----------------------------------
Buffy walks into the cave where Spike is being held by the Fake!Drusilla. And Ubervamp attacks her. She keeps right on walking...it doesn't matter that this is the thing that nearly killed her yesterday, today she is fueled by her passionate...hatred...of Spike. She must save him, because if he dies, who will she beat up for fun?
BUFFY: Where's my *hot ex-boyfriend*?
FANS: Since when have you been calling him your ex?
BUFFY: Since Joss came and ret conned the world.
FANS: But you said that you'd never-
BUFFY: Shut up!
--------------------------------------
Giles and Anya are sitting in an oracle's lair, waiting to get information on the First.
GILES: So...are you still a vengeance demon?
ANYA: No, well...maybe, that was never clear.
GILES: Well, just so long as you don't kill anything. Of course, even if you did kill people...we'd all forgive you. After all, it isn't like you are Spike.
ANYA: I don't see why Buffy trusts Spike enough to go save him. When it was *all about me* she was a total bitch.
GILES: Buffy is only clouded by that passionate...hatred...that she feels so Spike. By my count, the one way to know f Buffy truly loves you is if she *actually* kills you. Look at Angel...she killed him and she'll "never love anyone as much."
"Full of Grace" starts playing the background and Giles and Anya become teary-eyed thinking about everyone's favorite vampire who they haven't seen or heard from in over a year...ah, memories.
ORACLE: I have discovered the prophecy.
GILES: Well, please tell it to us now...if we're here in this hot, enclosed space any longer, I'll have to kiss Anya again...
ANYA: Ew, you're like my father!
GILES: Completely.
Even while saying this, Giles and Anya look at each other with lust in their eyes. Oh well, by this show's definition, when the characters yell at each other instead of forming an actual loving relationship, it usually means that they are destined. But that's just something from Marti's past...
ORACLE: The slayer must fall in love with a hot vampire named-
GILES: ANGEL!
ORACLE: No, Spike...Angel left. A long, long time ago.
GILES and ANYA: Hmph.
Not that Giles and Anya like, or even really know Angel very well. It's only their fear that Buffy could find actual happiness with someone like Spike that keeps them clinging to someone else's high school relationship.
ORACLE: The Slayer and Spike are meant to be together. They must combine their forces in order to save the world.
GILES: Hm, well, thank you very much. But I don't think we need to tell Buffy.
ORACLE: Yes you do.
GILES: Oh, screw saving the world! Spike is not to be trusted! I don't care how many times he's risked his life for us, or how many souls he sought out...he is not to come near my daughter...er, Buffy!
