breakmychestAnd just like that, no more Dru. Can't say I'll miss her, exactly, but I'd have liked it if she could've graduated. I mean, we had fun, back in the bad old days. Not saying I'd go back to being an evil killer. There's the soul-crushing guilt keeping me from that, and besides, I like being a hero. I'm way better at it than I ever was at being the Big Bad.
[He's quiet for a moment.]
Still, before she turned me, I was a bloody pathetic poofter. People were calling me "William the Bloody" started before I died, you know, and it wasn't because of anything violent. It was because my poetry was so bloody awful.
[Why did he say that? Spike doesn't tell anyone that. He had more to say, but he just shuts off the journal before he can. He's afraid of what might come out.]

no subject
Date: 2011-03-11 06:48 pm (UTC)Well, it would have been nice to know!
So you wrote poetry? What was it about? Was it love poetry?

I've had a HORRIBLE lag for tags this week.

no subject
Date: 2011-03-17 05:29 pm (UTC)Pretty good! Lots of people are pretty nice. I mean, like, even some of the inmates. They're pretty cool.
Oh! And, dude! There are comic book characters here! Like, people who are fiction where we're from! How sweet is that?

no subject
Date: 2011-03-18 03:13 pm (UTC)Uhm, well, there's Superboy! I talked to him, that was pretty cool. And, uh, Eddie Brock! I think. But he's... different than the Venom I read in comic books. But I'm pretty sure he's still Venom. Because... well, he was pretty scary.

Date: 2011-03-14 08:37 am (UTC)Buffy is trying not to grin, but is failing horribly. It's obvious that she may have had a laughing session before turning on the video, as he cheeks are a little red still.. From all the laughing.]
Why am I not surprised? You think I would be.
[Private | Video]
Date: 2011-03-14 08:44 am (UTC)You could stand to be a bit surprised.
[Private | Video]
Date: 2011-03-14 08:51 am (UTC)[She snorts a little at his glare, then turns her head away, taking in a few deep breaths and calming herself with a quiet whooo sound.
Then she turns back, much less amused looking now, but still has a little smile.]
It's only fair, you getting to watch a TV show about my life before you met me, that I get this... [Oh no, the laughing is threatening to return.] .. Gem.
[She pauses, looking as if she suddenly had a big thought. Then the giggle-fest threatening to return fades away. Buffy looks more serious now, but she's still in good humor. She scrunches her eyebrows together.]
Actually. No. No it's still not fair.
[Private | Video]
Date: 2011-03-14 04:03 pm (UTC)Well, you were still an interesting person back then. I--
[He shakes his head.]
Could have been worse, I suppose. I'm not exactly looking to build my reputation as the big bad anymore. Still, it's far in the past, you know? Not something I want to tell everyone.
[Private | Video]
Date: 2011-03-19 12:00 pm (UTC)[Buffy smiles genuinely at all this.]
Nah, I'm just giving you a hard time. [And yes she did find and read the poem, and so did Dawn.]
[Private | Video]
Date: 2011-03-19 12:05 pm (UTC)[He glances up at her again at this and smiles back.]
I don't mind you knowing, you know? Just wish I could have made the choice to tell you, not have it come shooting out of me without any deciding happening on my end.

Date: 2011-03-19 12:10 pm (UTC)Hopefully I won't get the urge to confess something for all to see.
[Private | Video]
Date: 2011-03-19 12:16 pm (UTC)[Spike's kind of curious as to what she'd confess, but.]
It might help if you don't put anything up on the journals. That seems to be where it's coming from.
