on 2005-04-19 06:58 pm (UTC)INFO: Connor, Post-“NFA”
PROMPT: Connor's reactions post Not Fade Away
It was all gone. Everyone had insisted he stay away from Los Angeles but he just couldn’t. He had to know.
And that night he went, when he saw the rubble, the debris that looked so different when seen on TV, he wanted to cry. There could be no way anyone had survived, especially those who fought and won the battle.
He tried to remember where Wolfram & Hart had stood and as he approached, he saw a moving hand. The minute he could make out the ring on the finger he ran, relief flooding through him.
Angel had survived, and that was all that mattered.

PROMPT: Ride back to the office after the opening flamethrower scene in A Whole In The World. Fred, Wesley, Angel, Spike
As long as Fred held the bug, no one really wanted to get close to her, but, because Wesley loved her, he did.
“You’re sure it’s dead?”
“Would I lie to you?”
“Well…”
Fred swatted him with her free arm. “I love you like pancakes, Wesley, but…” She stopped. “Haven’t said that in a while.”
“Said what?” Spike said, turning around from the passenger seat.
“’Love you like pancakes.’ Used to say it to my Daddy all the time.” She smiled. “Anyway, sooner we get to the lab—“
“Sooner you’ll get that stinking bug out of my car?” Angel said.
“Yes, Angel,” she said, laughing.

on 2005-04-19 07:28 pm (UTC)Dear Journal,
It’s been how many years since I overheard Buffy and Giles talking about vampires in the school library? Yeah, I don’t know either. Too damn many I suppose.
The new slayers keep coming and going like yesterday’s news; good thing, because the evil, the monsters, they never stop.
And to beat all, Giles was called back to England for an emergency Council meeting, leaving me in charge of two Slayers, who are in charge of the newbie’s in training. Like either one of them have *ever* listened to me.
Just another day Watching, the only thing I’ve ever really been good at.

"You know," Giles says nervously, undoing his trousers, "rabbits honk as a sign of affection. It's a sort of, ah --" He clears his throat and makes an odd noise in his throat. "That sort of thing."
"Nice. You been practising?"
Giles notices that Xander's trousers are still done up, and frowns. "No."
"Huh." Xander pulls them down, his boxers with them, and says nervously, "Just so you know? Me either."
"This is probably an error in judgement," Giles says, taking off his glasses.
"Probably," Xander agrees, and takes the glasses from him, putting them on the nightstand and turning off the light.

Pairing: Buffy/Connor
Rating: PG-15
Disclaimer: The Buffyverse belongs to Joss Whedon and company.
Notes: Written for llaras for doyle_sb4’s Buffyverse drabbleathon. Set post-Not Fade Away.
She knew that it was wrong on so many levels but being with him brought her closer to Angel. It wasn’t as if Connor didn’t know that her lust for him was because of his father, he seemed resigned to the fact that he would always walk in his father’s shadow. Especially now that he had died while bringing down Wolfram and Hart. As she leaned into him, she couldn’t help but wish that he were Angel and not just his son. But there was something about him that drew her to him, and she wondered if she had the choice, which of the two she would pick.

Angel killed his sire for… a Slayer? Intrigued, Lindsey flipped to the relevant section. A photograph of the Slayer leapt off the page and burned itself into his brain. Hot damn, but she was beautiful.
Not that it mattered, of course. She was the love of Angel’s unlife and that made her a weapon. He would hone her into the stiletto that crippled Angel.
And if that process led Lindsey into her bed, so much the better.

on 2005-04-19 09:09 pm (UTC)"What if I said I wanted them all dead?"
Spike clutched his last crumpled cigarette. "I'd say you weren't the real Angel."
"What if I said I'd lost it. Hope. Because I let the mission go, and I didn't want them to see me fail."
"You're lying."
Angel was in front of him, close, breathing heavy, staring into his eyes, through them. "Maybe."
"Why?" Angel's lips smashed into his, sharp teeth making him bleed. Suddenly Spike's cheek was scraping the debris, bone feeling pain through flesh; Angel was his second-skin, and in his ear.
"Because lies are the only thing that keep me going."

on 2005-04-19 09:53 pm (UTC)Drabble+ set mid S4.
Buffy hadn’t expected to see Giles and Spike yelling at each other.
Okay, that was a lie.
She just hadn't expected green cloth, plastic figures and an old black and white film to be involved.
"He was bloody well offside!"
"I was there. I'm telling you he wasn’t."
"You couldn't have possibly been there. The match was played in daylight."
Spike looked slightly abashed. "Well, that's not the point."
Buffy decided now was a good time to intervene. "Hey guys."
"Ah, Buffy." Giles paused. "Spike and I were just debating the merits of audiovisual recordings as opposed to the memory of a deluded vampire who spent most of the sixties intoxicated."
"Deluded?"
"Manchester united fan."
“Guys? Soccer?"
"It's not soccer. It's football!"

