YAY! *claps* Love the way "deepen" rhymes not only with the end of "demon" and "champion" but also with the start of "demon" and the middle of "champion". And all those ee sounds in the last line. *snuggles them*

One girl and a lively cadaver
were enemies, allies, and lovers.
Their battles endured
but slowly matured
to the fine art of hogging the covers.

Ha ha, I love how you connected those last two lines to Spike's canon description of Buffy. Both the train of thought as well as rhyming doer with woo her are very Spike-like!

[thenewbuzwuzz]

Thanks! :D A one-track train of thought, as it were.

It wouldn't be FFL day without a poem! Love your limerick! Spike, oh Spike, a demon bar is not the right place but you're adorable for thinking so. :o)

[thenewbuzwuzz]

Aww, thank you! :)

What a fun poem! "... the right place to woo her." So much something Spike would probably think was a good plan. Well done!

Thank you! :))
