Buffy and Anya both had brooms and were swatting the leaping bunnies away. They stood on a table in one of the furnished rooms of the paper doll house back to back. Julian was leaning, half in shadow, in the corner enjoying the show.
One rabbit had bitten a hole right through Buffy's leather pant leg. Buffy gave up on being nice to the things ever since.
Anya, on the other hand was cowering in her purple knee length dress and little black heels. She had begun pleading with Julian. "Well, you know, Buffy is very stubborn, she would be hell to live with... I guess that doesn't clear anything up seeing that you are a hell spawn yourself. Have you ever considered dating Vengeance demons. You know, I can be all demon, or all woman. If not, I'll stay here with you and we can have lots and lots of sex! Many times a day and in many different positions. Just please, make these bunnies go away!"
Julian continued to grin. Buffy guessed it was because he liked the idea, or he found the look of pure disgust on Buffy's face humorous.
"Come on Julian, how do you solve the attack bunny nightmare, this is ridiculous?" Buffy asked him.
"That would be telling." Julian mocked.
"Give in now and they will all disappear." Anya glared at Buffy. "Oh come on. It can't be that bad. At least he isn't an ugly, slimy worm demon. He has human form, and come on look at him!"
"I've seen him, I'm trying not to. It makes it harder." Buffy pouted. Even though she tried not to think about it, and all her better judgment told her it was not real, she was beginning to like him. He was kind of likable in all his moodiness and evil kidnapping schemes, and Dawn was safe so she knew her worse nightmare, losing her last family member (that she actually still had contact with), would not include her real sister.