on 2005-04-19 09:54 pm (UTC)“This must be like heaven for you, huh?” Xander said, taking a swig from his beer.
“Why’s that then?” Spike questioned, the beer making him feel well inclined towards the whelp.
“All these slayers everywhere, you have a fetish for them.”
“I do not have a fetish. You were with Anya for too long mate.”
“I’ve seen the way you look at Kennedy.”
“Reds new bird? Never heard anything so daft in my life. All two centuries of it.”
“If you insist,” Xander shrugged, “but I hear she has a tongue piercing.”
“Really!?” Spike bolted upright, “not that I care.”

on 2005-04-19 11:08 pm (UTC)When the sun came back, they left high school forever, and when the sun then slowly slipped down naturally, Giles was sitting on the bench in front of his flat, stinking of smoke and what could be several thousand gallons worth of mayor-turned-giant-snake-demon blood, watching the sun sink down into the ocean, thin whisps of clouds streaking pink and orange and yellow against the sky.
He slowly leaned back, his body aching with exhaustion, and smiled. "Beautiful," he whispered to himself. "Just beautiful."

on 2005-04-19 11:29 pm (UTC)Time Line – Post Chosen, Giles, Buffy & Dawn
Prompt – Laundry
Written for Essene
The one good thing about his new lifestyle, less Tweed to go to the dry cleaners. He was very happy to have Dawn and Buffy in London and was looking forward to introducing them to his lady friend tonight, hence the doing of the laundry.
“Need help with the folding, Giles?” Buffy asked as she and Dawn came in.
“No, almost done.”
“We can help,” Dawn insisted.
Buffy dived in and came up with a pair of silk boxers with Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side of the Moon” jacket art on them. She turned big eyes on him.
Giles just blushed.

on 2005-04-19 11:33 pm (UTC)She’s been obvious, right? Flirting, dropping by the library, asking for help with her English homework – hello, clear signals, much? And like she cares about the age thing.
So right before their graduation, when she corners Giles in the stacks and kisses him, she doesn’t know why he’s so surprised.
**
It’s the second time she’s dated a lead singer and she thinks, God, not only is she stuck in eternal minimum wage Sunnydale hell, she’s a groupie.
It’s not till next full moon that she realizes how deep she’s let Veruca get, all the way down into her blood.

on 2005-04-19 11:53 pm (UTC)Info: Fred/Tara, in an AU season 3 where Tara joined AI
Prompt: floating
Fred’s college roommate had a globe on her desk, one of the little ones with the magnets inside, so it floated in the air; she used to act like it was magic, and it drove Fred nuts. It was magnetism, was all.
With Angel and the guys out saving the world, Cordy resting from a vision, it’s Fred who helps Tara with her spells. Doesn’t matter that she spent five years in another dimension; first time she sees Tara float a feather she can hardly believe her eyes.
Clearing up, Tara smiles at her, and she thinks about magnetism again.

on 2005-04-19 11:54 pm (UTC)Title Gratitude
Summary: Post Orpheus Ats S4. Angel thanks Willow for restoring his soul.
A/N: Thanks to Dana for the idea. This will end up something longer because hey look Angel in Sunnydale during S7. So many fun and shiny things to do and see.
Willow shot a glare toward the stairs where three teenage girls were trying to maneuver themselves into a position to hear and not be seen. At that glare, the girls scattered.
“Sorry, they’re…well they range in age from 16 to 21, but put them together and they’re as bad as thirteen year olds.”
Angel shook his head. “It’s fine.”
“Anyway, all alone now,” Willow smiled then blushed. “I didn’t mean…I-I have a girlfriend and you…well you were Bu-I meant all alone as in no one to hear whatever it is you came to tell me.”
Angel smiled slightly. “Thank you.”

“My bed is big enough for two. Can I keep her?” She’s playful; almost childish.
“No, Dru. We’ve been through this. You’ll get one for you when we settle down,” his dark eyes are cold. He’s moody, probably tired and hungry.
“We never stay in the same city twice. I dream of a place called home,” she protests and decides to finish of the French whore that bleeds before her. It’s no use to let the velvety food go to waste.
“The world is our home,” he tells her, trying to be patient. Dru is only a newborn, after all.
