Disclaimer: Not mine. Just playing in Joss' sandpit. With Buffy. And Spike and Giles on the swings. Get it? I'm dreaming!

"Clem?"

"Yeah?"

"Look, I'm sorry. I wasn't. in control."

"No. Buffy was. She wanted it. I can accept that."

{I can see why, too. Not all demons are gay, but I've swung both ways before. Angel is attractive.}

"I went with it."

[What did Buffy see is this guy? He's wrinkly, and ugly, and when he smiles. he's attractive. Huh?]

"You could hardly help it. I can't."

{I think anyone who can resist Angel for long deserves an award.}

"Maybe it's her Slayer power."

[What am I thinking? Angelus might have have raped William, but only because. (( He's beautiful. Dru's brought this idiot home, and I'm finding him beautiful. Maybe the girl has taste. Perhaps I should.)) and oh, I did. So often, because he was beautiful. And so is Clem.]

"Perhaps."

"Angel?"

"Yes?"

{Don't be daft, Clem. Don't ask.}

"What you said when you were Angelus? Did you mean it?"

[Is Xander's hormone overdose infectious-no more pictures like that. None. Dear God, what did I say? Best to know the truth, I suppose.]

"What about?"

{You shouldn't have said it- but I have to know. It's such a downright great idea.}

"About a threesome. You, me, her."

[Classic Angelus. More bad pictures, too. Liam should never have- two fours are eight, three fours are twelve, four floors are a long way up, five floors are for having sex on. I'm two and a half centuaries old. I should have control of myself. I should not be.]

"I might. Did you want me too?"

{Yes? No? Don't just stand there, say something.}

"Yes."

[Yes! Control, Angel. Do not lean- but he's leaning and. kissing is bad.]

{Vampire! Buffy! Bad! Umm.}

[Good, actually. In a purely objective way. Very, very good.]

{Good. She kissed him, I think we should have fair turns, and she did, with him, just once, and Giles said his soul would stick, and.}

[If Buffy finds us. my trousers are already down. We'll just have to ask her to join in.]

"Oh! Yes! More, please, don't stop."
