Title: Nyctophobia,
or When Buffy met Damon

Author's Notes: I guess I should explain what a drabble is for those who
don't know. A drabble is a story written in 100 words – a little more or a
little less. I consider any story that's around 200 words a double drabble and
anything more than that (1000 words max for me) an evolved drabble. Those are
just my own rules. You approach it how you see fit. I may write more of these.

"I don't think I get your drift," he smirked at her.
She rolled her eyes at him. "You must have slept through Vampire Slaying 101. Let me clue you in. This is the part where you die because that's what vampires do when the sun hits them."
Damon looked thoughtful for a moment before saying, "Funny, a vampire hunter in St. Louis told me the same thing last week, but she didn't say it quite so eloquently." He raised an eyebrow at her.
"Are you mocking me?"
