Deliciously creepy! And I'm assuming that Dru isn't the decorator Spike ate? *g*

Very festive - Drusilla style. She should have her own House and Garden TV show.

Thanks! I think he got some Greenwich Village type in NY around the time he killed Nikki, but that's just a guess.

I can see it now: "Did you know that livers can be sliced and unfolded to make the most lovely blood roses for a centerpiece?"

This is Dru-riffic! You really captured her voice and her gruesome whimsy!

I love this one! Such a grasp of Drusilla and Spike. They're a favorite of mine, but I'd never be able to write her. And such an eye for the gruesome details, you painted such a bloody picture. It was all really, really great.

I saw above this is the first time you've written Drusilla. For the sake of all of us, I do hope you'll continue.

Thanks! I do love them! I'm very glad you enjoyed the fic and this Dru - I hope she speaks to me again!

Is it bad that my main reaction to this is, "Aww, that's so sweet"? And yet, it is. I love Spike realizing that this is a problem -- then joining right in the decorating because it makes her happy. And the fact that she's doing it for him is great; too much Spike/Dru fic has the affection mostly one-sided, and it's nice to see Dru returning the feeling and the effort.

Thanks! I don't think it's bad that you find it sweet - I always see their relationship like that: kind of romantic in a very gross way yet still romantic. It's great to hear you liked it!
