    Summary

    “That girl of yours gave me a proper beating before I left,” Spike says.

    “She’s not my girl,” Buffy says.

    “You might not be hers, but she’s yours.”

    “Not so sure about that anymore.”

    “I’m sure. I’ve seen that look in myself—that high on Buffy Summers rot that ruins a man,” Spike says. “Or a woman, apparently.”

    “I’m so tired of ruining people,” Buffy sighs.

    Spike's face softens. “Buffy, I didn’t– I just mean you’re bloody brilliant and brilliance can be maddening.”

    “Just once I’d like to be unbrilliant,” Buffy says, frowning.

    Or: Faith, Buffy, and one night in an empty house.
