Notes: Heh. My inner biologist was all over this one. Everyone knows that the scientific name of the common skunk is Mephitis mephitis, right? Takes place sometime in Season 5, after Spike and Buffy have formed their uneasy alliance.
"Ugh!" Buffy decapitated the demon, but not before it sprayed her. Tears pouring from her blinded eyes, she stumbled to Spike's crypt and staggered inside.

"Bloody hell, Slayer!" Spike leaped across the room as the stink overwhelmed the small space. A grin crept across his face. "You found a Mephitic Demon?"

"I guess so," Buffy said faintly.

"Well, we'll have to bury your clothes and give you a tomato juice bath. It's the only way."

Buffy whined and started stripping. Spike's grin widened. This wasn't exactly the way he wanted to see the Slayer naked...but he would take it.
